Michelle + James

Michelle and James married!  What a privilege and joy to be a part of this day!  I’m so thrilled to finally post this wedding!  I’ve known these two from a previous wedding I photographed last year where Michelle was a bridesmaid.  I also get to complete another bucket-list as I get to photograph my first downtown Chicago wedding!  It only took 10 years but it’s so worth the wait and my affinity for old churches I got to photograph a beauty of a church!  Holy Name Cathedral Parish!  These guys had the most beautiful and perfect day with the family and friends to reflect that!  From funny and embarrassing stories to heart felt memories this day had it all!  They are two of the sweetest and kindest people to be around too and that makes it so worthwhile to be around and capture these sweet memories!  Thank you and Cheers!

Ally + Eric

I traveled north to a beautiful and small town Kewaunee, WI to capture Ally & Eric who got married last month!  I met Ally a few years back when I photographed her sister’s amazing wedding in Madison and I’m so grateful I could do it again in 2018!  I’m just blown away by the beauty of Wisconsin and all the little treasures that it has!  Kewaunee is just minutes away from my hometown Manitowoc and hidden and tucked away in this tiny town was this gorgeous machining warehouse, Lakehaven built by the beautiful and one of kind cream city bricks we Milwaukians all love.  The ceremony took place in a old and beautiful craftsmanship German Presbyterian Church with bronze bells that ring on your exit!  Sorry just nerding out on my two favorite things with old churches and Wisconsin history!  So glad to finally photograph these two on this beautiful and perfect August day and it was an absolute blast to be a part of!  These two met through mutual friends and hit it off right away.  After a few years later Eric proposed to Ally on their property.  The rest is history and so excited to see what the future has in store for these two!  Congrats!
