Val + Mike found the perfect blend of classic wedding stuff and their own personal style and senses of humor at their Lincolnshire Marriott Resort wedding.

Ben + Danielle’s Theater on the Lake wedding wasn’t just amazing because of their outdoor lakeside ceremony, or their energetic dance floor- it was all in the details.

Stephanie + Ray had such a lovely summer wedding at the Hyatt Regency O’Hare, surrounded by their loving family and friends.

Lindsey + Cody are equal parts laid back and organized, which makes them incredibly dreamy for a wedding photographer like me!

Before Ryann even arrived to her first look with Bo on the gorgeous, rolling grounds of the Leroy Oaks Forest Preserve, Bo was already in tears.

A soft breeze, and plenty of sunshine: the kind of weather you dream of for an outdoor ceremony!

Garfield Park Conservatory is a special place for Michelle + Richard. In addition to it being Michelle’s favorite place on earth, GPC was also the place of many of their dates in the summers, many afternoon strolls in the winters, and where Richard finally asked Michelle to be his wife

Sarah and Nick have been together for years and have come across their fair share of obstacles, so it makes sense that all they really wanted for their wedding day was to celebrate the life they’ve built together with their loved ones surrounding them, and their dog, Gus. When those are your priorities, you can find a way to make any wedding tradition your own, and to completely do it all your way. Sarah and Nick did just that with their colorful punk rock Chicago wedding.
