Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Naperville Wedding at Meson Sabika - Courtney & Joe
Courtney and Joe are truly the real deal. It was such an honor to capture their small ceremony in 2020 and it was incredible getting to capture their big reception surrounded by all their friends and family. It was truly a gift to witness this long awaited party and a gift to capture their wedding story in its entirety.
Where to start with Courtney and Joe? It’s been such a long, beautiful, joyfilled, yet bitter-sweet journey with these two. Between the pandemic, medical school residency, their engagement session, their small wedding ceremony and celebration with their closest family members in the fall of 2020, their grief over the loss of Joe’s beautiful mother shortly after, and planning their large wedding celebration ...these two have been through so much over the past two and a half years. Courtney said something that really stuck with us while we were chatting in between their portraits. She couldn’t imagine doing life over these past two years not being married to Joe. Isn’t that the truth?! We know we are with our soulmate when we can face life’s hardships just a little easier and are made stronger as one when the storm passes. That’s so beautiful. Courtney and Joe are truly the real deal. It was such an honor to capture their small ceremony in 2020 and it was incredible getting to capture their big reception surrounded by all their friends and family. It was truly a gift to witness this long awaited party and a gift to capture their wedding story in its entirety.

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Cafe Brauer Wedding - Meme & Matt
Meme & Matt’s Chicago wedding at the Cafe Brauer was classic, unfussy, sophisticated, intentional, and these two are SO MUCH FUN.
We were looking forward to this day for such a long time! Meme & Matt’s Chicago wedding at the Cafe Brauer was classic, unfussy, sophisticated, intentional, and these two are SO MUCH FUN. They truly know how to have a party! It was such a joy getting to capture them, and their friends and family. When we arrived at Cafe Brauer and saw that Entourage was all set up, we knew it was going to be the most perfect night. Meme & Matt, thank you for braving the snow, wind, and cold on your wedding day and for giving us the honor of capturing all the love! This one will most certainly go down in the books!

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Mayslake Peabody Estate Winter Engagement Session - Taylor & Pete
When Taylor and Pete contacted me, I was truly so excited to get to capture a winter session covered in white! Taylor, Pete, and their son met up with me at The Mayslake Peabody Estate and this setting truly didn’t disappoint.
I absolutely LOVE last minute snow engagement sessions! It’s so hard to nail down a session date in the winter when you’re waiting for that big snowstorm, so when Taylor and Pete contacted me, I was truly so excited to get to capture a winter session covered in white! Taylor, Pete, and their son met up with me at The Mayslake Peabody Estate and this setting truly didn’t disappoint. It’s always so fun to capture a venue or location that your familiar with but in a season that you don’t typically shoot there. These two truly earned their engagement photos, as it was one of the coldest days we’d had in a long time, but it paid off in the end. There’s just something so romantic and timeless about winter sessions! Thank you, Taylor & Pete, for the honor of getting to capture this beautiful season in your lives!
Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Cuneo Mansion and Gardens Wedding - Kelly & Matt
Kelly & Matt’s wedding day at Cuneo Mansion and Gardens was out of a dream. We’re talking straight out of “Father of the Bride”, grab a tissue, magical. From Kelly’s first look with her father down the staircase, to Matt seeing Kelly for the very first time as she walked down the aisle at her family’s church, to portraits at one of the most romantic settings in all of the Chicago Suburbs.

From Kelly’s first look with her father down the staircase, to Matt seeing Kelly for the very first time as she walked down the aisle at her family’s church, to portraits at one of the most romantic settings in all of the Chicago Suburbs. These two are amazing dancers, so capturing lots of dancing photos around the mansion was a must. Truly, it was one for the books. Not only was it beautiful to capture, but every location and moment had so much sentiment and emotion from beginning to end. We’re truly so honored to have been a part of this day and team. Speaking of team, getting to spend a day with Bethany Moore from Bethany Moore Events is always such a flawless experience. She is the perfect combination of organized, on top of every detail, while still cheering everyone along and making things happen behind the scenes so every other vendor can do what they need to do behind the scenes. It’s always a sigh of relief and a complete and totally luxury getting to show up with Bethany there. In case you can’t tell yet, we’re massive fans! We hope you enjoy all the sweetness from this day as much as we did. Matt & Kelly, we cannot thank you enough for the honor!

Capturing our brides getting ready in their childhood homes is such an honor. There is something so magical about being in the place that has made them into who they are today. I know that a house it just a house. It’s the everyday events, both mundane and monumental that holds something so sacred. It’s such an honor to be welcomed by our couples’ parents into their homes. We know we are complete strangers walking in and it has to feel vulnerable on so many levels as we enter with our cameras. Please know that your hospitality and warmth is not lost on us.
As a mother of little girls, these moments of capturing this time with mom while getting into the dress melt me every single time. Especially when you know there is so much goodness and love and resect there.
This series right here with Kelly and her darling flower girl are pure magic. Kelly was so sweet to take the time and make her feel special with her own twirling moments too.
Is this NOT the “Father of the Bride” staircase moment that every little girl DREAMS of?!?! Insert all the cry emojis right here please.
Cuneo Mansion and Gardens might be one of the most magical and etherial venues in all of the Chicago Suburbs. …Fun Fact: Did you know that many scenes from “My Best Friends Wedding” were shot here?!
These two LOVE to dance and they were so good at it! Love that they were up for it even though it was 100 degrees in an unconditioned portion of the mansion. They might be some of our most favorite moments from their day.
The most perfect way to cap off this magical day! …truth be told, these were actually captured outside on the balcony before the dance floor opened to Kelly & Matt’s guests. We always recommend scheduling sparkler photos before everyone gets busy on the dance floor. Your DJ or band will also greatly appreciate it.
Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Wilmette Beach Engagement Session - Samantha & Nick
Meet me at the beach with your dog and it’s a perfect recipe for a dreamy engagement session! It was so much fun to meet Samantha & Nick in person this summer to capture their lakeside engagement photos on Lake Michigan at Wilmette Beach.
Meet me at the beach with your dog and it’s a perfect recipe for a dreamy engagement session! It was so much fun to meet Samantha & Nick in person this summer to capture their lakeside engagement photos on Lake Michigan. The weather was perfection and the green and yellow tones that late summer brings us in the Midwest makes it one of my favorite times of the year to shoot. Samantha and Nick were so fun and easy going and we are so looking forward to getting to capture their wedding day this upcoming year! It is such an honor to have them as a part of our 2021/2022 wedding family!
As the weather begins to change and the green slowly begins to disappear, we’re getting caught up slowly but surely on sharing all the warm and sunny sessions this 2021 summer brought us. And with all the new locations we were introduced too, I’m already excited about more warm and sunny lakeside sessions next summer. We truly live in the most beautiful part of the country during the summertime and the beauty is not lost on us! For beautiful lakeside engagement session inspiration, keep scrolling below.
Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Wedding at The Pavilion Orchard Ridge Farms - Kristen & Chase
We started the day at The Goodwin Hotel and Iron Works Hotel for their getting ready photos. (Brides, if you’re looking for the most photogenic getting ready space for your wedding day, look no further than the Goodwin Hotel! We cannot get over how beautiful their space is. …with the most PERFECT rooftop for your first look.) Afterwards, we headed over to The Pavilion for their ceremony and reception…
We have been looking forward to this day for years! Literally! It’s been such a treat to get to work with Kristen and Chase ever since we met them during our first meeting. We know there has been great disappointment for our couples and their postponements, but getting to see everyone reunited this year and throwing the wedding day they’ve been dreaming of has been such a blast! These two were able to pull out all the stops and it truly was the dreamiest of days. We started the day at The Goodwin Hotel and Iron Works Hotel for their getting ready photos.

Truly, this venue is one of our absolute favorites. Kristen and Chase may have had one of the hottest and humid days of the year, but they were such troopers and we’d say beating the heat was well worth it for The Pavilion’s views. We’re truly sad that this day is over, but we’re so thankful for these two and the gift of getting to work with them over these past couple of years. Kristen & Chase, may you have a marriage that’s as beautiful as your wedding day! It’s been such a delight to get to know you and we’re so honored to have been a part of your wedding day team.

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Danada House Wedding - Krissy & Mike
Rainy days at the Danada House are our favorite! In our humble opinions, there isn’t a better place in all of the Chicago Suburbs to capture a rainy wedding day.
Rainy days at the Danada House are our favorite! In our humble opinions, there isn’t a better place in all of the Chicago Suburbs to capture a rainy wedding day. It might have been overcast all day long, but all was warm and sunny the moment we met up with Krissy. She was truly a dream bride in every sense with a Momma and bridesmaid tribe to match. The moment we entered her getting ready space, we were greeted with hugs and we knew it was going to be a dream of a day. Krissy and Mike are truly two of the most down to earth, joyful, genuine, and easy going lovebirds we’ve ever had the privilege of capturing.
Krissy and Mike’s color scheme was filled with blushes, blues, pinks, corals, greens, white, and grey. (All of our favorite summer colors) Their colors brightened up their day so beautifully that we forgot all about the weather outside.
These two were troopers and even stepped outside from under our covering with their umbrellas for a few photos. After following the weather all morning, they made the call to bring their outdoor ceremony indoors and it was still romantic, luminous, and joy-filled. Sometimes everything works out for a better reason. It was such a joy to relive this day and an honor to have been a part of such a wonderful team. Thank you, Krissy & Mike, for gift of getting to be a part of your wedding team! This one is going down in the books!

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Haley Mansion Wedding - Mary & Steve
We are the biggest fans of The Haley Mansion, but add the most joyful bride and her wonderful crew and it’s a recipe for perfection. Mary and Steve’s color scheme were a treat to capture! We’ll forever be fans of blushes, whites, and creams! Even her cutting cake and macaroons by Millett’s Cakes, bridesmaid dresses, and florals by Steen perfectly complimented one another!
This day was full of LIFE and SO MUCH BEAUTY! Mary and Steve tied the knot on July 3rd, 2021 and it couldn’t have been a more perfect day. This was a postponed wedding, but we think every single bit of it was worth the wait!

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Naperville Wedding - Rachel & Andrew
Rachel and Andrew have known each other since they were just kids. They were high school sweet hearts and this day was pure hometown nostalgia from beginning to end. After their beautiful outdoor ceremony at the Naperville Country Club, we even made a pitstop at Naperville Central High School for a quick photo op! This day was beautiful from beginning to end, but what REALLY made this day even more than their beautiful details and locations like the Morton Arboretum was their joy, their kindness, their families, and the way they never stopped smiling at each other. (Seriously guys, they have the BEST smiles.) Their joy and happiness was truly contagious and we couldn’t help smiling all day too. However, we cried crocodile tears when it came to the speeches given at the end of the night by their family members. What a gift to love and to be loved so well. They made us feel like a part of their families by the end of the night and it was an absolute GIFT to have gotten the honor of capturing all of them.

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Cantigny Park Engagement Session - Rebecca & Talen
This weekend, Illinois was showing off for us. Cantigny Park is one of those local locations that I could never get bored of. So, between the weather, the light from this past weekend, and getting to know Rebeca and Talen a little bit better during their engagement session, it was such a beautiful reminder of what a gift this job is.
We’ve been waiting more than a year for an evening like this one. I’m talking even beyond what 2020 was. Every February, when we think about packing up and moving South to warmer temps, it’s evenings like this one that keep us here. It’s our lush green parks, the most beautiful summer golden hours, and the kindest Midwestern couples that keep us put in this neck of the woods. I love engagement sessions because they really do give me a chance to get to know our couples before the big day and start building a relationship, trust, and confidence before we arrive on their wedding day full speed ahead. When I headed down to the Wheaton area for their engagement session at Cantigny Park, one of the very first things they told me was that they really “weren’t picture people”. Anytime one of our couples tells me that, it’s music to my ears. It means their genuine personalities and laid back attitudes will be a treat to capture. There won’t be any extra layers that we have to shed to get down to what really maters about our time together. Their connection with each other won’t be overshadowed by any extra productions.Couples who don’t consider themselves “picture people” are our kind of people!

After getting to spend an evening with these two, I’m more than hopeful about the year ahead and beyond. Rebecca and Talen, we cannot wait for your big day!

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Chicago Autumn Wedding - Sarah & Scott
This was our very last wedding of 2020 and I can’t think of a better way to have capped it all off. Sarah & Scott were absolutely amazing navigating all the changes just days before their wedding as the Chicago area began shutting back down again. Many of their plans may have changed, but it didn’t seem to phase them or the joy and celebration that was October 31st, 2020. They decided on changing their reception space to a small intimate gathering with their closest family and friends at a friend’s beautiful home in the suburbs. It truly was such an honor to capture and witness such a sacred day. 2020 has changed how we see weddings and it’s all been because of the most incredible couples this year who decided that their love couldn’t be canceled. We celebrate Sarah & Scott. Their attitudes, their joy, their ability to roll with all the punches 2020 may have brought their way. If every couple can get through the challenges of what 2020 brought and still decide to tie the knot regardless what what or how they envisioned their day to be, then we truly believe they’re going to be able to weather the storm. Because marriage isn’t perfect. It’s full of a few unseen 2020’s. But, it’s about the commitment to saying yes every single day even if the circumstances surrounding you aren’t perfect. …and even though Sarah & Scott’s plans may have changed, we think it turned out even more perfect than the original plan. These two are the real deal and they showed every bit of that during this season. We respect and appreciate them both! Enjoy all the beauty from their perfect day!

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Autumn Chicago Elopement - Emily & Brandon
Emily and Brandon are two of the most lovely humans we’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. These two had a wedding scheduled for April of 2020. They were the first couple we figured this all out with and I cannot begin to express how thankful we are to still get to work with them this upcoming year as they celebrate with more of their friends and loved ones. To say that they handled this last year in stride and grace is an understatement . We have SO MUCH respect for them. Their kindness and their communication as we just simply took last spring day by day. They decided on an intimate elopement this past fall and they tied the knot in Chicago surrounded by their very closest family members. It was beautiful. Their joy wasn’t squelched by the pandemic, and we’re beyond excited to get to keep them with us this upcoming year. For now, enjoy all the beauty and joy from their first wedding celebration!

This wedding day was a Midwest Autumn dream. The leaves were a perfect orange and it was right before they all fell. Marc & Kelsey were cool, calm, and collected despite the rain that poured from beginning to end. These two are the most perfect example of how romantic and beautiful a rainy wedding day can be if you’re willing to embrace it! The Danada House is also a perfect example of how perfect a rainy day can be there. We used their awning and porch for almost all of their portraits and grabbed a few umbrellas for more by the trees. It was just perfect and such a dream to have gotten to spend it with these two kind souls. Their entire day was a joy and smooth sailing thanks to Bethany Moore Events.

For Chase Kristen, it was a no brainer as to where they wanted to capture their Engagement photos.

And triple points for taking out the boat for a few more photos to end the night on.

This day was exactly what I needed to relive on this cold and grey January day.

If what you give out truly comes back to you someday, then these two have a whole lot of goodness coming their way. Truly two of the warmest, kindest, joy-filled people we’ve ever had the gift of coming across.

What a treat to relive this day all over again. Geoff & Kristen’s story is so beautiful and unique and we are beyond honored to have had the privilege of getting to capture this outrageously beautiful day. Every moment of the day was planned with so much intention and honor towards their story, loved ones, and family. Kristen and Geoff are surrounded by the most incredible tribe who came together to celebrate them and it’s clear that they couldn’t be more adored. The joy and laughter filled us to the brim and it’s even a blessing to have relived this day to share with you all today. Their lakeside ceremony and tented reception was equally beautiful, elegant, and relaxed. Lawn games filled the grounds and the sweetest littles filled the resort running, playing, and enjoying every moment with their families. It just doesn’t get any more delightful than this. Kristen & Geoff, your family is beautiful and we’re so thankful to have gotten to capture it! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
