WELCOME TO The BLOG! 

A MIDWEST WINTER WEDDING We love a couple who stays true to themselves and knows what’s most important to them on their big day! Michael and Abigail had so much fun and brought the day to life with laughter the whole time! There was such an excited buzz in the bridal suite as the girls […]

This day started with Kaylee greeting us at the door of Marlene’s Event Barn, lots of hugs and “the day is finally here!”. It seems like we were just eating ice cream at their engagement session, (one of my all time favorites and not just because it involved ice cream!) and now here we are. […]

To say this season has been ‘busy but beautiful’ would be pretty accurate! I had two rounds of mini sessions this fall & it was wonderful. Some families I’ve photographed before and they’re returning with new little members in tow, and others are brand new faces that I loved meeting! One thing is for sure, […]

Along Route 125, nestled in winding backroads, you’ll find Clayville Historic Site in small town Illinois. It’s a quaint little historic 1800’s estate and the perfect backdrop for Jake and Haley’s wedding. This wedding day included an absolutely stunning color palette, gorgeous boho floral arrangements, and the most down to earth, sweetest couple! Jake and […]

Michael and Abigail had a beautiful fall day for an engagement session! Though a bit chilly, they were amazing and brought so much spontaneous fun! Look at them dancing in the middle of the street- that was no posing, just these two having fun! We shot their engagement session at a local park, and it […]

A Sweet Fall Wedding Get ready to meet two of the sweetest, kind-hearted people on the planet. We met them for their engagement session last fall, Mitch & Liz | A Peoria Illinois Engagement Session. They have a super cute met-in-college love story and so of course we had to incorporate the campus into their […]

It is such a fun thing to watch my client families grow! I have been blessed to capture this little family from welcoming their first son Elijah, through his milestones and now welcoming baby #2! (AND it’s a girl!) This little fam is a perfect example of how a client-photographer relationship starts and turns into […]

The definition of a dreamy summer evening date night! No, seriously. I often tell my couples to think of their engagement session as a sort of date night. It’s a one time event that includes quality time together celebrating the excitement of getting married, a chance to dress up and a great reason to go out to dinner after!
(Or in this case, ice cream!) It was the best!

This engagement session perfectly captures that quintessential rustic vibe with a bright pop of fun that is Jake and Haley. Spring is one of my favorite times to photograph! It’s warming up and everything is vibrant and green. Another thing that’s my favorite to photograph… couples like this!! How cute are they? We ventured to […]
