Photographing Missy & Danny’s wedding was an absolute blast from start to finish. From the moment we met, they brought an infectious, joyful energy that made everything feel easy and natural in front of the camera.

I’m still smiling thinking back to Kayla and Phillip’s wedding day this past fall. These two are such a fun, easy-going couple, and their wedding was the perfect reflection of their personalities—boisterous, heartfelt, and full of surprises. I’ve photographed plenty of weddings at the Harold Washington Library over the years, but this one stands out for so many reasons. It was one of those days that made me grateful all over again for what I get to do.

Some weddings radiate pure joy, deep tradition, and an undeniable sense of fun—and Marissa and Troy’s wedding was exactly that. Their love story, spanning over a decade, brought them from Marquette University in Milwaukee to the vibrant city of Chicago, where they’ve built a life together. They tied the knot in a celebration that beautifully blended Armenian customs with a vintage, rustic aesthetic, creating an unforgettable day for everyone involved.

As a Chicago wedding photographer, I have been privileged to document numerous love stories, each one unique and beautiful in its own way. However, Wes and David's wedding was truly a remarkable experience. From the moment I arrived at The LaSalle Chicago hotel to capture the grooms getting ready, I knew this day would be filled with laughter, love, and unforgettable moments!

Today, I want to share with you an incredible wedding that I had the privilege of photographing. Meet Priya and Jeff, a couple whose love and resilience really shone through on their special day, even when the weather seemed determined to get in the way.

On a sunny summer day in Chicago, I had the honor of photographing Anne and Eric's wedding. The day started at the couple's home in Ukrainian Village, where the bride was getting ready with her sisters. I love when couples start the day at home, as it allows me to involve their space in their wedding day story. Anne's family was so much fun to photograph, and the first look with her father was a particularly touching moment.

I’m so appreciative of the heartfelt and genuine looks these two grooms were serving up on their wedding day. As a photographer, I’m always looking for THAT moment, a picture that captures the affection and emotion of the day… and I am proud of how many of those moments I was able to photograph for Chris & Mike.
