Benita + Andrew are some of the most beautiful people I’ve ever met…inside and out! They reflect each other so well and it is very clear to me that God brought them together. Can’t wait to document their wedding day!

Happy THIRD day of Spring! The Fragance Garden is open at The Morton Arboretum and I caught this little birdie sitting so pretty on a rock.
Love this soft editing.

Please help me welcome baby Teagan into the world! It is truly an honor and privilege to do what I love and document families’ precious moments. I adore the Bartelt family…
What a precious little face! You are a blessing, Teagan! I can’t wait for your six-month portrait session!

THEY DID IT! Chloe + Christian are MARRIED!!! They said their vows in front of family and friends and threw a party! The shortest engagement EVER and they wouldn’t have it any other way! Thanking God for such a beautiful day and for the many hands and hearts that were involved in putting this wedding together. I was NOT the official photographer, y’all. This is just me clicking at things I saw as beautiful and being totally spontaneous. I was also being mindful of not getting into the photographer’s way so most of my shots were candid. And I only have a few of the ceremony because I didn’t move from my seat. :) This is my way of telling a story of my youngest daughter’s wedding. So thankful for the beautiful February weather in Vegas and for family and friends who came from all over to show love and support. Thankful most of all for God’s presence and His extravagant GRACE.

“In marriage do thou be wise: prefer the person before money, virtue before beauty, the mind before the body; then thou has a wife, a friend, a companion, a second self.” ~ William Penn
