Maureen & Eric






We had an absolute blast photographing Maureen and Eric's wedding. Although it was brisk and rainy,  Maureen always had the biggest smile on her face! The couple got hitched at St. Andrew Parish in Roscoe Village, then headed over to North Ave. beach for a quick picture along the lake. After the beach, we retreated into Butch McGuire's before ending at the Mid America Club. A Stem Above made the room look marvelous. The couple and their guests danced the night away to dueling pianos (which was a first!). Thank you to Ali Phillips for running a memorable evening.

Destination Kauai, Hawaii: Jeff & Nisar's Day After Session










By now you've probably seen Jeff & Nisar's Wedding pictures that we posted a few days ago. A couple of days after the wedding, we woke up early and hit the beach as the sun rose over the ocean. I think I'll leave it at that and let the pictures speak for themselves. Enjoy!

Destination Kauai, Hawaii: Jeff & Nisar's Wedding



We love destination weddings! This one was extra special because Jeff and Nisar are part of the G+S extended family. Nisar is a wedding planner and event designer extraordinaire, who we have had the pleasure of working with for many years. The recipe for the perfect destination wedding: Take two hot guys, a remote bit of beach in Kauai, a few Indian details, and you have the makings of one stunning wedding. We were so honored to be invited to shoot this intimate affair. There is really nothing else to say but enjoy this breathtaking event! Still haven't had enough, check out the slideshow below, and keep an eye out for the day after session!

Angelynn & Nick - Crystal Gardens

Angelynn and Nick prepared for a rainy wedding day, but Mother Nature pulled through and provided them with an beautiful spring day. Although they live in San Francisco, they decided to have their wedding in Angelynn's hometown. With their love for the outdoors and the city of Chicago, Navy Pier's Crystal Gardens was an easy choice for their venue. Congratulations Angelynn and Nick!

Claire & Michael's Big Day

Claire and Michael had been to a ton of weddings, and so when they were planning their own they decided they wanted to do things a little differently. That all started with the space - The Ravenswood Event Center is definitely unique as it's one part urban loft and one part classic car museum. The next shake up was the dress and veil combination. Claire wanted something modern and that had a detachable skirt so she could change her look during the reception. All of their influences came together to make the night memorable and fun for all their guests. Check out some of our favorite pictures below!
