2017 was quite a year!! It consisted of bags always being packed because lots of traveling, ALL the weddings (11 of my own, 44 second shooting), adventurous and fun couples, new gear and too many memories to count! I photographed couples in Chicago, San Francisco, Napa, Oakland, New York and many more places. I visited Detroit for the first time and photographed a wedding for Swanky Fine Art Weddings. I traveled to Seattle with my family for the first time and photographed a sweet couple in Georgetown. I went to Ireland, England and France with my friends Adrian and Sheri and we were able to photograph some gorgeous couples in each country. I shot an elopement in Laguna Beach and we got drenched, including my gear, but we all survived. I'm excited for all the adventures to come in 2018 and can only hope they live up to this year's adventures!

A WALK AROUND WICKER PARK

It was so great to reconnect with Connor and Hannah. We all went to college together, which is where they first met. I met Connor while I was out to lunch with our mutual friend Fred. We managed to stay in touch via Instagram and I reached out before I headed to Chicago. I was so stoked when they said they were up for a couple session, but they couldn't afford it. When I'm traveling, of course I want to take on as much paid work as possible, but sometimes I have free time to be creative and always need new content in new places. I met up at their apartment and we shot as much as we could there, then we went on a stroll around Wicker Park. Enjoy!

Annette felt like going for a ride and Evan offered up his bike.. Vroom, vroom! Major shout out to my friend Louie for setting up this shoot with Annette. We wandered around Chicago, specifically Wicker Park when she mentioned she had a friend with a motorcycle. We met up with Evan and he was all for getting some shots! Enjoy!
