Anacelia & Blake - Blissful Barn - Michigan

Blissfull barn become one of my favorite venues last May.
Anacelia & Blake had a beautiful Memorial Day weekend wedding with their closest friends and family. Still one of my favorite days last year, where I swooned almost all day.

Two sweet souls who were just happy to be officially married!

Haley & Michael - The Allure on the Lake, Chesterton, Indiana - Wedding

Haley & Michael were my first wedding of the year and boy did we have a BLAST. I was so excited to get into the newly built Allure on the Lake! They were the second wedding that opening weekend. It was insane to see how amazing everything looked.
Haley & Michael booked a steamy beach mini with me last year, but we ended up doing a creek mini because the beach decided it was going to have toxic materials in the water that day so the beach was closed. We made due with what we had, and it was a blast. They asked me about photographing their super small wedding day and I was SO excited. We had a blast at their session and I just knew their wedding day was going to be special.

These two are perfect for each other, and are now expecting their first little babe. <3

Lauren & Derek - Aberdeen Manor, Valparaiso Indiana

Aberdeen is always a favorite venue, especially in October <3
I absolutely loved getting to know Lauren & Derek and spending their big day with them! This was such a great day.
Lauren & Derek rocked their engagement session, and I knew we would have 10 times more fun on their wedding day. Even though we had a little rain, the colors were popping and we still got their outdoor photos! <3

Ashley & Jim - Four Corners Winery, Valparaiso, Indiana - Wedding

I have never been so happy for a planner to recommend me to a couple before.. until Ashley & Jim. Ashley & Jim were SUCH a fun couple. I would love to go get margs with them any day. Their day was a beautiful August, hot day. Their vendor line up was on point - from their videographer, dj, hair & makeup and everything in between. I loved loved loved capturing their day.. The amount of photos that will be shared on this post - I will not apologize! It was one of my favorite days! <3

Alyssa & Trey - Engagement

Back last spring? Maybe summer? I met up with Trey & Alyssa to shoot their engagement session in Michigan City. I was immediately excited to shoot their wedding in August of 2022. We didnt get much of a sunset, but we for sure enjoyed the warm weather and pretty downtown vibes.

Bre & Corey - The Market, Valparaiso Indiana - Wedding

Bre & Corey also were a covid reschedule, so I was looking forward to this day for longer than I care to admit. I loved loved loved finally getting to work with them. My friendship with Bre is literally one of my most favorite things about this job. I love gaining friends every year with some of my brides. Its what I strive for.
Anywho. Back to these two love birds. - their day was much anticipated and the love that surrounded it was incredible.
These guys were so happy to finally be married and become a family of three <3

Alli & Jeff - Illinois - Wedding

Alli & Jeff got to celebrate FINALLY with all their friends and family in May. I know they had one hack of a time trying to make sure they could have everyone they wanted there. Between venue changes, and everything else, they settled on a backyard reception. It was AMAZING. At one point, Jeff’s dad even said he wanted the party to be so loud and crazy that the cops got called. 27E sure did try and bring the house down.
It was just a fun day, filled with their friends and families love. It was truly evident in all aspects of their day.

Courtney & Zach - Lansing, Illinois - Wedding

Okay when you look at all of these pictures, there are a few more black and whites than I normally add into blogs but their day was so emotional and so beautiful it just worked.

We took their engagement photos on one of the coldest days, and their wedding day was pretty chilly too!
It was a beautiful, windy Saturday.
I also went overboard on the detail photos… but thats a common occurrence. Which is something to look forward to when I shoot your wedding right? wink, wink, nudge nudge

This was just a perfect day, and I love this sweet couple.

Nicole & Brett - Chicago Engagement Session

Nicole & Brett were a dream. I am SO excited for their wedding this year… especially after these photos. I mean… LOOK AT THEM! They are straight up models. Not only did we get some beautiful light… we got to go up on a ROOFTOP in Chicago. <3
To say im obsessed about this session is an understatement. Just see for yourself…

Nicole & Eric - Chesterton, Indiana

Nicole & Eric wanted a small backyard wedding before covid was even thing! They just had their family and closest friends to spend their special day together. Their backyard, and their house are just beautiful!
I know they put so much work into their big day.

It was just a beautiful September day. <3
