WHERE I'VE CALLED HOME:

Chicago, STL & Madrid have all been home at some point in my story, with Chicago being truly, home sweet home. This heart of mine loves to travel and capture weddings all over, but there sure is nothing like coming around the curve of LSD back to sweet home, Chicago.

MY FAVORITE DRINK IS:

Nothing beats a morning coffee in the sunshine!!!! Next up would definitely be an afternoon oat milk latte followed by a glass of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc!

MY FAVORITE FOOD IS:

Does Jeni’s Ice Cream count!?? Otherwise, you’ll find my fridge always fully stocked for taco night!!

MY HAPPY PLACE IS:

Anywhere in the sunshine!!!! Seriously it does absolute wonders for my soul.

YOU'LL HEAR ME BLASTING:

HAPPY HITS PLAYLIST ON SPOTIFY ON REPEAT!!! It’s really, ya know, happy!!! Also, my friends tell me my favorite genre of music is wedding reception classics - Africa by Toto and Cotton Eyed Joe to be specific.

FAVORITE PART OF A WEDDING DAY

Your morning moments!!! I’d go on and on telling you how special your wedding day morning is, but I think I’ll let you find out for yourself :-) My other two favorite moments are you walking down the aisle after being MARRIED + open dance floor, duh!!!

WHEN I'M NOT TAKING PICTURES I’M:

On a run at sunset (probs the Chi lakefront), eating Chipotle, stopping people in the middle of the sidewalk to pet their golden pup or to let them snuggle mine, making reservations at Lettuce Entertain You restaurants, chatting on the phone with an old friend, or shooting film in my personal moments (okay fine, that’s taking pictures. But it’s different) :-)

WHAT I TREASURE THE MOST:

My family!!! Hands down. I am so beyond lucky to live within a mile or two of both of my sisters, and just down the expressway from my parents. My days off are spent with them - they’re my favorite phone calls + simply put, my greatest gifts!!!
