Joii & Tyron have been married for 14 years, and they keep finding more to celebrate together. They live life with such evident appreciation that it’s impossible to be in their presence and not feel my spirit lifted— it’s inspiring, to say the very least.

Giving loved ones the gift of professional photography is a way to give them the gift of presence, to celebrate the aspects of life that we treasure most. Here are a few specific ideas for people in your life…

Scarlett and David chose one of Milwaukee’s (many) magnificent venues for their vows: Milwaukee Art Museum. (If you don’t know the venue, it’s a total showstopper.) They got married in mid-July, and their color scheme was just as hot as the weather. They had a hybrid ceremony, honoring both of their faiths (Christian and Jewish), and danced the night away with their favorite people, with Lake Michigan as their backdrop.

A one-year dating anniversary is a wonderful time for a session— you’re just far enough along in your relationship that you know it has staying power, but it’s still pretty fresh, too. A one-year dating anniversary session has the potential to become one you’ll look back on for decades to come, remembering early days of your relationship.

Tiffany and Joe chose a couple of the absolute best venues in Evansville, Indiana— Evansville Country Club, and Sts. Mary and John Catholic Parish. Purple was the signature color, and Tiffany wore a classic princess ballgown, complete with a tiara.

Aimee and Immy’s anniversary session in their adopted hometown of Orlando was as fresh and lovely as Florida citrus.

Brittany and Sophie have been in love for more than a decade. They are the ultimate dynamic duo— perennially co-creative, humorous, and darling.

Lasserina and Daniel’s early spring wedding, planned by Ritz Charles, was a DREAM. After a year of planning, it all came together to be a wonderfully fun, wildly beautiful spring wedding day in downtown Indianapolis. Some of my favorite aspects of this day: the magnificent venue, Indianapolis Artsgarden; Lasserina’s ballgown by Luxe Redux Bridal; their […]

If you’re looking for a way to elevate your engagement session experience, I recommend taking instruction from Tiffany and Joe, who decided to use their engagement session as an excuse for a getaway.

IU is Tiffany’s alma mater, and Joe is an IU sports fan, but their engagement session was the first time they went to Bloomington together. As you can see from these images, IU is a glorious campus— endlessly romantic and just soaked in a sense of history. And their dog, Scout, joined in for a few shots!

Allison and Patrick got married in 2016 in their home city of Chicago. For their anniversary session, the distinctive architecture of Michigan Avenue paired with glitzy gold embellishments on Allison’s dress got the vibe just right for celebration.
