Peabe & Jam’s Destination Wedding in Chicago
I’ve known Jamie for 10+ years. We met in high school and she’s always been one of the most creative people I’ve known. She met her match, Peabe in Chicago. Their story is filled with love, lots of travel, an epic proposal in Hawaii including THIS Elvis compilation, and now a beautiful daughter. Peabe and Jamie decided to have a wedding in their hometown on the first day of summer. It was such an honor and a privilege to document their day. My favorite detail was all of the handmade bouquets and flower details Jamie made by hand over the past year! My favorite moment was when it started dumping rain half way during the ceremony. You can just see how much joy these two have for life and love for each other. They had huge smiles on their faces all day long. A big congratulations to you both! Guests of the wedding can access all of the images from the wedding online HERE.

Jess & Jacob’s Wedding: Calamigos Ranch Malibu
Jessica and Jacob are a sweet couple from North Carolina who wanted to have a fun wedding in Southern California close to their family. Their day was filled with laughs, love, and lots of fun! Jess wore custom converse shoes in mint and yellow, and Jacob wore his Marine uniform and their dogs were right by their side all night long from their first dance to the last! Here’s some of my favorite images.
