What areas do you serve for wedding photography in Chicago?

I’m based in downtown Chicago and capture weddings, proposals, and elopements across the Chicagoland area and nearby destinations.

How far in advance should we book our Chicago wedding photographer?

Most couples book 6–12 months ahead to secure their date, especially for popular Chicago wedding seasons.

Yes — I specialize in candid engagement and surprise proposal photography at iconic Chicago locations and scenic spots.

My approach focuses on natural light, real emotions, and storytelling to capture authentic, timeless wedding moments.
