Todd + Cindy: Family
We’ve known Todd and Cindy for almost a decade, and from the very beginning their family has been an incredible blessing to us. Todd is one of our pastors at our church and a true shepherd. He’s also a great father, good friend, and fast runner. We’ve even enjoyed some great marathons together!
Cindy is a patient, calm, and wise mother who is raising two wonderful daughters. This past winter, with great joy and anticipation, they welcomed a son into their family who was born in the Philippines. I was honored when they asked me to capture some photos of their expanded family and we had a great morning together.

Annie + Stephen: Engagement
Stephen and Annie are so in love and we’re very excited about their recent engagement. We’ve known Annie for several years now and she even lived with us for a while, so it’s really special to be involved with the most exciting parts of life with a dear friend. We known both Stephen and Annie from church while they’ve attended Wheaton College and can imagine so many ways they will be better together, as one. Click through for the full gallery…

Kate + Yellow Harp
Kate’s harp isn’t actually yellow, but her “Yellow Harp” brand definitely captures the vibrancy and joy of her professional harp playing. Kate’s husband Ted was a great assistant for this photo session and we all enjoyed Kate’s fantastic playing during our time together.

Five Cousins: Family
Yesterday I had the pleasure of joining two families and their beautiful children for a Father’s Day session out at Cantigny. That’s five cousins with lots of energy! We walked through the beautiful gardens and got lots of great shots.

Hannah + Drew: Engagement
This engagement session has been a long time coming, but I finally got out with our friends Drew and Hannah this weekend for a great shoot. It was a bit early and a bit chilly for a Saturday morning, but the weather worked out perfectly and we really enjoyed our time in the park. Drew is an amazing bike builder and works in a local bike shop, so the bikes you’ll see in the gallery aren’t just props. They’re custom-built cruisers with some of the sweetest details and the perfect attitude. The three of us rode over together and captured the joy of their engagement (and their sweet rides).

Asharae + Tim: Engagement
Tim and Asharae have become dear friends over the last year. Asharae shot my first wedding with me last fall and I’m looking forward to the privilege of shooting their wedding this summer. It was a crisp, cold day so we started out at a local coffee shop before we headed out into the snow.
They’re so full of joy and laughter that it makes them so easy to shoot. We had a great time this afternoon and it shows in the photos. Click the image below for the full gallery.

Janlee + Zach: Engagement
If I could quit my day job…I’d be a photographer. I did an engagement shoot last night for our house guest, Janlee, and her fiancé, Zach, and I had a blast. They have both become wonderful friends to our family and we’re sad to think Janlee is going to move out in a few weeks. Good news for her is that she’ll be married to a great guy.
We’re grateful to be invited to their wedding and our whole family is looking forward to the event. I’ve been observing and practicing because I’m also going to shoot their wedding along with another photographer. Exciting and sobering. Gulp!
Here’s more of Zach and Janlee.
