Traveling has been a passion of mine since I got my first passport at 6 months old (no joke!) I sat on my moms lap and made gaga sounds at the photographer. I started traveling alone at age 6 to visit my Aunt in Missouri every Summer. I haven't stopped since. Where I go, my camera follows. I love experiencing new places and capturing each one in my own way.
Last July, Amy and Jake were married in her hometown of Geneva, IL. There were crazy thunderstorms and flooding the night before but if Amy was stressed over it, you couldn’t tell! The actual day of the wedding was nice and dry…and humid! I think that I have never experienced so much humidity in my life.
You may recognize these two from their fun firehouse engagement session!
My assistant Tina found this cool old abandoned building in Geneva!
The river in Geneva was crazy flooded so we went with our back up plan – the Japanese Garden in the Fabyan Forest Preserve.
The water you see here? Not supposed to be there!
The reception was at the Lincoln Inn in Batavia. Its supposed to be super haunted!
I love when couples use their engagement photos on the day of!
Cool shot by Tina below!
It was such a fun reception…I was on the dance floor boogieing more than once that night!
