Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | 2021 Mini Sessions
2021 Mini Sessions
Each year we look forward to seeing past couples and their growing families, as well as meeting amazing new couples and families for our annual mini sessions! Usually, we are trying to squeeze these sessions in at the last moment since weddings have been our main focus for the last 9 years. 2020 has given us a new perspective and appreciation for family and lifestyle photography. It’s such a privilege to capture your family, whether its a family of two or ten, toddlers or fur babies, and we can’t wait to see you again!
This year we have planned four Mini Session weekends for 2021 available for booking depending on the season you are most interested. These weekends are reserved on a first come, first serve basis and you can reserve your date and time below.
Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Chicago Autumn Wedding - Sarah & Scott
This was our very last wedding of 2020 and I can’t think of a better way to have capped it all off. Sarah & Scott were absolutely amazing navigating all the changes just days before their wedding as the Chicago area began shutting back down again. Many of their plans may have changed, but it didn’t seem to phase them or the joy and celebration that was October 31st, 2020. They decided on changing their reception space to a small intimate gathering with their closest family and friends at a friend’s beautiful home in the suburbs. It truly was such an honor to capture and witness such a sacred day. 2020 has changed how we see weddings and it’s all been because of the most incredible couples this year who decided that their love couldn’t be canceled. We celebrate Sarah & Scott. Their attitudes, their joy, their ability to roll with all the punches 2020 may have brought their way. If every couple can get through the challenges of what 2020 brought and still decide to tie the knot regardless what what or how they envisioned their day to be, then we truly believe they’re going to be able to weather the storm. Because marriage isn’t perfect. It’s full of a few unseen 2020’s. But, it’s about the commitment to saying yes every single day even if the circumstances surrounding you aren’t perfect. …and even though Sarah & Scott’s plans may have changed, we think it turned out even more perfect than the original plan. These two are the real deal and they showed every bit of that during this season. We respect and appreciate them both! Enjoy all the beauty from their perfect day!

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Wilder Mansion Garden Wedding - Caitlin & Mark
It’s the perfect moment to relive this day as I sit inside on my computer avoiding this -3 day. Mark & Caitlin’s outdoor garden ceremony at the Wilder Mansion was pure joy, warmth, sunshine, and life this summer. …and this is just a taste of what’s to come for their larger celebration in 2021! It truly is a gift to get to have the loveliest couples for two years in a row despite the circumstances that has surrounded this past year. As much as we’re looking forward to this upcoming year, we’re also so thankful for Caitlin & Mark’s intimate wedding ceremony and getting to be there to capture their first look and “I do’s”. Everything about this day is filling us back up and gearing us up for more days like these. Caitlin & Mark, it was such a treat! Cannot wait to capture you both again with more of your loved ones by your side!

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Baton Rouge, Louisiana Wedding - Heather & Matthew
This a really special one for us. This fall, Jordan’s cousin Heather married her very best friend and Jordan got to capture all the love (Meg attended the ceremony with the kiddos!) We traveled down to Jordan’s home state and spent the week with the entire Imhoff side of the family in Baton Rouge. It was such a joy of a day. Heather is so dear to us. She lives and loves so big. She’s thoughtful, shares our love for Disney World (LOVE when we get to go there with her) and oozes Southern hospitality. And we cannot be more excited in getting to welcome Matt to our family! He is as equally kind, thoughtful, and such a keeper. This day is the antithesis of a gorgeous Southern Wedding at the Governor’s Mansion. Heather handled the accommodations for Covid rules with so much grace. Enjoy all the Southern inspiration & elegance along with cameos of our siblings, cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents!

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Autumn Chicago Elopement - Emily & Brandon
Emily and Brandon are two of the most lovely humans we’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. These two had a wedding scheduled for April of 2020. They were the first couple we figured this all out with and I cannot begin to express how thankful we are to still get to work with them this upcoming year as they celebrate with more of their friends and loved ones. To say that they handled this last year in stride and grace is an understatement . We have SO MUCH respect for them. Their kindness and their communication as we just simply took last spring day by day. They decided on an intimate elopement this past fall and they tied the knot in Chicago surrounded by their very closest family members. It was beautiful. Their joy wasn’t squelched by the pandemic, and we’re beyond excited to get to keep them with us this upcoming year. For now, enjoy all the beauty and joy from their first wedding celebration!

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Chicago Engagement Session - Jake & Kaitlyn
We lucked out with this glorious day downtown. It was such a treat to hang with Jake & Kaitlyn. These two are SO much fun. Truly, a dream couple for us to get to capture and we cannot wait for their wedding day! We met up for these right before everything was on lock down and I’m so thankful to have had the pleasure of capturing them before this long period of social distancing. It’s going to be a glorious day when we can all come together again and celebrate life and love. Until then, cheers to Jake & Kaitlyn!

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | North Avenue Beach Engagement Session
Winter engagement sessions at North Avenue Beach in Chicago have to be some of my most favorite of all time. If you’re willing to brave the wind and the chill from Lake Michigan, it’s so worth it! The winter light, the frost, and the glow are glorious! Leo and Evie worked for these and it was such a joy to capture them!

Eric and Hajar, this warm Chicago summer, Lincoln Park, Lake Michigan, and all the sweet laughter were pure bliss.

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Grand Geneva Wedding - Eric & Sara
Eric & Sara wanted to leave Chicago for a laid back destination wedding in Wisconsin, and it was perfect.

Eric & Sara, thank you for the honor of getting to capture the love and beauty that surrounded your day from beginning to end!

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | The Abbey Lake Geneva Wedding - Tyler & Mollie
I’m not sure there is anything more dreamy than a fall wedding on Lake Geneva. Mollie & Tyler flew all the way from Seattle to join their family and friends for one incredible destination wedding at The Abbey Resort. These two did all their planning from across the country. If you’ve ever been in that situation, you know how hard it is to nail down all those details from afar, but this day couldn’t have come together more beautifully. Their whites, creams, and greenery paired so romantically with the changing leaves and Autumn light. What a treat of a day to capture. And it’s true. West Coasters are truly as laid back and go with the flow as they say : ) Mollie & Tyler, thank you for the honor of allowing us to capture such a sweet and elegant destination wedding at one of our favorite places of all time.

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Rolling Green Country Club Wedding - Matt & Meghan
From the moment we met Matt and Meghan months and months before their wedding day, we just completely clicked. It was such a joy to be a part of this day from the moment it began until the moment it ended. These two are one in a million. The smiles were constant and easy. They were so naturally calm, laid back, and just ready to be married. Their families and friends were as equally delightful. The sun glowed as beautifully as these two did. We’re crazy over this day and I’m so excited to finally share some of our favorite moments from it.

- Watching Meghan’s beautiful momma help her get ready and seeing her daughter in her dress.
- The way Matt looked at Meghan all day from the moment he saw her walk down the aisle.
- The beautiful song Meghan’s brother sang for the two of them before dinner.

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Marriott Lincolnshire Wedding - Trevor & Tara
As I sit here watching the rain pour outside, I can’t help but feel all cozy and warm as I relive Tara & Trevor’s warm September wedding at the Marriott Lincolnshire. These two were such a joy to capture from beginning to end. After capturing days like this, I love the harp on how Stress -Free your wedding day can be if you plan for it from the very beginning! So, future brides, take notes from our girl, Tara! …make sure you keep a lookout for their beautiful lei exchange at their outdoor ceremony. They lived in Hawaii for a while before coming back to their original homes and incorporated that part of their journey into their beautiful ceremony!
As I sit here watching the rain pour outside, I can’t help but feel all cozy and warm as I relive Tara & Trevor’s warm September wedding at the Marriott Lincolnshire. These two were such a joy to capture from beginning to end. After spending the day with their entire bridal party and family, it’s easy to see that Tara & Trevor are so LOVED. …they’re very easy to love! We always enjoy getting to capture a wedding day at the Marriott Lincolnshire. There is so much to be said for an all inclusive venue where you can spend the day free of stress and travel. From getting ready, to fist look, to ceremony, to reception: everything is just right outside your doorstep. This setup was incredible and the their team was on point. …not only did they have everything all in one location, but they also had a planner who was on top of the small details. Brides, if you’re considering having a wedding planner or a day of coordinator, we promise that will be something that you will NOT regret it! After capturing days like this, I love the harp on how Stress -Free your wedding day can be if you plan for it from the very beginning! So, future brides, take notes from our girl, Tara! Keeping things simple, like locations, can be a LIFESAVER! And , ultimately, the less you travel on your wedding day, the more you can enjoy genuine & natural photo time, time with your friends and loved ones, and even time to stop and enjoy a cocktail for the entirety of your cocktail hour! Yes, it can be done! We loved this day, this couple, the wonderful guys over at Oakhouse Wedding Films, and the joy these two had for each other all day. …make sure you keep a lookout below for their beautiful lei exchange at their outdoor ceremony.

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Busse Woods Engagement Session - Richard & Molly
If we could encompass all the reasons we love to shoot in the Midwest, it would be encompassed in this Engagement Session. The way that golden hour glow lights up the tall grasses and prairie land is pure magic. Pair it with an incredibly fun loving, kind, and beautifully couple and we’re in heaven. I also love how Busse Woods can be shoot in about a thousand different ways.

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Country Club Wedding - Joe & Jessica
It's no secret that Jessica has the most beautiful and contagious smile. We quickly found that out after their Lincoln Park engagement session and her joy and laughter was even more contagious on her wedding day.

We quickly found that out after their Lincoln Park engagement session and her joy and laughter was even more contagious on her wedding day. After spending some time with Joe & Jessica, it doesn't take too long to see why they are a match made in heaven. Both are kind, steady, confident, and quick to smile. Joe has the most comfortable, confident quietness that makes it so easy to just be yourself with him. Jessica is bubbly, sweet, full of energy, and one organized bride. They're just one of those couples who are so natural and effortless complimentary to one another. Their day at the Makray Memorial Golf Club goes down, thus far, as the hottest summer day we've had yet. Reaching about 98 degrees and full on humidity. In looking back on their day, you'd never know in a million years! These two are amazing humans and we are beyond honored to have gotten to know them. Many shoutouts go to this fabulous team for pulling together this beautiful celebration!

Where to begin with Matt & Bailey? Besides the fact that these two are the very definition of #couplegoals, they're also kind and hilarious.
Where to begin with Matt & Bailey? Besides the fact that these two are the very definition of #couplegoals, they're also kind and hilarious. Last year, while we were getting ready for their Lincoln Park engagement session, we asked them if they were still on for it if it was raining. ...to which Bailey replied: "Yeah we're still on! We're not made of sugar. Let's do it!" Dang, we just love her! Every wedding photog's dream bride. And it's a good thing they aren't made of sugar because they would have melted on their 97 degree outdoor wedding day! We also just loved the way they so openly, affectionately, and sweetly love each other. Matt & Bailey’s first look was one for the books. After we captured them having those first moments together, we stepped away to track down Matt’s boutonnière for portraits. ...and when we came back, Matt didn’t think we could see him. Well, we could. And we caught those tears. And our hearts were melting. Ladies, marry a man who believes that you hung the moon just like Bailey.

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Country Club Wedding - Pat & Rachel
From the moment we met up with Rachel this weekend, we knew this day was going to be the sweetest.
From the moment we met up with Rachel this weekend, we knew this day was going to be the sweetest. We hadn't had the chance to meet in person with Rachel & Pat, as they had been planning their wedding from out of state, but we felt like friends instantly after we knocked on the door of her childhood home. Their families represent everything we love about down-to-earth Midwestern families and hospitality. Pat & Rachel were a dream. Kind, smart, light hearted, and so sweet with one another. Their wedding day happened to have a high of 97 degrees and even though their portraits happened to line up with the hottest part of the day, they were still all smiles. Their bridal party was a joy to capture and we couldn't have felt luckier. We left with our hearts full after getting to spend the day with these two and their incredible tribe. Thank you Pat & Rachel, for letting us be the ones to capture this incredible day! And many thanks to the amazing staff at Ruth Lake Country Club for being so wonderful and making this celebration so perfect!
