Samantha and James Black’s exquisite fall wedding was a true reflection of their love, adorned with a rich palette of red and pink hues that harmoniously blended with the natural beauty […]

When choosing a location for your session there are a few things to keep in mind. I love using Cantigny Park in Wheaton, IL for portrait sessions. There are so many different types of backgrounds, between gardens, woodsy, grassy fields, a pond and a creek and even a few historic buildings. I like to joke […]

"Bridgette is incredibly talented. I would highly recommend her for any of your photo needs. This was my first photo shoot of any kind, so I was a bit nervous that I would screw up the pictures. But, Bridgette was very patient with me and very good at guiding us so that the photos would turn out beautifully. She is very personable, sweet, and fun. We had a blast with our photo shoot. Thank you again, Bridgette! You're amazing!"

“Bridgette will go above and beyond to make your pictures spectacular! We hired her to photograph my sister's wedding and on that day it was POURING rain. She wasn't phased at all and ended up getting creative and capturing the most precious moments with what she had inside to work with. She is punctual, quick to respond back, her ideas are fresh and fun, and is the sweetest lady you'll ever work with. You won't regret hurting her for your next event or photography needs!”
