Rachel + Dustin | Chicago Engagement Session



Rachel and Dustin’s engagement session in Lincoln Park was full of love, laughter, and their adorable pup, Ryder, who definitely stole the show. We had the honor of photographing Dustin’s sister, Hannah, when she married Jared in 2022, so it’s extra special to be working with this fun and wonderful family again. Their wedding next year is going to be one to remember!

XOXO,

~ Dawn + Bob

Kaila + Andrew | Wedding | Renaissance Chicago



Kaila and Andrew’s wedding at the Renaissance Chicago Hotel was such an amazing celebration, not to mention incredibly fun! We first met Andrew’s parents, Pam and Phil, at a gala years ago and instantly connected. That meaningful introduction eventually led us to meeting their son, Andrew and his then girlfriend, Kaila, and we’re so grateful it did. They are the nicest, kindest, most beautiful couple, and we absolutely adore them and the love they share with each other. It’s the kind of love that’s so genuine and effortless, and it was a true honor to capture their wedding day!

The incredible team at Great Events planned every detail to perfection, making the day feel seamless. Bloome Floral filled the space with stunning arrangements that brought warmth and elegance to every corner. And the Renaissance Chicago Hotel was the perfect venue, modern, stylish, and ideal for a city celebration.

Once the reception kicked off, Rendezvous Music kept the party going strong. The dance floor stayed full all night long, and the energy was full of life. It was one of those nights where the celebration felt endless in the best way!

As they celebrate their one year anniversary, we’re raising a glass to Kaila and Andrew! Here’s to all the love, laughter, and beautiful moments still to come!

Much love,

~ Dawn + Bob

Jamie + Sam | Wedding | Four Seasons Chicago



A year ago, Jamie and Sam tied the knot at the stunning Four Seasons Hotel in Chicago, a venue that brings timeless elegance to every celebration. It’s the kind of place where every corner invites you to stop and take in the beauty, which is a photographer's dream. The Four Seasons provided the perfect backdrop for Jamie and Sam’s unforgettable day, with its refined decor, warm ambiance, and classic charm—an absolute dream venue for weddings.

Their day came together beautifully, thanks to the amazing team at Great Events. With a deep commitment to every couple they work with, they made sure everything went off without a hitch. From start to finish, Great Events brought their expertise, making it easy for Jamie, Sam, and their families to enjoy each moment.

The decor by HMR Designs was nothing short of incredible, elevating both the ceremony and reception spaces to a level of beauty and sophistication that added so much to the day. Their artistry brought Jamie and Sam’s vision to life in every detail, creating an atmosphere that felt both elegant and intimate, a perfect match for the Four Seasons.

Jamie looked stunning. She wore a gorgeous Enzoani gown, a choice that perfectly captured her grace and style. Tina Tobar created a beautiful hairstyle that complemented her look, and Dani Garcia did a fantastic job with her makeup, enhancing her natural beauty. And with the help of wedding stylist Robert Noia, every detail was polished to perfection.

The reception was a blast! Rendezvous Music | Greenlight Band kept everyone on the dance floor, energizing the room with their fantastic music, and it felt like no one wanted the night to end. To top it all off, Deerfield Bakery designed a cake that was as beautiful as it was delicious—a sweet finish to a fantastic night.

As Jamie and Sam celebrate their first anniversary, we look back with such gratitude for the chance to capture these moments. Here’s to a lifetime of happiness and love for this incredible couple!

XOXO,

~ Dawn + Bob
