Sarah & Mike

Some love stories feel like they were always meant to find you. Sarah and Mike came to us through Katy and Jimmy, a referral that meant the world to us from the very start. And from the moment we connected, we knew this one was going to be something special.

The Illini Union Building on the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign campus is not just a beautiful venue, it carries meaning. It is a place where Mike spent his college years and where Sarah's family has deep roots, too. Choosing it for their wedding day was not just a backdrop decision. It was intentional, meaningful, and so deeply them.

And then there is Sarah herself. A true lover of antiques, her eye for the beautiful and the storied came through in every single detail of their day. There was a sense of history woven into everything. A warmth that felt collected and considered, like each piece had a little story of its own. Walking through their wedding felt like stepping into a world Sarah had been quietly curating her whole life.

Mike proposed on a picnic near Belmont Harbor, ants and all. It is exactly the kind of story that tells you everything you need to know about these two: romantic, a little unpredictable, and genuinely funny about it. That energy carried right into their wedding day.

Sarah and Mike, from one referral to a wedding day we will never forget. Thank you for trusting us. Thank you for choosing us. And thank you to Katy and Jimmy for sending you our way.

Sarah and Mike, we have been smiling ever since we drove back from Champaign. Thank you so much for having us as your wedding photographers!

From the moment Katy and Jimmy sent you our way, we felt the weight of that gift. A referral from a couple we love, leading us to a couple we now love just as much. That is the kind of thing that makes this work feel like the greatest privilege in the world.

Thank you for choosing us. Thank you for letting us into your day, your family, and your story. We are so glad you found us.

XOXO,
