Why I photograph weddings:  Weddings are a blast. Think about it. You have 2 people who are truly in love with one another, celebrating that love with friends and family. It does not get better than that, and I am there to document it all. What a feeling.  My favorite quote: 

My favorite dessert:  Churros  My favorite place to visit:  Guadalajara, Mexico  My ideal Friday night:  Pizza, wife, 2 kids and my dog. It doesn’t matter what we are watching on TV as long as we are together.  A little more about me:  I am a full-time working photographer in the great city of Chicago. I worked as an editorial shooter for about 8 years with a few newspapers before I started my own photo studio. For the past 6 years I have been the team photographer for the Major League Soccer team Chicago Fire FC and currently started shooting for the Major League Rugby team Chicago Hounds. I have a wide range of clients that vary from the Lurie Cancer Center, Choose Chicago and have been on a national tour with several huge artists and comedians. On my free time I love to go back to my roots of painting and illustration. I am an avid runner and have been jumping rope a lot for the past 2 years. I am super easy-going and love to have fun while creating interesting frames. Cold beer and an occasional tequila also make me smile.
