Morning light spilling through marble halls, echoing steps where art has lived for centuries — and in between it all, two people choosing forever.

Merari and Andrés began their wedding day where stillness meets story, wandering the Art Institute as if the world had paused just for them. Later, they exchanged vows in the quiet hum of the courthouse — proof that love doesn’t need an audience to feel monumental.

Refined. Intentional. Utterly timeless.

The beauty of a collective: one vision, many eyes. Here’s Laney & Owen’s story through our associate photographer, Aubrie.


Aubrie carries the heart of Fine Detailed Collective in every frame she creates. Her eye for human connection, quiet pauses, and generational love is what makes stories like Laney and Owen’s feel so alive — even long after the day ends.⁣

This wedding wasn’t just beautifully designed — it was felt. From the first look shared with the people that mattered most to the spirit-filled elevator ride at night. Every moment draped in love, preserved for a lifetime 🫶🏻

An affair of timeless elegance at Armour House.
Soft blues danced with summer skies, an Aperol Spritz tower sparkled with celebration, and their beloved pup, Bean, added the sweetest touch of heart.

Every detail — from the grandeur of the setting to the effortless joy in the air — spoke to a wedding both classic and modern, intimate yet grand. Marie & Justin’s day was nothing short of stunning. 🤍

Taylor & Chris 🥂

From the intimate moments of getting ready at home to their first look atop the Robey rooftop — laughter, friends, and celebratory cheers set the tone for the day. 🍸✨

At Galleria Marchetti, the weather had its own plans, nudging cocktail hour under the open sky before rain showers moved their ceremony indoors. Surrounded by their closest people, Taylor & Chris said I do in the most heartfelt way, turning the unexpected into unforgettable.

The night unfolded into a packed dance floor, a stunning first dance, and Taylor’s breathtaking outfit change that left everyone in awe. A day that felt effortless, elegant, and completely theirs. 🤍

A love like this

Lakin & Austin wandered the Art Institute with so much ease and love — every glance, every touch, every quiet laugh felt like it belonged within the walls of a museum. Their story unfolded in whispers of light, shadow, and timeless beauty, reminding me that love itself is the greatest masterpiece.

Before the florals, before the gown, before the table was ever set… there was this.
A vision born in ink and texture — from the hands of .

Her paper goods weren’t just details… they were the starting point.
They whispered our color story. Shaped the floral palette. Inspired the layers, the curves, the softness. She gave Petals & Zest its first breath — and everything else followed.

This post is for the artist whose work made everything else possible.
The heart of this vision. The soul on paper.

Petals & Zest ~

Inspired by a raspberry martini, blooming chartreuse, and a little bit of chaos in the best way — this shoot was born from a single piece of art and grew into a full-sensory world of texture, color, and heart.

Every detail was layered with intention — from painterly stationery and dramatic florals to velvet tablescapes, citrus tones, and fashion-forward silhouettes. We poured ourselves into this shoot — truly. From sourcing the right glassware to finding the perfect blush gown, this was a labor of love.

It’s zesty. It’s romantic. It’s whimsical. It’s a reminder that you can build something editorial and expressive and still have it feel like it has a heartbeat.

This is for the couples who dream in color, who want their wedding to feel like an experience — not just an event.

✨ Petals & Zest, created with soul and styled for story.

Documentary. Editorial. Cinematic.

There’s something extraordinary about the quiet, unnoticed moments — a laugh shared when no one’s looking, a nervous fidget before walking down the aisle, the way your person pulls you in close just because.

That’s documentary-style photography — honest, unposed, and full of feeling.

But your story also deserves intention.

That’s where editorial photography steps in.

Carefully framed, thoughtfully lit, softly guided. It’s the polished portrait that still feels like you — only with a bit more breathing room and beauty layered in.

Then there’s cinematic photography — the in-between. Emotion-forward, storytelling-driven, and rich with depth. It’s about capturing not just what happened, but how it felt — the light flares, the movement, the mood. Like stills from a movie you’ll want to rewatch forever.

We blend all three — not because it’s trendy, but because no single style can hold everything your day will be.

We’re here for the tears and the table settings. The wind in your hair and the golden hour stills. The laugh lines, the quiet glances, the perfectly imperfect.

Photos that look beautiful.
Photos that feel like you.

A wedding woven into the very heart of Chicago’s most iconic museum.

Lauren and David began their day enveloped in the stillness of the gardens—a quiet prelude to what would become a masterful unfolding of love and legacy. Their ceremony took place on the Woman’s Board Grand Staircase, beneath soaring stained glass and surrounded by florals as timeless as the vows they exchanged.

Afterward, they wandered the museum’s sacred halls—past Seurat’s Sunday Afternoon, the soft haze of Monet, the intensity of Van Gogh, and the stillness of Homer. A private portrait session that felt more like a slow walk through history, with each frame echoing their artistry and ease.

A celebration of love told through composition, color, and quiet.

Part II coming soon…

There’s nothing like romance in the city..

Engagement session season is in full swing—which means I’m practically living in Chicago these days (and not mad about it).

Jennifer & Brian strolled through some of my favorite city spots, and we documented it all with the kind of warmth and ease that makes this job feel like magic. We’re approaching their big day fast and I’m beyond excited for all that’s to come 🤍
