Champaign-Urbana wedding and portrait photography
Shannon + Brandon had an absolutely beautiful and perfect wedding day — just like I knew they would! Shannon had her ducks all in a row well over a year ago when they hired me to photograph their wedding. Everything was planned to a T, with few hiccups (were there any??), and even though it…
This wedding was extra special to me because it was my dad’s! My dad Jeff married Stacey on Dec. 1 at the little country Funks Grove Chapel. I’m always a sucker for little wooden churches with white pews. They are so cute! I talked them into stopping on the way to the reception for a…
MaKayla + Jeremy had a beautiful late fall wedding at the Champaign Church of Christ, followed by a reception at the iHotel. I always love a purple theme, and this one was no exception, and really added pops of color when we needed it for the outdoor (and even some of the indoor!) images. Highlights…
I LOVE the pics Holly! You did an amazing job! Can’t wait to see the rest!

Good day! I know this is kind of off topic but I was wondering if you knew
where I could locate a captcha plugin for my

trouble finding one? Thanks a lot!
I had the privilege of photographing another courthouse wedding on the Friday before Thanksgiving. Courthouse weddings are great because they are pretty much solid photojournalism with very little (if any) posing or details. I get to tell the couple’s story in a natural and candid way that is very different from a full wedding day….
Erin + Chris planned their wedding for 2nd part of October, which always leaves the weather odds in limbo. They lucked out with a gorgeous day, albeit a little wet grass. That didn’t deter us at all though, as we traipsed around Erin’s parents’ farm following the ceremony, as well as the Arboretum. Poor Erin…
Beautiful photos! They turned out so great and captured everything perfectly. Can’t wait to see more. Thanks for dealing with us throughout the day; you were a real sport!
Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful!
