DOWNTOWN SPRINGFIELD IL ENGAGEMENT PHOTOGRAPHY BECCA+MATTHEW | PROMISED

She is sweet and down to earth and loves all the things I love- I could have sat and chatted with her for hours from the first moment I met her.  She laughs easily and is very joyful and super easy to talk to.  And, while it is no more important than the rest, she is beautiful!! Which makes for ridiculously easy photographing!

He, like her, is the kind of guy you could sit and have a beer with (who am I kidding, mine would have to be some sort of fruity drink probably!) upon first meeting and the talk would be easy.  Kind, big heart, interesting, and completely in love with her.  A bit of a country boy and loves outdoors- but is still happy to clean up and a great sport for pictures!

Matt genuinely surprised Rebecca when he proposed to her- she truly had no idea it was coming. That isn’t something I hear very often- usually the ladies are expecting it to some extent. He completely swept her off her feet, like he did when they started dating (and what a good story it all is!).  Rebecca and Matt, I loved spending that evening with you! Your love is so genuine and visible, you make it look absolutely easy.  And you were SO easy to photograph!  I absolutely cannot wait for your wedding next October!!

I'm Jill, a wedding and portrait photographer based out of Chicago and Central Illinois, and available world wide! I'm also a photography educator, wife to my favorite person on the planet, mama to 3 amazing kids and an energetic Aussie, and obsessed with statement jewelry and all desserts (especially fruit pies!). 

As a past high school teacher, I have a major heart for education. After going full time in my business, I have built a business I love that gives me an almost 6 figure salary and allows me to be home part time with my kids.  I dream for you to run a business that enhances your life and lights you up, and I believe I can help you learn how to do it with a little hustle and a lot of heart!

Hello Friend!

Are you a Photographer?

Start HERE! 

Are you a mom/hobbyist?

Start HERE! 

You're in the right place!  As a past high school teacher, educating others is my life's work and a HUGE part of my business!  I have been teaching moms and hobbyists how to use their camera from first purchasing it all the way to coaching them into businesses of their own, and I'd love to help you as well, wherever you are (and whatever camera you have!).

I'm so glad you are here!  Teaching Photographers and other small business owners how to run more joyful, successful, and profitable businesses is one of my favorite parts of my business!  I specialize in working with photographers to make their goals a reality (or figure out what their goals should be in the first place!).
