Crystal & David's Wedding at State Road Garden Farms | DeKalb County, IL


I met Crystal and David briefly what seems like an eternity ago. We met up again in July 2020 to shoot their engagement photos in at Glacial Park in McHenry County, and they finally wed this past September.


Although the ceremony was smaller in attendance, their party was a huge hit with their friends and family. They were surrounded by friends, with multiple siblings and best friends as part of their wedding party. As a blended family, they had all kind of tiny tots at their sides, but it made for some adorable moments in the gallery.


Food and staffing were catered by the ever-amazing Your Day Your Way Events and Catering. My favorite event of the whole day was the sunset photos. Crystal mentioned to me several times that was the one thing she wanted from her day, and mother nature had one heck of a sunset to help her out with it.


As always, special thank you to Sierra Burke at SM Photography for being my right-hand (wo)man and second shooting with me for the amazing event!


Congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. Novak on your wedding day, it was such a pleasure documenting your big moments, and we hope you enjoy all the memories we captured!
