Hadey + Mo

Mo was intrigued. From the moment he spotted Hadey behind the bar bar tending, he knew he had to strike up a conversation. Their conversation so easily flowed that they ended up going on a date the following night. Flash forward a couple of years later of dating, Hadey + Mo tied the knot in their hometown of Chicago, and then hopped on a plane to celebrate their honeymoon in Costa Rica. 

The two of them fell in love with Costa Rica so much that they just knew they had to come back to celebrate their anniversary…especially to take anniversary photos in Costa Rica since the rain on their wedding day out a damper on their wedding portraits. Thankfully, it only sprinkled for a couple minutes right before Hadey + Mo’s beach photos in Tamarindo — and that fast moving rain squall created the prettiest backdrop for one beautiful golden hour anniversary photo session!

First comes photography class, then comes a lifetime of photos together…

Jessie + Tanner’s love story began way back in high school when Jessie was a freshman & Tanner a junior. Because both of their last names started with “W”, they were seated next to each other in photography class. They both had significant others, but there was a spark — they’d innocently flirt, but once that semester ended, they went their separate ways.
