Chris & Kim have an interesting story. They’ve been dating for 16ish years and finally tied the knot! Kim is one of my wife’s very good friends and I was honored to be asked to document their wedding day. Aside from my wife standing up in the wedding and giving me all of her creative input (cough, cough, instructions all day ) the day could have not gone better. (Just kidding honey!).

I’m going to follow up this post with another one specifically about Chris - very cool story line there.

Anyway, the ceremony was held at Willow Creek Community Church in Barrington, IL. The reception was held at the Holiday Inn in Rosemont which has a very cool Penthouse style banquet hall.

Chris & Kim are a very special couple and I wish them the very best in the years to come!

Take a look at some of my favorite shots from the day as well as a slideshow…

Jack and Margot are another couple that is getting married about a month from now and we were finally able to get in an engagement session. Actually we brought along their super cute dog and he joined in on the photo action

We had a fun time walking around and snapping some relaxed portraits in their cozy neighborhood in Evanston.

Here are a few shots from the session!

I shot a wonderful wedding for Michael and Violet a couple weeks ago. We had a beautiful day in between all the soggy Chicago weather. The ceremony took place at St. Mary of the Angels in Chicago, with a reception at Beveldere Chateau Banquets in Palos Hills. It was a really cool Polish heritage infused reception - super fun since I’m mostly Polish myself Be sure to checkout the slideshow link below to see some of the great reception shots.

I’d also like to thank Jim for coming out to second shoot for me!

Jim and Caryn will be getting married in a few short weeks. We were able to sneak in an engagement session downtown in between all of the rain that we’ve been getting around Chicago! Caryn was able to get permission to do some shots at Wrigley Field! Caryn is a super huge Cubs fan and is trying to rub some of that off on Jim

Here are a few shots from the awesome session!
