Colorful & Contemporary Chicago wedding photographer.
More to come in the next few days, but here is a sneak peak from Dana and Nick’s wedding album. Their wedding ceremony was at the Wheaton Bible Church. After the ceremony PJ, took all of the bridal party and family wedding pictures at the Hurley Gardens in Wheaton. What a great spot! Dana and Nick had their wedding reception at The Hotel Arista. You’ll see how contemporary it is with a few pictures and the end of the movie with the bride and groom.
Enjoy!
We covered a lot of ground on Kate and Ryan’s wedding day in Chicago. We started at the Omni Hotel then Kate and Ryan had their first look of the day at the Peninsula Hotel. If you haven’t been to the bar in the Peninsula I suggest a visit. If you are looking for a unique spot for pictures in Chicago stop by the bar.
The Chicago tour continued with Michigan Ave and Olive Park for bridal party pictures before the ceremony at St. Josaphat Catholic Church. The reception was at one of my favorite reception venues in Chicago, the Chicago History Museum. The back are is perfect for cocktail hour and the main hall is a great space for a formal dinner.
As a photographer I am fairly spoiled in the profession I have chosen. A wedding is really just a big party. Yes, that means I am at parties every weekend. My weeks are filled with playing with my wife and boys, and often scattered with babies and young kids portrait sessions. Yes there is a lot of computer work that is far less glamorous, but we don’t need to get into that. What’s the point you ask? I love my job and I love all of the people it allows me to meet. I photographed Kate and Ted’s wedding about a year ago and last month I was able to photograph their new baby, James. Weddings and baby shoots are complete opposites. Wedding days are a little crazy. Okay a lot crazy, but fun. Baby shoot are much calmer and almost relaxing. Looking through the camera and seeing a happy little face like this makes everyday seem pretty special.
