A blog of our current photography work.
The dawn of beauty
And early rays of light
Wash over us
Hold us close, dear music
As we sing and dance
Over the hills that meet us
And the valleys that kiss us
Green is the color of our hearts
And the cool river heals our feet
We call upon the northern lights
They flicker upon our love
They lick and jump and spiral
And play upon Celtic tunes
As we sway the night away
Blessed are these days
Between us and always
Last month Marcie and Montel got married at the amazing Harry Caray’s ballroom in Lombard. Their ceremony took place in one portion of the ballroom that was later flipped in the rest of the reception. It rained just enough for some good luck and we were able to get out to Lyman woods for some portraits in the forest! We had a blast hanging out with Marcie and Montel all day and wish them congratulations!! Thank you to Rachel Langlois for her amazing work as my second photographer. As always she did a terrific job!
Last year I photographed Maggie and Patrick’s intimate backyard ceremony and last month they had their church ceremony at the gorgeous Ascension Catholic Church in Oak Park followed by a reception with all of their family and friends at Venue West in Chicago (put together by the amazing Clementine Custom Events). Congrats to Maggie and Patrick a second time and I’m so happy that they were able to finally have their party!! A special thanks to my friend Ryan Timm for capturing all these beautiful photos for me. He’s the best!!
Congratulations to Colleen and Pat who got married recently at the Chicago Athletic Association in downtown Chicago. The Chicago Athletic Association is such a beautiful, unique, and historic venue to get married at. We started with a first look in the White City ballroom and then took a few portraits on the first floor marble staircase. We finished up with a few more photos around their ballroom before their gorgeous ceremony in the same room. Their cocktail hour was held in the Madison ballroom and we enjoyed music throughout the evening by the amazing Cagen Orchestra. Enjoy a few of my favorite images from their day!
