Lindsey and Eric

I photographed Lindsey and Eric’s wedding ceremony at Company 251 last September and I finally got to photograph their reception at the same location the other week. It was kind of strange to pick up where we left off month ago but it was also wonderful! I felt like I got to relive their beautiful wedding day all over again. Also, I don’t usually get rest before the reception which sometimes I need and I feel like I got one really really long nap in after their ceremony. So I was all fired up and full of energy. I loved being able to join in the celebration of Lindsey and Eric’s marriage. Congratulations!!

Lindsey and Eric

A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of photographing Lindsey and Eric’s wedding ceremony in Aurora at one of the most stylish venues I know of called Company 251. It’s basically a giant photo studio that you can get married in with tons of places to do portraits. Even their elevator is amazing! We started the day with their bridal party and family walking around downtown Aurora. It had rained all morning but the weather cleared up and became a perfectly sunny day minutes before their first look. Photographing Lindsey, Eric, and their party was like hanging out with friends. They are such a great group of people and I cannot wait to photograph their reception in 2021! -Jake

Marionne and Juan

Marionne and Juan had a gorgeous winter wedding at Company 251. It ended up being a really cold and snowy day but we braved the weather and sneaked outside for a few quick shots. Their intimate ceremony was held on the first floor where their dog, Henry, stole the show as the ring bearer. After a few cocktails everybody went upstairs for the reception. While the guests were eating, the first floor was flipped and fitted with a collection of mirror balls for the dancing. The effect was stunning and made for one of the prettiest first dances we’ve seen. Congrats to Marionne and Juan on a beautiful wedding, we are so excited for you to welcome your baby this coming spring!!
