Animal Rescue Donation

We love our pets at Two Birds Photography and get excited when our clients include their furry friends in the celebrations. We are friends of all animals and believe they deserve our utmost respect as we share this world with them. One way we show our love and support is to make a donation to our favorite animal rescues when we book a wedding. So, if you're getting married and hire us to be a part of your day know that you'll also be supporting animals in need of help and homes.

Ashley and Danny

Ashley and Danny got married a few weeks ago at Galleria Marchetti which is one of my favorite Chicago venues. I mean what could be better than dancing under the night sky on a gorgeous late summer night? They got ready downtown Chicago followed by a first look and portraits on the Riverwalk. I loved capturing Ashley and Danny’s fun and expressive energy throughout the day. A couple of highlights was their dog Hank dressed in a tuxedo who made an appearance during their ceremony and the flaming donut station for dessert. Enjoy the photos! -Jake

Manuel and Brandon

One of my favorite things about being a wedding photographer is to be a witness and in the presence of couples who are wildly in love with each other. At Manuel and Brandon’s ceremony I remember thinking how palpable the feeling of love was in that room and how great it was to be present for that. You could feel the energy of support held in the cheers of their family and friends after their first kiss. I can’t forget to mention that they included their dog Lu in their ceremony. Lu had the softest ears and was so cute! Manuel and Brandon were such a joy to photograph and made my job so easy. Congratulations to the happy couple!! - Jake

Allison & Adam

Allison and Adam got married a few weeks ago on a beautiful sunny December morning in Chicago. They got ready at the Crowne Plaza Chicago West Loop and had a first look just around the corner at Mary Bartelme Park. Before they got married we took advantage of the weather and did a bunch of bridal party portraits around Chicago. We started at the Lasalle street bridge for some river scenes and then finished up with some skyline shots next to the Planetarium. Their sweet ceremony was in the pergola and had a delicious brunch reception in the tented room at Galleria Marchetti. It was such a pleasure working for Allison and Adam and their families. Enjoy this preview! -Jake

Robynn & Matt

Robynn and Matt were so lovely to spend time with during their wedding a few weeks ago. The two of them had a beautiful low-key morning at Villa D’ Citta which they had rented out for their families. They read letters from each other and had the sweetest first look.

We ubered through the city to take portraits at a few of their favorite spots, before coming to Galleria Marchetti. Their ceremony was absolutely beautiful, and everything was personalized exactly for them. We loved the music and their decorations. Emily Rodecker from Five Grain Events made sure that everything was exactly as it should be, and impeccably timed.

It was such a perfect day, and we were so honored to have been able to spend it with Robynn, Matt, and their families.

We wish them all the happiness in the world!
