Audrey and Will

Audrey and Will got married a couple of weeks ago at the beautiful Hyatt Lodge in Oakbrook. After some getting ready photos and a first look with Audrey’s dad they did a first look, vow exchange and some portraits in the woods across the street. Their ceremony was held on a patio that overlooked the lake that’s right next to the hotel and was followed by an intimate reception that was designed and coordinated by the fabulous Molly Masters of Jam Wedding Productions. Thank you to Nick Holstein who helped me out as second shooter. And thank you to Audrey and Will for having us capture their wedding day!

Gabriella and Patrick

Gabriella and Patrick got married on a gorgeous sunny day in September. Their ceremony took place at the beautiful St. Elizabeth Seton Church in Orland Hills followed by bridal party portraits in downtown Frankfort. Their reception was held at the amazing Tuscany Falls in Mokena. Their day was packed full of special details and memories for us to capture. Some of my favorites were the first look with Gabriella and her bridesmaids, the groomsmen toast with the custom beer glasses, the champaign bottle with the bridal party on the fire escape, and their exit with bubbles out of the church. Congratulations Gabriella and Patrick!

Ahnaleza and Mark

Ahnaleza and Mark got married a few weeks ago in Chicago at the classy Salvatore’s restaurant. The day started at an air BNB in the neighborhood where we had some fun with champaign toasts with the ladies and some album cover group photos with the guys. Their sweet ceremony was held in Salvatores and we did some quick portraits in the garden next door while their room was flipped for the reception. They ended their day with some great dance moves and a nighttime stroll under the street lamps. A huge thank you to Ahnaleza and Mark for having me photograph their wedding day!

Leigh and Steve

Leigh and Steve got married a couple of weeks ago at the Glen Club in Glenview. We love all of the beautiful florals that were done by Kasia Hyzy. Their cute puppy Wiggles was one of the flower girls and made her way into a ton of the pictures. We did a first look and portraits at a location that was dear to their hearts: Little Bear park and Gallery Park. We were so honored to photograph their day and are excited to share some of their photos! Thank you to Nicholas Holstein for being my second photographer for the day. -Jake
