Jean and Robert's Wedding

A couple of weeks ago i had the pleasure of photographing Jean and Robert's wedding at the beautiful ivy covered Kenilworth Union Church! The day started off a little bit wet but you wouldn't be able to tell by the photos.  This church had an amazing walkway with arches that we used for the first look and a bunch of the portraits.  Their reception was held at the Chevy Chase Country Club where we had some great late afternoon sunlight for a couple more portraits. When I did their engagement session they mentioned they were taking dance lessons and it paid off because their first dance was perfect! Enjoy looking at a few of my favorite photos from their day! -Jake

Pepsi and Andy's Wedding

Pepsi and Andy were such a joy to work with, only a few weeks ago, at the County Line Orchard.  They couldn't have ordered up a nicer day for their wedding, and we were so happy to be able to spend the day with them! We loved their beautiful florals by Phillip's Flowers, and sincerely enjoyed the company of everyone in the bridal party!

We can never complain when a wedding ceremony is performed in the shade of a giant Oak Tree and the reception ends with S'mores.

Simply perfect.

Happy Wedding Day to Pepsi and Andy.

Thanks for letting us be a part of it!

Kelly and Drew's Wedding

Kelly and Drew were married a couple of weeks ago at the beautiful and timeless Armour House in Lake Forest. I absolutely love photographing at this venue.  I always feel like I've traveled to Europe when I'm there. I was a little jealous of Drew's suit and Kelly looked absolutely stunning! I can't thank these guys enough for having me photograph their day! -Jake

Brittany and Ryan's Wedding

Brittany and Ryan were married a couple of weeks ago at the First Church of the Nazarene in Kankakee and their reception was held next to the beautiful Kankakee River at the Elks Country Club in St. Anne.  So much thought was put into every detail at this intimate wedding. One of Brittany's friends did her make-up and another friend handmade her dress.  I witnessed one of the sweetest ceremonies and first dances that I've ever seen at this wedding (Oh, and confetti canons and a ukulele!). Congratulations Brittany and Ryan! -Jake

Jaclyn and Kyle's Wedding

Jaclyn and Kyle were married a couple of weeks ago at the beautiful Madonna Della Strada Chapel at Loyola University in Chicago.  Madonna Della Strada is definitely a grand place to get married if you are having a church wedding!  After the ceremony we did a few indoor portraits at the Lincoln Park Conservatory. Thank you to Jaclyn, Kyle and the bridal party for braving the wetness to get some amazing shots. After that we went to their reception site that was held at the James hotel downtown. This couple has a terrific sense of style and I loved all the details of their wedding! -Jake
