Chicago City Hall Winter Elopement With Two Brides
Chicago gave us one of our coldest days of the year for Sarah and Nichelle's wedding this past weekend but the ladies were troopers and head outside for a few images and I was just in love with the results. Both Nichelle and Sarah had the most contagious smiles and spending their wedding day with them was wonderful.
Chicago J2 Gallery Wedding
Jesse contacted me last year about photographing her destination wedding in Chicago. Both she and Sarah now live in Las Vegas, but it was in Chicago where they met and fell in love. They got married at J2 Gallery in Chicago which made an awesome wedding venue. I had never had the opportunity to photograph a wedding at an art gallery and now I can cross that off my list!
Their ceremony was emotional! Hearing the letters that they had written to each other expressing their love brought me to some tears behind my camera.
Jesse and Sarah were down for anything photo-wise, so we headed outside to get some great urban images showcasing Chicago. Congratulations you two! It was an amazing day!

Chapel in the Pines Same Sex Elopement
Pam contacted me at the beginning of the summer to see if I would be available to photograph her and her Leslie's wedding at Chapel in the Pines in Sycamore, Illinois. I was excited to be able to and she even moved the time a bit so I could be there! I had never been to the venue before but it was just gorgeous. The perfect setting for them as they both love the outdoors, trees, and flowers. The weather was perfect, a gentle breeze and not too hot and not too cold. Their love for each other was easily seen. They warned me they weren't good at having their photos taken but I quickly realized that was not the case. They were naturals and through these images I hope you can feel a little bit of the love that there was that day.
Congratulations Pam and Leslie!
