Bonphotage Chicago Film Wedding Photography, Videography and Content Creation - Armour House - Harriet & Justin

There are weddings that make a lasting impression, and then there are weddings like Harriet and Justin's — a flawless blend of romance, elegance, and timeless beauty! Set against the backdrop of the breathtaking Armour House in Lake Forest, Illinois, their fall wedding captured the essence of romance, with a hint of cinematic magic, thanks to the soft, nostalgic beauty of film photography.

The Armour House, a grand estate with its ivy-clad exterior and classic architecture, was the ideal setting for their sophisticated affair. The house, nestled among meticulously landscaped gardens, was a sight to behold, enhanced by the seasonal beauty of fall. The venue exuded romance at every turn, from the winding pathways leading to the entrance to the sweeping staircase that would play such a pivotal role in this unforgettable day.

From the moment Harriet arrived in her gown, it was clear that every detail of this wedding had been thoughtfully considered. Harriet looked radiant! Justin, too, was the epitome of elegance in a classic tuxedo, his joy at marrying the woman of his dreams radiating through his smile (and joyful tears!)

Their private vow reading and ceremony was an emotional one, filled with heartfelt moments and tender exchanges, the kind that make you believe in love at first sight.

Bonphotage photographers Brit and Jasmine did an incredible job capturing these intimate, cinematic moments with film photography. There’s something about the grainy, textured quality of film that brings a level of depth and emotion to a photograph, making it feel like a captured memory rather than just an image. The natural light of the day, combined with the film’s nostalgic quality, created images that seemed to have a story all their own!

From candid moments of joy to quiet glances shared between the couple, the analog photography preserved the essence of their love in such a tangible, beautiful way. Each photo seemed to capture more than just an event — it told a story. The soft tones, the romantic lighting, and the genuine emotion conveyed in every shot made Harriet and Justin's wedding feel like it was lifted from the pages of a fairy tale.

Harriet and Justin’s wedding was a perfect reflection of their love — classic, elegant, and timeless. From the stunning Armour House to the delicate details, every moment was steeped in romance and beauty. The combination of a perfect fall day, the grandeur of the venue, and the vintage charm of film photography made this wedding an unforgettable celebration of love. It was a day to remember, a day captured in time, a day that will live forever in the hearts of all who were lucky enough to witness it!

Congrats you two!
