Bonphotage Autumn Chicago Engagement Photography - Carole + Shameeke

This gorgeous power couple is tying the knot next year in Bermuda and we cannot wait to capture their island wedding (I mean really, does it get better than that?!)

We had a fabulous time walking around Milton Lee's Olive Park amidst the stunning Autumn foliage for their engagement session. Carole wore a stunning long blue dress and those shoes...all of the heart eyes! The love between them was evident and we are so happy they found each other!

Enjoy this sneak peek you two!

Bonphotage Wedding Photography - James + Sarah!

James and Sarah tied the knot this weekend in a picturesque setting complete with horse racing and a string quartet! Sarah and James started their day with a beautiful ceremony overlooking the sprawling Arlington International Racetrack on a sunny Chicago Saturday. The party then moved inside where Sarah had carefully placed sweet photos of the couple throughout the sun-drenched reception hall. Thoughtful touches permeated the wedding, including table settings with photos of the couple's favorite Chicago locations, pink and yellow mimosas, and tear-jerking speeches.

We were honored to capture their special day! Congratulations on your next chapter James + Sarah!
