After their adorable first look at the Art Institute, the lovebirds tied the knot at Galleria Marchetti surrounded by their closest family and friends.

Read MoreSometimes you just need to put a beautiful bride in a yellow vintage truck, surround her by lemons and vines and bring Palm Springs feels to Chicago! While we LOVE our real weddings, there is something to be said for feeding your creativity and playing with lighting and texture. When Flowers for Dreams asked us to capture a vibrant, colorful editorial for the main feature in One Fourth Magazine, it was a no-brainer!
The concept was brilliantly created by Unadorned Magazine and took place at Architectural Artifacts in Chicago's trendy West Loop. Pineapples and citrus adorned the gold cart and vintage couch from Bowery and Bash. We played with shooting film in the dark, lighting techniques and enough florals to keep us swooning for weeks after!
See more from this incredible shoot here and in the recent print issue of One Fourth Mag. Scroll down to see incredible Bonphotage Videography of the whole editorial!

Read MoreIt is always such an honor to see our film photography work published in prestigious magazines! We are so thrilled to finally share this gorgeous bridal editorial which took place at Shore Club Chicago, with some of the most talented vendors in the business!
From Trendy Bride Magazine, "While Chicago is well known for it's glorious skyline, it is often overlooked for it's equally beautiful shoreline. With this inspiration shoot, Storybook Weddings wanted to showcase the fact that midwestern brides need not hop a flight to CA to dig their toes in the sand on their wedding day! The Shore Club, perfectly situated along Lakeshore Avenue, made the perfect venue!"

Read MoreSue Ping and Hyun tied the knot at one of our favorite Chicago venues - Galleria Marchetti! Sue and Hyun got ready at the Godfrey Hotel and rented the entire roof deck for their detail shots and first look (a film photographer's dream!) The ceremony took place under the beautiful ivy- covered archway in Galleria Marchetti's courtyard and then the party moved inside for the tented reception in all it's pink and white glory! I can't get enough of their beautiful film scans!
Congratulations you two and enjoy this sneak peek!
