You guys....ALL THE HEART EYES!!! My jaw dropped when I pulled up to the Bayou Oaks Plantation in New Orleans. The picturesque estate was straight out of a fairy tale! But the gorgeous setting was just the tip of the iceberg of Katie & Scott's DREAM wedding! Everything from Katie's stunning gown (which she helped hand-stitch!) to their beautifully choreographed first dance to the sweet moment when their daughter Kamala gave Katie away at the ceremony - it was the stuff dreams are made of! The masquerade-themed wedding included masks for the bridal party and all kinds of New Orleans special touches like French crepes and a crawfish boil! The party went well into the night and we just can't stop swooning over these images! Congrats you two and enjoy this sneak peek!

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 MoreI met with a couple interested in wedding photography today and I asked them what abut our photos made them reach out to us over all the other photographers. I expected to hear something like "we love film photography" or "we saw this photo in such and such magazine," but their answer caught me surprise. The bride-to-be said "I think what really drew me to your website was the fact that it looked like your couples were genuinely having a really fun time working with you!" I loved her answer, as obviously, aside from beautiful photography, that is our goal!
When Bilu + Hao's film scans came in today right after my meeting and I saw the laughter and unmistakable happiness, I realized she was right. We DO have so much fun with our clients! Maybe because they're *this* stinking cute??!! We love our jobs at Bonphotage. That is all.
