Bonphotage Chicago Fine Art Wedding Photography - Drake Hotel - Jeannie & Tommy

You’ve heard us say that the Drake Hotel is one of our favorite Chicago wedding venues, with it’s grand ballroom and regal setting. Yet somehow, every time we shoot a wedding there, it just keeps getting better and better! Jeannie wore not one, but two wedding gowns and their adorable dog Murphy even made a few appearances! The weather was absolutely perfect for portraits at North Avenue beach with beautiful skyline views (and the Drake) in the background! We are swooning over their film scans and so excited to share a sneak peek of their perfect wedding day!

Congrats you two!

Bonphotage Chicago Fine Art Wedding Photography - Drake Hotel - Tara & Eddie

You haven't seen a wedding dress until you've seen Tara's wedding dress! Her Pronovias gown was fitting of a royal wedding - and a royal wedding it was! Every detail was planned beautifully and with love by her mother (who happens to be a designer!) Their wedding took place at the Drake and included all the bells and whistles - including a gorgeous old Rolls Royce! We can't get enough of Tara and Eddie's beautiful wedding photos! 

Congrats you two and enjoy this sneak peek!

Bonphotage Fine Art Bridal Wedding Photography - Editorial Published in One Fourth Magazine

Sometimes 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!

Bonphotage Fine Art Film Photography - Kristina, Kyle and Lou!

When Kristina called me explaining that she wanted to do a photoshoot as soon as possible because her pup was growing so quickly and she wanted to capture his puppy-hood, I was on board! I mean, could you deny Lou's ADORABLE little self?! OMG - ALL OF THE HEART EYES! You would't even know from the photos and happy smiles that it was a FREEZING Chicago day - this is really what growing, sweet family photos are all about! Enjoy!

Bonphotage - Destination Wedding Photography - Meghan + Tim

I am still swooning over Meghan and Tim's *gorgeous* Kansas wedding! These college sweethearts met at the University of Kansas eight years ago and they have never looked back! It was only fitting to have their wedding in the town of Lawrence, Kansas, where they first met. And boy, what a wedding it was...!

Complete with six (count it...SIX wedding cakes), a bagpipe processional, a full jazz band, a sunflower garden (*my heart*), and the sweetest little flower girls you ever did see, this day was fitting of a very deserving couple! P.S. did I mention how much I love the color red in photos?I

Congratulations you two - enjoy this sneak peek and thank you for choosing Bonphotage to document your love story! We couldn't be more honored to have been a part of your beautiful day :)

Bonphotage - Congress Hotel Wedding Photography - Carolina + Jeff

Carolina and Jeff tied the knot yesterday in a luxurious, European-inspired grand ballroom at the Congress Hotel in downtown Chicago!

Carolina was a beautiful vision in her mermaid silhouette, lace wedding gown and gold sparkly heels. Her best ladies wore violet colored chiffon bridesmaids gowns in alternating styles. No detail was overlooked including the brides photo of her grandfather kept in a locket around her bouquet *tear*

At several points during their wedding, I actually had to hold in the emotion myself, including when she and her father both shed a tear during the father daughter dance and when the groom's brother told the most hilarious stories during the best man speech! 

This sneak peek tells a small part of the romantic imagery and love that was at play throughout the day. It was an honor to capture your wedding Carolina and Jeff - thank you for letting Bonphotage be a part of your important day!

Special thanks to Cody for fabulously second-shooting and to Mark for cinematic capture of the day.
