Bonphotage Fine Art Engagement Photography - Lincoln Park, Chicago - Carli & Matt

It was such a breeze photographing Carli and Matt because their energy was contagious! Despite the chilly Chicago weather, they were all smiles and such good sports! For their engagement session, we started at Chicago's North Avenue beach, with iconic Chicago skyline and Lake Michigan views. We then hopped over to the Lily Pond for beautiful autumn color backdrops. I just love how many beautiful places there are to photograph in this town! Congrats you two and enjoy this sneak peek!

Bonphotage Fine Art Chicago Engagement Photography - Jamie + Jose

I remember vividly sitting in a cafe in Paris, while on site for a destination wedding, when Jamie called me to inquire about her upcoming wedding. Most importantly, she said, "we want to include our two English Bulldogs in our engagement photos." Well, if you know me at all, you know she was speaking to my language! A French Bulldog owner myself (with another joining the fam next month!), I have a special place in my heart for these short-nosed, gremlin-like, PERFECT creatures. All I can say, is I could have photographed this adorable foursome ALL DAY! Enjoy this sneak peek you two!

Bonphotage Fine Art Chicago Wedding Photography - The Shrine of Our Lady of Pompeii & 19 East - Courtney + Kyle

I can't say enough good things about Courtney and Kyle and their beautiful wedding! From her classic gown, to portraits at Chicago's architectural treasure - Union Station, to the emotional ceremony (where Courtney couldn't quite wait for the first kiss) to the fun dance party at 19 East, it was really a perfect day! Even mom and dad were tearing it up on the dance floor (which is what weddings are all about, right?!)

We are honored to have been a small part of their wedding day and we are so excited to share a sneak peek into their day! Congrats you two!

Bonphotage Fine Art Destination Wedding Photography - Dallas, Texas - Amie + Ben

Amie and Ben's wedding was one for the books! This stunning couple flew from their home in New York City to the bride's hometown of Dallas, Texas to tie the knot and we couldn't be happier to have been a part of it! This couple was surrounded by so much love all day and their ceremony was just about the sweetest we've ever seen. The sun starting to set behind them as they exchanged vows was just the icing on the cake! Guests smiled, laughed, enjoyed some real Texas bbq under beautiful strands of twinkle lights hung from the ceiling at historic Winfrey Point. The couple had a pubic first dance in front of their loved ones and ended with the night with their own private last dance. A perfect end to a perfect evening!

Bonphotage Fine Art Chicago Wedding Photography - Hillary + Brad

Sometimes even in the middle of the busy wedding season, it is necessary to take a pause and shoot for the love of creativity and film. I couldn't pass up a chance to photograph this gorgeous editorial with models Hillary and Brad and some of the most talented names in the wedding industry including Netta BenShabu Bridal, Flowers for Dreams and Makeup by Jaycie! I am just swooning over these film scans and can't wait to see them published!

Bonphotage Fine Art Chicago Wedding Photography - St. Michael's Church & 19 East - Lindsay + Brian

From the first time I spoke with Lindsay on the phone, I was super excited about capturing her wedding! Lindsay and Brian flew in from Manhattan to have their ceremony in Chicago, and more specifically, at St. Michael's in Old Town, where her mother and grandmother were also married. After the ceremony, the party moved to 19 East (one of our favorite Chicago venues!) where Food For Thought served international fare from all the countries around the world where the newlyweds have traveled. A wedding centered around travel with thoughtful details? My kind of wedding! The whole day was planned seamlessly by Marquette Events.

Congrats you two and enjoy this sneak peek!

Bonphotage Fine Art Chicago Wedding Photography - Saddle & Cycle - Katie + Dan

If you think a little rain (ok, torrential downpours) were going to interfere with Katie and Dan's wedding day at the beautiful Saddle & Cycle, think again! These two fun-loving people couldn't take the smiles off of their faces from the morning where they began the day surrounded by their closest friends to the end of the night when they danced the night away! Planned to perfection by Wrap it Up Parties, the day couldn't have run smoother! I couldn't help but smile when Dan dipped Katie for their grand first dance moment and maybe even shed a tear during her father's sweet toast. We are so grateful to have been a small part of their perfect day!

Congrats you two and enjoy this sneak peek!
