I knew I wanted to capture Natalie's wedding to her love Pat the first time I met her! Her smile and excitement about her wedding was contagious and I left the meeting hoping she'd hire me! Today, I had the pleasure photographing them for their Chicago Riverwalk engagement session - how cute are they?!
I can't wait for their wedding next year! Enjoy this sneak peek!

Read MoreI met Nick and Lindsey on a *freezing* Chicago day for their engagement photos. Despite the rigid temperatures, these two had a great attitude, posed beautifully for their session and their love shined through as though in the images as though it weren't horribly uncomfortable outside. From that moment on, I knew these two would be a joy to work with and I couldn't wait for their big day the following Autumn!
Their wedding was filled with happy smiles, sweet details - including an artist who sketched special moments at the wedding, and lots of dancing! I am so happy for them and hope you all enjoy this sneak peek!
Special thanks to Madeline and Rachel for second shooting this beautiful day!

Read MoreCarolina 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.

Read MoreSeptember is my favorite month. The weather and *incredible* light during Dana and Shaun's Chicago engagement session reminded me why I am such a lover of Autumn.

Dana and Shaun are tying the knot in North Carolina next year and we couldn't be happier for them!
Enjoy this sneak peek!

The whole scene was something dreams are made of and we are honored to have captured their beautiful day!
