Bonphotage - Downtown Chicago Engagement Photography - Allie + Kenny

There are so many things I loved about Allie + Kenny's engagement session!. The weather was sunny and mild, they were the sweetest couple with the CUTEST Pomeranian pup name Barley, AND umm..her RING! Talk about a stunner...!

We had a great time walking around the city to some of Chicago's most iconic locations including the Chicago Riverwalk, Wrigley Building, Michigan Avenue and La Salle Street Bridge. This sweet couples loves Chicago views, so it makes sense that they tie the knot next year at the Loew's Hotel roof deck in downtown Chicago (with some of the most stunning city views in the city!)

We can't wait to capture your big day next year!

Enjoy this sneak peek you two!

In my opinion, there is little better than Autumn colors and foliage to serve as a stunning backdrop for engagement photos!

We had a great time at downtown Chicago's Milton Lee Olive Park and Chicago River for their engagement session and we can't wait for their wedding next year!

Bonphotage California Wedding Photography - Clarke Estate - Rob + Ciarra

Bonphotage California Wedding Photography - Clarke Estate - Rob + Ciarra

I wanted to wait to receive the film scans from this *stunning* California wedding, but I simply could not wait another minute! When I took Ciarra and Rob's engagement photos last year in Chicago and heard about their plans to be married in an intimate wedding at the beautiful Clarke Estate in southern California, I knew I had to capture their special day!

Surrounded by family and friends, Ciarra walked down the aisle in the courtyard of the Clarke Estate with a stunning organic backdrop of dahlias and hydrangeas! And Rob's face when he saw his gorgeous bride...priceless! As a photographer, I love capturing real, authentic emotion and this wedding was full of it! Happy tears, emotional speeches and genuine love was everywhere and I am so honored to share a sneak peek of their most precious day!

Congratulations Rob and Ciarra - may you continue to forever share the love that is so evident between you!

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 :)

Can we just talk for a minute about how ADORABLE this pup is?! Give him a stick and he will steal the show! We had a great time photographing Kady and Kyle at Milton Lee Olive Park on a perfect Autumn day! The sky was clear and Ohio Street Beach was the perfect location to cozy up with a warm flannel blanket!

These college sweethearts met over five years ago while both attending Purdue from out of state. They couldn't be sweeter and more down to earth - as you can tell by their playful beach engagement session! And of course, we needed to include a little Purdue love!

Bonphotage - Congress Hotel Wedding Photography - Carolina + Jeff

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.

After over a month of carefully planning the perfect proposal, Eldho flew to Chicago from New York to propose to his sweetheart Simy with a *stunning* engagement ring! With the beautiful Chicago skyline as a backdrop, he dropped to his knee and asked Simy to be his forever. Your photoshoot was a breeze after that as this happy couple was all smiles!

Bonphotage Wedding Photography - Chicago Cultural Center + The Gage - Adina + Elias

Adina and Elias tied the knot yesterday at the iconic Chicago Cultural Center under the stunning stained glass Tiffany's dome! Adina wore a minimal, modern white dress with an open back that was *to die for* and carried an all-white rose bouquet.

After 8 years of dating, this couple was so ready to say yes to spending their lives together and I can't think of a better location than the stunning cultural center. The love between this sweet couple was undeniable and it was truly an honor to capture their special day!

After saying "I do," we headed over to Millennium Park where lots of laughs were had before continuing the party at Michigan Avenue's The Gage Restaurant!

Enjoy this sneak peek and congratulations you two!
