Obsessed with Annette and Marcus and their insanely adorable engagement session! When these lovebirds inquired about flying out to Sunny California for their engagement session, how could I refuse?!

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 Wedding Photography - Shore Club Chicago Editorial - Published on Trendy Bride Magazine

It is always such an honor to see our film photography work published in prestigious magazines! We are so thrilled to finally share this gorgeous bridal editorial which took place at Shore Club Chicago, with some of the most talented vendors in the business! 

From Trendy Bride Magazine, "While Chicago is well known for it's glorious skyline, it is often overlooked for it's equally beautiful shoreline. With this inspiration shoot, Storybook Weddings wanted to showcase the fact that midwestern brides need not hop a flight to CA to dig their toes in the sand on their wedding day! The Shore Club, perfectly situated along Lakeshore Avenue, made the perfect venue!"

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 Destination Wedding Photography - Bermuda Hamilton Princess - Carole + Shameeke

Bermuda is an undeniably idyllic place that simply makes my heart happy! The colors on the island are a feast for the eyes (and the film photographer!) The pastel colored buildings in shades of pink and yellow, the lush cliffs overlooking the crashing over the crystal clear turquoise waters below; there is nothing more serene and peaceful. Add to this scene a stunning luxury resort, the Princess Hamilton, the sweetest couple and gorgeous florals - and MAGIC! I am so excited to share a sneak peek of Carole + Shameeke's wedding weekend, planned perfectly by Jo Ann Gregoli and captured by yours truly, Bonphotage. 

Enjoy and congratulations you two!
