Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Wilder Mansion Garden Wedding - Caitlin & Mark
It’s the perfect moment to relive this day as I sit inside on my computer avoiding this -3 day. Mark & Caitlin’s outdoor garden ceremony at the Wilder Mansion was pure joy, warmth, sunshine, and life this summer. …and this is just a taste of what’s to come for their larger celebration in 2021! It truly is a gift to get to have the loveliest couples for two years in a row despite the circumstances that has surrounded this past year. As much as we’re looking forward to this upcoming year, we’re also so thankful for Caitlin & Mark’s intimate wedding ceremony and getting to be there to capture their first look and “I do’s”. Everything about this day is filling us back up and gearing us up for more days like these. Caitlin & Mark, it was such a treat! Cannot wait to capture you both again with more of your loved ones by your side!

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Monte Bello Estate Wedding - Jeremy & Jackie
There are some days that stand out to us for a 1,000 reasons and this day was one of them. I could go on and on about Jackie & Jeremy's wedding day at the Monte Bello Estate. One of the very first things we noticed about Jackie & Jeremy is that they not only love each other, (the romantic lovely dovey love that no wedding is complete without) but, they're genuinely each other's best friend. Their laughs, the inside jokes, the way Jeremy looked at her the entire day, and the way Jackie was so calm, peaceful, and confident from the moment we met up with her; This day was so refreshing and a reminder that love, in its truest form is patient, kind, honoring, protects, and trusts. We started this day off with one of the most beautiful first looks and vow readings that we've ever witnessed. Jeremy waited for Jackie on the pier and his tears had us all tearing up. They promised themselves to one another privately on that dock and we were humbled to have been the witnesses. These two were so at ease. So calm. So ready to be married. I really could go on and on, but I'll let these sun-kissed images speak for themselves. Jackie & Jeremy, it was an honor and a privilege to document this day. We're humbled and we're so thankful! And many thanks go out to their entire team who made this day such a joy:

Lake Geneva Wedding Photographers | Ian & Symone - Drake Hotel Wedding
Their story is as sweet as they are! Ian and Symone grew up across the street from one another. It took him some time, but Ian finally asked her out and she said yes! Fast forward to this perfect day: Their classic & elegant Chicago wedding at the historic Drake Hotel. This day was a true fairy tale and the perfect way to celebrate the first day as Mr. & Mrs. Sherwood! The skies opened up once or twice, but it made it all the more lovely. Y'all, Chicago is just beautiful come rain or shine! And these two never worried once about it! When we stepped foot into their reception at The Drake, it took our breath away. Polly's Petals & Particulars completely out did herself! Every inch was dripping with florals and hundreds of candles. The room was just as gorgeous as Symone was in her classic Enzoani gown! What a pleasure getting to work alongside her team: Cora Downing from Bella G Makeup and her hair artist, Caila Gillespie! Also, let's not forget about what a treat it is to capture all the joy alongside their videography team from Leap Weddings! This wedding day has everything. So much joy, happy tears, and the perfect inspiration for the classic bride! Thank you, Symone & Ian, for letting us have the honor of capturing your gorgeous celebration! Special thanks and love go out to this entire team who made this day so perfect:
