couples like the gorgeous pair featured in today’s post that keep reminding this photographer to not overthink, not despair and keeping going with the flow. Originally planning on a big wedding out east next year, Taylor and Danny - semi-new Chicago transplants - decided to scrap their plans still shrouded in uncertainty and downsize. What they didn’t compromise on was style, heart and fun.
What an incredible wedding!
Read MoreThere’s one very important word that is sometimes omitted from the “wedding experience”.
Sure, the gorgeous flowers, the fabulous dresses, the delectable food and age-old traditions are incredible in their own right, but for this photographer, one of the most powerful words you can associate with a wedding day is family.

Now, don’t get me wrong, My wedding day three years ago was amazing and lovely and all of the things one would hope their wedding will be.

Those are the five words that Brittaney and Marcus used to describe their relationship when asked, and let me tell ya, a description so apt there never was!
