salvatore's chicago wedding | ned + alana


salvatoreschicagowedding_ellerosephoto_na-53 Oh my goodness. Where to begin with Ned + Alana and my love for  them? These two threw one hell of a Chicago wedding with a group of party animals surrounding them! I was in love with the whole day, Alana’s vision came together so perfectly – the colors, the style, all of it, I loved! Getting to photograph a love like Ned + Alana’s is a rare treat. They have this chemistry that is unmistakable, it radiates from them in the best way. When you are lucky enough to be around them, you know you are in the presence of true love. Getting to photograph that, well it was an absolute joy!! We started out the morning at the Mile North Hotel for some getting ready shots before their first look. salvatoreschicagowedding_ellerosephoto_na-1 salvatoreschicagowedding_ellerosephoto_na-3 salvatoreschicagowedding_ellerosephoto_na-4 salvatoreschicagowedding_ellerosephoto_na-6 salvatoreschicagowedding_ellerosephoto_na-5 salvatoreschicagowedding_ellerosephoto_na-7 salvatoreschicagowedding_ellerosephoto_na-8 salvatoreschicagowedding_ellerosephoto_na-2 salvatoreschicagowedding_ellerosephoto_na-11 salvatoreschicagowedding_ellerosephoto_na-9 salvatoreschicagowedding_ellerosephoto_na-12 salvatoreschicagowedding_ellerosephoto_na-13 Yessssssssssssss! salvatoreschicagowedding_ellerosephoto_na-20 salvatoreschicagowedding_ellerosephoto_na-15 salvatoreschicagowedding_ellerosephoto_na-14 salvatoreschicagowedding_ellerosephoto_na-16 salvatoreschicagowedding_ellerosephoto_na-17 salvatoreschicagowedding_ellerosephoto_na-19 salvatoreschicagowedding_ellerosephoto_na-21 Tiiiiiime for the first look!!
