chicago winter wedding | john + peggy

Yes, yes, yes to a brand new wedding season! Kicking of the 2017 Chicago wedding season with John + Peggy was such a treat! Let me see – I have known both of these fellow EP-ers for a super long time – so getting to come back to witness them get married through my lens was so amazing! They are two of the kindest people, and just so happy + mellow – so getting to photograph their wedding day was really the best. It was jam packed with style + inspiration from the invites, to the colors, to Peggy’s stunning dress- paired with nonstop smiling on John’s face – I loved it alllllll! I started the day with Peggy and the ladies while Maggie was across the street with John and  the guys. Getting to do a first look between their houses was my favorite – such a fun part of their story to capture!  Black, white + gold – have you seen my website?! I was just a little bit obsessed : )  Traditions always get me!
All the bridal first looks please.
The best!  I seriously loved how John could not take his eyes off of Peggy all day long – it was delightful to capture!  Look at all this style! I was obsessed.  Faaave : ) I love finding artsy shots like this from my super amazing second shooters – especially because watching Maggie take this with a bouquet of flowers in front of her faec had made me laugh – I always love the end product! Killin’ that groom look. Those real laughs – always my the best.  Those flowers!!!  Time to get married! Marrrried!! You guuuuys – come one now!
