Full Wedding Galleries

I understand it’s difficult viewing blog posts with 10-15 photos of nice sunny day “couple” photos and making a well-informed decision about the photographer you are considering for your wedding day. I suggest that you ask to see at least two or three full weddings that tell the complete wedding day story from start to finish. Below are links to a few diverse galleries with differing times of year and with venues ranging from traditional churches, hotel ballrooms to outdoor family farm weddings.

Chelsea and Gediminas’s was a summer wedding that took place at Chelsea’s family farm. The ceremony and family formals were photographed outdoors in natural light. With the family formals, I used off-camera lighting for just a little extra catchlights in the eyes yet retaining a natural, non-flash look to the photos. Their reception was held under an outdoor tent that began in the late afternoon and ended late into the evening. As with virtually all receptions, I used subtle off camera lighting.

Kara and Jason’s wedding ceremony and reception was held at the beautiful Medinah Country Club. Off-camera lighting was used at the reception to provide a bit of extra dimension and subtle rim lighting to separate the subject from the darker background in the venue.

Audrey and Collin’s wedding ceremony was held at Historic St. Patricks Catholic Church. We then visited their high school for a few staged photos before joining family and friends gathered at the reception. On and off-camera lighting was used during various stages of the day and for most of the reception.
