Leah & Paul | Married!

Continuum Photography — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 22:36:02 +0000

Looking back at these pictures, you would think that Leah and Paul’s wedding was held in the dead of winter. However, they were actually married at the end of March in Evanston, IL. Typical to Chicago you never know what to expect regarding the weather. The day earlier it was sunny and sixty, the following day was pretty nice as well. But what I love about our Chicago couples is they never let the weather get in the way of having a great time.

Leah and Paul are really amazing people. They are so warm and kind. They seem to be a perfect fit and the love they share is very complimentary and supportive. Their ceremony held at St. Nicholas Catholic Church was humorous, emotional, and moving. I would describe myself as spiritual but not necessarily religious and often times the tradition of a religious ceremony goes over my head but I was genuinely captivated by their service and will always remember how poignant it was. Their reception was nothing short of fabulous too. Leah spent a lot of time making sure all the little details were perfect and it really showed. The Venutis banquet hall was meticulously decorated and so elegant.

Here are some of our favorite shots from their day. Hope you enjoy!

Erica & Jeremy – Engagement Session

Continuum Photography — Sun, 18 Apr 2010 04:15:51 +0000

Erica & Jeremy took the big West Loop walk with me back in late fall of last year for their engagement session in Chicago. I’m pretty spontaneous as a photographer, and a lot of the time instead of planning out each and every location I like to pick a starting point and just take a walk and see what’s out there. Chicago is a great city for this approach as there are no shortage of interesting backgrounds to photograph our couples, especially the very expressive graffiti. Erica & Jeremy are a lot of fun to take a late afternoon stroll with, and were really at ease in front of my camera. This was definitely one of my favorite sessions of 2009, and we’re really looking forward to shooting their wedding in October.

It’s true the Fauxtobooth is a lot of fun, but the Fauxtobooth with props adds an entirely new level of fun to the already high levels of fun. It’s a lot of fun. Did I mention it’s fun? Check out some highlights from Robin & Ryan’s booth at the Hotel Allegro.
