A classic and romantic West Loop wedding 5.7.22 Oh my gosh, Adam and Travis’ West Loop wedding was a dream! I had met Adam and Travis the year before when we took engagement photos in Lincoln Park, and I was so excited for the big day. Side note: engagement sessions are like, my favorite thing […]

Daniel & Diane at Bottom Lounge

D & D Forever 9.24.22 Where to start with this perfect couple? Daniel and Diane had a personal, nontraditional vision for their wedding at Bottom Lounge.
