Luminous Ravenswood Event Center Wedding

Beth and Matt’s wedding was gifted with beautiful light.

You may remember Beth and Matt from the engagement session we did with them in the summer. We just couldn’t wait for their wedding day. The couple handmade and personalized many decor items, including a wall of cones made from maps, a wooden display for family photos and a pinning map for guests to encourage the couple to travel. Their day began at the JW Marriott where we had beautiful light while Beth dressed in the luxurious bathroom. The couple had their first look right on LaSalle Street and from there we went to Lincoln Park to make some photos. Beth was unfazed by crickets, even mating ones, jumping on her dress. Then it was off to Ravenswood Event Center for the ceremony and reception.  The couple had guests hold candles during the ceremony, a casual dinner and lots and lots of dancing planned for the evening. We just had to spend a little time doing a goodnight photo session with them. We walked to the front entrance to do an artistic photo of Beth descending the staircase to Matt and the couple loved dancing in the empty neon lit hallway.

Congratulations Beth & Matt

Winter Wedding at Ravenswood Event Center

Lindsay and Chris had a February Wedding…

In Chicago. They did not let the cold weather or snow hold them back from going around the city for photos. Lindsay, in her grandmother’s gown, strapped on her Sorel boots and we photographed them downtown and in Lincoln Park. Although it was chilly, a fresh snowfall a couple of days before made the city look picturesque. All the bridesmaids and groomsmen also joined in the fun wearing their coats and boots, or just rocking the heels, for pictures. This couple had a beautiful ceremony on the third floor of The Ravenswood Event Center, and also had dinner and dancing on the third floor. This was a great way to showcase the space and the tree that Lindsay’s parents chopped and brought from Michigan on a truck. This event was also the premier of our new upgraded camera gear, and we just love the results! Congratulations to Lindsay and Chris!

Erudite Love at Ravenswood Event Center

It was a lovely summer day for Dan and Liz to be married.

They said their vows in the beautiful Ravenswood Event Center, with flowers by Exquisite Designs. We photographed the couple in a lovely Chicago park under a gorgeous willow tree and in a native garden in full summer bloom. Congratulations to Dan and Liz, may your love live long!
