Chicago Wedding Photographer: Destination Mexico

So this may be the most photographs that I have ever put on a blog...but I couldn't choose! How can you go wrong photographing in such a beautiful place.

I have so many things to say about this wedding...so here it goes!
I met Steve my freshman year of college the first day I moved in. He was making his rounds knocking on everyone's doors to introduce himself. We have been good friends ever since :) Ironically, my husband also met Steve around the same time...and of course they also became friends. Over the years our friendships have continued and grown through twists and turns and highs and lows within all of our lives. And then one day (I think at a Wilco show?) Steve introduced us to Krissy. We were so excited for Steve! Krissy is beautful, has great music taste (very important in our lives), and was genuinely nice. So now Steve was on a new path and we loved how happy he was.

When Steve got engaged to Krissy, Mike and I were thrilled. I had called it! Steve is the kindest, most thoughtful, and hilarious guy we know and we knew that Krissy was the perfect woman for him. I was so glad that they had found each other and were ready to have a life together filled with love and happiness.

So onto the wedding...MEXICO!
When we found out that this wedding was a destination wedding I think we booked our flight that day (not really, but you know what I mean). We would not have missed this wedding for anything. Then when Steve & Krissy decided to have me photograph the big day I was even more excited. Beautiful bride, warm sandy beaches...a photographer's delight!
So after a few bumps on our path to Mexico, the festivities began. I must admit that I do get teary-eyed at every wedding I photograph. I can't help it! And I probably get some blurry photographs from it, but I am a sucker for romance! The vows that Steve & Krissy shared were beautiful and straight from their hearts. It was such an honor to be able to photograph them and the moments that they shared becoming husband and wife.
So...
Congratulations Steve & Krissy!
I couldn't be happier for you! You are both incredible and are blessed to have each other.
Enjoy your sneak peek at some photographs from your wedding day. Of course, there are many more to come!
