Allie and Mike’s Chicago wedding was nothing short of a fairytale. With the dramatic backdrop of the city, grand venues, a stunning couple, and a captivating love story I felt like I was watching a movie. However, as cinematic as it was this weekend couldn’t have been more real. Allie and Mike are best friends and you can feel it. Their love radiates through every glance, laugh, and kiss. Throughout the editing and production process I have seen their wedding film many times but I still get chills and am moved. I have a million favorite moments but one that stands out is as Allie approaches Rockefeller Chapel with her dad, her dress being blown in the wind, and the orchestra builds to a crescendo as she’s about to see her groom. Gets me every time. It was a huge honor and pleasure to shoot alongside the incredibly talented Emilia Jane. Special thank you to Bianca and her amazing team at Estera Events for coordinating and planning such a perfect wedding. Thank you also to The University of Chicago, The Ivy Room, and Smith & Wollensky. Congratulations Mike and Allie, thank you for letting me tell your story and a weekend I’ll never forget!
