My second wedding of 2017 took me to Lemont, Illinois. There, I photographed this very loving and fun couple. The weather was hot. And humid. It didn't rain until well into the reception. For this, I think everyone was grateful, since the reception was in a tent! The decorations were simple and striking, featuring sunflowers and elephants. The bride chose me as her photographer because of my philosophy. I try to stay out of the way, yet be everywhere. I don't force myself onto the wedding party and the photos are representative of the day as it unfolded. The story is best told by the love of the couple. I couldn't orchestrate that if I wanted to.
