I am very excited to post my first Wedding of the year!
Sheila and David had their Ceremony and Reception at the super cool, ultra colorful Carnivale in Chicago. Their Wedding party followed suit, and dressed in various jewel tone and bright colors. After taking some photos during Sheila’s preparations, we had a “First Look” for Sheila and David. I’m not exaggerating when I say that it was one of the most beautiful, emotional First Looks I have had the pleasure of photographing.
We took some photos at their hotel, The Crowne Plaza, and then headed straight to Carnivale for more creative photos of the two of them, and lots of family photos. Throughout the day, it was so easy to see how important family is to them. Their ketubah signing was also very emotional, and then followed a lovely inter-faith Jewish/Catholic Ceremony to honor both sides of their families. The party started soon after, and I got to captured one of my favorite things; The Hora!
Here is a slideshow of the highlights of the day, with music! Click on the screenshot:

You’ll be seeing Sheila’s sister Nicole on the blog after September, as I’m shooting her Wedding too!
Special thanks to my 2nd Shooter Nicoletta! I will be posting some of her photos in the upcoming ‘Associates’ section of my site.
