We got to shoot Annie + Jonathan not just once, not just twice, but THREE times! Yes, we were there when he popped the questions at Chateau Elan. We were there when we captured the season of their engagement and yes… we were there when they said, “I do!”

Your resilience through planning a wedding through a pandemic impressed us. It inspired us. Many challenges came, but you fought it through like champs. Date changed, weather changed, venue changed, etc… but, COME WHAT MAY, you STILL kept your smile on.

These days, we have been watching movies with our kids that are inspirational true stories on athletes that have overcome the impossible. I love seeing how it impacts our kids and even if it’s a little, I want them to see what “not quitting” looks like and that they can do the same thing or something even greater.

This week as we were all settling down from our kids going to school and getting adjusted to the new schedule, we had a few serious talks with our kids. The moral of the conversation was this… that we all have our own journey in life.

Pamela + DeAngelo / Downtown Chicago & Michigan Avenue Wedding

I grew up with parents who were complete homebodies. They never really had any strong desire to travel and if they did, it was at most a 2-3 hour drive. That was enough for them and because that’s all I knew growing up, that was good enough for me too.

You can sense someone’s joy right away when you meet them. Some people just have these smiles that are irresistible… it’s contagious and you can’t help but smile yourself. Vanessa + James were both like that on their wedding day.
