Wedding Wednesday: Alyx & Andrew

It’s Wedding Wednesday! This past Saturday we got to shoot Alyx & Andrews wedding up in Arlington Heights and it was such a fun day! We started out in the morning with the ladies where they had champagne to celebrate. (Always one of my favorites!) Followed by a super sweet first look with Dad, more getting ready, a perfect ceremony and tons of Bridal Party photos! This Bridal Party was fantastic! We started off at the church, got a few shots before everyone got onto this amazing trolly and headed over to North School Park. It’s a smaller park, but it was perfect for us and just down the street from Metropolis. 🙂

My favorite part of the day though was working with Alyx and Andrew. They share an amazing chemistry that really showed through all day. From the photos during the ceremony, shots of just the two of them and their first dance photos. These two are truly meant to be and I could not have been more honored to capture this special day for them. 🙂

Thank you so much for having us as your wedding photographers! Enjoy this sneak peek and can’t wait to share more soon!

This was such a cute little spot outside the church! So glad we were able to sneak a few shots here before taking off. 🙂

Seriously, such a fun group! We did a lot of photos and this Bridal Party was game the whole time!

Alyx’s dress was so stunning! The dress, the train, we had to get a shot of her twirling around. 🙂
