Maggie and Carlos’s wedding this past weekend was nothing short of magical, filled with countless personal and heartfelt moments. In keeping with Wedding Wednesday tradition, I’m thrilled to share three highlights from their special day that stood out to me the most.
#3. The Champagne Toast with the Bridesmaids. This wasn’t just any toast – more of a champagne POP and as the champagne flew, so did the laughter and joy, creating the most vibrant and unforgettable photographs of Maggie and her bridesmaids.
#2. Our impromptu bride and groom portraits near the stunning Naperville Riverwalk Grand Pavilion. A fortunate pocket of extra time allowed us to capture these moments where the light was simply magical, resulting in some of my favorite photographs of Maggie and Carlos.
#1. The couple’s first dance. Witnessing Maggie and Carlos move together in a beautifully choreographed dance was electrifying. The transition of songs from “Golden Hour” by JVKE to “Vivir Mi Vida” by Marc Anthony then again to “A Little Party Never Killed Nobody” by Fergie brought the guests from their seats to the dance floor, igniting a celebration that was as heartwarming as it was lively. It set the tone for the rest of the evening—an invitation to join in the joy and love of the day.
To Maggie & Carlos, it was an absolute honor to document your wedding day. Your love and joy were a photographer’s dream to capture, and I’m so excited about the shots that we got.
