Paul and Allison's Wedding

Paul and Allison got married downtown in Chicago on October 3rd. We were excited to shoot their wedding because the old world theme of her dress and our locations made it easy to capture the romantic vibe of the day. We loved the different tones we were able to create with some of the photos to elaborate on the old-fashioned theme Allison wanted.

Their love at first site portrait was shot near the train tracks to give an old world feel and show off Allison's vintage couture dress from Paris.

The ceremony took place at Lincoln Park Presbyterian Church (www.lppchurch.org) on Fullerton, which made a beautiful and romantic backdrop for their photos. The reception was at Bistrot Margot (www.bistrotmargot.com) on Wells.

Our favorite image of the day is above, shot outside Allison's old apartment building to reenact the couple's first kiss! While the rain on their wedding day was not ideal, it allowed for some intimate shots underneath an umbrella.

We hope you enjoy the photos!

With the Holidays soon to be in full swing, this is the perfect time of year to book your children for portrait sessions here at Audrey kelleR phoTography! I recently did a photo shoot of three beautiful young siblings: Ryli, Jude, and Skye (3 months, 7 years, and 10 years old). Photographing young children is such a joy because of what those photos provide their loved ones; A glimpse into not only who they are, but the men and women they will become. A particular favorite moment of mine is a sleeping baby, and I was glad to capture little Ryli napping during the shoot. Jude and Skye were great models too, and they had such a great time in front of the camera. Having your child's portrait professionally taken serves so much more than just a yearly card for the holidays, it's a great way for parents to really hold on to those moments in time when their children are so young. It allows for a precious keep-sake that both parents and their children will hold on to for years to come. (And remember, it may seem like it's months away, but the Holi-daze come fast, so be sure to call the studio and book your child's session before the season begins!)
