I honestly don’t know quite how to put this wedding in to words, so I think I need to let the pictures do most of the talking. This was my final Chicago wedding of the season – but my first Hyatt Regency Chicago wedding – and I don’t think I could have asked for a better way to say goodbye…until next year. Not only was every detail beautiful and perfectly planned (I’ve never seen a ballroom look like that before!) but the deep down feeling that you get when you just know how much a couple loves one another…Matt & Stefanie had that. Witnessing that intangible ‘thing’ brings tears to my eyes, gives me goosebumps…and keeps me excited about being a wedding photographer. {It also doesn’t hurt that Stef also looks like she stepped out of a magazine, that never hurts!}
Matt & Stefanie. Thank you so much for entrusting me with your wedding photos! I’ve been working away on your edits for the past week and it has been no easy task to decide which photos to include in this post. I hope that you love the preview, sip some extra champagne for me and enjoy the end of your Hawaiian honeymoon!
