Kristen and Tom

This past weekend I photographed Kristen and Tom's wedding. They got married at St Clemens church which is one of my favorite churches to photograph. They're a little strict on how and where you can take pictures during the ceremony, but the inside of the church is beautiful. Between the ceremony and the reception we went to take some group shots at South Pond which is just north of lincoln park. The weather was awesome! It was just the right temperature the entire day. I had some fun creating one of my favorite shots (It's my tribute to the cover of the beatles abbey road album where they are crossing the road). Take a look for it in the slideshow.

The reception was held at the Park Newberry Library. It's a great setting for a reception. It's downtown, but not in the middle of everything, so it actually feels like you're in a park in the middle of the city. We had a blast the whole night. Special thanks goes out to Erin from Engaging Events by Ali for making the event run so smooth. And special thanks to Dustin from Toast and Jam who DJ'd at the reception.. he did an amazing job at blending different stlyes of music throughout the night. It's not everyday you hear a DJ seemlesly transition between Abba, Bon Jovi and the Polka.

If you attended the wedding and want to order pictures, make sure you go to www.pictage.com to pre-register. Everyone who registers for this wedding before it is officially released gets a $10 gift certificate from me. But hurry.. the pictures will be ready in the next week.

Hope you enjoy the slideshow!
