Chicago has been one of my favorite cities to photograph since my first visit 17 years ago. Over the years, I photographed Chicago with a film point-and-shoot digital camera, and most recently, DSLR cameras. No matter what I’m using, I try to find interesting angles and objects to photograph. Anyone who is a fan of architecture, public transit, or big cities will love photographing the Windy City. As a wedding and engagement photographer, I walk around the city looking for picturesque locations where I love to photograph brides and grooms. Some of the images below are examples from a Summer 2018 trip to scout locations around Chicago’s Magnificent Mile and Chicago River.

On a 93-degree day in June 2018, I photographed a stunning couple at Memorial Hall Dayton and Antioch Shrine Center Dayton, both wedding venues in downtown Dayton, Ohio.  The wedding was short and sweet, and due to having no air-conditioning, it was sweltering in the grand lobby of Memorial Hall.  After we boarded the party […]
