About this portfolio

Documentary Chicago weddings, edited like editorial.

For fifteen years we've documented Chicago weddings the same way — quietly, calmly, in the background. As a small studio of two photographers and a cinematographer, we're present enough to catch the small things — a private joke between the two of you, a tear from a parent during the toasts — but never directing the day. That documentary spine is what holds the work together; warm, editorial color and pacing is the finish.

You'll see frames below from Cheney Mansion, Morgan Manufacturing, The Drake Oak Brook, Northfork Farm, Concorde Banquets, the Chicago lakefront, and dozens of other Chicagoland venues — full-day weddings, intimate ceremonies, engagement sessions, and full-length wedding films.

If something here feels like the way you'd want your day remembered, we'd love to hear from you. Send a note and we'll reply with our guide, current availability, and a custom proposal within 24 hours.

Stories told quietly, frame by frame.

Our lenses don't merely capture smiles — they seek the quiet tears, the shared laughter, the stolen kisses. Every frame here is a real wedding, a real engagement, a real film. Click any image to see it fullscreen.

A note from us
“A portfolio is just the highlights. The real magic is in the in-between — the moments you didn't see at the time, the laughs you forgot you laughed. We hope you find a frame here that feels familiar.”
