Joie and Vince wedding was blessed with a warm sunny day. They celebrated their day surrounded by their big Italian family in the beautiful downtown Chicago. The moment John and I walked in into Joie’s home, where she was getting ready we saw her cousins, aunts, uncles, nieces, and nephews all helping with something. We could feel the love of everyone and the joy they had to be able to witness their loves ones getting married. Every wedding we photograph I always make sure to take a moment and admire the little details of what makes their family so unique and strong.

I always learn something and take notes and try to apply that to my own family. I noticed how her parents were holding their hands while looking at her with her wedding dress, I saw her dad’s eyes getting watery. Those are the moments that fill my heart, the reason why I choose this career. Yanni Design was in charge of their flowers and design so we knew the day would be magical and with so many elegant sparkles to adorn our pictures. We know that their love will be an example to many of your family members, may you always find comfort in each other.
