Hi! I'm Lisa. I'm a Chicago-based wedding photographer known for my classic and timeless style. I love blogging about my photography and my love of fashion!
Kristen and Tim’s big day for their Chicago wedding began at their condo in Lakeview. To start the day, Kristen and her bridesmaids were gushing over how excited they were while getting their hair and makeup down. Everyone was so happy to be celebrating this couple on their wedding day! Kirsten and Tim’s Lacuna Loft wedding day was so perfect for them and I am so excited for you to see their photos.
I always love getting to hear the stories of how my Chicago wedding photography clients meet, and Kristen and Tim’s story is definitely one of my favorites. Kristen and Tim happened to be at the very same Lincoln Park bar one evening. He saw her from a distance and then couldn’t find her. Finally, he found her and was able to talk to her when they then exchanged numbers at the end of the night. However, when Tim texted Kristen, she didn’t say yes right away to go out with him. Thankfully she eventually did because they are so happy together today!
Their ceremony was at the beautiful St Benedict church. We planned their first look just outside the church. Tim was so full of excitement to see Kristen! When they finally saw each other for the first time, they both just beamed with happiness. It was so heartening to see! After the church ceremony, we went to Welles Park. Kristen and Tim’s wedding day happened on one of the hottest days on record in Chicago, and all day long, we knew there was a big storm on the way. We thankfully had enough time to take some incredible photos under the park’s beautiful European looking gazebo.
The reception at Lacuna Lofts was stunning with twinkling lights, beautiful floral decor on each table, and a handmade signature menu. The couple danced the night away to their live band and had so much fun! There was a sparkler “exit” on the rooftop that overlooked Downtown Chicago. It was the perfect touch to end their Chicago wedding day!
Kristen and Tim, it was so wonderful getting to know you both over your engagement! I adore your kindness, love of dogs, and humor. You both were seriously the best to work with, and your Lacuna Loft wedding was gorgeous! I wish you both all the best!
