Katie + Andrew ~ Carnivale Wedding Photography Chicago

We first met Katie and Andrew at their good friends, Ali & Codie’s wedding last July – and the thing I remember most about Katie was her smile!! She has the most genuine, infectious smile and I absolutely loved it when I first met her!! So when she inquired with us a few months after Ali and Codie’s wedding I remember thinking, “That was the bridesmaid who smiled so much!!” I was so excited to hear from her and just remember how kind and down to earth she and Andrew were when we chatted with them at dinner (Ali & Codie sat us with their bridal party, which was so awesome!) – so needless to say – I was pretty stoked about getting to work with them too!!!

Katie and Andrew really had the most beautiful September day for their wedding – I still can’t believe some of the weather we’ve had this year! LOVELY. (Hopefully I didn’t just jinx it!) We met them out at their parents’ homes for preparation photos and after a beautiful ceremony at Mary Seat of Wisdom Church, just down the street from Katie’s childhood home, we headed into the city for portraits along the river walk and then celebrated into the night at Carnivale!! (Can we talk about the food there for a second?! Oh my gosh. What an experience!!)

Katie & Andrew ~ Thank you so so very much for having us along for this beautiful journey with you two! You are honestly some of the kindest, most down to earth people we’ve ever worked with and we love you for putting your trust in us to capture your day (and because you’re awesome people, obviously)! We hope you love these photos and that they bring you back to that truly perfect day over and over again as you look back on them together through the years. We know you guys will have such a joy-filled and loving life ahead of you and are so thankful you came into our lives!! XOXO ~ Christy & James
