The Old Post Office Chicago Wedding

I still can’t even believe what a perfect day we had for these two at their The Old Post Office Chicago wedding! I have known Allie for quite a while now, and I even shot her senior portraits 10 years ago! When I was building my photo business I worked at a law firm as a paralegal and Allie’s dad was one of the partners there! Her family and so many of my former coworkers have become dear friends/basically like family to me – over the past 17 years we’ve known each other! It’s crazy to realize it’s been that long!

What an absolute joy it was to capture this day for them! Allie and Derek are the sweetest and kindest people! This sneak peek into their day was impossible to narrow down, so we hope you enjoy! XOXO ~ Christy & James
