Abbey + Kevin ~ Galleria Marchetti Wedding ~ Chicago Wedding Photography

There is nothing like photographing a couple who is truly open, vulnerable (with each other & with us!), and completely in love. When our clients become friends and when they allow us to really SEE them – we can tell their story in the best way possible… a way that is 100% authentic and 100% them. Abbey and Kevin gave us that openness & vulnerability right from the very start and I think when you look through these images that will be very apparent. This day was an absolute JOY to be a part of and aside from everything I mentioned above – these two are truly the most humble, kind, funny, and down-to-earth couple! We had the most amazing time with them, their families and all their friends. All of them felt like lifelong friends by the end of the day and we didn’t want to leave when the day came to a close!

Abbey & Kevin ~ Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the gift of completely being yourselves and showing that to us. Thank you for your love, understanding, and kindness throughout these crazy couple of years. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. We hope these images bring you as much joy looking through as they did for us capturing them! We love you two! Now let’s please grab a few beers together, yes?! 😉 XOXO ~ Christy & James

The best best best, SWEETEST day for the loveliest couple!!
