I’ve had the hardest time editing this blog post down to a manageable number of photos. Maybe it’s because I’ve known Chris and Amanda for almost 10 years, maybe it’s because there was a ton of emotion and laughter on their wedding day, or maybe, just maybe, it’s because their wedding rocked it!
My first inclination that this was going to be an emotional day was when I was taking pictures of Amanda getting her make-up done, and I stopped to look at her and said, “Wow.” And she started crying. Her trick to keep from crying throughout the day? To stare up at her eyebrows. It seemed to work!
Chris and Amanda got married at the Most Holy Redeemer in Evergreen Park, IL and then took a trolley over to their reception which was at The Odyssey Country Club in Tinley Park, IL. Their reception was a full-blown dance party that ended with mini-burgers and a Ryan Adams singalong. (my favorite way to end a night :) )
A big thanks to Chicago photographer, Eddie Quinones with Luzco Photography for your help! Congrats to Chris and Amanda – I can’t wait to see what the future has in store for you two! Thank you for trusting me with shooting your wedding – it was a blast.
