The Bridge, Lemont Wedding | Colin and Colleen | Chicagoland Wedding Photographer

Colleen and Colin are some of the sweetest people I've met. and they beautifully complement each other. Colleen is vibrant, considerate, and energetic, and Colin is attentive, calm, and thoughtful. Together, they hosted a wedding that celebrated them and all the people (and animals!) they love!

We started their day getting ready at their venue, The Bridge, Lemont. The floor-to-ceiling windows let in the frosty light from the November sky, and the warmth of the fireplace kept everyone cozy. I put together a flatlay of all of Colleen's carefully chosen details, including a custom lipstick, socks, stickers of their pets, and more. Once we were all ready, Colleen did a first look with her bridesmaids, her dad, and then Colin!

We grabbed family photos both before and after the ceremony, making sure that we didn't have a long, extensive time spent posing in front of the camera for formal portraits. And right before they said 'I do,' Colleen and Colin slipped away outside for a few pictures sheltered from the rain. The ceremony was personal and sweet, and the reception that followed was a vibrant party with great food and great music!

I loved seeing how well this couple was celebrated--they love their people hard, and it was clear that they are loved in return.
