A Disney girl at heart, Carrie always envisioned her wedding day as a fairytale. And let me tell you – it was nothing short of that. From her wonderfully fluffy princess bridal gown, to “Be Our Guest” being played as dinner was served at the reception, to her beautiful big eyes that resemble all the Disney princesses’ (something I didn’t notice until the Disney theme emerged on the day of), Carrie + Ryan’s day was truly a Fairytale.

From the first time I met Carrie + Ryan during their Engagement Session last winter – it has felt like we were old friends just hanging out while I snap a few photos. We’ve ice-skated together, stood on top of medians on Michigan Ave., and even dodged traffic in the middle of the street while trying to get the shot. It truly has been nothing but a pleasure working with you guys, and I couldn’t be happier with how your wedding photos turned out. You guys are beautiful both inside and out, and I’m so blessed to have clients like you in my life. Congratulations on a beautiful life together – and I hope our paths cross in the future!
