ARTURO & DEEBRITT – CHICAGO, ILLINOIS

There are moments in life where I feel so happy to be a part of something so special, so big,
so amazing, so indefinable and yet so completely full of love.
That is the only way I know how to describe my experience of being a part of Arturo and DeeBritt's wedding in Chicago, Illinois.

When we first met Arturo and DeeBritt we knew they were one of those amazing couples who have that
"special something" and we were completley excited to have the opportunity to capture their connection together
with our cameras during their engagement session in our Bucktown neighborhood of Chicago, IL.
We were head over heels for how Arturo and DeeBritt's love "sparked on film".

Cut to October in the Windy City...
Holy Family Parish is one of the best examples of Victorian Gothic architecture in the country and was in
exceptional condition for a wedding. I can't describe the grand beauty of this church, except that I felt as if
I stepped straight into Rome. We hope that we captured just a piece of the beauty in our images.
Ditto for the detail Arturo and Deebritt put into their reception.
We hope that the images we captured share the bright joy and flavor of their celebration of love!
