Bridgeport Arts Center Wedding - Stephanie & Michael

Chicago Wedding Photos

My final wedding of 2015 could not have gone better.  Between their style and relaxed demeanor, Stephanie & Michael's approach to their wedding day really made it fun to photograph.  Our outdoor photo plans did get canceled due to the first snow storm of the season.  However, all that meant is we got to shoot inside the Art Institute instead!  I was also incredibly excited about photographing at the Bridgeport Arts Center for the first time.  Chicago Vintage Weddings and Art of Imagination truly went above and beyond in creating such a beautiful space.  I cannot thank Stephanie & Michael enough for helping me close 2015 on such a high note!
