Queer Aquarium Wedding | Chicago, IL

Got to spend the day with Bryan & Jake at one of my favorite places in Chicago for their wedding.

This wedding was 16 years in the making, and I'm honored to have celebrated and documented the day with them. I could go on for days about how incredible these two are as individuals, how perfect they are together, and how absolutely magical their wedding day was, but let's be honest, you guys just want to see the photos anyway.

Also, consider this my formal request for all weddings to have ice cream cake and penguins at them, because this is all I'll be talking about for years.
