Having beautiful photos and being familiar with a venue is all fine and wonderful, but having things in common and a good vibe with clients is ideal. On our first call, we discussed tacos, music, theater, and of course, their Firehouse Chicago wedding.
It was a beautiful October day, and it all began at Cubs stadium with some fun poses under the custom sign (who doesn't love that) followed by portraits with their sweet puppy and close friends and private vows at their wedding venue, Firehouse Chicago!
