CHI thee WED Community Exclusive Styled Shoot!
This styled photoshoot tells a story of love shaped by tradition, patience, and elegance. We envisioned a wedding design where the intricate art of origami would intertwine with natural beauty, creating a setting that feels both peaceful and deeply meaningful.
Chicago couple, Quinn and Riley, had a destination wedding in Arizona (where they met) but they wanted to honor their home city where they got engaged and currently live by having their engagement session there. The aesthetic and fashion was truly inspired by Chicago’s golden age with a heavy nod to men’s tailored looks in the 50s and 60s.
