Hi, I'm Kenny Nakai.

 

As a Chicago wedding photographer, I’m lucky enough to document some of the city's most beautiful love stories.

 

I hope you find inspiration here and connect with the feelings I had when I created each photo.

Hi, I'm Kenny Nakai.

 

As a Chicago wedding photographer, I’m lucky enough to document some of the city's most beautiful love stories.

 

Welcome to my Chicago wedding blog, where I share my latest work and the deeper stories behind the photos. I hope you find inspiration here and connect with the feelings I had when I created each one.

Urban Art + Balloons = Amazing Engagement Pics! Esther + Angus!

Chicago’s Urban Art + Balloons = Amazing Engagement Pics

Chicago is home to a broad variety of urban art! Esther + Angus wanted to incorporate a couple murals into their engagement pics! They also brought large balloons with their initials on them!

Took a few photos at Lincoln Park’s ‘honeycomb’ installation!

I had found this awesome urban art of “Chicago” while driving around and was thankful it was still in pristine condition when I recommended this location to Esther + Angus!

I always love a photo underneath the CTA ‘El” tracks!

Love the ‘pop’ of gold in their balloons contrasting with the black and purple background!
