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.

Margaret + Tobi’s Engagement Photos!

Chicago Engagement Photography – St Ignatius – Riverwalk

Margaret + Tobi met at St Ignatius, a gorgeous school in Chicago! It was only fitting that they returned for a few engagement photos!

If you are like me, you’ve never stepped foot on the St Ignatius campus and have no idea how beautiful it is! One of my favorite job perks as a Chicago engagement photographer: seeing different parts of the city!

I’m a photographer that loves sun flare- and we were able to incorporate it into this photo!

The River walk is relatively new to Chicago – and I love how romantic it can be!
