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.

Kelly & Melissa’s eSession!

Kelly & Melissa called me to schedule an engagement session as they loved what I did for Inga & Jeff a couple months ago- I had a great time getting to know them through the photoshoot as they shared a little bit of their love story with me. Apparently Kelly & Melissa don’t take very good pictures together and I really wanted to capture the essence of their love through imagery. And while Kelly tends to ‘freeze’ up in front of the lens, I think I did a decent job of grabbing his ‘natural’ smile- =)

















Thanks so much Kelly & Melissa for a great photoshoot! I wish you the best in your future together!

with love,

Kenny Nakai
