LaSalle St Wedding Photos

On our way to the ceremony, we stopped on LaSalle St for a few quick photos-

Brides don’t always wear their veils during their portrait time, and we don’t always put a couple under the veil as it can get warm…but on this Sept afternoon, it was the perfect time for this photo-

Love her veil blowing in the wind and the simplicity and timelessness of this photo in black and white
