Rooftop on the Ritz Carlton

Love this shot. This can only be captured on the rooftop of the Ritz Carlton. The building behind them is iconic in it’s architecture. The two of them laughing together perfectly captures their relationship!

The ballroom looked amazing for their reception!

This little puppy didn’t want to miss out on the tuxedo action, though he may have missed out on a kiss! The Ritz Carlton is a pet friendly hotel!

One last photo to share…a pictures from their first dance! The monogrammed floor was a surprise to the bride and groom from the bride’s mother!

Congrats again Blake and Lauren! There are so many wonderful photos from your day, it was hard to pick just four to share tonight! Enjoy the rest of your time with friends and family! I hope to post more in the next 2 or 3 weeks!

with love,

your Chicago wedding photographer,
