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.

Saddle and Cycle Wedding Teaser Photos // Caroline + Spencer

Saddle and Cycle Chicago Wedding Photos

The storm clouds cleared for Caroline + Spencer’s wedding earlier today at Saddle and Cycle! They were married just six hours ago on the Northside of Chicago! Here are just a few teaser photos for their friends and family to enjoy until more photos are released in a couple weeks!

Wedding Details:
Getting Ready: Ambassador Chicago
Ceremony + Reception Venue: Saddle and Cycle
Florals + Decor: Exquisite Designs
Planner + Coordinator: JD from A Perfect Pair Chicago
Photographers: Nakai Photography
Gown: Reem Acra, New York

For those that don’t know, Saddle and Cycle is unique as one of the few outdoor green spaces for a wedding! As a photographer, I love the contrasting textures as well as a few Chicago buildings in the background to give you a sense of location!
