SHUANG + CHAI | CHICAGO ELOPEMENT

Things happened quickly.  I got an inquiry, and days later I was in Chicago, shaking the hands of these two lovebirds.  You can never tell from meeting people how things are gonna go.  Will they be comfortable?  Will we have enough light?  A million questions can fill you up.

Then I put my camera up to my face and the magic just spilled out before me.  These two are ethereal.  They are breathtaking.  I swear, they didn't notice I was even there.  They were swept up into each other and never looked back.

Exploring Chicago is always a dream, but the light that day was pretty much the holy kind...and when it fell over these two, it kinda sealed the deal.

Thank you Shuang and Chai, for believing in me and entrusting to me your love story.  You guys are seriously amazing...your kind words and beautiful hearts are beyond appreciated.  And readers, please enjoy the random photo bomb of hairy people.
