It’s been a minute since I have photographed an elopement, and it’s been even longer since I have photographed the Loop on a Saturday morning. IYKYK, but there’s something about an empty Loop and morning light that makes my heart sing. The cold weather, especially after ten days in the Philippines, humbled me a bit, but then Susan took off her jacket to show off her cute satin slip dress and I was suddenly grateful for my layers. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to join them inside of City Hall for photos (I showed up and there were over a dozen couples outside of the doors waiting to get in, so City Hall wouldn’t allow guests – the website said otherwise so I would call ahead to confirm before you go), so I snapped a photo of Susan and Eddy with Eddy’s parents after it was official, then walked around the financial district with the newlyweds to take some portraits. Absolutely love how these turned out! Scroll to see some of my favorite photos from the morning:
