The Drake Chicago Wedding

I love my couples and this city so much. Chicago never ceases to amaze me!

This Drake Chicago Wedding was beyond amazing and I’m so happy to share it with everyone. Every wonderfully unique detail was thoughtfully chosen and special note of the gorgeous florals accenting the beautiful backdrop at The Drake Hotel. I’m honored to be a part of every wedding and I truly cherish every moment with my couples. Christen and Sam are not just my couples, but they also have become friends and I love that part about this little business of mine.

Christen and Sam: Thank you so much for trusting me and allowing me to be a part of your special day. I couldn’t have picked a more perfect day for the both of you! Love you both!

Who’s excited for 45° weather and the weekend?! Who’s excited for 45° weather and the weekend?!? 🙋🏽‍♀️ I’ve realized I show my face here a lot, lol but It’s fun fact Friday( it’s a thing), so here’s a mixture of facts about me. 

1- #mynoinstagramhusband is taking me skydiving for my 40th. Birthday. I asked for this 5 years ago, but he wasn’t ready and now I’m not sure how I feel about jumping at 40. 😬

2- I still don’t have tiktok and refuse to download the app. Either way Instagram shows them all. 😑

3- My maiden last name is Portillo, but that still doesn’t get me a free Italian beef or a hot dog @portilloshotdogs when I tell them. 😝

4- I grew up in El Salvador during a civil war and came to Chicago when I was 9 yrs. old. I could probably write a book about this.  Lol  Do I have any Salvadorians?!? No, just me. Cool 🥴 

5- I’m an introvert even though my friends and couples think other wise. This little business  of mine has made me an extrovert. 🤗 

Happy Friday! Hope everyone has a lovely weekend.
Even though winters are crazy in Chicago, I fall i Even though winters are crazy in Chicago, I fall in love with this city during the other seasons again. I can’t wait to see my amazing couples and for wedding season.
Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend. It’s a be Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend. It’s a beautiful day out, 20° and sunshine feels good. You know you’re from Chicago when you say 20° feels amazing. Happy Saturday everyone!

Waking up super early for a sunrise session is alw Waking up super early for a sunrise session is always worth it.

Fun Fact Friday- I’m a morning person! I never thought I would be, but I love waking up super early, making my coffee, enjoying some time praying or listening to a book. Anyone else prefer to listen to a book than read or just me?!? 🙋🏽‍♀️ Happy Friday! #funfactfriday #fridaylove
