After an exciting Friday evening photographing Janice and Niraj’s Sangeet celebration I could not wait to see what the actual wedding would bring. I would not be disappointed! They choose to have both their wedding ceremony and their reception at the Westin Hotel in Itsaca, IL. So this is where we started on Saturday morning…

Wow Mark…Just beautiful!!! I bet you guys had a blast…I would love to do a wedding in Mexico…but I guess you don’t need a whole lot of decorating when you’re surrounded by beauty like this.

Great Pictures, but then they had to be given the subject matter!
It’s always a delight to photograph in Chicago, so many different and new things to explore. So when Katie and Jared said they wanted to have their engagement session with a Chicago background I was all over that. We started in Lincoln Park and finished at North Ave Beach. Gorgeous fall day, nice relaxing session,…
November 8, 2010 - 1:06 pm
Love the pictures. Their personalities, the fun they have together, and the love they have for each other are all captured. As MOB, I’m so confident that the wedding pictures will be wonderful and so happy that we chose Mark.

November 15, 2010 - 3:34 pm
Jared, these pics are extremely GAY! & by gay I mean Happy Also, I say choose the 5th one from the bottom…only bc it’s far away enough that I don’t have to see your ugly mugg lol. On a closing note Jared, I’d have to say your modeling/posing ability is JCPenny-esque at best! Katie you are beautiful as usual! hahaah CONGRATS!!
November 15, 2010 - 8:19 pm
Well where do I begin. The pics are fantastic maybe because there are in Chicago or mayyyyybe because these two are having a great time. Well at least one of them were. You two need to pucker up a little better come on your in love….show it! Congrats to you and love you both.
November 15, 2010 - 10:00 pm

Great pics! You guys look great! Looking forward to seeing you at the wedding.
November 16, 2010 - 11:41 am
Love the pics– especially the one in the field, which makes one forget for a moment that you’re actually in Lincoln Park and not in a prairie, like the photo suggests
November 16, 2010 - 4:16 pm
Love the pics and you guys are super cute!!! I would like one for the Sheridan Residence. I also can’t wait to celebrate!
November 16, 2010 - 4:26 pm

November 17, 2010 - 8:53 am

November 20, 2010 - 8:27 am
