In the heart of Chatham, where love first bloomed amidst high school halls, Kass and Cam discovered a shared passion for the vibrant city of Chicago. Their story is a testament to love’s journey, weaving through familiar hometowns and distant urban landscapes.

After years of cherishing the city of Chicago, Kass and Cam decided that their wedding journey would begin in the city they adore. In 2022, under the Chicago skyline and its bustling streets, Cam proposed to Kass, marking a pivotal moment in their love story.

Amidst the whirlwind of wedding planning, Kass and Cam made a bold decision—they would elope in Chicago, where their love story had blossomed. This decision was not just about the allure of the city but a reflection of their journey together.

While I wasn’t there to capture their intimate elopement, I had the privilege of photographing their joyous celebration at Retro Suites this past June. The Retro Suites wedding reception was a heartfelt affair, filled with touching moments like Kass sharing a first look with her dad and the couple celebrating their union surrounded by their loved ones.

Retro Suites, a charming venue in Chatham, provided the perfect backdrop for Kass and Cam’s reception, blending nostalgia with contemporary elegance. It was a celebration of their love story, where every detail spoke volumes about their journey—from high school sweethearts to partners for life.

Here’s to many more chapters of their beautiful journey together.
