Mitch & Carrie ::: Fisherman’s Inn ::: Elburn Illinois Wedding Photographer

Mitch and Carrie’s wedding day was a wonderful day full of lots of emotion and rustic charm. They were married at Fisherman’s Inn in Elburn, IL.

Check out some highlights from their wedding day!

Epic groomsmen shot

These kids were adorable. This was right after she tried to kiss himI call being their photographer if there is a future wedding!

I love these two!! They have been in my life since I was a little kid and were two of my 4-H parents. I have now photographed both of their children’s weddings and I love capturing their smiles on the dance floor.

This was the end of the night experiment!! I learned this at a workshop for some fun groomsmen cigar shots.
