If I had to pick 2 words to describe Crystal & Spenser’s wedding day I would have to choose, teary eyed and joyful (and yes I realize ‘teary eyed' is technically not one word but humor me people lol).

Let’s all look at these photos and remember that if you can survive all 5 months of winter, Chicago can be such amazing place. 😂

The McMilllian’s are adorable and honestly this session was breeze to photograph. Photographing families with small babies can always be a little nerve wrecking going into them because you never know how the session will go. One missed nap can through everything out of whack. 😂But baby CJ is baby perfection…
