Jessica + Jake Carney / August 02 2019

We met Jess and Jake at their engagement session. They drove all the way up to Milwaukee from Chicago in the morning. I think Jess had her makeup done at about 6am. Great couple that was open to our creativeness with photos.

Their wedding was held at the Ivy House; which they had booked before the venue was even completely finished.

Jess had fun with Jake’s first look. Instead of her being there, Jake was surprised by one of their friends dressed up in fake wedding dress.

After the very warm ceremony, we had the chance to go inside and use the venues’ cool spots to get out of the heat and use their unique interior.

Our video team was there as well, so we worked side by side sharing shots and ideas.

We ended the night with the dancing outside of the venue, which felt like the perfect way to end a summer wedding.
