When the wonderful wedding planner Joy Jones reached out to me about a styled shoot she was planning at the an incredible venue, the Old Post Office Chicago, I was in immediately! I had always wanted to shoot in a building with this kind of style, and the shoot in general sounded right up my alley. I showed up on a lovely August morning and spent the day shooting, helping style a few things, chatting with amazing vendors, and just having a great time.
My favorite part of the day came out of a weird mistake that happened! We were supposed to have a cool old car to shoot with outside, but for some reason the driver decided he could only wait for us for 5 minutes, and then left. We had been running a little behind schedule (as weddings and shoots usually do haha) and he just decided to drive up from Indiana only to wait a few minutes and then go home 🤷♀️ So, I got the idea that we should shoot with a cab instead! Joy ran up and down the street to find someone willing to do it, had them drive over, and we shot with that instead! I actually am so glad this all happened, because those became my favorite shots of the day- such a fun city vibe! Overall it was a perfect day of being creative. So check out all this inspiration from a talented team at the Old Post Office Chicago 🙂
