Matt + Catherine :: Chicago Wedding Photographer at Prairie Productions
- Posted on:
- 24 August 2009
Matt and Catherine are an incredibly fun couple that I knew of for quite some time, but didn’t have the pleasure of meeting until a few months before their wedding. Matt is also a photographer that I have been aware of, and we both sold our fine art photographs at the design store zella brown in Wicker Park. Shooting a photographer’s wedding is both incredibly wonderful (know they make photos a priority) and also very nerve-wracking! I thankfully ended up having much more of the “wonderful” experience, with a beautiful wedding downtown at the Chicago Temple and a reception at the lovely Prairie Productions, with three hours (!) of photos around the city with their truly awesome wedding party. Thank you again for letting me photograph your lovely day!












Their wedding was the weekend of the air and water show, and I unfortunately had bad luck capturing any planes (too busy cowering in fear), but what a lovely day for it!










Beautiful necklaces from Erin Gallagher, who is also having a big sale this weekend.



Love this space! This is a great example of how a room with beautiful natural light can be decorated simply for a really wonderful impact.

Hi Olivia. I love these images. I especially love the loading dock photograph. That is a rockin’ image! Where was that taken? It is so cool to see a fellow Chicagoan rocking the wedding world!!! I look forward to seeing more of your work.
Lovely images! These entire photos look beautiful as usual as casual. Bright background colors make them pop out even more.
Olivia - your detail shots of the reception room are spot on - color is nice without being over worked.
Sweet.

Olivia—
Just wanted to say that these are the most beautiful wedding photos I’ve ever seen. Matt is a friend of my husband and I. You do absolutely beautiful work.
Really gorgeous and interesting shots.
Small world, Matt and Catherine are friends of mine, and interestingly you are my very first Flickr contact (37 months ago, I checked it out). I’ve been following your work on Flickr for a while and I think it’s pretty cool that a virtual contact has somehow become one degree closer in the real world. Weird, wild stuff.
Where was this reception? It is absolutely stunning!
Hi Melissa,
This was at Prairie Productions in the West Loop. Lovely venue!
“Hi. I just noticed that your site appears like it has several code difficulties in the very top of your website’s web page. Is it an older model of Weblog Engine? I am not certain if everyone is acquiring this similar bugginess when searching your web site? I am employing a completely distinct browser than most people, referred to as lynx, so that is what might be producing it? I just wished to create positive you recognized. Thanks for posting some fantastic postings and I’ll look at to return back again having a entirely various browser to examine things out!”
