Liz + Sean’s Country Rustic Wedding

What I love most about Liz and Sean is the way they look at each other.  These shared gazes back and forth, full of affection, come easily between the two.

Their relationship started virtually, over messenger at their workplace. It wasn’t long before their friendly chats carried the promise of something more. Soon they were out on dates in New York City, sharing stories of their shared alma mater, Villanova, and drinking margaritas.

When it came time to plan their big day, despite loving where they live, they envisioned a country rustic wedding in Liz’s hometown of Barrington Hills.  Everything came together better than imagined.  It was an absolutely perfect day for pictures and we were given access to the most charming farm, complete with horses and ducks grazing in the background. Could we have been any luckier?

I’ve loved getting to know Liz and Sean over the last year during phone chats and their amazing NYC engagement session last fall. They’re such a great couple, who make you feel like an old friend instantly.  I couldn’t be happier for them!  Congrats Liz and Sean.  I wish you all the best.

Big thanks to Tom Root, my second shooter on this wedding! And thanks to these vendors for their lovely work:
