Francesca & Cody’s wedding was definitely one of the most unique ones that I’ve ever photographed, and will forever go down as a favorite! When COVID forced them to change their wedding plans and move their Oregon destination wedding to Chicago, they decided to make lemonade out of lemons and got married on a private yacht with just their immediate families present! This day was so intimate, fun, and family-focused! The joy that these two and their families had was contagious, and they had an entire audience cheering them on from the shores of Lake Michigan as they said “I do!” 2020 has made me fall in love with these intimate weddings and all of the unique ways that couples are finding to celebrate and this day will always be a favorite! Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Cox!
