We had the honor and joy of photographing Roel and Marcus’s wedding at Gallery 1028 in Chicago last weekend. This industrial-chic venue, featuring exposed brick walls and high ceilings, provided the perfect backdrop for their celebration. With its versatile layout, Gallery 1028 allowed for a seamless transition between the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception.
A Day Filled with Unexpected Moments
Roel and Marcus’s wedding day was nothing short of unforgettable. From rain showers and city protests to an hour-long power outage at the reception, the day was filled with surprises. Yet, nothing could dim the love and joy that surrounded them.
An Epic First Dance to Remember
One of the most memorable moments was their first dance—the most incredible one I have ever witnessed. It was a true showstopper, filled with emotion, elegance, and personality.
Love & Support from Family and Friends
Despite the challenges, the overwhelming love and support from family and friends made this wedding truly special. The energy, laughter, and heartfelt moments throughout the night reflected the deep connections and joy shared by everyone present.
