I was pleased to see three of my photographs receive awards in the latest Fearless Photographers competition, which awarded 263 photographs out of a selection of over 5,000 entries. Fearless Photographers are not only the best in the world, but, more importantly, they are truly a lovely group of people that constantly inspire me. I’m quite honored to be associated with warm, talented photographers that I can also call my friends. Check out all of the winning entries here!
I was incredibly honored when one of my former photojournalism students at Northwestern University asked me to document her civil ceremony in Chicago’s City Hall. I met them downtown on St. Patrick’s Day. While the rest of the city ran, paraded and drank, Cat and Jesse got hitched.
I was the lucky one to witness it, and I’m very happy to share their images here.
There was a bit of a wait as everyone decided to get married on St. Patrick’s Day.
Married! We went back to their home for some cake…
Then, we hit the lakefront.
We had to endure committed runners.
And bicyclists!
Congratulations, you two~! Wishing you nothing but continued happiness!

These are fantastic, Candice. Love the shots of the line outside City Hall, and the silhouette in the tunnel is great, too!
Eileen and Chris got married in Miami’s Grove Isle Hotel and laughed all evening. Truly, they love to laugh together. Laughing is one of my favorite things, so I couldn’t help but join them! Their evening ended with a rowdy karaoke song fest that I also couldn’t help but join! 
Thank you, Eileen and Chris, for bringing me to Miami to document your beautiful day!

LOVE these. Those second and third gave me goosebumps … and the second to last is fabulous. You rocked it, as always
This is such a great set. Great job!
You have one great way of seeing. I am glad our paths crossed. Gene
I loved Kristen and Dave’s wedding at the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art because of a few things. Great weather, beautiful surroundings, and a bride who snorts when she laughs.
I am very fortunate to photograph happy people on the happiest day of their lives. For Kristen and Dave, I’m willing to bet they are like this all the time together, and that makes me happy.
