Earlier this month, I arrived at the University of Chicago early on a Saturday morning to photograph a very special wedding.  Gustav & Ann were meeting me there to take some pre ceremony portraits.  They arrived on bikes–yes, bikes.  How awesome is that?!  From there, it only got sweeter.  They picked up Ann’s parents on the way and proceeded to marry one another, in front of a few witnesses, in a civil ceremony in the historical Chicago Cultural Center.  It was simple and yet carried all the beautiful and emotive weight that all weddings do.  I was honored to capture it.  -tony
