This wedding (almost elopement) goes down as the smallest ceremony I’ve been a part of in 9 years and I absolutely loved that! Ben and Katharyn were married by a dear family friend in front of a beautiful old barn at Sommer Park in Peoria, and attended by their parents.  The location couldn’t have been lovelier and August once again proved kind in providing us a lovely balmy evening. It was so sweet and special to witness such an intimate event – it was absolutely perfect and suited Ben and Katharyn to a T. Two days later the couple held a laid-back reception full of yard games and beautiful views of Lake Bloomington.

I love photographing small events like this (destination weddings or an elopement) so if this sounds like the wedding you’re planning, get in touch – I’d love to be a part of it!
