Carole + Jim | Hilton Garden Inn Champaign wedding

HBP_1709.jpg

Carole + Jim planned a beautiful ceremony and reception in Champaign at St. Matthews Church and the Hilton. They chose to do just a few pictures with their wedding party at the church, and then the rest of the portrait time was spent around downtown and West Side Park doing a ton of portraits -- I loved it (except for the lack of parking!)! Carole + Jim did a great job with the portraits too; the day of the wedding was the first time I'd ever met Jim, and he was so easy to work with and took my directions well. I love how I was able to capture so many emotions from them, and catch them in little moments that they probably won't even remember! I had such a fun time with you two, and hope that you'll enjoy these photos! Here's just a taste for you until I have the full gallery ready in a couple weeks. :) Leave a comment below for Carole + Jim, and after 50 comments, they'll receive a complimentary 11x14" mounted print of their choice.
