What a beautiful venue for wedding photography at McEachran Homestead Winery in Caledonia, IL. Whether it rained or not, and it did, the day could not have been more lovely than it was. After shifting to plan B and pulling the chairs into the barn we just missed the rain, but we certainly didn't miss this beautiful bride. The wedding was a beautiful ceremony with the couple timing their departure with precision between the first and second wave of rain. We moved the party over to Franchesco's Ristorante in Rockford, IL and continued the party all night long. Jake, the groom had asked me if we could pull of a quick picture of him and two of his groomsman holding a cigar and a drink. I told him nope, but give me 10 minutes. The incredibly helpful folks at Franchesco's allowed me to put the bride behind the bar and the gentlemen sitting at the bar admiring her beauty...
Client Review of State Line Photography via WeddingWire.com "My experience with State Line Photography was amazing. Jack has great attention to detail. He worked so well with all of our other vendors that day as well. He arrived earlier than expected on the wedding day (10/6/17) and stayed later than we planned on. It calmed me to not have to rush our reception because knowing that he was there was great. He was quick to help with whatever was needed. The weather did not cooperate with us that day but Jack did not let the rain ruin our wedding photography. We had to change our ceremony from an outdoor vineyard to inside a barn one hour before the ceremony start time and he had no problem working with us to get everything set up. All of our photos are beyond amazing. The same day slideshow at our reception impressed us and our guests. Getting to see sneak peaks on Facebook the next morning was awesome as well. We felt very comfortable with him because he made us laugh and he was very professional. We definitely recommend State Line Photography!"
One of my trademark images of my couples is my night shot. I try to kidnap each of my couples, not really kidnapping if you give them a warning is it?. Franchesco's Ristorante in Rockford, IL is an amazing venue for not only wedding receptions, dinner but also night imagery. I love the architecture of the building and the leading lines. They draw you right into this beautiful bride...
