Tiffany and Koai

Tiffany Walker and Koai Matthews wed on Saturday, June 20th 2009 at the Salem Lutheran Church on the South Side of Chicago. The church was beautiful and old, which fit their vintage theme well. It was a gorgeous day for a wedding and Tiffany looked stunning in her dress. My wife Rachel came along with me to assist. We worked very well together and everything went smoothly. We had the opportunity to be with Tiffany and her bridesmaids during the "getting ready process" and then we headed over to the church to spend some time with the guys. They were a fun bunch! After the ceremony Tiffany and her new husband Koai headed right outside to take some photos together. Soon after that we took formal family photos in the church then headed outside with the wedding party to take some group shots. The reception was held at 94 West, a very nice restaurant in Orland Park, IL. Everyone had a great time celebrating with the newlyweds. Please enjoy a few samples from the event below. Thank you Tiffany and Koai for giving me the honor of photographing your wedding festivities!
