What do you get when two people fall in love through the circus? One heck of a party!
Karissa & Brian met through their university’s circus while attending Illinois State University & their wedding was a perfect tribute to every “act” of their love story. From their first look at ISU’s “Love Bench” to their grand entrance beneath jugglers, each moment of this wedding day was planned with intention & meant something to the new Mr. & Mrs. Shade. They even handed out sunglasses as party favors to all their guests! While I will always remember this day as one of the hottest weddings I’ve ever photographed (hello, midwest humidity!), I hope these two will never forget this day as their very own greatest show on earth!
