Kelly & Matt’s Logan Auditorium Wedding and Rock Show

When Kelly and Matt first told me about their wedding plans, I was instantly excited for them. First, they wished to tie the knot in a private ceremony at Logan Theatre. As a fellow movie nerd, I knew this would be awesome! Later that evening, the celebration continued with a live music show by their favorite band. Friends and family traveled from near and far for their Logan Auditorium wedding reception… lead singer Todd Hembrook even flew in for the occasion!

After their intimate ceremony in the Lounge, we were lucky enough to take some newlywed portraits in the theatre. (Thanks for helping make this possible, Jen!) Before heading to the reception, we stopped at pizza place Boiler Room for a few photos. This is where Kelly and Matt’s love story began, and Kelly wanted to make an appearance in her wedding dress! Shout out to the awesome staff for accommodating us!

Matt and Kelly’s Logan Auditorium wedding reception was an absolute blast. The Hemispheres kept the crowd singing and dancing into the night! In other words, the party was EPIC and these two were all smiles 🙂

Kelly and Matt: Thank you again for letting me be a part of your wedding day! Wishing you nothing but happiness in your future together.

About

Chicago wedding photographer Emma Mullins of Emma Mullins Photography

Hellooo, world!

I’m Emma (She/Her): Beer nerd, cat-whisperer, Schitt’s Creek-obsessed Chicago wedding photographer. I’ve been helping couples relive their wedding memories since 2014, and wouldn’t have it any other way!

Originally from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, I currently reside in Chicago with my designer-turned-handyman partner and our two spunky felines. When I’m not photographing couples in love, I’m either hanging with these three, managing our West Town studio space, or traveling someplace new!

A Few of My Favorite Things:
  • Black coffee
  • Buttercream frosting
  • Road trips
  • Watching the sun rise
  • Pretending I sound like Mariah Carey
  • Belgian beer
  • The Green Bay Packers
  • My little fam (Jeremy, Miike and Vince)
  • Halloween (the holiday – not the movie. Okay, the movie’s pretty good too.)
About You

You want stunning, true-to-life wedding photos that look and feel like YOU. You don’t want to feel stiff or look too “posed.” And most importantly, you want to ENJOY your wedding day while we capture all the good stuff! 

Whether you thrive in the spotlight or cringe at the thought of being photographed, we are there to capture your memories. And let’s be honest: your wedding day is going to be AWESOME. No matter what goes according to plan or how many things surprise you, at the end of the day you’ll be married to Your Person. And, spoiler alert: that’s what this is all about!

My Approach

My relaxed, documentary approach allows couples to feel totally comfortable in front of the camera (it’s the number one thing mentioned in my Reviews!). Expect a mix of candid moments and contemporary portraiture, with the occasional embarrassing (aka HILARIOUS) dance floor photo. I will be your hype girl during portrait time (seriously!). We’ll get to know each other throughout the process, and it doesn’t stop on wedding day. I want to show up with hugs and handshakes – not as just another vendor.
