Haden is still so young and it really is nice to drive 10 minutes home at the end of each wedding. However, when Jessica contacted me about their wedding in Chicago, I could not say no. They were more than accommodating to the fact that I had a baby, allowing Ryan and Haden to tag along and hang out in Chicago for the weekend. Oh, and also? They reserved a hotel room for a second shooter too. I decided to ask my old second shooter, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dawnsilvaphotography.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Dawn Silva<\/a>, if she would fly in for it. She did! Together again, ha. \ud83d\ude42 What an amazing wedding and super fun weekend.
