Mark Trela Photography Every wedding tells a story. It's a story of love, passion and commitment. As it is with life, all the best stories evolve organically.

www.marktrela.com - Mark Trela Photography is a husband and wife Chicago wedding photography team, specializing in photojournalistic and documentary style wedding photography. As much as weddings are well rehearsed and neatly prepared they all share moments of spontaneity and surprise. These moments of pure unfiltered emotions coupled with unconstrained jubilation are what make each and every wedding a unique and wonderful event. These are the raw elements that drive us as photographers and make us so passionate and excited about wedding photography. It’s that rare contradiction between organized and impulsive that manifests itself throughout the wedding day. It’s the grand showcase of love and all the small instants of life that create the whole story.

I’ve been shooting a lot at Montrose Harbor recently. I absolutely love how this place always evolves and brings unique energy with every couple I photograph there.
