Studio Ostendo operates in multiple creative fields including photography, design, and education.
We met Anna and Joe at the Art Institute for their engagement photos almost exactly one year out from their wedding day! Currently living in Pittsburgh, Anna and Joe are planning an intimate Chicago wedding at the Emil Bach House next fall. Even though they already had some engagement photos done, they joined us to hit a few iconic Chicago spots while they were in town! We loved spending the afternoon catching up on wedding plans and getting to know Anna and Joe!
Joe proposed to Anna in Japan, getting down on one knee in front of an epic view of Mount Fuji that may or may not have been obstructed by clouds. Either way, Anna said yes and we can't wait to see them say "I do" in front of their close family and friends next fall!
As we've gotten to know more about Anna and Joe, we love their focus on the things that really matter. From planning a smaller wedding to looking forward to images of real moments on their wedding day, Anna and Joe are prioritizing being present and enjoying the process. Anna and Joe, we are so thankful you chose to spend a couple hours of your quick trip with us! We're so excited to celebrate with you next year! Hugs, Becky & Kaleb.
Wedding photography is my heartbeat. For me, it holds the perfect tension between creativity and authenticity, observation and connection. In front of my camera clients transform to friends, and behind it you'll usually find me tearing up, cheering you on, or holding my breath because of the raw goodness of the moment at hand.
