Elizabeth and Matt's Engagement Session

Elizabeth and Matt are such a great couple.  It was a joy getting to know them, and Maggie their beautiful Golden Retriever, during their Engagement Session last month!  I loved that they chose to do their session at an alley by Green Street Smoked Meats,  on the Kinzie Street bridge and in the Mary Bartleme Park!  These locations turned out great and we had a fantastic time! I'm so glad we had a chance to do these photos right before I shot their wedding a few weeks ago!

Here are a few of our favorite images from their shoot:

Melissa and Bradley's Engagement Session

If you contact us about doing an Engagement Session and your ideas include your favorite Ice Cream Shoppe, your dog (whose name is THOR), flesh-color Hulk hands, and a heavily graffitied lot...we are going to say yes.  And chances are, we are going to want to be friends with you too. At least, that's how it went with Melissa and Bradley.

These two are simply amazing, and we cannot wait to do their wedding next September!

Have a look at a few of our favorite images from their fantastic Engagement Session in Logan Square:

Trent and Lauren's Engagement Session

This beautiful couple was so easy to work with.  They came with a lot of great ideas, were perfectly styled and had an abundance of enthusiasm for the shoot! We had a lot of fun going to the various locations they chose, and even grabbed some ice cream from a bicycle vendor!

It was a beautiful day for their session, and we couldn't have asked for better light to work with!

Congratulations on your engagement, Trent and Lauren!
