Working with the same family for multiple weddings is something I really enjoy. Having been the photographer for Seth’s sister’s wedding, I am excited to have the opportunity to do the same for him and his bride-to-be Melanie. If the energy the day of their wedding is anything like it was for this awesome engagement session, then we’re in for a great time!

As lovers of the city, Lauren and Josh wanted to feature some popular areas for their engagement session. We headed downtown to the Chicago River, the Riverwalk, El Train, Millennium Park, and the Lurie Gardens, capturing the sweet moments.

I truly do enjoy when the couple makes their engagement session personal to them and their relationship. For Laura & Victor, not only did we photograph in their neighborhood of Fulton Market, but we also stopped by the spot of their first date at RM Champagne.

I feel like Sara & Mike’s engagement session started a trend for my couples….. beginning their sessions at their favorite pub / tavern / brewery. For them, it was an awesome little placed called Beermiscuous in Chicago’s Lakeview neighborhood.

I'm always here to help my couples with deciding where to photograph their engagement sessions.  I have plenty of advice and insight about where to go in our beautiful city.  That said, I'm always interested to hear their ideas and see what they bring to the table. 

To date, this has to be one of the most unique engagement sessions I've photographed.  When I'm discussing engagement photo ideas with my clients, I always questions like: "What places have meaning for your relationship?" or "What do you both like to do together?"  Tam & Brendan didn't hesitate and asked "We like to sit on our couch and eat sushi together.

I truly had fun time photographing Shannon & Morgan's engagement session!  I first need to thank the good folks over at Revolution Brewing for allowing us to shoot in their taproom. 

I had an absolute blast photographing Shelly & Josh for their engagement session!  As with many of my recent sessions, we found ourselves starting off at the couple's favorite bar, Jake's Pub.  In addition to planning on where to go for engagement portraits, I always ask the couple what they like to do together.

truly had a wonderful time photographing Kacie & Varun's engagement session in Humboldt Park.  When it comes to choosing locations for the shoot, my advice to all couples I work with, is to choose places that have significance to them.

Sharing my favorite images from Carissa & Blake's engagement session since I just photographed their wedding! 

Kim & Chad are truly a fun-loving couple, with a natural chemistry.  The Morton Arboretum was a perfect backdrop for their engagement session, and I'm truly looking forward to their wedding coming up in August!

I had a fantastic time working with Sonali & Prithvi!   For their engagement session we photographed at some of my favorite locations in Chicago.
