Adler Planetarium Engagement
The Chicago Adler Planetarium doesn’t just give you a glimpse into the awe inspiring universe, but also an amazing view of the Chicago skyline.Read More
Starved Rock Engagement
Normally a Starved Rock engagement session is a relatively close drive from the Chicagoland area, unless of course there’s a local fest happening and it takes you over 30 minutes to drive just a couple miles once you’re there! Read More
Hotel Lincoln Chicago Engagement
Long before Michael and Whit made their way to the Hotel Lincoln in Chicago, we began their engagement session with a more lifestyle theme. We really wanted their personalities to come forward which is along the lines of Michael playing with the dog in bed as Whit examines the two of them from a mildly perturbed perspective. Read More
Montrose Harbor Engagement // Stacey + Noe
Classic meets modern in this weeks featured shoot and we go from Montrose Harbor to Gilt Bar. If you’ve ever struggled with deciding between two vastly different spots, why not pick both? To kick off we went with the softer side of Stacey and Noe.
Chicago Modern Engagement // Regan + Troy
Classic Chicago is just sometimes the way to go for photos but with a slight twist. Regan spends a lot of her time dancing and being a dance and fitness instructor. When discussing ideas with the two of them we were leaning towards a “modern Chicago” feel and decided to work in Regan’s dancing into it! The story begins with the two of them both being at the same lounge (Violet Hour).Read More
Star Wars Themed Engagement // Katie + Paul
Star Wars Engagement
Well we’ve got a doozy for you this week and that doozy is a Star Wars Engagement – A Turn To The Dark Side! Katie and Paul fancy themselves as connoisseurs of all things comic book, Harry Potter and of course Star Wars! As the planning began of their engagement session and they said to me, “since you do a lot of themed shoots, what if we did a Star Wars engagement shoot?” And even though I haven’t been a die hard fan of Star Wars, I certainly am now! The thing that we all wanted to avoid was just grabbing a couple lightsabers and just going straight into a fight scene. Like any movie, there had to be some sort of story.Read More
Nurse and Doctor Pinup Engagement // Emily + Robert
The real life nurse and doctor duo known as Emily and Robert came in to our studio and expressed that they wanted something “a little different” for their engagement photo session. Ask and ye shall receive as I like to say.
Chicago Cultural Center Engagement // Ashley + Kyle
Chicago Cultural Center Engagement
One of my personal favorite gems to head to is the Chicago Cultural Center for shoots. And really you can capture images of just about anything there including the venue itself, high fashion portraits or even some quirky fun photos turn out great! Ashley and Kyle currently reside in St. Louis and one of the things that they wanted to make sure we did was to get a bit of Chicago in their engagement photos because we won’t have the opportunity to head into the city on their wedding day.
South Pond Engagement in Lincoln Park // Dani + Tom
Ahh the good ole’ South Pond at the Lincoln Park Zoo. The one thing that can be said about this location is that it’s a magnetic destination for engaged couples wanting to capture their photos! And who can blame them!? The South Pond location provides a splendid combination of city and nature. You can be paddling around the pond in a boat for two, surrounded by a lot of greenery and have a great view of the city off in the background.
