Shannon & Aaron // Lincoln Park Engagement Session

January 18th, 2012

I just love these images from Shannon & Aaron’s engagement session!  I used to work with Shannon, so it was really fun for me to get the opportunity to reconnect with her and to get to know Aaron too. They are both really sweet individuals, but you can tell they shine even brighter as a couple. I love when I get to photograph couples like this one! We started out at good old Starbucks for a little hot chocolate before we ventured out in and around Lincoln Park. Shannon & Aaron have a pretty great engagement story including a scavenger hunt leading Shannon to all of the places they went on one of their most memorable dates. Among these stops was at a Starbucks, so we took a few minutes to get a couple of shots of them inside. It ended up being a surprisingly nice day outside as well so we took full advantage of all the great little nooks and crannies in Lincoln Park.
I am so thrilled to be a part of Shannon & Aaron’s wedding this fall at The Byron Colby Barn!  I can’t wait!

Jen & Evan // Chicago Botanic Gardens Engagement Session

January 7th, 2012

We had the perfect fall day at the Chicago Botanic Gardens for Jen & Evan’s engagement session. It was particularly warm for the time of year, perfectly sunny and the best part…there was hardly anyone there. We pretty much had the place to ourselves. It isn’t very often you get to explore and photograph at the CBG with no worries of capturing any number of people in your shot. It was also a great opportunity for me to chat it up a little with Jen & Evan and learning a little more about them. They are both really sweet and thoughtful and just fun to be around. I’ super excited for their wedding this summer!

Sarah & Ernest // Chicago Cultural Center Wedding

January 5th, 2012

I have to say this was one gorgeous wedding! The ceremony and reception wee set in the breathtaking Preston Bradley Hall at the Chicago Cultural Center. Having a wedding filled with stunning details and a beautiful couple always makes for a fun day of shooting! I once again had the opportunity to work with the brilliantly talented event designer, Hilary, from Estera Events. I never cease to be amazed at Hilary’s talent and creativity! Working with Sarah & Ernest through the whole wedding process has been an absolute pleasure. See some of their engagement photos here. Not only was it very apparent at their wedding how much they adored each other, but it was also undeniable just how much they truly loved their friends and family.

Sarah & Ernest…Thanks so much for letting me share your day with you!spacer
