Fashion Inspired Engagement Session

Engagement sessions in the fall can be tricky. It could be 50 or minus 5 degrees. This past Saturday we had the pleasure of photographing this lovely couple and fortunately, the weather cooperated as much as can be expected. It was mostly overcast and in the mid forties. Christina and Anthony came prepared. We began shooting at Union Station and made our way east down Jackson Boulevard hitting the Chicago river, the financial district, and finishing at Federal Plaza. As with all of our engagement sessions, we shot for about two hours. By the end of our shoot we laughed as Anthony prescribed, “that wasn’t nearly as bad as I’d feared it was going to be.” We take that as a compliment.

Chicago Engagement Photography Session

E-Session | Chicago | Loop – Millennium Park We really wanted to capture the city as much as the couple.

We shot around the Frank Ghery band shell and Crown Fountain where digital faces spit water throughout the summer. We also took advantage of the beautiful flowers and landscaping of the Lurie Garden. We opted not to fight the crowds around ‘The Bean’ (Cloud Gate) and we ultimately finished our shoot in the center of Michigan Avenue – the city’s most …
