Connie + Bill
The Art Institute of Chicago

I can hardly contain my excitement from this weekend’s engagement session, so I’m unveiling the first set of previews taken at the Art Institute of Chicago. Thank you to Connie and Bill for letting me share my happy place with you! Photographing at the Art Institute was a dream come true. And I have a feeling it won’t be my last time (crossing my fingers to finally shoot a wedding here this year or next!!). The Art Institute of Chicago has been one of my favorite places period since I was a little kid. Field trips here were always my favorite and I have so many memories of getting lost in Sky Above Clouds (Georgia O’Keeffe has been and will always be my favorite painter). The museum itself is an architectural gem, so if you’ve never been, buy yourself a ticket and visit!

Connie and Bill must have known that Chicago wouldn’t be in Spring shape by April, so we had been planning on doing an indoor session for months. We managed to photograph their entire session indoors (with the exception of a few quick shots outside of the museum), and I couldn’t be happier with the results. The first half of their engagement session will be shared later this week so stay tuned! This was my first engagement session of 2018 and I’m hoping this is a sign of so much more pretty to come.
