New York City Engagement Photos Brooklyn Bridge & Washington Square Park Well, you know what they say… the early bird gets the Brooklyn Bridge! On a crisp, November morning, I woke up in New York City for travel engagement session. Before the sunrise, I met Rachel and Nick at the Brooklyn Bridge and for a […]

On a chilly March morning, I met Joan and Zach at North Avenue Beach just as the sun began to rise over Lake Michigan. You would never guess how early or how cold it was by the looks on their faces. Total pros. 😉 I originally photographed these two in 2020 when many parks and […]

Just a little under one year before their wedding day, I met Lexie and Alex along the Chicago Riverwalk for their beautiful engagement photos.

Chicago, your winters may be cold, but boy are you pretty. Elizabeth and Ashish wanted a winter engagement session, so we crafted a plan tailored around just that. Elizabeth’s bright red coat was the perfect winter engagement session accessory.

Sunrise Couple Portraits in Downtown Chicago Ella & James SO MUCH love and laughter with these two! I met Ella and James just as the sun was rising and we had the entire city to ourselves. Thank you for bringing such fun, happy energy to a very early morning! Hoping you two had a wonderful […]

After an unexpectedly slow year, it has felt *AMAZING* getting back into my rhythm with engagement sessions. I’ve missed these so much! I am absolutely swooning over Jessica and Sam’s engagement photos. It was so much fun to work with these two! We started our adventure around some of my favorite city bridges and Chicago […]

The West Loop feels a little bit different this summer, but it’s still just as charming as ever for photos. I had a blast exploring one of my favorite Chicago neighborhoods all over again with these two favorites! Spoiler alert: this sweet couple will be getting married OH SO SOON and I cannot wait for […]
