Adam & Ellen’s Engagement Session

Robert — Fri, 24 Jun 2011 02:04:21 +0000

Adam & Ellen are a warm, friendly couple who’s engagement session I photographed recently on what started out as a pretty nice evening and then cooled off pretty quickly especially by the Lake. Their wedding is planned for next year in Naples Florida which I’m sure will be a phenominal event. Here are a few of my favorites from the session.

Mike & Heather’s Engagement

Amy and I met Heather and Mike at the North Pond Restaurant for their engagement session. This is a perfect location with some really scenic views. We made our way down Clark Street and then back over to North Avenue Beach stopping at all sorts of interesting spots along the way. They were both so easy going and up for anything even though we were literally attacked by the mosquitos at Lily Pond, and had to cut that spot short. Their wedding is planned to be held in Maui, Hawaii next year. Here’s a few of the session’s highlights.

Jon & Emily Engaged

Jon & Emily decided on having their engagement photo session at the Chicago Botanic Garden which is an excellent choice with its wide diversity of beautiful backdrops. Our session went right up into sunset ending with some classic images. Jon & Emily’s fun personalities really shine through in theses photos which is the first thing that stands out. I’m really looking forward to their wedding later this year.

Jessica & Chris are getting married later this summer in this really cool mansion. We had a wonderfull engagement photo session and couldn’t have asked for a better day. Here are some of my favorites and can’t wait for the wedding day.

Sankat & Selina Engagement Photographs

I had a recent engagement session with Sankat & Selina and they were a blast of fun, and up for just about anything. We hit a ton of great spots including Old Town, North Ave Beach, and Michigan Ave. Their peronalities really came through and I had a tough time narrowing down some of the highlights here because there are so many great images.

Greg & Jennifer’s Engagement

Greg & Jennifer are planning an intimate wedding on the Island of Lana’i Hawaii later this year. They are a stunning and fun loving couple and we had a blast photographing their engagement session. Here are a few highlights.

Ben & Jill’s Engagement Session

Robert — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 05:00:24 +0000

I met Ben and Jill earlier this year. They’re having an outdoor wedding next summer which should be an awesome event. We had a chance for an engagement session before the weather got too cold. When I get a naturally phogenic couple like the two of them it makes my work pretty easy.

Kevin & Amy Get Re-engaged

Robert — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 01:48:51 +0000

Kevin & Amy flew down from South Dakata to enjoy a weekend in Chicago and take in a Cubs game several weeks ago. Unfortunately it’s the start of another world series without our cubbies.

Kevin and Amy are already married but wanted to do a pseudo-engagement session here in Chicago where Kevin had proposed to Amy some years ago. They’re a fantastic and outgoing couple that I really enjoyed photographing. Amy owns and operates Amy Lawrence Photography in South Dakota and she was just as incredible in front of the camera as she is behind the camera.

As luck would have it, we were blessed with one of the most amazing sunsets over the skyline which made for some very dramatic images. Here are a few of my favorites from the session.

Andy & Emily Get Engaged

Andy & Emily flew up to Chicago from Florida to see a show. Little did Emily know, Andy had much bigger plans! He suprised her with a marriage proposal on the beach where me and my assistant discretely waited for the big moment. Afterwards we finished up with some more pictures around Navy Pier. They were a fun couple to photograph, here are a few highlights.
