I’m so glad Jen, a friend from back in my Drum Corps days sent my info to them. The bride and groom to be, or as you will see in a few shots, Mr. and Mrs.,  live in Indianapolis. I love to travel, so I was of course excited to shoot their wedding and engagement pictures out of town. They picked the Lilly Mansion and Gardens for one of our locations for engagement pictures. What an awesome spot. I could shoot there all day. After that we did a little hunting in downtown Indianapolis. Since I’m used to driving in Chicago I couldn’t believe how quiet downtown was. We had our pick of just about any spot we wanted to shoot. I’m definitely looking forward to returning for their wedding next May.

She is finishing up her fellowship in Pharmacy in Milwaukee. The humidity is finally back in Chicago so we hit the Chicago Lake Front in the beginning of the session. We ended down by the Wrigley building. It doesn’t get much better than Chicago for a night time session!

We’ve talked so much since then shooting their engagement session was more like walking around the city with good friends. I can’t wait for their wedding in October.

I was of course aware of their 160lbs Mastiff, Buckley. But his size really didn’t set in until walked in the house. He’s a big baby! Some of my favorite shots came from them all hanging out on the bed!

So, we started around dusk and worked our way through the city. This shot is going to print on canvas. I can’t wait to hang it as a sample. Check out Wedding Websites that I created for them.

We started at David and Jen’s new house and worked our way through the city. I was definitely grateful for the Starbucks stop!

A few of our locations include:
Adler Planetarium – The Chicago Skyline view is one of the best in the city.
Shedd Aquarium – The steps out front and around the back make for an interesting background
Michigan Avenue – What could be better than shooting on Michigan Ave in Chicago?
