Best Engagement Session Chicago

Best Engagement Session Chicago
This time of year we always see an increase of people, however the good thing is when we got to the actual beach we hit the golden hour where the sun had just started to set.

         Engagement Photography in Chicago with Hayley and Alex

When I first met Hayley and Alex, I instantly knew we would be taking some very unique engagement photos with them in the Chicago area. The couple plans to have their wedding in February at the Art Institute of Chicago.

I love Chicago city because you always find couples from a variety of different backgrounds with some great and interesting combinations. I think this was one of the best engagement session in Chicago.
