In just over a month from my writing this, Kate and Steve will be getting married!

First, though, was our engagement session, which we began in this secluded corner by the lake.

These two make a great pair… they had each other laughing throughout the shoot.

There was even a little spinning!

After a quick outfit change, we headed to the other side of Lake Shore Drive for some pictures by the lily pond in Lincoln Park.

It rained for a few seconds but that didn’t stop us!


This is one of my favorites… doesn’t Kate look sublimely happy?


One last smooch by the lily pond…

…and then more smoochin’ by the South Pond Pavilion.

Our walk through the park left us thirsty, so we headed over to The Houndstooth Saloon in Wrigleyville.

This is where Kate and Steve met. It was only fitting that they shared a drink here during their session.


After drinks, we were ready to move again. So we ducked into an alley for this portrait.

And Steve started feeling a little frisky!

He gave his lady a lift…

…and he moved on to the rail yard on the city’s west side, our last stop for the day.


I had a great time working with you, Kate and Steve, and I can’t wait to work with you again at your wedding this August!
