I traveled to the west suburb of Oak Park where I met up with Matt and Emily for their engagement shoot. We started on their front porch, but they invited me into their back yard to meet the most important member of the family.
Ozzie!
Look at those eyes. How could you not love this face?
His owners treated him to some peanut butter on the nose. Look at him cross those baby blues!
Too adorable.
We left Ozzie with his peanut buttery treats and went to the park to take some human-only pictures.
The fall colors were in full display as we walked through the park.
It was so pretty in the forest preserve that it was hard to leave!
After our walk in the woods we made our way to downtown Oak Park for some more urban backdrops.
I think I may have to pop in to Oak Park more often to shoot! The murals were everywhere.
Whew! All this photography made us work up a thirst.
We were near the Marion Street Cheese Market, which is one of Matt and Emily’s favorite places, so we stopped in for a beer.
Matt and Emily gave me some great recommendations from the menu.
And I loved my time in Oak Park, too! Thanks for showing me around town, Matt and Emily.
