Rebecca & Aaron :: Downtown Chicago Engagement Shoot :: 2.17.13

Meet Rebecca & Aaron ... another amazing couple who was willing to fight through Chicago's bitter winter weather. 

They live in the most amazing building in River North, with fabulous brick walls and a gorgeous rooftop view of the Chicago skyline. For obvious reasons, we stayed inside for most of the engagement session, but made sure to make it to the infamous Bean as well as a few shots on Michigan Ave. 

They are adorable together and a blast to work with. I'm so looking forward to their wedding this October at the gorgeous Room 1520!!

Jennifer & Chris :: Chilly Downtown Chicago Engagement Session :: 2.16.13

A downtown Chicago winter engagement session is not the easiest thing to pull off. It's a constant battle of the elements and never knowing just what Mother Nature is going to hand you. However, with amazing clients, plenty of hot tea breaks and a mini session in Lincoln Park's Conservatory, it's more than feasible .. and fun!!

Jennifer & Chris were so great to work with!! As I said it's not easy pretending your warm and comfy with a wind chill of 9ยบ!! Yet, I think they did a pretty amazing job!!

We started out right in the heart of downtown near Michigan Ave, the Chicago theater and the river walk. Taking only a few short breaks at Argo Tea and the Corner Bakery in order to regain feeling in our fingers and toes. :) We then took a short - but very warm - cab ride to the Conservatory to seek a location of some warmth!! The Lincoln Park Conservatory never disappoints  It is so incredibly gorgeous, I absolutely love shooting there!! If you haven't been before, go!! It's well worth the trip .. and free!! Ending the session back outside, we walk around the gardens and the Lincoln Park Zoo.

Although it was chilly, I thoroughly enjoyed working with Jennifer & Chris and I can't wait for June for their wedding at the Royal Melbourne Country Club in Long Grove, IL!!
