engagement session

Holly & Michael | Engaged | Naperville, IL

I'm so excited to post some of my favorites from Holly and Michael's engagement session.  These two are so fun.  I can't wait for their wedding next year!

The lights around downtown Naperville created a perfect backdrop for this winter engagement session.  Enjoy!

Sarah & Brian | Engaged | Lisle, IL

When Sarah & Brian asked to have their photos done at the Morton Arboretum I was so excited.

Since they are getting married in Chicago next year, they preferred something very different from a city shoot.  This was the perfect setting for just that. The colors were absolutely perfect, and I am so glad the weather cooperated!

The photo below is one of my favorites.  Is it weird that I kind of want to hang it up in my house?
