We highly recommend selecting an Engagement Photo location that is unique to you and/or one that you absolutely love the vibe and feel.  If you are in need of some location recommendations a few of our favorites include The Morton Arboretum & Cantigny (both of which we have an annual pass Kiss those permit fees goodbye), Downtown Chicago (ex. Olive Park, the Wriggly Building, The River Walk, the Chicago Theatre, & Lincoln Park), and yes our very own Downtown Aurora (Neither require a permit).  Both Downtown Chicago & Downtown Aurora allow for us to maximize multiple locations.  If you are really feeling adventures you may want to consider Matthiessen State Park.

Engagement Session FAQ’s

Can I schedule an Engagement Shoot without a location?
No problem!  Many couples have yet to officially select a location but prefer to lock in a date on the safe side.  So long as we have a location 24 hrs before the shoot we are all set.  
 
Is there a cancelation fee?
No cancelation fee!  There are times when weather and/or life isn’t Engagement Session perfect.  We want your experience and photos to be extraordinary and have no problems should you need to reschedule to a better day and time. 
 
Should I bring a 2nd look/change of clothes?
We would highly recommend bringing a 2nd look/change of clothes.  You are also more than welcome to bring any props you would like for us to incorporate.  
 
Can I bring my fur baby?
No problem!  However, we would recommend having a family member or friend tag along to help handle the fur baby when not being incorporated.
