chicago engagement photographer | union station

Filed in: engagement

For a long time now I’ve been dying to shoot an engagement session at union station, so I’m sure you can imagine my delight when this couple requested that we have their session there. ย I think it’s safe to say that everything about the afternoon was perfect – the location was architecturally gorgeous, Ashleigh & Chris showed up looking amazing and with the biggest smiles on their faces, and the weather was beautiful (something that we are not often blessed with here in Chicago lol). ย I had so much fun walking around the station with these two, talking about their first date (did Chris really let Ashleigh beat him at bowling or is she really that good? I’m going with the latter ๐Ÿ˜‰ ), how they started dating, and of course their wedding which is set to take place this July. ย Thank you SO much Ashleigh & Chris for spending the afternoon with me and making my job so easy ๐Ÿ™‚
