Jennifer and Chris took a trip back to one of their favorite places at Starved Rock near Oglesby, Illinois, while seeking the photos that would say it all about their engagement.
The Chicago-couple (okay — actually Frankfurt couple but Chicago sounds much nicer to me!) found themselves all over the place in a short period of time as we attempted to capture their essence as a couple.
You could say they’re a bit in love. Well, maybe a lot in love! And the day proved to be perfect for capturing that intensity. It was a bit wet (muddy) for our trip but this did not do anything to lessen the fun.
This is the place where Chris proposed to Jennifer — and where they said they make a yearly pilgrimage. Who can resist? It is a gorgeous, gorgeous place to visit. Water, trees and lots of beauty. And they had no problems fitting in.
She teaches photography at a high school while he is a pipe fitter. I have to admit, this combination seemed a bit unusual to me. Silly me. It’s pretty obvious they were meant for each other.
They are getting married just a bit later this summer — so watch out for more photos coming in the not too distant future of this beautiful couple.
Jennifer and Chris share a moment under beautiful skies while visiting Starved Rock for their engagement session with us.
Chris can't resist just a little nibble on his bride!
Okay -- just a simple shot of this cool couple.
Who can resist a bit of time playing in the park.
