What do you get when you mix two Chicago-based cuties and my favorite St. Paul location?! Magic!! Meet Taylor and Johnny! These two are Chicago-based and came in town for our engagement photos together. We had the perfect summer evening for their session. Since these two aren’t from the area, I have them some suggestions and they landed on the gorgeous Como Lakeside Pavillion and Como Conservatory because they’ll be getting married on Lake Como in Wisconsin next summer! Keeping with the Como theme 🙂 They have an amazing chemistry and I can’t wait for their wedding next summer.

Emma and Ryan are finally married!! These two originally planned to get married at the beginning of May at the Minikahda Club, but after a date change, venue change, guest count change, floral change, etc. etc. they tied the knot and it was beautiful as ever! They celebrated with 40 of their closest friends and family at the lovely Hotel Landing and it was such an intimate & special day.

This timeless, romantic engagement session is such a favorite of mine! I loved my session with Abby and Erik. They were so comfortable with each other and had such a fun spirit which made my job incredibly easy. I also loved their choices for outfits. They decided on a really timeless, polished look for their first outfit, and opted for a more casual, all-white look for the second. SO excited for their wedding next year!
