Lauren + Jeffrey’s Engagement Session!

Chicago Riverwalk + West Loop Engagement Pictures

Lauren + Jeffrey are getting married later this year! We made sure to take advantage of all the beautiful views along the Chicago Riverwalk for the first half of their engagement session! I love this first photo with the Chicago river in the background-

With the sun shining, you would never know this photo was taken in early March!

We headed out to the West Loop for a few photos with an industrial vibe! It was also the perfect spot for their dog! As an engagement photographer in Chicago, I’m always on the hunt/lookout for different views of our skyline!
