Ambassador Chicago Proposal Photos on Rooftop

Ambassador Chicago Proposal Photos on Rooftop

Daniel had been planning this moment for months. He booked us as his Chicago proposal photographer back in February?!

We talked through so many options. He wanted the perfect location. Something that says Chicago. Something romantic.

Chloe had no idea. =)

The location kind of fell into his lap…and as you scroll through their Ambassador Chicago Proposal photos…we can all agree that he made the right decision!
