Hyde Park Engagement Session : Chicago Engagement Photographer

I teased this engagement session once with this shot from Promontory Point. And then I teased it again with this shot from a Hyde Park side street. Now, finally, here are some of my favorite Hyde Park engagement photos from Ali and Bryan’s full session! Ali and Bryan live in Chicago’s fantastic Hyde Park neighborhood, so there was never any question of where they wanted to do their engagement pictures. We started off in Promontory Point before wandering around the neighborhood. Ali and Bryan may just be the goofiest couple I’ve ever worked with! I hardly needed to direct them at all because they were just having so much fun together. Ali and Bryan, I absolutely can’t wait for your wedding!
