Have you ever dreamt of a romantic date night straight out of a Hallmark movie? Picture this: a charming couple strolling hand in hand through the quaint streets of a suburban town, the soft glow of streetlights casting a warm ambiance around them. The gentle rustle of leaves in the gentle breeze, the soft sound of laughter drifting through the air. This is the scene that inspired our latest engagement session in the suburbs of Chicago.

When Colleen and Johnny told me that they want their engagement session to feel like them, I knew exactly what to do. For all my couples, I have them fill out a questionnaire that basically allows me to learn more about them – their likes, dislikes, favorite dates, movies, etc.. From there, I create a unique engagement session experience! And for Colleen _ Johnny, the inspiration was “Date Night in Town” with a Hallmark movie inspiration vibe.

From running around a mini golf course to strolling through downtown Geneva with some ice cream, Colleen and Johnny absolutely brought it! Their love, joy, and smiles radiated throughout our time together! And it was so special for me to document it all for them. I knew their love story was something truly special.

As a Kansas City wedding photographer, who was born + raised in Chicago, loves to travel, and has a passion for capturing the raw, authentic moments of love, I was thrilled to have the opportunity to document their love story!

Colleen and Johnny’s engagement session was like a scene from a romantic movie come to life.

As a documentary style wedding photographer, I strive to capture the essence of my couples’ relationships in a way that is authentic and true to who they are. I want my photos to tell a story, to evoke emotions and memories that will last a lifetime. With Colleen and Johnny, it was easy – their love was so pure and genuine, it practically jumped off the screen.
