Liz + Montana | Engaged



Liz + Montana had such an awesome engagement session - Montana loves music, and plays the piano! They somehow wanted to incorporate a piano into their engagement session. They got on the phone and found the Smith Memorial Hall at the University of Illinois who let us use their grand piano for their session!!! How cool is that?! This room was so pretty and these two were super cute sitting on the bench together!

Then we headed out to my favorite field and sweated it out in the summer sunshine, but it was all worth it! We got some amazing shots of them.. can not wait for their October wedding -- it will be so pretty (and less hot!!) :D


















hehe! this one makes me giggle :D 





Bekah + Kory | Engaged



Man, I'm behind on blogging!!! I met up with these two last month to shoot some engagement photos and man, are they cute?! These two acted like they didn't know what they were doing for photos, but I know they totally did. They posed well, took great direction, and seriously just look so good together, our session was SO easy! I mean, it's not every day that a guy can show up in a t-shirt and rock their engagement photos.

AND - these two will be back on my blog soon, because they get married THIS WEEKEND! What!?! So excited!!! It's going to be so hot, I know I'll be sweating my tush off, but OH SO WORTH IT. :)


Check out these two.

Bailey + Steve | Married, IHotel wedding

This wedding... it was one of my favorite wedding days! I have known Bailey and Steve for what seems like forever, really only first meeting in 2015. We met at the Elegant Bridal Expo in Champaign, in January of 2015. These two were SO cute, I just kind of knew we would see each other again. Then, we did a contest on our facebook page, which Bailey and Steve WON! They got a free session, which they used for some engagement photos with us!

This May, they became one at the IHotel in Champaign-Urbana, while the shared the day with family and friends. The weather was perfect, their friends danced the night away, and we got some amazing photos! Win, win win, right there!!

Here is their blog post -- enjoy!!!
