Chicago Engagement Photos, Millenium Park and Cloud Gate

While in town for Chicago Marathon, Joanna & Steve decided to have their engagement photos done in downtown Chicago and Millenium Park. Their wedding is next year at Blue Dress Barn, I can not wait, it is going to be a great party.









These images were shoot in the lobby of the Marriott hotel in downtown Chicago where Joanna and Steve stayed for the Marathon weekend. Yeas, Chicago Marathon was the reason they flew in from Phoenix, not me. They are one hot looking couple and we had so much fun during the shoot. I decided to use the lobby because it was too windy outside and wanted to get some intimate shots. It is hard to feel romantic when you are cold, so the colorful lobby was a great idea. Look at Joanna, she is one sexy runner.






How sweet it is ...







Steve is so romantic, like he stepped out of Sinatra era. How appropriate for Chicago enagagement shoot.

I could spend hours and hour exploring the Bean and it's reflections. Many interesting angles to see the Chicago skyline and
incorporate people into the composition.



Kiss under the Cloud Gate.
