Alex & Ling’s Chicago Fall Engagement Session on Digital and Film

Lincoln Park Engagement

Earlier this month I met up with Ling and Alex for their Chicago fall engagement session in Lincoln Park! These two were recently engaged and a treat in front of the camera. Even though they will tie the knot in California next year, they wanted their engagement photos to represent the city they currently call home. I’m so happy they found me and asked me to capture these moments!

We met on the Nature Boardwalk in Lincoln Park on one of our last prime fall days of the season. Here’s a secret: most couples who want the “fall” look for their engagement photos hope for October, but early November is usually when colors peak in Chicago! Just sayin’! Alex and Ling’s session is a perfect example of that… and of course there is no shortage of photo locations in Lincoln Park. These two were all smiles and a breeze to photograph!

Chicago Lakefront Engagement Photos

When the sun began to set, we headed over to the lakefront for that iconic skyline view. I absolutely loved their second outfits – they even seemed to somehow match the sky! In case you didn’t know, North Avenue Beach is hands-down one of the most popular Chicago engagement photo locations in the city (and it’s not hard to see why!). If you’re planning to end your session here around sunset, expect to see several other couples and photographers doing the same. Good news is: the pier is long and there is always plenty of space for everyone to get their dream photos 🙂

Ling and Alex: Thank you again for having me this month!! I couldn’t be happier for you two and wish you nothing but happiness in Married Life!
