Happy Friday, friends! It’s been a busy week, filled with good things: meeting awesome new couples, getting published in Junebug Weddings, and some exciting news in the works. But don’t worry! I was sure to make time for the Blog 🙂

Field Museum Engagement Photos

Today’s “retro” post goes out to Brittany and Jonathan. I will never forget their unique Field Museum engagement session! These two traveled overseas for their Chicago wedding in October 2019. Because they arrived a week or so early, we had a chance to get together for pre-wedding photos! And, while the Museum Campus is a popular location for iconic Chicago photos, Brittany and Jon were more interested in photos inside the museum. This request was a first for me, but I was ALL for it!

We met outside of Stanley Field Hall, and after taking in the grandeur of the place, headed up to see Sue. This was, most definitely, the main attraction for Brittany and Jon! I can’t speak for them, but I learned a thing or two about the Cretaceous period and the importance of this dinosaur. Did you know: Sue’s sex is undetermined? She was named after the scientist who discovered her in 1990!

Chicago Skyline Engagement Photos

When our T-Rex time was up, I was lucky enough to meet their sweet pup Artemesia! Thanks to Brittany’s mom for keeping her company while we learned about SCIENCE. We took a stroll across campus for a perfect view of the skyline, and I couldn’t get over how great these two were in front of the camera. That’s when I knew their wedding was going to be awesome. And it was!!
