Spring Pilsen Engagement Session – Leah & Jake

A few weeks ago I met Jake and Leah at Cafe Jumping Bean for their Pilsen engagement session. They were as cute as can be, giddy with excitement and affection for each other. We talked about their story, their wedding plans, and their unconditional love for the Chicago Cubs. I learned that they first met in math class in high school, reconnecting after years of being apart. Jake popped the question during a trip to Kentucky, and the rest, as they say, is… their beginning!

I had so much fun exploring Pilsen with these two, checking out graffiti murals and strolling through the neighborhood. They definitely have a sense of adventure – I am beyond excited for their wedding this fall!

Congrats again, Leah and Jake! This IS the year.
