They are a blast to hang out with, have a ton in common with me + my hubster. I was honored and pumped when Carli asked me if I could take some new photos of the two of them. I knew they'd bring it. Photographing photographers is a different game... on one hand, they know how to 'pose', can visualize how they look in frame, on the other.... there's mass pressure (self inflicted) to bring my A-game.... I mean, can you imagine if I biffed up this shoot?
Photos... starting..... now!
I have visited Chicago a dozen or so times previous, but never with a Chicagoan. I really feel in love with the city during this trip. I thought Seattle was the only contender as a possibly place to move in a few years, but now Chicago is really looking to be the realistic option... so we shall see.
On with the photos...
These are amazing Mary!!!!!!! I can tell you had an amazing time shooting these! The colors are so amazing and vibrant! Her outfit is totally adorable too! Sooooooo second shooter for the rad future wedding?! ha!
I love that last shot in the underground train station. Delightful!

Wow Mary! I just stumbled on your website and Im lovin what I see. Love the photo processing that you do. My fav image from this shoot is the one with them on the outdoor staircase! also enjoy the reflections in the windows ; ) great work!

I just love, love, love these photos! Especially the photo in the subway tunnel!
Some good looking people and some wonderful photography! Beautifully rich and thoughtful compositions and nice use of rack focus. Fantastic work
GORGEOUS! Great looking couple, and great moments captured. Love it love it.
Love these, I can't pick which one I love most. I think it's a tie between the subway shot and the doorway shot on the busy street. They both look so relaxed and happy! Congrats Tyler and Brittany!!
Wow. These are some of the best engagement pics I've ever seen.
These photos look great, I really love the last one. Best of luck to you guys!
Simply stunning!
Love the whole series. Loving, playful feel. Nice taste of the city. Shot along the tracks may be favorite, but great composition throughout.
Congrats on mommy + daddy-hood!!!
What a gorgeous little one- her eyes are like galaxies. Great shots of this family- each member's character just shines through!
We had an absolute blast spending their day with them... and I feel incredibly lucky to have gotten to know these two people just a bit.
