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...

Love these Mary!! We are so excited to see the rest!
LOVE the fall colors!!
This is where Sarah (of Sarah + CJ) came in.
Sarah is a super rad graphic designer for a hip firm here in Toledo, and instead of attempting to make my own new letterpress cards, I contacted Sarah to see if she'd be interested in the work. By the time we wrapped up the design, Sarah mentioned that she would like to do another engagement-esque photo shoot that encompassed her and CJ's love of water and water sports. They were super photogenic the first time, so I was all for another shoot. Times are tough, and I am definitely willing to barter ;)

Some good looking people and some wonderful photography! Beautifully rich and thoughtful compositions and nice use of rack focus. Fantastic work

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.

Love the whole series. Loving, playful feel. Nice taste of the city. Shot along the tracks may be favorite, but great composition throughout.
