Sometimes, the weather gods will gift you a perfect day at Indiana Dunes National Park. With temperatures in the 70s and clear skies for a perfect sunset, Matt and Katie’s engagement session was poised to be epic.
We met at Portage Lakefront and River Walk and started taking pictures just before the start of golden hour. The idea was to shoot some beach scenes and end with sunset photos.

Katie and Pat spent part of their Saturday strolling around Whiting Lakefront Park and Whihala Beach in Whiting, Indiana taking romantic engagement photos. We had the Northwest Indiana Symphony and a regional football game as our soundtrack. It was a lot of fun!

Katie and Pat live a few blocks from the picturesque park and I envy them as it is a beautiful location to visit. We made sure to start our session during golden hour for some lovely light and we waiting for a sunset over lake Michigan.

Hidden away along one of the walkways in the park is a gorgeous waterfall with beautiful landscaping. Katie and Pat and I spent quite a bit of time in this area capturing them from many different angles.

If you go to the beach, sometimes you have to put on some beach wear. This is exactly what these guys did to showcase some Chicago pride and take some fun photos along the pier. And no, Pat did NOT throw her in the water!!
A wonderful orange and yellow glow took over as the sun began to set over Whihala Beach. Some silhouette pictures were in order as well as sunset portraits. We took many more images for Katie and Pat's summer engagement session at Whiting Lakefront Park with much more to come. Happy summer!!

It was a great thrill to photograph Lauren and Eddie's engagement session in downtown Milwaukee. I had visited there many times and I knew how scenic it was. From the Art Museum to the Riverwalk and ending at the beach, we had a great time in Brew City for this romantic engagement session.
We started at the Milwaukee Art Museum in late afternoon with the wonderful architecture as our backdrop. I love the reflective windows as Lauren and Eddie took a stroll and of course the "wings" of the building had to be captured for our first dip of the day.

Eddie mentioned that he loved the view of the city from a bridge near Pritzker Pavilion that he discovered while jogging one day. It was a great spot and these two soaked up the sun with the city in the background.

For a more urban flavor we visited the Riverwalk area for awhile with some romantic strolls on the boardwalk and some downtown city life photos. The sun reflected off the water as Lauren and Eddie shared a kiss on the pier.

We had quite the full sun on this pleasant summer day in Milwaukee and when we arrived at McKinley Marina it was still in full force. We used it to our full advantage as it gave a warm glow through all the wonderful trees in the park as well as nice reflection of our couples as they shared a laugh on the bed of rocks at the shoreline.

We had to take the classic photo of a barefoot couple walking in the sand along Lake Michigan. It was very peaceful as the water lazily washed up onto the shore.
