Read MoreYou may recognize this pretty lady from her popular fashion blog "Marvelous in the Midwest!" The talent behind the blog, Cara and her love Matt, were such a joy to photograph (I mean, look at them!) Their engagement session took place at some of my favorite location in Lincoln Park and the weather was certainly cooperating! I am *obsessed* with how beautifully their film scans came out and cannot wait to capture their wedding day!

They're just so fun, sweet and playful - and that's also how we would describe their beautiful wedding!

Read MoreI met with a couple interested in wedding photography today and I asked them what abut our photos made them reach out to us over all the other photographers. I expected to hear something like "we love film photography" or "we saw this photo in such and such magazine," but their answer caught me surprise. The bride-to-be said "I think what really drew me to your website was the fact that it looked like your couples were genuinely having a really fun time working with you!" I loved her answer, as obviously, aside from beautiful photography, that is our goal!
When Bilu + Hao's film scans came in today right after my meeting and I saw the laughter and unmistakable happiness, I realized she was right. We DO have so much fun with our clients! Maybe because they're *this* stinking cute??!! We love our jobs at Bonphotage. That is all.

Read MoreWhen an engagement session involves cupcakes, lattes, books and Chicago - I am a happy photographer! This lovely couple is proudly serving our country abroad and when Ellen asked if I could capture their engagement during the few days they would be in Chicago, I was more than honored to do so!
