Bonphotage Fine-Art Lifestyle Engagement Session - Anastasia and Tony

When an engagement session involves pajamas, a cheese board and a Christmas tree, you know it's going to be cozy and awesome! Ana and Tony wanted their engagement session to reflect their love for the holiday season and their fun-loving relationship and I can honestly say, their engagement session accomplished all those things! Ana even had matching Christmas pajamas which Tony happily obliged to wear :) I can't wait for their wedding at the gorgeous Palmer House Hilton in downtown Chicago! 

Congrats you two and enjoy this sneak peek! xo, Bonphotage

Bonphotage - Chicago Surprise Proposal - James + Kristin

I knew when James contacted me to capture the proposal he'd been planning to his love Kristin, that this one would be special. Not only had be purchased a *stunning* yellow diamond but he had also arranged to have his mother, Kristin's mother and Kristin's best friend surprise her after the proposal. You'd never know the weather was below 30 degrees based on the happy smiles on this newly engaged couple! After ice skating and stopping for hot chocolate, they headed to Milton Lee Olive Park where Kristin thought they were meeting with one of their friends. Much to her surprise (scroll down for *priceless* surprise face), James dropped to his knee and asked her to be his forever. Of course, she said YES!

Congrats you two! We can't wait to capture your wedding day :)

Bonphotage Cafe + Cupcake Engagement Photography - Ellen + Owen

When an engagement session involves cupcakes, lattes, books and Chicago - I am a happy photographer!
