I LOVED meeting Rochelle and Ryan and photographing their engagement session in Springfield, Illinois a few weeks ago!

We started at Washington Park and also visited downtown Springfield for photos! The evening was gorgeous with beautiful, warm light, and their love was glowing all throughout the session. It was completely contagious!

Rochelle’s casual, semi-casual, and dressy outfit choices were perfect for our locations, and we had a great evening walking around, talking, and getting to know one another. I love engagement sessions because they give me a chance to meet my brides and grooms, if we haven’t already, and to get to know one another before their wedding day. It is such a wonderful opportunity to learn how we work together and to get comfortable working together!

I am looking forward to working with these two again when I photograph their wedding day in October! I cannot even imagine how much love they will be glowing with then.

Rochelle and Ryan – I hope you love the natural beauty in the photos as much as I did! Can’t wait for your wedding!
