Autumn Engagement Photos At Lemon Lake

An engaged couple embraces at the edge of the pier at Lemon Lake County Park.

Emily and Chris spent a late Friday afternoon with me at Lemon Lake County Park for their Fall engagement session. We battled with the wind for awhile (my light stand and Emily's hair) as we made our way from the deep woods onto the lake.

The Autumn leaves took on a hint of yellow as the soon to be married couple chilled next to the old wooden bridge.

I did my best impersonation of the paparazzi as I spied upon Emily and Chris as they smooched away on the various benches and hidden forest of the park.

Engagement Photos At Porter County Municipal Airport

A romantic kiss in front of a vintage airplane.

Every good flight requires proper planning - instrument panels must be inspected, destinations must be mapped out, propellers and engine checked. Most of all, a good travel companion must be selected!! All this and more was accomplished at Emily and Todd's engagement session at Porter County Municipal Airport in Valparaiso, Indiana. (Click images to enlarge)

Romantic travel plans at Porter County Municipal Airport.

Will Todd being flying alone on this trip? Will Emily board the aircraft by herself? Of course, any journey between lovers must have a long goodbye, complete with a romantic stroll upon the airport tarmac...

Perhaps this journey requires Emily and Todd to travel together. As the sun begins to set, a decision must be made....

Cute Engagement Photos At Taltree Arboretum

Two Chicago Cubs fans kiss in a field at Taltree Arboretum for their engagement photos.

Shane and Tiffany's big request for their engagement photos at Taltree Arboretum was to show off their jerseys for their beloved Chicago Cubs. No problem!!

We started off the engagement session with this cute couple strolling around the beautiful nature park with it's many colorful flowers and picturesque lake.

We photographed in the nearby woods as well as the garden area before Tiffany and Shane displayed their Cubs fandom and promoted their upcoming 2016 wedding. Tiffany's ring looked spectacular and we definitely needed to show that off for a few shots.

I hope you have enjoyed this sneak peek look at Tiffany and Shane's engagement session at Taltree Arboretum. At this writing the Chicago Cubs lead the National League in wins. Later this year we will be celebrating this couple's wedding, but I have a feeling a pennant celebration will also be in order!! World series win? This will be an October wedding!! :)

Rainy Day Romantic Engagement Photos At Ogden Gardens Park

A kiss in the rain at Ogden Gardens Park in Valparaiso

When I arrived at the beautiful Ogden Gardens in Valparaiso, Indiana for Kelly and John's engagement session, rain started to slowly drizzle down. Now, I love overcast days for pictures, but I wasn't sure if Kelly and John wanted to chance it. I gave them a call and they said "let's do it". I'm so glad they did as the raindrops added a unique element to many of our photos and the couple's lovely spirit of fun remained intact. If you look closely, you can see the droplets of water around them.

Some candid moments between two lovebirds during their engagement photos.

I love to take artistic and romantic engagement photos for couple's to show off in large prints in their home and also for Save the Date cards and a Wish Book for display at the reception. I also love to leave them alone and just let them be together for awhile to capture some candid moments.

Kelly brought along an umbrella to match the greenery of Ogden Gardens and the rain just made things even more saturated in color. It was a wonderful session with a wonderful couple. I'm very much looking forward to their wedding at Sand Creek Country Club.
