Monday: Marry Me? | Megan and Jon’s Downtown Chicago Engagement Session in the Sunset

March 28th, 2011

View Megan and Jon’s beautiful engagement session in the sunset. See the lakefront, Adler Planetarium & Northerly Island beach.

 

Firstly, I’m back!! I had the best 4 weeks spending time with family, catching up with friends and enjoying all my favorite hometown foods in Malaysia! More to come on that in the coming weeks, but for now, here is a B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L engagement session downtown. The weather that day was perfect – not too cold, not too hot. The light was a gorgeous golden brown for hours – my FAVORITE thing about sunsets here in the west (that’s one thing I noticed while I was home in Malaysia – the sunset is different! The sun doesn’t stay low on the horizon for very long, giving very little angled light, and golden glow. I’m so glad to be back in the US!).

Enjoy these beautiful images (good looking people didn’t hurt either!)!

The Night Cupid Struck

May 6th, 2010

One fateful night, Robert was standing outside Hangge Uppe on Elm and Rush in downtown Chicago, about to call it a night, until a cab pulled up in front of him. Then he saw her. Robert described that moment to me: “…and then, Noly walked out of the cab, dressed all in black, and alofasu’n [...]

 

One fateful night, Robert was standing outside Hangge Uppe on Elm and Rush in downtown Chicago, about to call it a night, until a cab pulled up in front of him.

Then he saw her.

Robert described that moment to me: “…and then, Noly walked out of the cab, dressed all in black, and alofasu’n I started gett’n the pitter-pat…….right here….” he said as he patted his palm on his chest. “…she took my breath away.”

“He reached out, grabbed my hand, and pulled me into Hangge Uppe,” Noly said, with her oh-so-cute Spanish accent.

Needless to say, they hit it off, and “technically” had their first date that night! “And then I snuck a kiss at the end of the night,” Noly gave me a little wink as he told me that.

“And ever since, we’ve been together.”
