Where do I even begin with Mary & Matt? We met up a couple weeks ago for their Downtown Chicago engagement photos and thankfully the crazy rainstorm from the day before moved out and we didn’t have to reschedule! We had an overcast, windy day which I wasn’t complaining about one bit because the skyline in Chicago looks so good against the clouds and haze! Seriously, just look at it in the photos below! Not to mention the movement the wind added to the photos! Mary’s dress was floating in the breeze so beautifully! Mary is so bubbly and sweet and was so warm and welcoming from the first moment I met her. We were laughing like old friends in no time and bonding over podcasts we love, working from home and the fact that we both love dogs and currently want puppies even though the timing isn’t right for either of us. Matt & Mary want to get a Dachshund puppy and Matt even wore fun socks to their engagement session that had Dachshunds on them! The love Mary & Matt share was so beautiful to see and you could tell that he would do anything for her! I cannot wait to get these two back in front of my camera and hang out again at their Chicago private estate wedding next November!
