Jaryd & Kaleigh were able to get inside Wrigley Field for a portion of their Engagement Session in Chicago Illinois.

We started mid/late afternoon & being as though Jaryd had previously e-mailed WF & asked permission to shoot inside he was not giving up.  He went in & spoke with someone & with a small dontation to the Chicago Cubs charity we were able to photograph inside for approximately 45 minutes.  It was fantastic.  I think we all were giddy with excitement.  Whether you are a Chicago Cub fan or not, you can’t help but think this stadium is absolutely beautiful!

It was a great way to kick start a fantastic e-session in Wrigleyville.

Thanks to the Chicago Cubs for helping us out that day!

After we left WF we walked around the area & even hit up the L-train nearby.

Fun people. Fun textures. Fun times.

We just simply could not help but laugh when we were with K & J.  They are so cute together.  Laughing, making jokes & having lots of fun together.

Thanks for being up for anything & sitting on the dirty dirty floor whenever we asked.

We can’t wait for your wedding this December!

Enjoy the sneak peeks!

Love it.

I imagined this shot when we were inside, in my head & this is exactly what I imagined.  It feels so old fashioned to me.

I think K just got done making fun of J here for answering his phone, mid session.  Sorry J, you deserved it

Absolutely, hands down FAVORITE of the day.

Another fabulous ring shot by Michelle b.

Nor really sure what I said here, but I love the reaction nonetheless

We thought about eating a snack here, but it was too busy.

Kaleigh, shut your hair in this shot.  It is fantastic.  {props to the train going by up above}

Good times.

Love the look that J is giving the Ice Cream man as he passes by here…

{again a big fat HUGE thank-you to the super rad second shooter :: michelle b.}

Shut the sliding glass door.  These two are frick-frackin’ adorable.

We had a BLAST shooting Chris & Crystal’s engagement session in Wrigleyville.

We started out fairly early in the morning & walked around the area surrounding Wrigley Field & found some amazing colors & textures, even a beer truck.

After trying very hard to get inside of Wrigley, we decided a Roof top view would do & WOW was it amazing to be up there & look down @ Wrigley Field.

We had a great day & ended with a wonderful lunch @ Vines on Clark st. {thanks again Chris & Crystal}

Enjoy the sneak peek & have fun in Las Vegas

BTW they look this cute, naturally.  AHHdorable.

This is what happened to get this next shot.

Us : walking down the street by Wrigley, in front of Bar Louie, passing by a beer truck

Dudes in the front seat of the truck : “What’s going on here?”

Me: “Oh, an engagement, why?  Do you want to let my clients sit in the back of your truck?”

Dudes: “Oh, for sure, hold on a minute…”

Now who said Illinois people were not friendly?

Super fabulous shot done by the super fabulous Michelle b.

Starting to shoot around Wrigley, good ‘ole Harry Caray

Their fav # is 21

I think my favorite image from the day

OK so we were not able to get in to Wrigley Field, but while we were shooting around the outside Michelle happened to notice that one of the rooftop buildings behind Wrigley was offering FREE tours.  Who were we to ignore that?  So we toured this fabulous building & our first stop was in the middle & was this fabulous, uber-modern suite with 25+ flat screen tvs & fabulous furniture & it appeared to have it’s own kitchen.

After we cooled off in the suite, we continued upstairs to the top & this was our view :

Then as you went to the very top & near the back, this was the view.

Love Chicago. Love this shot.  Love C & C

Another great shot by Michelle, in front of WF

{Have I mentioned how much I am in LOVE with my Fish Eye lens?}

{{ A big huge THANKS to my wonderful wonderful second shooter Michelle B.  I had a BLAST shooting with you, your the bestest }}
