Meghan & Alex | Engagement Session in Lockport, IL


I recently had the pleasure of capturing an engagement session in Lockport, IL—a charming little town right here in the Chicago suburbs of Illinois. The drive was a bit of a ride, but it was totally worth it for those small-town, cozy vibes that made the day so special.


The weather set the perfect fall mood—cloudy and chilly—adding an extra layer of warmth and intimacy to our session. They booked me for their wedding, and I always include a complimentary engagement session with every package so I can get to know the couple better. It was such a delight to see their love shine through in every shot.


We wrapped up the day with a relaxing cup of coffee, taking a moment to savor all the sweet memories we created. I’m so excited to be part of their journey and can’t wait for their wedding day!

If you’re looking for authentic engagement photography in the Chicago suburbs of Illinois, I’d love to capture your love story too.
