Walking around North Avenue Beach with Hannah and Jake for their engagement photos was like going on a walk with old friends. We met Hannah and Jake a few months ago when we chatted with them about their fall Chicago wedding next year, and we love the vision they have for it! They're getting married in the city and Jake also proposed along the lakefront. They told us how each year they exchange a scrapbook of momentos, so when Jake proposed, he hung all the photos and notes they've shared. Hannah's sister took her to walk through them, before meeting Jake at Fullerton Beach where he got down on one knee and asked Hannah to spend forever together!
Hannah and Jake live just a few minutes from North Avenue Beach, and often take walks over there with their pup! It was so fun to capture engagement photos for them— another season of life to add to the photo memories they'll save for years to come! Hannah and Jake, we just loved hanging out with you two! We can't wait for your wedding next year! Hugs, Becky & Kaleb.
Wedding photography is my heartbeat. For me, it holds the perfect tension between creativity and authenticity, observation and connection. In front of my camera clients transform to friends, and behind it you'll usually find me tearing up, cheering you on, or holding my breath because of the raw goodness of the moment at hand.
