Roger's Park Engagement Session

As a queer wedding photographer, getting to tell queer love stories and capture LGBTQIA+ engagement photos and weddings is one of my greatest honors, and I felt all those feelings in spades with these two during their engagement session in Rogers Park.

Punk Summer Motorcycle Engagement Session

From their matching Vans to their classic all-black outfits, this punk engagement session was so much fun from start to finish. I love engagement sessions with motorcycles now, so if you love your motorcycle like they do, just know I’m down for the ride! (Get it? Anyway, faves below)
