Chicago Engagement Session at the Riverwalk

May 23, 2025

Chicago’s Riverwalk is one of my favorite places for engagement sessions. It’s a space where the city feels alive — the water reflecting golden light, bridges framing the skyline, and couples finding their own quiet corners amidst the heartbeat of downtown.

What I love most about photographing here is the variety. In just a short walk, we can capture modern architecture, the sparkle of the river, and those intimate in-between moments when you forget the world around you and simply enjoy being together.

An engagement session is not only about photographs — it’s about celebrating your love story before the wedding day. The Riverwalk gives us the perfect mix of energy and calm: one moment you’re laughing against the backdrop of a glowing city, and the next you’re wrapped in each other’s arms in a quiet, hidden spot.

Every couple I photograph here leaves with images that feel both cinematic and deeply personal. The Riverwalk is iconic, but your love is what makes it unforgettable.

The Riverwalk offers so many ways to tell your story — from grand cityscapes to tender close-ups that feel like no one else is around. Each photograph becomes a reminder of how it felt to be right there, together.
