From Alea Lovely…Rachel and Gareth met through a fashion site called ” Look book”. He was a Fashion Photographer from England and she was a model from Chicago. After much time admiring her style he emailed her and the short story is they fell in love, applied for the long fiance visa process and Gareth moved to Chicago to marry his love. Because of the unique visa situation the were required to get married soon after his arrival and these are their engagement photos.
They love Chicago where they live and thought Navy Pier would be the perfect place to play up their personalities. We started off on a small boat that would take us to the pier. Arriving at the pier we set off to find cotton candy. They both love cotton candy so that was a simple but important detail about them.
