Brides and Grooms, take note. Engagement sessions are simply a must before you say I do. Just take a look below. This session from Olivia Leigh Photographie is picture proof that engagement sessions are nothing short of magic, and you can get lost in all the lovely right here.
From Olivia Leigh Photographie…Srinu and Eranthie are one of the most beautiful couples I’ve ever had a chance to work with, both inside and out. They were married in May 2013 on the south side of Chicago, and in the spring, we were able to do an engagement session to warm up before the big day. In the lead up to the shoot, the weather called for horrible thunderstorms, and even on the day of the shoot, the rain came pouring down. Given limitations with schedules, we decided the show must go on, and decided to keep the shoot at its given time. In a serendipitous twist of fate, almost the exact moment we started, the clouds parted, the sun came out, and it ended up being one of the most gorgeous days of weather and sun we had all spring. The connection and excitement between the couple was so obvious, and Eranthie’s amazing smile made for gorgeous photos. After starting in a casual outfit by their home, they changed into a more evening look, featuring the most amazing BCBG dress. Eranthie absolutely lit up while wearing this gorgeous gown, and the shoot took on an editorial feel in our more urban locations. It was a great reminder that wearing something you feel like a million dollars in can really affect your mood and translate to amazing photographs!
