Love was in the air during Anna and Jeff’s lakefront engagement session! Some of the best engagement photos result from two people in love laughing and simply enjoying their time together – and we certainly captured plenty of these types of photos during this sweet couple’s session. It was so much fun witnessing the love, laughter, and joy shared between Anna and Jeff as we snapped unforgettable photos along Lake Michigan.

From Coworkers to Partners

Anna and Jeff met at work. When she first met Jeff, Anna remembers thinking to herself, “Oh dang, I can’t believe how much I enjoy talking to this person, and I can’t believe how much he makes me laugh.” Jeff also loved how easy it was to talk to Anna. He said, “I hadn’t met any girls who could carry a conversation as easily as Anna and were as funny as she was.” He also mentioned that she had an easiness about her that people were drawn to – including himself, of course! After sharing little jokes and hanging out increasingly often, an incredible and unbreakable friendship was formed. Early on in their relationship, the two went to a wedding in Florida together for one of Jeff’s best friends. Although it was still very early in their dating story, Anna and Jeff had such a blast together that it sealed the deal for both of them. Afterwards, they even stared envisioning their own wedding. Yay for love and yay for weddings!

Anna loves that Jeff is always the funniest guy in the room, and that he really knows how to make her smile. Jeff appreciates that no matter what situation they are in, he knows that it will always be a good time as long as Anna is by his side. As a couple, they genuinely enjoy being around each other. Together, they love to go to Cubs games, grab a drink at their favorite neighborhood bar, take their dog on walks, and watch The Office and Teen Mom – although, they say they’re not proud of that last one! But hey, no judgement here, we all have different things we enjoy! These two also love sharing books (especially thrillers), watching comedies, traveling, and going to country concerts.

A Lakefront Engagement Session

To celebrate the love shared between this adorable couple, we took to the shores of Lake Michigan to capture some truly romantic, lakefront photos. Each moment was full of smiles and laughter, and it was so easy to see just how much Anna and Jeff love each other. Their stolen kisses, intimate glances, and warm embraces were absolutely swoon-worthy. They were so focused on each other, it was like I wasn’t even there, which makes for authentic and personal photos that the couple will cherish through time. Seriously, I have the best job!

Anna and Jeff’s upcoming wedding will be held in October of 2019, and we simply cannot wait! Anna and Jeff are incredibly excited about their venue at the Bloomington Country Club. They know it will be a great spot for everyone to have fun, while ensuring the entire day is still laid back and relaxing for them – which is so important! Besides the rustic and romantic feel, the love between Anna and Jeff is sure to make this wedding as magical as can be. The countdown to this day starts now!
