This is the most crucial element to getting stellar engagement photos! While Chicago (and the surrounding area) has hundreds of beautiful spots to take great photos, you will tell the story of your relationship better if you pick a location or two that are symbolic of your relationship. Not only are you making the shoot and the images a more personal experience, you’re making unique images that will look different from the “standard” locations used by many.
That’s not to say that you can’t, or shouldn’t, use a popular location. It’s saying that when you share these images, you’re going to have more of a history to share of the photo with your family and friends. Imagine being able to say, “This shot was taken at (your personal spot), where my and my fiancé had our first date,” adding a richer tapestry to your images.
