These two sweet humans are members at my gym, Surge to New Levels in Carol Stream, and I patiently waited for Vinny to pop the question (he showed me the ring at the gym the week before he proposed) because I knew Julianna would be reaching out for photos immediately. With a long engagement planned so Julianna can finish school, they booked a Valentine’s mini session with me last month to document these moments of being newly engaged while still planning to do a full session once they begin wedding planning. Absolutely adore how these photos turned out and I am very much looking forward to continue working with these guys.
