I just love this engagement session and this couple, and I couldn’t be happier that today is their BIG DAY!  These two are so playful together and just truly enjoy each other.  I seriously think I spent the entire session laughing so hard as Matt is super hilarious.  Hannah is so incredibly sweet, and these two make the perfect match!

The session started out great with the weather and towards the end it started raining.  BUT….these two went with it, and we were able to capture some really cool pictures in the rain!  As a matter of fact, a couple of these turned out to be my favorites!  They had so many pictures to select from as these two are naturals in front of the camera!

And so that brings us to today!  I can’t wait to begin photographing their beautiful wedding as the ladies are getting ready at Hotel Blackhawk (one of my very favorite venues), and then we’re headed over to The Outing Club for the ceremony and reception (another amazing location here in the Quad Cities).  The AMAZING Tamara Wendt and her team will be doing all the gorgeous details of today, and well, that’s always a treat when you know Tamara and her team will be involved!

I honestly can’t thank Hannah + Matt for trusting in me to document this amazing time for them!
