Anna+Jeff : Promised | Springfield, IL Fall Wedding Photographer

Oh happy happy fall!  As cliche as it is, I just adore fall, and I LOVE photographing with all the changing color! And…I love all the engagement sessions fall brings!  I totally get why people want this to be the season for those sessions, and I love it all!  I met Anna and Jeff recently at a park that holds great significance to them, and as it happens, to Michael and I!  Both couples shared their first date there…and their proposals!   I love sharing this with them.  Anna and Jeff are sweet, and funny, and kind, and crazy about each other.  Their relationship is deeply rooted in their faith and I love it that they so get that they are making a beautiful choice to love each other forever, even when it gets hard.  I felt an instant connection with these two when I met them, because of who they are and because of their story, and their engagement session just further proved that for me.

Anna is SO full of life and joy, and that really is my kind of girl! And Jeff just adores her, you can tell that he knows he is the luckiest man alive to have her!  Their joy and excitement is infectious.  We ended the session at the very spot he proposed, and it was just so sweet to be there with them for the first time since that day.  I cannot WAIT for their June wedding next year.  Meet Anna and Jeff:
