Emily + Ben | UI campus engagement session on the Quad

Emily + Ben are getting married later this year at Pear Tree Estate and I can't wait!  They each chose 2 different outfits, and I love how the two outfits are basically the reverse of the other.  The couple wanted to bring their sweet puppy Chief along for a few photos and he literally lasted for like 2 poses and then he was done... haha!  Luckily, Emily's parents came along to take Chief off their hands for the rest of the session.  Ben wanted a few photos on campus, so we did the first half of the session on the Quad and around Lincoln Hall (a building I picked, but that Ben was very fond of!) and the 2nd half at Porter Park in southwest Champaign to take advantage of the open space and a clear view of the horizon for sunset.  And we lucked out and got a really great sunset.  Scroll down to see all my favorite images from their session! engagement session with couple's puppy
