alright, here’s the deal: navy pier is the shizz. it doesn’t matter if you are only in chicago for the day and have your heart set on seeing the big sights (millennium park, willis tower, mag mile, etc.), or if you are a native chicagoan and detest the thought of walking around any place that might be construed as “tourist.” go to navy pier. right now. grab whoever happens to be closest to you at this very moment, bring a few bucks for a tasty treat (or don’t! walking around and seeing a lot of the stuff doesn’t cost a dime) and you will have a truly great time.
we say this, because we went to navy pier for the engagement session of the very awesome jen&frank. now, we have been there before (both to shoot sessions and for the heck of it), but we have never really taken it all in and really appreciated the charm of the place the way we did this trip. there are so many great places to shoot, we both feel like we could have kept going for hours. jen&frank looked fantastic, were up for anything, and were so fun together. the place can be so incredibly romantic that it makes taking photos there a dream. imagine this: jen&frank walking hand and hand down the crowded pier through the sounds of jugglers performing and families laughing. The smells of churros, cinnamon-roasted nuts, and gourmet popcorn are in the air - the stunning chicago skyline is twinkling in the background. are you kidding me?! we have the best job ever.
comment, comment, comment! jen&frank want free stuff!!

P.S. one of our good friends matt is going to be sailing a tallship he crews, the europa, into navy pier for five days of festivities starting 8/24. matt is one heck of a photographer, and has been voyaging from peru through the panama canal, up the eastern seaboard, and through the great lakes to get to chicago. we can’t wait to see his new stuff!
and to make it even more perfect, we did the whole shoot at and around
