We’ve said it before and we will say it again, a spring engagement session at Olive Park is never a bad idea! The views of the skyline are hard to beat at Olive Park and when you combine that spot with the iconic Wrigley Building, it’s a recipe for an epic engagement session in Chicago!

The Love Story
“My fiancé and I met at a bar in old town Chicago out of pure chance. Not through mutual friends. Not through a dating app. Old school meeting that makes me so happy I was in the right place at the right time to meet my person.
My fiancé took me on my dream vacation to Napa Valley, CA. I love wine and so does he; reds are our favorite and he orchestrated a surprise proposal at a beautiful winery where a photographer was there to capture the moment. Hess collection winery has the most beautiful grounds and we enjoyed a private tour through their art gallery at the winery first before we sat down for our tasting. He then asked me to get up to take a selfie (this was in the height of Covid so weren’t asking others to take our photos for what I knew at least) and when I turned back around he was down on one knee. I said yes of course! And then we enjoyed a photo shoot to capture special moments together.”-Kristin & Ryan
The Ring
“It’s a beautiful cushion cut diamond surrounded by two layers of small diamonds round the main diamond in the center and on the band. I don’t wear jewelry typically so he went all out with this ring and got exactly the cut that I wanted with some special touches of a double halo around the main diamond and small diamonds on the band.”-Kristin and Ryan
