Are you getting ready for your engagement portrait Are you getting ready for your engagement portraits but don't know what to wear? 
Here are some tips from @emullinsphotogram that can help you figure out how to look your best and rock your engagement session. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Dress Comfortable: dress comfortably for the weather. If you're too cold or too warm, it WILL show on camera.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Wear Something You Can Move In: Layers are great for spring and fall! Feel free to incorporate an outfit change, but let's keep these to a minimum. Feel free to incorporate an outfit change, but let's keep these to a minimum.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Avoid Distracting Patterns: Avoid distracting patterns like stripes or zig-zags, and PLEASE – no words or logos! It's also a good rule of thumb to keep the scenery in mind. For example, if you wear green to our session in a forest preserve, you might blend in!​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Coordinate with Each Other: If one wears a cute pattern or print, consider dressing the other in a complementary solid color. Or, if you're both in solids, opposite colors should do the trick! Anything that's not black or white will look great with pretty much any background.​​​​​​​​

We love how The Honeycomb has become a place of lo We love how The Honeycomb has become a place of love and beauty. It's such an iconic spot that we're always excited to see how the location is used! As this hidden gem becomes less hidden, we have some helpful tips to help you out. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
1. Its real name is Peoples Gas Education Pavilion, located inside Lincoln Park Zoo. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
2. While there's no entrance fee to the park, you will need to pay a permit fee. ($125 per session) ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
3. Weekends are hard to book, especially in the spring, summer, and fall. You will have a better chance of booking a time during the weekday or winter. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Do you plan on having your wedding or engagement session at The Honeycomb? ​​​​​​​​

Need help picking out the best wedding suit? Here Need help picking out the best wedding suit? Here are four tips to help you pick out the best one for you.

Choosing a Wedding Suit Color: When you look for suit colors, there are a few things to keep in mind: the wedding theme, the season, the availability, and the variations between you and the wedding party. 

Fit Matters: The key to pulling off a killer suit is the fit; this means that it’s important to wear a suit that complements your body shape. Get your suit tailored! 

Accessorize Your Look: Accessories can be just as important as the suit when injecting some personality into an outfit, so take time to find the perfect additions and ensure they match your suit. 

Show off your personality: Contrary to popular belief; weddings are about making your own rules and infusing your personality into as many aspects of your day as possible. Don’t be afraid to go against the grain with unexpected textures, patterns, colors, silhouettes, or styles.
