CHICAGO WINTER ENGAGEMENT SESSION: MELISSA MARIE PHOTOGRAPHY: TONY + CHRISTINA

There's a little magic that happens during engagement sessions in the city around the holidays. Ornate buildings are tied up with bows. City lights intermixed with the twinkle of tree lights. The golden doors shine like timeless brass bells. There's a nostalgia of memories that have yet to been made. A perfect scene for a winter city engagement. (Ok... Perfect woulda been maybe 10-15 degrees warmer) (: I've never seen a Hallmark Christmas movie but I feel like we were in one for the day.

Want a little tip for winter photos? Buy a box of Little Hottie hand warmers from Costco. (It's the cheapest there).l Put those suckers all over. No one will see them under all your layers, but you'll feel them!

Tony & Christina, thanks for igniting some holiday sparks during your engagement pics! Absolutely loved capturing you guys! Can't wait for the wedding!!
