Angad Arts Hotel Engagement Photos // elle & sam

My oh my am I unbelievably excited to share some of the photos from Elle & Sam’s engagement session at the Angad Arts Hotel & World’s Fair Pavilion in Forest Park!

I’ve known these two for some time now, so I was so honored when they reached out about engagement photos! I was on the dance team with Elle in high school, & Sam is one of my brother’s close friends. So that being said, I loved catching up with them and hearing about their school & careers and what they’ve been up to recently.

When we first began planning their session, Elle told me they wanted a sophisticated look with an Italian villa vibe (can you say DREAM?!). I’m so grateful they trusted me to bring their amazing vision to life with these images. Of course, the Angad Arts Hotel rooftop & rooftop bar was the perfect space to create. I also loved how the arches at the World’s Fair Pavilion brought out that Italian villa feel they imagined. This shoot allowed me to get extra creative with style & posing, which is always such a blessing. It pushed me a little bit outside my normal comfort zone and the results were so incredible. I even brought out my flash for a few of the photos at World’s Fair Pavilion to catch a little more of that glam vibe & I’m a little obsessed.

Overall, these two, their outfits (Elle can you be my personal stylist..?), and these locations made for the most incredible session. Enjoy this big peek into the evening!!
