Sunsets in the country fields of a small town have my whole heart! There’s something about the quiet nights (until the train rolls through) and fields that go on for days to catch the perfect sunset! This little town just south of Kankakee, IL gave us the perfect setting for Chad and Sammys engagement session.
When Sammy told me she wanted to incorporate their small town and this piece of land in the country for their engagement session, I was totally on board. I love when couples are in tune to their own story and want to showcase that. The simple life, that’s the life for me and I loved sharing that with these two. Just love, fun and the sun and that’s all I need for the perfect engagement session.
What I love about this small town story is that these two never knew each other even though they went to the same school. Chad and Sammy only met each other 4 years ago, which if you live in a small town, you know everyone typically knows one another in some way. Not these two. It was playing darts on Sundays at the local bar that finally brought them together.
5 more months and I get to hangout with these two again for their Wedding and we’ll hopefully be soaking up more of that country sun.
From Chad:
“I love her personality, her smile, and the happiness she gives me every day.”
From Sammy:
“Chad is such a funny, genuine, big hearted and giving person. He is so honest and loves with his entire heart.”
“Chad has stuck by my side and believed in me every step of the way while getting my nursing degree. I’m so blessed he’s mine.”
