Oh gosh am I excited to share these pictures with everyone today! Jacob and Heather are so dear to my heart and I love their engagement pictures!
I first met these two last year when I was apart of their surprise proposal! From there they have been just a huge blessing to me. Heather is one of the sweetest people you will ever meet. Every time I get to hang with her she makes me feel so loved and she just lights up every room with her excitement for life. I am so grateful for photography bringing her into my life! These two also promote the heck out of my business which I am so so grateful for! They drove up to Elgin last week for their engagement session and we had so much fun. Heather is a rustic barn girl so we found the perfect location at an abandoned farm. It was one of those sessions I didn’t want to end and I was sad to say goodbye to them. I am so excited to be apart of their wedding next year because I know it will not only have amazing details but it will be such a joyous day all around. So this is a huge blog post but I couldn’t narrow it down! And make sure you look at the end for a special video

My good friend Patrick is starting out in videography and came along to film their engagement session. This video had us in tears during the shoot and watching the finished version! It is so good! I am a proud friend and had to share!

Right when I met these two, I loved them. They welcomed me into their lives like I was an old friend. I love having clients that are excited about me doing their photos. Christy told me again and again how she wouldn’t want anyone else to do their engagement and wedding photos.Woah! Huge compliment!! I felt so lovedI drove down to where they live in Moline, Illinois to do their engagement photos and we had a blast. They are such naturals in front of the camera and so comfortable around each other. Some couples have the natural ability to pose without me saying anything. When people are this in love, it shows. And I love it!

Amanda and Jake are a couple that is close to my heart. I went to high school with Jake and first met Amanda earlier this year when I shot their surprise proposal! Since then I have had the joy of getting to know her and shel is one of the sweetest, most genuine people ever! I am so glad to call them friends now and get to be apart of their Michigan wedding next month! We started their engagement session in downtown Geneva which is full of fun places to shoot! Then we headed to Fabayan Park to catch some pictures as the sun went down. I love watching couples interact when I get to hang out with them. Every couple is different and the romantic in me gets giddy.These two were so sweet together in their shoot. They laugh so much together and you can tell by their faces that they adore each other. I also heard Jake whisper a few I love you’s out of the blue and I just melted! So enjoy a few (ok many) of my favorites from the day!

Yesterday was a big day for me and the release of my new promo video! If you haven’t seen it check it out: http://sabrinanohlingphotography.com/#/aboutmain/
For the video my best friend and her boyfriend modeled for me and I shot some of my favorite images of them ever! The light was perfect and we shot under the prettiest willow tree! And of course these two just make my job easy. They also make my heart happy seeing them so in love
