Ami + Amar’s Lakeside Engagement Session

This is the engagement session I was referring to when I wrote the above comment.  Ami and Amar were so incredibly fun to photography.  They were playful, affectionate, and laid back.  We met on the steps of the Field Museum on a fogging Chicago afternoon.  The laughter started as soon as we greeted each other and pretty much didn’t stop.  When I asked them about their first date, Ami explained they didn’t have an “official” one until they’d been together for a year.  In fact, their “first date” was when Amar proposed.  He called Ami up earlier in the week and asked if she’d go out with him “Saturday night.” He brought her to the Field Museum, where he led her into the diamond exhibit.  Guess what Ami found in one of the display cases?  Amar, you are a clever, clever man.  Way to make your “first date” unforgettable.
