A couple weekends ago we got meet up with AJ and Amber, whose wedding we'll be photographing here in a couple months, to take some engagement photos.  Both AJ and Amber are big Illini hockey fans so we started off the shoot at the Illinois Ice Arena to get some shots, we even got one with a custom game ticket made up for the wedding date (yep they definitely knew the right people at the ice arena)!  After the ice arena we headed for some fun locations we'd scouted in downtown Champaign, IL.  While there seemed to be a storm threatening off to the west the whole time we were downtown you couldn't tell and we ended up staying completely dry with the storms holding off until well after we were done with the photo shoot. Downtown Champaign is a great place for photos as it continues to change with new businesses and construction going on, and as well with the changing of seasons.  Every time we go down there we find more and more fun places to take photos (check out the ones withe Ivy backdrop down below).It was great getting to see AJ and Amber, and photographing them for their engagement, check out some of our favorites from the shoot below!This work by JD Maloney is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Unported License.
