Art Institute of Chicago

We shot early to avoid crowds and cars, but some Photoshop magic was used here. I'd love to shoot at night with the marquee lights too!
Chicago Theatre

A spacious spot, perfect for a clear shot any time of day! Donโt forget to check out the Wrigley Building next door!
Chicago Riverwalk

We shot here on a Monday when the shop was closed to avoid being "those people," but if you visit while it's open, be sure to check it out! Such a cute spot!

We found the least crowded spot on the street, but the entire stretch is lined with stunning city buildings!

We ended up spending more time here than planned because we fell in love with the spot - such a cool experience in Chicago!

We missed this spot on our last trip, but hope to visit next time!
