Mike and I had heard a lot about the Morton Arboretum but had never been before. (FYI clients: while it’s a fun place to explore with your families, they unfortunately charge a heafty permit fee to take professional photos there.) So, after my sessions wrapped last Sunday, Mike and I decided to enjoy the amazing Summer-like Fall weather and take Ellie to explore the foliage. Getting there was a bit intense…cars were backed up for more than a mile, all trying to get into the park. Aparently everyone had the same idea! But once inside, we really enjoyed hiking around the beautiful space. It was very peaceful, beautiful during the golden hour, and it was incredible to watch Eloise, wide-eyed and alert for our entire visit, taking it all in.
