Meet Mandy, the talented makeup artist and owner of  Mandy Farmer – Makeup Artist and her new fiancé Tim. Here is part 1 of their proposal.

When Tim contacted me to share his plans for his secret marriage proposal to Mandy in Chicago, I was ecstatic! Dates were a little tough to come by in the timeframe but I knew I had to make any small space available in my schedule to capture this. And so, I did! My piece of the planning was to reach out to Mandy to plan a glamorous couple’s photoshoot by the Montrose Harbor at sunset, Tim would eagerly accept and the rest is history. Tim did a great job with planning every detail of the proposal, which included having both sets of out of town parents there. It was the perfect evening for their big moment at Lake Michigan. These two met on the water during a Royal Caribbean Cruise and so the location near the water was perfect. It was such a sweet moment to be part of it. I am so happy for my friends Mandy and Tim, they are just the perfect balance for each other. Here’s a look at all the happy!!
