Portraits
All the quirks and cuteness of you and yours!
D Family Photo Session | St. Charles, IL
I met up with this sweet trio in St. Charles on a beautifully sunny August morning for their family portraits. While it was the first time I worked with the three of them together, you may recognize little Louie from his 1st birthday session earlier this year. If you...
Julia’s newborn session | Geneva, IL
I met sweet little Julia at a mere five days young. Momma wanted a neutral and natural look, so we kept the color palette soft and delicate. Big sis was still warming up to her new role, but did a great job of showing her affection for her new best friend. Take a...
Norah’s 1st birthday photo session | St. Charles, IL
Here are my favorites from Norah's 1st birthday studio session in St. Charles. She is such a happy little girl and it completely shows. You may recognize the soft handmade pink blanket from her newborn session nearly a year ago. Her momma and I decided to...
Baby R Maternity | Plainfield, IN
It was still pretty cold outside, but we decided to head to a local park for these maternity photos. The park was a perfect location, because it's one they'll frequent with baby in the future. We wandered along the path, looked out along the creek, and laughed just...
Louie’s 1st birthday photo session | Elmhurst, IL
I met adorable little Louie for his 1st birthday photos in the studio. Unfortunately, February in the Chicago suburbs doesn't often lend itself to happy outdoor portraits with a one year-old! So naturally, we celebrated the big O-N-E with cupcakes and balloons...
D Family at the Farm | St. Charles, IL
This was my third time working with this crew, and it is never anything less than hysterical! We ran up and down some paths, watched Dad strike a model pose against a tree, admired the animals, and even got a quick lesson in anatomy. (I'll leave you guessing as to...
S Family Sunwashed at Sunset | St. Charles, IL
Of course, there is a way to create magic through the lens (and let's admit it - Photoshop!) when Mother Nature deals us a drab, cloudy day. But then there are the late October evenings that are just MAGICAL. Like this one. We totally lucked out, and wound up with...
S Kiddos & The Crush | St. Charles, IL
This one started out pretty funny. My 10 year-old son and their eldest daughter are classmates. While I knew that my son had a crush on her, I did not know that within him lies a little bit of sweet young chivalry. When we all met up and I was introduced to her dad,...
Loretta’s First Photo Shoot | Chicago, IL
I met sweet Loretta last month at her home in Chicago. Newborns are so incredibly precious, and I always consider it an honor to be invited to your home to photograph your brand new baby. I absolutely love incorporating a few of your own trinkets in a session, and...
