Boyhood | Naperville Photographer, Hinsdale photographer

My how the babies change from when I photograph them as newborns!  This little guy is now 7 months old, and I didn’t even recognize him.  We decided to do a woodsy session, and he had a blast.  It was his first time really out in nature, and he loved it.  He played in the dirt and grass and didn’t want to stop.

It was just a wonderful session.  Already looking forward to seeing him again when he turns one.

Morgan | Naperville Chicago newborn photograher, Hinsdale newborn photographer

It was a pleasant surprise when I received a call from this client.  I had photographed their boy when he was about three months old…three years ago.  But this time she wanted me to photograph her newborn daughter, Morgan.  Morgan was older than most of my newborns, already three weeks of age. She was absolutely beautiful.  But being older, she didn’t want to sleep, and mom really wanted those curled up images.  So after taking a few pictures, we waited her out, fed her, rocked her, and upped the heat. An hour and a half later, we were golden and cranked through the session.

I was excited to try out this new purple bonnet – LOVE IT!  The headbands are all from Wren & Ribbon.

Belly Bump | Chicago maternity photographer, Naperville maternity photographer

We were originally going to do a beach maternity session out on Lake Michigan, but it was bad weather on the day of the session, so we did studio, instead. She only has another 4 weeks to go before meeting her son, and I can’t wait.  It was a fun session for me because we went with a different feel than most of my maternity sessions.  It was fun, and she looks beautiful – and the best part – she actually smiled (she usually just does a closed mouth smile)! LOL

Miss Personality | Chicago Naperville Baby Photographer, Naperville Photographer

I photographed this little diva’s baptism last month, and now they came in for formal portraits of little Miss Lauren.  She was 10 months old here and on the go.  She is such a smiler and absolutely adorable but I loved the variety of expressions she has.  I wish I could have captured the cutest thing she does, but it would require video.  When being held and getting excited, she attacks the one holding her – giving a huge bear hug.  It is so cute.

And thanks to Lauren’s parents for making the trek out from the city!

Corporate Head Shots | Naperville Photographer, Wheaton Photographer

I’ve been busy and actually was asked not to share some sessions, unfortunately. Boo!  So I thought I would share some recent corporate headshots.  Whether you need individual head shots or even group ones, I’m able to meet those needs.  These were all for traditional corporate looks.

Great head shots – unique and NOT stuffy like the chain studios!
