Siblings | Naperville – Oak Brook Children’s Photographer

I had a great time meeting this brother and sister in Oak Brook.  The family loves photography and has pictures of the children and parents all over the house.  I love it when clients love photography!  They wanted natural pictures of their children being themselves, as opposed to a more formal studio appearance.

Adam was hilarious and had his stuffed kittens in on the shoot – they were both in front and behind the camera as my helpers.  His older sister, Sophia, entertained me with her hip hop dance routine.  Have I mentioned how fun my job is lately?

They were your typical siblings – younger brother annoying his older sister who in turn annoys the younger brother.  The below picture cracks me up because it is not posed and says so much.

So to work it all out we did what always works – PILLOW FIGHT!

Spring Deals are here! | Chicago – Naperville children’s photographer

It is time to celebrate those families with special needs children.  As Chicago’s premier special needs photographer, this is my way of helping these amazing families have pictures of their children that are beautiful pieces of art.

Snow Princess | Naperville – Chicago Child Photographer

After almost a month of being sick, I was finally able to get out and shoot again.  There are a few reasons I am happy to share this session with everyone.  First off, she is just gorgeous.  This 11 year old is right at that age where she is starting to leave childhood behind.  I’m thrilled that I got to capture her in this time.  Secondly, this goes perfectly with my current FaceBook contest for a free snow session.  Most people want outdoor portrait sessions done in the summer and fall around here, but don’t discount winter in Chicago.  Turning the landscape into muted tones can create for beautiful portraits.  Sessions are just quicker. ;)  And snow can make for great family lifestyle sessions with everyone playing in the snow.

But back to Miss Annie here.  Isn’t she a heartbreaker?

Now, while she looks all glamorous, Annie is just a normal kid who froze for a few minutes but never complained.

She doesn’t smile with her teeth and would cover up her mouth when she laughed.  When I showed her this one, she hated it because she is so self-conscious about her smile.  I told her to trust me, her mom would love it.

My first magazine cover publication | Naperville – Chicago child photographer

I’ve been waiting for the electronic file in order to share this with you.  I found out in November that one of my images was selected to be the cover for this issue of the international magazine, Autism File.  It is my first magazine cover, so I’m very excited.  Hopefully, it is only the first of many!

Cuddly Chaos | LaGrange Baby and Child Photographer

Well, the dynamic duo turned one!  But we always photograph the entire family when we get together, and this time, three year old, Sarsha was being a wonderful model for me.  So I had to take advantage, as last time she didn’t want any of it.  LOL  The twins were typical one year olds – mobile and could not be contained.  But being so cute certainly makes up for the challenge.

But what about the birthday twins, you ask?  Well, they were napping until this point, but then it was time for some cuddly chaos.

We wanted the babies to sit next to each other in these chairs, but anytime we brought the boy by the girl, she would cry. LOL.  But doesn’t she look like she is saying, “where’s my brother?  I’ve got a seat for him.”

But he was much happier on his own.
