Baby N | Naperville newborn photographer, Chicago special needs photographer
I was asked to do a newborn session at someone’s home in Oak Brook. Small world that I have another client in that exact neighborhood. lol I was asked to come to their home because their daughter is very special needs, and it would be easiest for me to come to them. Their daughter has…
Read MoreThree Under Three | Chicago baby photographer, Naperville baby photographer
Three kids under three. Wow. When the mom, cousin, grandmother strolled into the studio with a two-and-a-half year old, 12-month old, and newborn, I knew it would be chaos. And it was. LOL I can’t imagine how the parents are surviving, but at least they get to see these adorable faces looking back at them. …

When this teenager first stepped out of the car with her mom, I smiled. I think she just has that effect on people. She is just naturally sweet. As we walked from point to point, she kept smiling. Even when I wanted a tough, attitude-ridden look from her, she just couldn’t do it. I laughed…
Read MoreArrival | Chicago newborn baby photographer, Naperville newborn photographer
I had been waiting since doing the couple’s maternity pictures for this little guy’s arrival. At two weeks old, he is already so big and alert. He would look right at me when he was awake. It took us several attempts to get him to want to be on his belly without peeing – LOL…

When I first received the call about little Riya here, I was told she was already six weeks old, but they wanted newborn pictures. I promised to do my best but warned them that it may be tough. When the mom first arrived, we tried for 2.5 hours, but she was just not having it. …
Read More7 Days | Chicago newborn photographer, Naperville newborn photographer
Seven days old. This perfect little newborn guy was wonderful for me. I had done their maternity pictures only a few weeks ago and never heard back from them on those pictures, which I thought was odd. And sure enough, I get a call the day after he arrived that they were in the hospital…
Read MoreBrodie | Naperville photographer, Naperville children's photographer
Well, twice a year I am faced with nightmare-inducing, sweaty palmed, spine chilling sessions – my own kids. Yes, taking pictures of my own children is by far the hardest I ever have to work, and easily the most frustrating sessions. Just as kids act better for teachers than they do their parents, I think…
Read MoreSeven | Naperville Photographer, Wheaton Photographer
I have a seven year old, I know the age well. But I was not prepared for the difference between photographing a 7 yr old boy versus girl. LOL Being a child photographer, I really like to capture a child’s true essence, not necessarily the posed smile. But do you know what happens when you…
