Special Needs Mini-Sessions (part II) | Naperville special needs photographer
Here is the second half of my April 13th special needs mini-sessions. It was certainly a busy day! This family was very fun. The older brother has autism. And the younger brother was just a ham. 🙂 These next brothers were a whole new level of energy. Both have atypical autism with…

I’m busy editing away on my first day of special needs mini-sessions and wanted to share some. It was a wonderful day to get to photograph so many special needs families. By waiving my session fee and minimum order requirement, I was able to offer something to families who may not normally be able to…
Read MoreLittle Sister | Naperville newborn photographer, Downers Grove newborn photographer
After having three gorgeous boys, this family was just blessed with a daughter. I don’t think I’ve seen such beautiful children. This baby girl was just beautiful at only 6 days old. It’s a good thing she has three big brothers – they are going to be needed to keep the boys at bay when…
Read MoreCelebration | Naperville Family Photographer, Hinsdale Family Photographer
This extended family of four generations were getting together in celebration of this little guy’s first birthday. This is also the very first time the mom and dad have had professional pictures done of their son. It was late in the day and rain was threatening, but we managed to get some great family pictures…
Read MoreNewborn Twins | Chicago Baby photographer, Wheaton Baby Photographer
These sweet twin sisters were already 5 weeks old, but they were born 5 weeks early. I’m amazed at how different they look, even though they are twins, but they both have beautiful blue eyes. One is tall and thin, the other short and round. Twin sessions, while beautiful, can be tough. For the life…

When Gracie’s dad contacted me to photograph his 6 year old daughter as a surprise for his wife, I asked him to tell me a bit about her, so that I could think about what I wanted to do. He proceeded to tell me that she was the light of their lives, the sweetest girl,…
Read More6 Month Princess | Naperville Chicago Baby Photographer, Plainfield Baby Photographer
This little 6 month old was so beautiful. Just a petite, little thing full of smiles. I loved how when she was really excited, she would crinkle up her nose and show off her two teeth. We couldn’t have asked for a better baby, as she was happy as could be. Her grandfather was also…
Read MoreBlack & White | Naperville Family Photographer, Hinsdale Family Photographer
This was a fun and different session. I always enjoy family sessions because I truly believe getting family portraits is important, and I love trying to get the real relationship captured. This time it was a mom and her two kids. One is graduating college soon, the other is a sophomore in college. Sometimes parents…

This guy was only 6 days old, but almost 10 lbs! He was a peaceful, little guy, though he did like to pee on things. LOL Being located in downtown Naperville really has its perks. Since this baby had a big sister who’s a toddler, it was very easy for her daddy to take her…
