Best of Naperville Winner – Best Photographer 2015
Last night, I attended the 2015 Best of Naperville awards through Naperville Magazine at Hotel Arista. With a packed room full of Naperville’s best and brightest, it was like attending a swanky wedding for a coworker – one where it is a big wedding and you don’t really know many people. 😉 People are always…

This little three year old has some of the best hair! Seriously, with those golden Shirley Temple curls and big brown eyes, she is just gorgeous. She’s also full of ham and cheese. LOL Just ask her to smile and laugh, and she immediately does so. She’s already perfected the art of fake smiling –…

The editing involved in large family pictures is significant with all…

This little man just turned one year old. I met him at his newborn session, and man has he grown and changed! He is just a little peanut now, but with a very big smile. He is not walking yet, but I think he may be the fastest crawler I’ve ever seen. Seriously, we would…

With our horrible summer weather, getting pictures done has been a little trying. I was scheduled to take this family’s portraits at their home, hoping to be outside in their beautiful backyard. On this day, however, it was drizzling on and off, very dark, and super muggy and humid. We opted to stay inside their…

Just a post to celebrate some great dads and their kids. I had some Father’s Day mini-sessions with a few families. Unfortunately, one did not agree to letting me share his handsome mug on the Internet. But here are some from that day. I love celebrating the love of a good dad. …
