Naperville Photographer, Chicago Special Needs Photographer
I love it when families that I have met during our special needs mini sessions come back for a full session! I hadn’t seen this family in a couple years, but I still definitely remembered them. The oldest brother is non-verbal with autism. His mom and I both knew we would have to go quickly,…

I had this big guy in to the studio recently for his six month pictures. I had the pleasure of also doing his newborn session. I always love seeing how dramatically babies change between the newborn and six month session. Then again by one year. I couldn’t recognize him at all – he’s so big! …
