Naperville Family Photographer | Extended Family

I would say 60% of my clients come from Naperville, another 20% from the other western suburbs like Oak Brook and Hinsdale.  Then that last 10% is mostly made up of people in downtown Chicago, but I also get one or two clients per year who live out of state and are coming to Naperville to visit family and want a Naperville family photographer to take extended family pictures while they are in town.  Such was the case with this wonderful family.  The woman who found and hired me actually lives in Florida!  But they were coming into town to visit her brother and his family and wanted to get the whole group together.

We lucked out with some gorgeous weather on our morning together.  Though being from Florida, they thought it was a little chilly.  Let’s start with the two who are responsible for this lovely family.  I’ve got to say, the grandmother was such a sweetheart!

 

And here’s the whole group, plus a great looking Golden Retriever who wasn’t the biggest fan of my light.

 

Then we had the breakout of the families.  Getting this teenage boy to smile was quite the feat!  Seriously, why do some kids just refuse to smile? He had a great smile!

 

Then we have this sweet family (and the one responsible for hiring me) with their cute little 15 month old daughter.

 

We also did individual pictures of the kids.  I love this one of this sweetie.  Can you see how long her lashes are?!

 

Getting this teen away from the audience of his family made him more relaxed.  He was a great sport as he endured my bad jokes as I tried to get him to smile.

 

I think the dog wins for most photogenic in this image, though it was a tough call with this good looking bunch!
