Brianna | Chicago Children's Photographer

This is not a typical update, as this was not a typical session. Brianna’s mom won my totally free session with the Naperville Magazine raffle, but she has deferred it until fall, but I wanted to try something and knew her daughter, Brianna, would be a perfect subject.  So this was just a little mini…

Beautiful Family | Chicago Children's Photographer

Beautiful family portraits.  Something we all want, but it seems to be like the Fountain of Youth – something we’ve all heard of, something we want, but something we never actually get.  At least that is my own, personal experience.  I really need to hire a photographer to get a beautiful picture of my family…

All Boy | Chicago Children's Photographer

This is the first family who has traveled to me in order to have a session with me.  I was humbled.  Found me on Facebook and became fans.  They traveled all the way from Norway!!  That’s right…well…sort of.  They traveled from Norway, Michigan in the UP. 😉  But still, it was a six hour drive,…

The Olympian | Chicago Childrens Photographer

David is my last model for the Celebrate Differences special needs calendar.  I was a little star struck when I met David to photograph him.  He’s the first Olympian I’ve ever met, after all.  With a pile of gold and bronze metals from the past two Special Olympics for horseback riding,  I was quite impressed. …

Dalton | Chicago Special Needs Photographer

I had been trying several times to get together with Dalton, but his mom and I always seemed to have scheduling conflicts.  On this day, it almost got canceled yet again due to all the rain we’ve been getting.  As I pulled into the parking lot, it started sprinkling.  We sat under a gazebo while…
