{Chicago Family and Children Photography}: The F Family

Holy fun! That’s how I can describe my morning with the F family who met up with me in late August in Arlington Heights for an early morning shoot around North School Park. I was so excited to photograph their family that morning because it would be my first chance to use my new 85mm lens. And I fell in love with it. Delia and Jonas were the PERFECT kiddos for the lens, and I am so excited to share just a couple of my favorites (there were many, many, many favorites from this shoot).

Thanks again F Family for a morning of fun. I hope you’ll cherish these photos for years to come:-).

{Chicago Children Photography}: Sam is 2!

You may recognize this adorable face. I did an indoor shoot with Sam back in February, and was thrilled when her mom contacted me to take her 2 year old pictures in June. We met at a park in Elmhurst and got some great shots! Sam was full of smiles that day, which makes my job even easier and a whole lot of fun!

Thanks to Sam and her parents for the opportunity to photograph that adorable face again. I hope to do so again soon!

 

{Chicago Children Photography}: Kathleen

Kathleen’s mom contacted me a couple months ago about photographing Kathleen for her 2 year old photos. After a rough spring of weather and some unforeseen scheduling changes, we were finally able to get together in early June. I think it worked out for the best! We had an absolutely gorgeous morning at Promontory Point, which was a stark contrast to the very chilly session I did with their family in the fall.

Kathleen was a doll and was so easy easy to photograph! Enjoy a few of my favorites…

Thanks again to the A family for the opportunity to photograph little miss Kathleen. Can’t wait for the arrival of the new little one!

{Chicago Children Photography}: Sam

Just look at this adorable little girl! A couple weeks ago, Sam and her parents met up with me at the Wilder Park Conservatory in Elmhurst to photograph Sam in a nice warm setting! This conservatory was a great spot, and I plan to use it again in the future. It was small enough to contain an energetic toddler who loved running around. I loved her dress and was happy with how well it vibed with the colors of the botanical garden. She was a cheerful little girl, which made my job even easier!

{Chicago Baby Photography}: Mason

I love a challenge. And what I’ve found in the past few months is that young children provide quite the challenge to photograph. With that said, I can confidently say that these challenging sessions with wee ones are also some of the most enjoyable sessions I do.

My session with nine month old baby Mason was no different. He was such a sweet little boy, and while his crawling here, there, and everywhere made for a challenge, he did provide me with some great candid moments and some cute smiles too.

I always walk away from sessions grateful that people are willing to give me the opportunity to photograph them and/or their children. Thanks so much to Sarah and Kurt for entrusting me with capturing Mason at such an adorable time in his life!
