{Chicago Children and Family Photography}: The M's

November 21, 2010

I must say this. The families I’ve had the opportunity to photograph thus far have been awesome. The majority of my sessions have been cold and breezy, but yet they are just excited to get photographs taken so they endure through the cold. The M’s were no different.

Last Sunday, after we had to reschedule our session from the day before due to rain, we were able to meet up at Mills Park in Oak Park. What a nice (and gorgeous may I add) couple, and what a beautiful baby girl they have! Lilah was totally into the picture taking, she had plenty of smiles to offer and was super engaging with the camera. I definitely got lucky with this one. And I’m happy to declare that it’s one of my favorite sessions yet.

I think you’ll see why.

Shoots like these remind me of why I love what I’m doing. Just looking at the finished product puts a smile on my face.

{Chicago Children and Family Photography}: The S Family

November 20, 2010

The bluest eyes. That’s what I think about when I think back to my shoot with the S Family two weeks ago. Their little girl had the bluest eyes I have ever seen and a smile and adorable outfit to top it off.

Thanks to the S family for allowing me the opportunity to photograph your family!

{Chicago Family Photography}: The K's

November 15, 2010

The weather in Chicago has been quite wacky I must say. It’s been in the 60s one day, and the next day the highs are in the 40s. It has definitely made it a bit of a challenge to photograph families without looking like they are freezing (which they are a lot of the time). But we make it work.

Last Saturday was one of those days. The K’s met up with  me at Caldwell Woods to do a quick family session.  The wind was blowing, jackets were needed, but they hung in there. Megan and Max were full of energy, which was a good thing since a bit of running around warmed them up. I really enjoyed working with this family, and hope to do so again in the future.

Here are a couple from the session that I love.

Thanks to the K’s for the opportunity to photograph your family and for sticking through it even though the weather was quite chilly!

{Chicago Couples Photography}: The W's

November 7, 2010

I was thrilled a few weeks back when Michele contacted me about doing a session with her and her husband to celebrate their 2nd wedding anniversary. I wish more couples out there were like her and had the same idea. Photography opportunities don’t have to be saved for engagements, weddings, or when kids are in the picture!

Needless to say, it was a great change of pace for me. Up until this session I had been doing children and/or family sessions.  Michele even brought her sister Cara along to jump in on a few pictures. We met at Promontory Park in the Hyde Park neighborhood on a chilly Saturday morning. Many of the leaves had fallen, but several trees were at their peak. The three of them were awesome to work with and were up for whatever I had in mind. I had a great time photographing them and hope to do more sessions like theirs in the future. I left feeling so excited about what I had captured and hope you can see why below.

Thanks so much to the W’s and Cara for a great session! You all were such a pleasure to work with!

{Chicago Children and Family Photography}: The A Family

November 4, 2010

This past weekend, I had the opportunity to photograph the A family at Promontory Point in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Chicago. I discovered this great park the weekend before while photographing a high school friend and her family. Not only is this a spot with an awesome building and beautiful trees showing the fall colors, but it’s also on Lake Michigan with an awesome view of the city.

Erin, her husband Doug, adorable daughter Kathleen, and fun-loving dog were troopers and joined me bright and early on Saturday morning, even though the temperatures were quite chilly to say the least. Our session the weekend before had to be rescheduled due to rain, so I was happy that we could just get together. They were so kind and gracious, and I had so much fun photographing them.

Thanks so much to the A Family for the opportunity to photography your beautiful family. It was a great experience for me, and I hope you enjoyed it as well!
