I photographed the beautiful Guzman extended family in Oak Brook this past fall, it wasn't a terribly cold day but it was cold enough. Thankfully teens seem to not feel any of it ever. It's quite funny. I will be brutally honest that showing up to a session full of Gen Z kids was intimidating [...]
On this cold dreary day in Oak Brook IL I photographed a superbly sweet and gorgeous family. They absolutely made my job feel so effortless. I am a firm believer that the location is secondary to connection , and I think this session proves that loudly. The Fall comes and goes so quickly that I [...]
This new decade has already proven that I am going to be completely challenged and pulled in all kinds of crazy directions. So to take a break from that I am going through old images and publishing, erasing, and moving forward. My amazing friend @KerlynVanGelder taught this amazing session for me in Portland and I [...]
These humans I tell you, they pack in so much beauty and kindness. I'm so honored that I continue to photograph them! The insanity of this session still blows me away. From the light and the cold, goodness the cold. We worked under pressure quickly to achive some pretty great images, If I don't say [...]
Natasha and her sweet little handsome boy were the third family in the commercial shoot for Dockatot. They were absolutely a joy to work with. This baby was so calm and absolutely in love with his mama. He followed her with his gaze in such a loving way. The whole shoot he was the sweetest. [...]
I can't believe we are nearing the middle of September. Back in July I took part in this incredible shoot for Dockatot. I only wish I still had little babies to put them in the cute products they have. The Corrigan Family was a part of Day one, I'll be blogging all of the incredible [...]
Strong like thunder he came. While I wasn't able to be present during his birth, I heard all about her birth plan for him. His mom had all the confidence it took to educate herself and have the birth she always wanted. At home surrounded by light and love. She is definitely full of tenacity. [...]
Flabbergasted by her beauty. Sometimes in this line of work you get meet some truly calm and powerful souls. The way in which she told me her birth plan was amazing, full of hope and steadiness. Nothing could rock her. For her session we headed to the beach, probably the only available location due to [...]
Oh my heart! It is such a joy to do this job. It's crazy to think that I captured that sweet child's newborn photos. Now she's this rambunctious big kid who just made every image glow with her sweet soul. I was beyond thrilled when Angelina reached out to capture them in their new home [...]
We had an amazing time in River Forest IL, the weather was perfect for a stunning golden light family session
