Mother's Day Spring Mini Sessions- Chicago Family Portraits

Mother's Day is on the horizon and what better way to celebrate than with a short and sweet photo session! In honor of all the amazing, caring, hard-working moms (and moms-to-be!) I am having a Mother's Day portrait event on Sunday, May 10th.

Moms and Dads are welcome! Don't have kids? This is a great opportunity to grab your own mom, grandma, or siblings and create a perfect portrait and Mother's Day gift.

Sessions will include:

25 minute shoot

10 digital images

Access to online proofing gallery

Photo Print Release

First session begins at 3:30 and the last one will finish up at sunset. The outdoor location will be determined closer to the session date, but be certain there will be a gorgeous spring-time backdrop!

These will go fast, so make sure to book early :-)  Can't wait to see my past clients and some new faces as well!

Fall Mini Sessions - Chicago Family Portrait Photographer

I am finally feeling caught up after a few months of craziness! I have severely neglected this poor blog, but am back to *hopefully* regularly scheduled posts. Busy photography season was in full swing when I hosted my fall mini sessions back in the end of October. The weather was absolutely perfect that weekend and I really lucked out with all of these wonderful, happy families. This was my first year of doing mini sessions and I LOVED it! Getting to see so many past and new clients in two days was so fun, and with back to back sessions, the time just flew by.

With spring around the corner (maybe just wishful thinking here) I am considering a spring mini session. Likely dates would be Mother's Day weekend- May 9th-10th. Feel free to comment on this post if you think you would be interested! Hopefully we will have some lovely spring flowers blooming by then :-) 

I hope you enjoy these mini session images, I know I enjoyed taking them!

Baby Julia- Chicago Six Month Photo Session

I have yet to meet a difficult 6-month old, and Miss Julia was just a smiley, adorable dream. I met this little lady when she was just a week old and it was such a pleasure to see this family again! We met at the lovely Women's Garden in the South Loop and besides the loud and distracting lawn mowers, it was the perfect photo shoot location. I am so excited to see how she grows in the coming months and I will be seeing her again for her first birthday photo shoot, can't wait!

Newman Family- Chicago Portrait Photographer

I knew that this session would be a lot of fun and nonstop action. Becky contacted me shortly after she gave birth to her twins, and after a stay in the NICU for one little guy, we were able to schedule a big family session in her home. The whole family was able to attend (mom, dad, 3 kiddos, and both sets of grandparents!) It was great seeing how the whole family interacted with each other, and it is clear that these 3 grandkids are so loved!

Mya- Chicago Children's Photographer

This was a highly anticipated session by not only me, but my 7-year old niece as well. Granted, our excitement was for different reasons; I had been wanting do to a session with her for ages and she had been wanting some new Pokemon cards... win win. I flew to my sister's house in VA and new that I wanted to do this session in Colonial Williamsburg. I don't often have the chance to photograph clients in this type of setting and had to take advantage of the gorgeous homes, rustic barns, and animals grazing. My niece was her usual crazy, awesome self and was so great at listening to my direction. There was also plenty of time spent chasing squirrels and collecting pebbles, and I know that I will look back on these photos years from now and fondly remember this wonderful day. Love you to pieces, Mya Papaya!
