Chicago Model Photographer | AJ

I love the comp card sessions - they are a blast!

This guy was game on the minute he walked in, and we were off!

C, these are for you!

 

 

 

 

GO HAWKS!

 

Chicago Photographer | The Best. Hat. EVER.

Ok, so I'm a bit of a hat addict. A bit of a scarf monger too. And I seem to have a bit of an issue with old chairs as well...

All that aside, this little baby showed up today and it was all I could do to wait until I had a moment to throw it onto a willing head.

So I thought I'd share the results with you :-)

Voila - un chapeau magnifique!

And the girl ain't bad either :-)

Enjoy!

 

 

 

 

 

Chicago Child Photographer | Holiday!

Yep, it's that time again. Plaids, red ribbons, patent leather shoes...

Holiday pictures!

Here's a quick Sneak Peek for K and B who brought their two little ones to me for the first time last year, and who I was so pleased to see again. It never ceases to amaze me how much these little suckers grow in a few short months. Amazing.

Anyway, enough blather :-)

 K, here is your Sneak Peek.

Enjoy!

 

I got this FAB jacket the day before the shoot and was DYING to use it. Isn't is awesome?

 

 

 

And Dad, this one's for YOU!

 

Happy First Birthday, P!!!!!!!

Chicago Baby Photographer | One!

I was so pleased to see baby K for her one year celebration. She was one of my favourite sessions of 2009 and I was tickled to see her again!

T & K, thank you SO much. I love having you all over.

Here is your Sneak Peek.

Enjoy!

 

 

 

 

Chicago Children's Photographer | For J.

Love it when kids like this come to the studio. Fun, well mannered and simply great to work with.

So of course, when they requested the famous tire swing, who was I to refuse?!

J, here is your Sneak Peek.

Enjoy!

 

 

 

 

 

Chicago Child Photography | Let's Play!

Ok, it's the busy season. So does that mean it's a little nutty around here?

Is the sky blue? 

Is water wet? 

Does a wild bear...well, you get the point.

So yes, nutty it has been and nutty it continues to be. That being said, it is time to catch up on a few Sneak Peeks!

I went to visit the W family an had a wonderful time playing in their backyard. I got to climb on playsets, be Darth Vader and make angels in the grass. My kind of session.

E, here is your Sneak Peek. 

Enjoy!

 

Look!!! B smiled at me!!!!

 

And G stopped....for about 1.5 seconds :-)

 

 

 

Let's Play!

 

G - you had the BEST expressions.

 

Thanks so much for the fun, you guys! Truly, my job rocks.

Chicago Child Photography | For J.

I love doing sessions with the children of old friends, and this was no exception.

The kids were a hoot, the location rocked, and J...I loved seeing you.

And as you can tell by the sheer number of Peek images, we had a great session! 

You've been super patient, and here is your Sneak Peek.

ENJOY!!!

Chicago Child Photographer | Action!

That's what this session was all about..Action!

And TONS of it.

There was alot of running, but I think we managed to get some good stuff!

I especially like the family photograph...non traditional and fun.

M, here is your Sneak Peek.
