Pottery Barn Kids | Oakbrook Child Photography

I had the pleasure recently of doing a set of minisessions at the Pottery Barn Kids store in Oakbrook. Not only did I have lovely surroundings to work in, but the children were GORGEOUS!

Check them out for yourself - lots of big gorgeous eyes here.

I couldn't fit everyone on one post, so I'll try and do a second tomorrow.

Have a great night, and ENJOY!!!

Red21 Rocks!!!!

I had the pleasure of doing minisessions at my favourite boys' boutique last week, Red21. You know much I LOVE their clothes, and the service there is truly awesome. The fabulous Bob G had a bunch of wonderful ladies and their families lined up for me, and we had some fun, MP style! We even got some..gasp..GIRLS!

The only problem with shooting at Red21...I always shop too. Their spring line is awesome...I particularly love the new rock n roll line. Give Bob a call to see what's new at 630-655-9163, or check 'em out online at www.red21boys.com/hinsdale.aspx.

Hey! How do I get in on these great minis you ask? Well, you have to come on in to Red21 to be a part of the fun. If you purchase $100 of their fabu fashions, you qualify for a complimentary Merrifield Photography minisession. The next date is April 18th, so get on in there!

Here are some sneak peeks from the sessions, with more to come in a few days.

As always, enjoy!!!!

More Fun with Janie and Jack | Orland Park Children's Photography

As promised, here are some more images from my time with the wonderful kids of Janie and Jack!

Making memories with Janie and Jack | Orland Park Baby and Child Photography

Holy Cow! What a week! I was contracted to do several days of special minisessions at the Janie and Jack in Orland Park last week, and I am just recovering now!

It was busy, crazy and loads of fun.

I met more people, made more monkey noises and sang more rounds of "The Wheels on the Bus" than I have ever done before. And I had a great time.

I am now in the middle of editing these sessions, but as promised, wanted to share some with you. I will put a second installment up tomorrow night, so if you are enjoying these, come on back!

Without further ado, some of the wonderful children of Orland Park!

My Favourite Angel | Chicago Baby Photography

As you may know, I just finished (ok, not just, a couple of weeks ago, you got me) my Angels Are Everywhere Limited Edition Sessions. And I was lucky enough that one of my very favourite babies to photograph came by for the fun.

She was a really good sport in the angel outfit....and just LOOK at those eyes!

And, of course, if you show up at my studio with a hat like THIS, you're gonna get your picture taken in it!!!

Thanks to all who joined in my Angel fun, whether you were an elegant angel, earth angel or rebel angel. We'll do it again next year!!!!
