It's November in Chicago - the windy city - so it was not entirely unexpected that we would have to deal with some wind - but WHOA! It was like a gale out there!
The kids did well, and we tried not to freeze them :-)
I think they did a super job, and *maybe* had a little bit of fun, too.
Thank you everyone for the opportunity to photograph your families - it was fun.
Here is your Sneak Peek.
ENJOY!
I'm telling you, this girl COULD NOT POSSIBLY take a bad photograph. I was so overwhelmed when I opened her files, because EVERY shot was fantastic. And I couldn't choose which ones to edit! A good problem to have, I know. But a problem nonetheless. What to do, except edit them all. Eek!
J is everything a girl could hope to be - smart, successful, a gifted athlete, and ridiculously beautiful. And absolutely one of the sweetest girls I've ever had the pleasure of being around.
This session was a ton of fun for me - it is never a difficult thing to go out and about with a pretty girl and exercise my creativity. I think J had a good time, too :-)
So, J, here is your Sneak Peek. I hope you love these images as much as I do.
ENJOY!
These kids are just the best. They are the offspring of two of my best friends and I love them to bits. After photographing them for over four years (really? FOUR??? No. Can't be!), I have to say this was the best session yet, especially for LA's little peanut, E. He was ON FIRE! He laughed, smiled, posed and was just awesome.
LA & Ryan, here is your Sneak Peek.
ENJOY!!
One of the amazing things about what I do is getting to see my client's babies grow and grow - and this little sweetheart is no exception. The first time I photographed K, she was a sweet, snuggly baby, then the next time she was up and moving - now she's tall as anything and busy as a bee. Truly awesome.
Here is a then:
Here she is, a bit later:
And here she is, now.
Beautiful.
T & K, I LOVED seeing you all again, and I hope to be there each birthday, for many more years to come!
Thank you for everything,
Here is your Sneak Peek.
ENJOY!!!
Now it's time for some 'Nilla!
I love photographing repeat clients. Because I photograph so many children, when I see my families year after year, and document the growth of their babies, I feel like I am a part of the whole process. And I love that. It is a truly special thing, and an amazing benefit to what I do.
Lisa, I had so much fun the first time around, and this time was even better. I am so glad I got to see you and your family again.
Here is your Sneak Peek.

This was the last of my cold, windy, Saturday Cleveland sessions - and it had a spectacular backdrop - Lake Erie. However, it also included swiftly dropping temps and gale force winds. However, the kids I was shooting were great sports - were game for all my ideas and fun to work with.
We even went right down to the shore to attempt a capture of some of the huge waves breaking on the shore - getting soaked in the process!
Kelly, thanks so much for the chance to meet your family - you were all great, and I had a wonderful time.
Here is your Sneak Peek.
ENJOY!!
The weekend I was in beautiful Cleveland was cold, rainy and windy. However, the weather did not phase this sweet little bundle ONE TINY BIT. He was outside in the chill and wet, having a super time. Little J did nothing but smile, grin and gurgle. I LOVED him. Babies like this are one of the true delights of what I do.
M, I loved meeting you and your lovely family - thank you so much for everything.
Here is your Sneak Peek.
ENJOY!!!!!!
The weather for this session was, saaaay....challenging, to say the least. Gale force winds, coooold and my personal favourite, sideways rain :-)
However, throw in a hip family, a cool location and some great kids and we pulled it off together!
We shot this session at the awesome Cleveland Institute of Music - and I would like to think that I absorbed some of the talent there by osmosis - just by being there. There was music in the air, people walking around with their instruments - artistry everywhere. It was GREAT.
Emily, it was so lovely meeting you and your family - thank you so much for everything.
Here is your Sneak Peek.
ENJOY!
I have been photographing this family since J was less than a year old, and have been friends with them since that time. They are truly a WONDERFUL family. I love hanging with them, I love photographing them, and I love going to visit them in Cleveland!
I was spoiled by great kids, wonderful locations, wonderful food and even better company.
The weather was less than ideal when I arrived, but like magic, things cleared up for J & A's session. Whew!
I was wowed by some absolutely wonderful locations - Cleveland is a truly beautiful place. I look forward to going again soon.
K & A, that you SO MUCH for ebverything. It was wonderful - and your images are STUNNING. I can't wait for you to see them. xoxox
Here is your Sneak Peek.
ENJOY!!!!
Phew - getting caught up on the blog is busy business!
I think I have said recently that I don't often get to shoot at the time of day known as the "Photographer's Sweet Spot", so when I do, I like to play. And I love the results every time. Completely amazing light. Yum.
I also loved being able to photograph this family - mom was super at wardrobe, dad was great and the kids were fun and into the whole thing. Even after a full day of summer camp, swimming and fun.
So, L, thank you so much for everything! Here is your Sneak Peek.
ENJOY!
