i’m not kidding. not only is every member of this family beautiful, they are such nice people that are really easy to be around. you may recognize big sister from an earlier session – well meet baby brother – who is just as sweet. babies and kids never cease to amaze me. i love the […]

sweet miss m was so very thoughtful – you could tell she was just taking it all in. once in awhile she would have something to say – she’s at that great baby age when they start to discover their voice! mostly, though, she just looked at me with those big (steel) blue eyes! mom […]

on sunday i had an outdoor session with a great family – we did it just in time!  just in time for what?  on my way home it started pouring!!!  while i have a feeling the little guy would have liked to play in the rain, the rest of us wouldn’t have enjoyed it nearly […]

it’s been such a busy weekend so far – i’ve already had three sessions!  all three were so fun, with such great families!  also, this crazy chicago weather has cooperated. my first session was with two sweet sisters – check out the dimples on older sister – she was also so smart – she pronounced […]

i had a session yesterday with the sweetest newborn!  when i arrived at her home she was wide awake – mom said she’d been up for awhile.  we started the session and she was a star – she didn’t cry once, just looked around, i swear she was posing for the camera!  we were able to get […]

What a great memorial day I had!  I went out to the ‘burbs’ and spent the day with a great friend and her growing family!  Her three beautiful kids were so fantastic – I loved this session!  Here’s a sneak peek – thanks for the fun day, the flowers and the pants! 🙂 (haha)

wished you had eyelashes like this? My first session with this sweet girl was in March when she was about 4 months old. (You may remember her from my website.)  Now, she’s 6 months old and sitting up!  I think her eyelashes have gotten longer!!   (If that’s even possible!)  The first time we met, she was very […]

I know a lot of 5 year old boys.  (I have one of my own.)  I find them fascinating (and sometimes exhausting!)  They know a lot about superheroes, dinosaurs, bugs, superheroes, monster trucks, cars, superheroes, etc.  Most conversations revolve around the above topics. (at least in my house!)  5 year old boys are also at […]

Is there anything cuter than a chunky baby?  I really don’t think so.  Combined with those big blue eyes – this baby had five adults acting very silly!!!  Here’s a sneak peek for his mom, dad and grandparents – oh and Lance!  Enjoy!  

This has been an exciting week for me!  I was back in my home town for some great events!  First, was my dad’s retirement party – retiring after 37 years – I can’t imagine doing anything for that long!  I am so proud of him.  His party was fantastic – it gave me a chance […]
