Let it Snow! | {chicago children's portrait photographer}
I have been waiting for it to snow so I could get some great wintery portraits and it finally snowed Saturday morning! We actually rescheduled this session to give the little man a little bit more time to sit up on his own and I'm so glad we did! The winter air kept him calm and content, and the pop of color against a white snowy backdrop is always one of my favorite's!
This little guy is SIX months old!! Many of you remember his newborn session.. all that hair!! Here's a little before and after:
Baby J at a few days old:
... and look at him now! Six months:
Wintery sessions are so much fun! Think bright colors, hot cocoa, snowball fights.. family fun. :)

Grey isn't a bad thing. | {Volo IL Family Portrait Photographer}
I'm sure you will remember this lovely family's sneak peek. I always love to work with extended families who all come together for this purpose because it's a meaningful time. It's become somewhat cliche to say that a portrait captures a moment in time, but I suppose there's a reason it's become a popular saying. It's true. We truly need to cherish each day we have with our loved ones as gifts, and document them. Don't wait until you lose weight (my excuse), get braces off, find the perfect outfits, etc. The purpose it to remember that time as it was. Mom's, make sure you have your family photos taken once a year so that you can be -in- the pictures too. I'm guilty of this as well!!
Now on to the rest of this session.. While the fall color was coming to an end, the texture of this field provided enough interest to create a beautiful backdrop. I suggested the grey and purple color combination because it's a great way to do neutral while keeping it a little different than the standard black or white. Grey and purple also pop so well against this field!!
If you'd like to give the gift of a photography session to a loved one, contact me! I have gift certificates that can be boxed and gift wrapped, custom to any amount/package you'd like to give.

Alison | Class of 2012 {vernon hills, il senior portrait photographer}
More senior love! This lovely lady has been helping me out since May.. I just love her :) We had the best time at the beach in October. The fall color was amazing but the best part of this locatoin is it's versatility. It really has it all. Forest, rocky shoreline, and fields full of yummy texture.. a photographer's dream!
