Yet again, I get to meet the COOLEST people ever. This awesome couple is no exception!! Connor proposed to Whitney at this historic Elmhurst theater, so it was very important that we capture them here! I love the retro vibe this sign gives off and how cool they look below it. We ended up just wandering around downtown Elmhurst and finding the most awesome little nooks and crannies. A very playful, fun-loving (and hilarious) couple; I enjoyed every second of our time together. Congratulations you two!!!!

Do you remember this gorgeous family from last summer?!! Hands down… it was one of my most favorite shoots-to-date. Welp, after an iffy day of weather (it poured only an hour before our scheduled shoot time), we got to meet back up again. And man, oh man, they didn’t disappoint. Gahhh. I got to meet little man, C (whom was in momma’s belly last time) – who is soooooo ridiculously cute (handsome). Big sis is full of soooo much personality and charm… I love her!! First thing she said to me was, “I REMEMBER YOUUU!” Which is pretty much amazing. I don’t remember what I did last week! HA! They all rocked it and once again, looked stunning!!

Three kiddos under three years made for an interesting session, but we laughed it off and worked through it! It was a pleasure meeting this family in my childhood hometown/park for a gorgeous morning session. Full of love, hugs and good times and a little staticky hair.

Awwwwh man, this is the last time I’ll get to hang out with this awesome family… they’re moving to Texas this fall. SAD, SAD, SAD!! I’ve been lucky enought to capture some sweet moments in their lives and have been photographing Baby B since she was 7 days old…. I am most definitely sad to see them go. Super happy we were able to squeeze in one last session before the took off for NO winters, warmer weather and sunnier skies. Best of luck to you alllllll!! <3

Gaaaaaaahhhhh… it is always such an honor to meet back up with past families. So it was a huge honor to meet baby T, Girl #4 for this adorable family (I’d say Daddy has his hands full at this point, no?!) Her big sisters absolutely ADOOOOOOOORE her and were happy to give hugs and kisses to their new little sister! Here are just a few sneak peeks of our session and the cuteness that this family brings to each and every shoot!!

Say helloooooo to the beautiful {E} family… new residents of the WONDERFUL city of Chicago! They’ve been here just about a month and have had a great time exploring all that this fabulous city has to offer. I mean, what a great summer to experience Chicago, right!? I met up with this growing family on a beautiful Sunday morning and captured their family as they are right now. Baby BOY is making his Chicago debut this fall. I cannot wait to meet him. <3
