I truly love 2 year olds… really I do. Maybe it’s because I have one of my own, or because I love a challenge, but give me a 2 year old boy, some woods to romp in, and a sunny day, and I’m thrilled.  Little Mr. Simon did not disappoint. This little man was sweet as sugar, and had a smile that would not stop. He loved to posed for the camera and definitely had a heart of gold.

Super LOVE Lifestyle Session | Lakewood, Illinois

I have a PASSION for capturing families in their natural environment. Whether it’s snuggling on the couch reading everyone’s favorite books or roasting marshmellows in front of the fireplace, the fun and love is authentic. Don’t get me wrong, a posed picture can definitely portray your family’s emotions, but there is something about a good tickle fight that brings out laughter you can’t fake. My favorite part of lifestyle photography is that it preserves the age and stages of your kids. You won’t always be able to pull your little boy onto your lap for a good squeeze. By bringing a photographer into your home, into your favorite moments, you get to bottle up these special pieces of your family. THESE are the moments you will always want to remember!

Sweet baby Jacob | Lifestyle Newborn Session

When you bring your sweet babe home, you really have no idea how life is going to change. The diapers, the wipes, the crying and the feeding… and then the snuggles and the smiles. It’s a joy you can’t even imagine. When I capture a babe’s first days in their new home, I get to  photograph all these moments. The good and the bad. Without one, we wouldn’t have the other, and we want to remember each one. We want to never forget.

This beautiful mama has been my dear friend since grade school. We have walked down so many of life’s paths together. I’m so grateful to be by her side and she and her sweet hubby start the journey of parenthood. They have no idea the blessings in store for them!

Wondering what to wear?

2016-10-07_0006.jpgWondering what to wear to your upcoming shoot? Never fear, my quick tips are here!

-Start with one patterned piece and then pull everyone else’s clothing colors from the pattern
-Mix up textures! Layered sweater, chunky jewelry, scarves and belts give your photos a great feel
– Don’t forget your feet! Put women and girls in cute boots and the men and boys in leather shoes. Leave the tennis shoes at home!

For GOBS more tips, read my article on Little Lake County!

See you at your shoot!
