Miss A, Dance Recital | Illinois Dance Photographer
May 29, 2010This is my cousin’s little girl… Isn’t she adorable in her dance recital costume? I love the bright colors.. And her showing me little dance moves was the cherry on top to add to her cuteness! 
Ryan & Katie knew of a couple spots they wanted to visit for their engagement session, so I ventured over to Pontiac, IL to meet up w/ them.. It was a lot of fun looking around and finding some locations to use. Both were a lot of fun to photograph, and I’m so excited and looking forward to their September wedding… Thanks, Ryan & Katie!
Newborn Baby J | Illinois Newborn Photographer
May 26, 2010It seems like just yesterday in which I photographed this sweet baby boy in his mommy’s tummy… He made his appearance, and I couldn’t be more thrilled w/ how he did for his very first portrait session. I think his mommy & daddy might have gotten him used to cameras during his first few days of life.. hehe… Looking forward to watching baby J throughout his first year, M family! =)
I think all the little expressions babies make is adorable! Wrinkled noses;
One Year Old; Miss E | Illinois Child Photographer
May 25, 2010This sweet family is getting ready to celebrate Miss E’s first birthday.. Such a fun age! I loved her smiles and big laughs… A happy girl, for sure! Can’t you just hear her giggles in a couple of the images below? Thanks for the visit, E family! =)
And a birthday collage;
I not only have the pleasure of photographing special weddings, I also get to spend some time w/ the couples beforehand for their engagement photos! I love hearing about their details, as well as hearing the excitement in their voices. Makes me giddy! We had great weather for Dave & Marissa’s engagement session… They were fun to work w/, and were naturals in front of the camera! Thanks for a great session, and see you soon! =)
Macro Monday | Illinois Abstract Photographer
May 24, 2010Happy Monday!
I really liked both the color & bw version of this one… 
I had so much fun w/ Chad & Katie during their engagement session.. Such an awesome couple! The entire time while photographing them, I could sense such a pure, caring love between the two of them. I’m super excited & look forward to their October 2nd wedding this year. Thank you for a fantastic and fun engagement session, Chad & Katie!
I thought this was so sweet… This was the exact location that Chad proposed to Katie! 
Macro Monday | Illinois Macro Photographer
May 17, 2010Sometimes the rain can be a welcomed variable in macro floral photographer.. The rain drops resting upon petals creates a completely different feel & mood.. What do you think?
I’m also taking macro requests? Any ideas that YOU would like to see my macro take on? Throw it at me, and I’d love to take on the challenge! Just leave a comment below, or e-mail me w/ your thoughts..
Happy Monday, make it a great week!
One Year Old, Miss B | Illinois Child Photographer
May 17, 2010This sweet girl just turned ONE! Remember her as a newborn? Isn’t it amazing how much babies change in one year? Here she is again at 6 months.. The weather was perfect for her outdoor session at the park. She was such a happy girl, and seemed to enjoy her camera time.. Thanks for a fun year w/ Miss B, M family!
