Shelley and Drew - Family Pictures

It has been a true pleasure to be a part of Shelley and Drew's lives. This is my second time photographing this family (not including their wedding this past March) and I'm so honored that they continue to let me be a part. I love watching their children grow and capturing those moments for them. We did this session at Curtis Orchard - one of my favorite places. With children under the age of 3, you can never be too sure how things are going to go - but lucky for me, they love the camera - as in, love to use my camera. I take a picture, they take a picture. A little bribery never hurts, right?!? :) Check out this adorable family.

This one is definitely my favorite!

Such a silly girl!

And how I adore this one

So they're not looking, but love the interaction with Dad

Lucky for me, I get to see these adorable people again this weekend when I get to photograph the entire family. So excited!!

Cailyn - 6 Months

I had the pleasure of seeing Miss Cailyn for her 6 months pictures. I love when I get photograph children through their first year. I love being able to capture those precious moments and see how they grow from each session together. This time we did a bathtub theme for Cailyn, and I just love how much she loved it. See Miss Cailyn and her adorable family below. 

Love this!

Love her expression in this one.

Joel - newborn

I love this family! They are some of the sweetest people I have ever met. I had the honor of photographing Amariah and Marcus' wedding last year, and was so excited when I got word that Amariah was expecting baby Joel this year. He is, by far, one of the cutest little boys I have ever seen- especially rockin' that mohawk. Don't believe me, just check out this adorable family!

Lee Family

Meet the Lee Family! I met this adorable family at my current full time job. They are both professors at the University of Illinois, and they noticed the pictures of my daughter on my desk, and one  conversation led to another - and there I was, taking their pictures. Love how that works! They are nothing short than adorable. It was Baby J's first photo shoot, and let me tell you, he's a natural. I hope to get to see him and his adorable sister again very soon!
