I’ve gotten incredibly lucky that I have enjoyed working with every single family that comes into my studio. I’ve been doing this roughly 10 years, so being able to say that is really something. The M family is totally chill and so in love with their baby boy, I could tell right away that they were my people. Plus, they trusted me to do “whatever”, which is always a nice compliment. Dad is also a local business owner, so its nice to have that connection, as well.
And honestly, if all babies slept like this guy I could do newborn sessions all. day. long. Right now I can manage only 1 a day, and 1 maaaaybe 2 a week. They’re pretty physically taxing – I joke they’re like a 2-3 hour long hot yoga session and I’m sore for the following day. But this guy didn’t make me bend into weird positions for him to get into or hold a pose, so thank you for being an amazing, sleepy baby! They’re a gorgeous and fun family, so I am super happy I get to see them again for 6 month and 1 year photos, too. I mean seriously – look at this perfect baby’s face!
My favorite? Dad with his new son. It’s the last photo collage, so scroll on down!
Trust me when I saw newborn sessions are my favorite! My studio is overflowing with so many props and other things for these sessions that all you need to do is bring me your baby. I will take care of everything else for you. My cozy studio is in downtown Lake Zurich IL and I work with families throughout Barrington, Palatine, Deerfield, Northbrook, Vernon Hills, Libertyville, and Highland Park (just to name a few).
Newborn photo sessions take place when baby is roughly 2 weeks old and I accept a few each month, so booking your session during your 2nd or 3rd trimester before baby’s due date is so important! Of course if baby is here don’t freak out – if I can squeeze your guys in I will, but I cannot promise it.
