Barrington Baby Photographer

September 12, 2016

A few weeks ago I met this family for their maternity photos and here I am introducing their newborn baby girl! She was what I call a very aware baby (reacted to each time I touched her) but she still did awesome and I was able to have an overly full gallery for them. I am a neutral color lover, but these soft tones looked so beautiful on her. She had the most perfect little rolls and cheeks for daaaaaays. Plus she wasn’t shy and liked watching me work – check out her photo below of the amazing eye contact she gave me! They ended up creating an amazing display in their home with 3 framed photos – I know once they hang it up it’s going to look amazing!

Newborn photography is some of my favorite and I would love to photograph yours! Please contact me now to schedule your session.

Golden Photography has a private studio in downtown Lake Zurich, IL and serves families throughout the area including Barrington IL, Lake Zurich IL, Hawthorn Woods, Libertyville, Vernon Hills, Lake Forest, Palatine and more throughout the Northwest Chicago suburbs. Because they are photographed in those first 2 weeks, newborn baby photography is best scheduled before your baby is here, preferably during your second trimester to ensure availability. The studio specializes in newborn photography as well as heirloom art so that you are able to enjoy your photos for decades to come. Creating wall galleries is also something that is unique to Golden Photography, so if you would love for someone to design something special just for you look no further!

Lake Bluff IL beach photographer

September 5, 2016

I LOVE the beach! And I adore this family! I met them last year but they recently moved and wanted to update their photos at Sunrise Beach in Lake Bluff, IL. It’s a great little beach with rocks and amazing scenery and its not overly crowded. It was my first time there and I hope it’s not the last! Beach sessions in the Chicago area are interesting because we face East and don’t get the warm, glowy sunsets that I love, but we do get some amazing colors in the sky as the sun sets behind the bluff that is there at this location. The colors change so fast, too! Within minutes it was blue, to orange, to purple and pink, all depending on my angle and the time. Beautiful!

These kids are full of spunk and personality and I really enjoy photographing them. because they have so many expressions that come through for me! Plus, all I have to talk about is anything Disney and we’re all on the same page. I know mom and dad do not want to be in their photos, but V was having such a sweet moment with dad and they had an amazing sky behind them I had to sneak it in!

I cannot wait to see their photographs when they arrive! They ordered a series of framed prints to go up their staircase as well as a print to update a frame they already had and I know it’s all going to look amazing when it’s all said and done.

If you would love to photograph your kids at a beach I would also love to photograph you! Please contact me for more information.

New and growing families are both fun for me. And this one was both – a new Golden Photography family AND a new baby was on the way! Woo hoo! Plus, they’re pretty darn adorable, so it was like a super win for me. It was an overcast day, but we had some amazing sun peeking out at the very beginning for this beautiful momma’s solo photos. I know they say that some people have that pregnancy glow. The sun was literally making her glow! Check out these first few photographs below and tell me I’m wrong!Plus, check out how proud big sister and (soon to be) big brother are. They were so excited to meet her! I cannot wait to see how they are with her at baby sister’s newborn photo session.

Golden Photography is based in Lake Zurich, IL but serves families all throughout the community with her newborn and family photography. Her studio also specializes in finished artwork and creating wall galleries so you can enjoy your photos over the decades to come. Her service area includes Barrington, Schaumburg, Inverness., Hawthorn Woods, Libertyville, Lake Bluff, and more.

If you are expecting and would love to document your special time, please contact Stacy for more information. Maternity photography is best done between 32-35 weeks and newborn photography is best done when baby is close to 2 weeks old. Because I take a limited number of sessions a month, it is best to schedule them in advance to ensure availability. Both can be scheduled early in your 2nd trimester. I would love to meet you and your family! stacy@golden-photography.net

I am always blows away at how much they change every few months – this guy was no exception at 6 months old. This age can be pretty tricky since the whole stranger danger and separation anxiety starts to set in. Luckily, I guess I’m pretty awesome because this guy was all smiles for me and was pretty mellow for his whole session. He has some pretty amazing parents, so I am sure that has something to do it with!

Plus he had the most smily eyes I have ever seen. Scroll down to the photograph of him pulling the blanket over his face and his eyes are peeking out. Even though his mouth is covered, you can see how BIG his smile is by just seeing his eyes. Plus, naked babies are always cute. I mean, duh. Baby fat rolls make everyone smile!

Just a few more months and this family will be back for his 1 year photographs. You know what that means? Cake smash!!! It also means a bittersweet session for me, as I won’t see them nearly as often.
