libertyville IL family photography

I’ve known this family for yeeaaaars.  Jess and I first met in college where we swam together.  Her little guy is a “runner” as she and Josh like to say.  That high energy totally works for me and I can match it during their session.  I am usually a sweaty mess by the end, but that’s ok.  Anything for photos, right?

Also, let’s be honest.  I am always a sweaty mess when I’m photographing families, chasing kids or not.

So parents, don’t worry.  I know photos are super stressful, but know that I can handle your kiddo.  Shy or outgoing.  Crazy or reserved.  Or somewhere in between all of those.  The teacher in my knows what to do.  And 10-ish years of acting like a fool behind the camera will do that, too.

Anywho, we had an overcast fall day, but it all worked out.  The sun peeked out for us at the tail end of their session when they were on the docks, so I got about 5 minutes of sun.  But it was still a beautiful session.  <3

Sidenote: I love his blonde, curly hair.  It made the most perfect little halo of blonde around his head.

The crazy thing?  As I write this mom just had baby #2! They are making their way into my studio this week for their newborn photos and I cannot wait to share those with you, too.

 

I would love to chat with you about family photography to see if we’re a good match.  My summer schedule has a handful of spots left (last I looked I had 5 between now and September 1).

My fall schedule will open at the end of June.  Those always sell out FAST.

If you want more info or have questions, please contact me.  Let’s have fun!
