Schaumburg IL family photographer

I am pretty sure I just did this family’s newborn photos a week before this cloudy, early fall session, but nope! Here we are for her 6 month photos in Schaumburg, IL. It is crazy how fast that time goes by.

Once again, this family nailed the wardrobe (yaaaay). I like to pretend it’s all me prepping them with ideas and I’ll just stick with that. But seriously, they are perfection and have a super adorable little girl, to boot! I swear in every other frame she was sticking her tongue out at me which made culling a blast. I had to be extra careful to be sure included photos with it IN.

I was so worried it was going to rain on us during this session. In fact I am pretty sure I had already rescheduled it from earlier in the week due to rain so I was going to do what it took to not reschedule again (I know how it is prepping for a photo session). And while I love a good sunflare, no sun and a high chance of rain created some super dramatic skies for us, instead. So pretty! I am pretty sure it began drizzling as we drove away at the end, so it was perfect timing!

I am lucky that I will get to see this family 1 more time for her 1 year photos. I love when parents opt for the the newborn, 6 month, and 1 year session so I get to know them better and see their kiddo grow. Plus, the parents have that grown professionally documented for her as she gets older – something she is seriously going to appreciate for the decades to come.

I would love to photograph you, as well! While this session was in Schaumburg, my studio is in Lake Zurich IL and I photograph families all through the area including Palatine, Arlington Heights, Northbrook, Crystal Lake, Barrington, and others. Besides creating awesome photos, my goal is to make the whole experience as stress-free for families as possible. Contact me now to see how I can do this for you, too.
