Glen Ellyn Photographer: Merry Christmas!

So where did Christmas go?! It was whirlwind and has seemed to just fly by! Luckily I photographed this family and these photographs have such a pretty Christmas feel that they can last them all year long :)

These shots just crack me up! 3 kids under the age of 3 each with their own independence and plan with how our photo shoot would go. Here we go...

This little man was a little lover :) So sweet and just happy to be surrounded by his cousins. I gave him his first lollipop, so I am forever a part of his life! He he.


This little doll is a diva through and through. It was awesome. She held the power card all day and we just rolled with it! This is by far my favorite photograph. If you were hoping for an angelic pose with no underwear flashing, you came to the wrong place :) And how cute is this dress?! Grandma made it!


And this guy...we could have talked about super heroes all day long. He is obsessed, and luckily they hired the perfect photographer. I have a vast knowledge of all things super hero and we both share a love for Batman in particular!


So here are just a few of my other favorites...they all show what a wonderful relationship this family has! Cousins together laughing, playing, and being silly... what more could you ask for for the holidays!

Geneva Photographer: Been awhile!


Holy cow! I have been on holiday card overload and have pushed my lonely blog aside...but I AM BACK :) And back with a great family to show off!
Before the shoot I met with Margie to talk about what she envisioned for her family portrait and it was so nice to sit and chat with her about her family. She talked a lot about the historical documentation of a family portrait and being able to freeze time, so they can remember this time with their son. He is at the age that is still so boyish, yet so close to being a young man...and that time just goes by too fast!
So I was so excited to spend the morning with them and get some beautiful photographs capturing their smiles, laughter, and smirks :)

So enjoy the preview!
