Larson Family | Woodstock, IL

Tiffany is a client-from-work turned friend and I am so glad I met her and got to know her...and her family. She has three adorable, sassy, mischievous little girls that you wouldn't believe some of the things I've heard them do by looking at their sweet faces in these pics. They are all so adorable and were so much fun. It was my honor to photograph all of them. This lil' happy fam of 5 :)

These images were shot at her husband's parents house in Woodstock, IL on their property. Just gorgeous and so many little areas to look at! She is going to be framing selected images to present to them as a wedding anniversary gift in September, so I'm anxious to see which pictures she chose!

You can always visit my Facebook page to view all the images from this shoot as well as the images in black and white, color and the alternate color option I gave to her. 

Rick + Shana | Downtown Elgin, IL

Meet Rick and Shana. They are just adorable together and compliment each other so well. She had sent me pictures of spots that she thought might be great to take photos and we went to almost every one of them!! It was a very busy day in Downtown Elgin that day (and HOT!) but you would never know by looking at these. It felt like they were the only two people out there that day. So much fun!!

I couldn't wait to share these images with you! I had so much fun just walking and discovering places to take photos in Downtown Elgin, other than what we had originally decided on. Exciting to discover kind of hidden places that most people would turn up their nose at. You be the judge :) Alleys are now going to be my favorite hidden gem! 

 

My favorite spot she picked had to be the tattoo shop. That was the place I couldn't wait to get to!! I love it.

One Year Photos with Cake Smash!!

My friend asked me if I would take her daughter's photos for her one year pictures and of course I said yes. When she asked about doing a cake smash, honestly, I was overjoyed!! I had ALWAYS wanted to do one of these. And after doing this, I've decided that every child needs one!!!! I hope you enjoy the images I've captured. I know mom was thrilled with the pictures, and that makes me one happy camper.

 

 

 

And now for the cake smash...
