Project: Spring

Spring is a wonderful time of year. Not just because it means no more snow for 7 months, but because flowers and buds on trees and the smell in the air all put a big smile on my face. All of the pictures for this month’s project were taken in my backyard while Isaac and … Read more

Jim and Elizabeth engagement session

I love visiting Chicago.  Having lived there for 6 years, I have a special place in my heart for the windy city.  What can make a trip back to Chicago even better?  A photo shoot!  As luck would have it, Jim and Elizabeth, who are set to be married on May 9th (and photographed by … Read more

Logical menu options.  My … Read more

A November engagement session

Normally you don’t schedule an engagement portrait session outdoors in November because the weather can be unpredictable. In the case of Angie and Mike, they weren’t going to let that stop them. As it turns out, luck was on their side and they had about the best day you could ask for — partly cloudy, … Read more

The kids in Fall color

On Saturday we did a marathon photo session at the Arboretum — four sets of kids.  Ok, maybe that’s not quite a marathon, but it was a good workout nonetheless.  Luckily, the weather was absolutely gorgeous and the Fall colors were peaking.  Here’s a sampling of the pictures — there are more to see on … Read more
