{sleeping like a baby} Barrington, IL Newborn Photographer

Some days, the newborn photography gods smile down on me. Today was one of those days... my babies were happy, my parents were friendly, my nurses were helpful, and even the lighting was great. I had a new basket to try out and these babies gave it a resounding thumbs up... tushies up? I'm getting more confident with these babies and find that I actually really love working with the itty bitty 5 pounders. So different from my Millie...

Anyway, we got some good ones today and I just have to share. Enjoy!

{City Girls} Elgin IL Child Photographer

Today, despite dreary and dismal overcast skies, I took my sister (visiting from Michigan) and my girls out location scouting in Elgin, IL. An historic downtown area - set against the fox river, and undergoing continuous renovation and restoration - it is the ideal urban setting for portraits.

The innocence of my daughters set against the grit of the city really spoke to me... expect to see more sessions in these locations!
