This precious girl! I loved meeting her and capturing these memories! I am so happy for this family!


Believe me, there were bribes for big brother but he did so well for his age. These toddlers never stop surprising me in the studio- both with what they will not do and what I can convince them to do. It makes no two sessions the same, that is for sure!


Enjoys same favorites!

I do newborn sessions at my studio in Watseka, IL. Newborn photos are for babies under 21 days of age and include a mix of posed and lifestyle shots, with a structured but flexible session. I've been photographing newborns and toddlers for well over a decade, and I have a workflow that works with whatever baby brings me! If this sounds like a good match for you, please reach out! I'd love to talk more with you about your babies first photos!
