Bella - Chicago Pet Photographer

I don't get a lot of opportunity to photograph canine kids, but I have such a great time when I do. This is Bella and her mom, Laura. Aren't they sweet together? Bella is such a cutie (and check out her her adorable overbite!)

NPN Pre-NYE Bash - Chicago Children's Photographer

I had such a fun time photographing Neighborhood Parents Network's Pre-New Year's Eve Bash this year. It's a family event with lots of activities for different age groups. They did a countdown each hour with 101.9 The Mix with a balloon drop and noisemakers for everyone to enjoy. This year's event was held at Lil' Kicker's.























Here's a little slideshow from the event:

Dancing with Giordano Stars

This was my third year photographing Giordano Jazz Dance Chicago super fun benefit, a ballroom dance competition, Dancing with the Giordano Stars. This year's event was held at the Park West allowing the dancers to perform on a fully lit stage (making it awesome to photograph as well). As always, everyone did an amazing job!
