The Ziegler Family - Chicago Children's Photographer

I am not sure how the Ziegler Family wasn't posted before now, but here they are! They were one of my last families I was able to photograph outdoors before the Chicago winter kicked in at the end of last year. Lisa recently joined Facebook inspiring me to upload some fun pictures from our session for her and it reminded me that we didn't have a post here either.

Zach is a total blast to hang out. And even though he tried with all his might not to look at me when I had my camera up that day, he did a great job.

Emily & Deanna

Last week I spent a fun (albeit) cold day taking portraits with two photographer friends: Emily DeWan and Deanna Mandarino. We had a great time using the alleys and bright painted walls in the neighborhood. There was definitely a lot of giggling since we tend to be more comfortable taking pictures over being in them :-)

Tahirih & Andy

TEA and Andy were married on Halloween last year at A New Leaf in Old Town. (Yes, I am very behind on all of my postings.) I was so worried that they were having a garden ceremony that late in the year, but it was an absolutely gorgeous day. I loved that they were getting married exactly how they wanted to. TEA had this lovely dress that wasn't your traditional white gown and they walked each other down the aisle. Their love and happiness just shines through them! They are just the cutest couple ever and I had a blast with them and all of their loved ones.





Check out TEA's awesome shoes. She was such a cool bride :-)


They had these awesome cake toppers to honor Halloween, but only the little ones came in their costumes.



Everyone was having such a good time together...



One adorably happy couple.

The Finnane Family - Chicago Baby Photographer

What a fabulous time I had with the gorgeous Finnane's. How adorable is this little man? Cael is so full of personality already and was so much fun to photograph with mom and dad. Sarah, Jay and Cael - thanks for allowing me to capture all your love - you are such a lovely family.
