Little boys and their diggers

I recently took a break from all of the senior sessions I've been sharing and had the best time with this family of boys. It's always great when we can explore one of our local businesses and what better place to photograph little boys and their diggers than the Elmhurst-Chicago Stone Company? Mom thought it would be a great way to remember this time in the boys' lives in the town they live. It was a perfect backdrop for our little construction crew.

A little fun in the city

I met this family almost 6 years ago when I shot their oldest son’s senior photos. This year their twins graduated from high school. The family’s Wisconsin lake house is a big part of their summers and they wanted to capture all of the boys there. One of their favorite things to do at the lake is wakeboard. Despite the fact that I get severe motion sickness (as in I can’t do anything but look out the front window in a moving vehicle) and that I’d never shot anything from the back of a speed boat, I was all in!

The parents were so thrilled that they had giant canvases made to hang up in their great room up at the lake. I LOVE printing big art for my clients and I love how these turned out. Photography is an investment in your family — it should not be hidden away on your laptop or phone but displayed someplace where it can put a smile on your face every time you walk by. It’s artwork of the thing you prize the most — your family.

I loved watching this senior play LAX all season, and I was thrilled when his mom asked me to take his senior photos as well. Good luck at the Air Force Academy next year Lance. We can’t wait to watch you keep playing there!

I’m thrilled that senior spots are already filling up for this summer and fall. Hurry and reserve your spot for your rising senior now so that you don’t miss out!

Summer Senior Sessions

Love my LAX

What an amazing season for the 2023 York Varsity Lacrosse team! They ranked 6th in the state and made it to the sectional championship game but came up short in the end. I loved photographing these young men this spring. We will greatly miss all of the seniors who led this team all year, welcomed the new young guys (including my own kid) and embraced them as part of the team. Here are a few highlights from the season.

Congratulations to the Seniors!

Now booking senior sessions for summer and fall

Senior year. It’s the start of big changes and it deserves to be captured and remembered in style! We work together to find the perfect location to create your senior photos that represent who you are. If you run cross country, maybe it’s along the Prairie Path, if you love the city skyline we can head to the beach or Riverwalk. It’s all about showing the world YOU.

Now booking summer and fall senior sessions! Reach out to reserve your spot.

Congrats to this grad!

I spent a recent morning with this grad in the city and we had the best time. She wanted everything Chicago because it's her hometown -- so we made sure to capture the skyline and then headed down to the Riverwalk for some fun.

Summer is one of the best times for scheduling your photo session in Chicago. The weather is just perfect.
