As a photographer featuring Chicagoland newborn photography, I am always so honored when clients ask me to capture these moments and memories for them! Here, you will meet handsome baby Pierson! Now, he was just a perfect little baby boy at his newborn session!
First, we started with one of the favorite and more requested newborn poses, the baby in the bucket! Now, since perfect baby boy was sound asleep, it was easy to pose him here. And, I love the blue with the deep red tone, too!Next, we stayed with the same colors, but moved baby into a bowl for a different pose. Here, I love those toes peeking out from the newborn wrap, too!Then, we stayed with the blue tones, since that’s what Mom and Dad requested before their session. As a photographer specializing in Chicagoland newborn photography, I gear all my sessions toward the parents and their color choices. Now, I have several hats, wraps, headbands, baskets, bowls, and blankets to choose from at my studio. But, I ask ahead of time to each family what color choices they prefer, and if there is anything specific they wanted at their session. And, I remind them that each newborn photographer has their own style, but I do have them choose their color choices.Next, since baby boy was so sound asleep and easy to work with, I was able to pose him in another extremely popular newborn pose, the froggy pose!To finish, we wrapped baby boy in all blue, with a comfy winter blue hat, to end his newborn session!

I’m Agata, the face behind the camera. Truthfully, I’m much more comfortable behind the lens than in front of it, but I wanted to take a moment to share a little bit about myself.
I’ve been a photographer for the past 13 years, specializing in newborns, maternity, and families. Over the last few years, I’ve shifted my focus more toward newborn and baby sessions, scaling back on outdoor family sessions to spend more time in my cozy Long Grove studio. It’s truly my happy place, filled with soft wraps, beautiful props, and sweet outfits to make every session special and styled just right.
Photography is such a powerful way to freeze a moment in time, and I’m so honored to be the one capturing those first days, tender connections, and growing families.
I truly love what I do. Being able to freeze time and create memories for families is something I cherish deeply. I’m a quiet soul who tends to keep to myself, but I care deeply about the people I work with and always strive to make every experience warm, thoughtful, and beautiful.
Family means the world to me. I just celebrated my 20th wedding anniversary with my husband, Mark. We have two amazing kids: our daughter is about to start college at the University of Alabama (Roll Tide! 🐘), and our son is entering his junior year of high school. He plays hockey for his school team, so weekends are usually spent at the rink cheering him on with our awesome hockey family. 🏒 We also have three little Shih Tzus who keep life fun and chaotic in the best way.
Whether you’ve been following along for years or you’re new here, thank you for being part of this space. I’m so grateful for every family who trusts me with their memories. 💛
And of course, I can’t forget about my wonderful friend Christine who took these photos for us. I love each and every one of them and will truly cherish them forever. Thank you for capturing us. 🤍
Still smiling thinking about this sweet session with baby Levi
It was such a joy to see this wonderful family again—I photographed big brother as a newborn almost two years ago, and now they’re back with their newest little love.
Levi was absolutely perfect, and getting to capture this next chapter for a returning family truly means so much. Watching these little ones grow and being trusted to document their milestones is the greatest honor.
Sweet Bennett came back to see me for his 9-month session, and what a joy it was! This age is one of my absolute favorite milestones to capture—babies are full of smiles, sitting up confidently, and just radiating pure happiness.
It feels so special to have photographed Bennett since before he was born—from his parents’ maternity session to his newborn portraits, and now this beautiful stage. Watching these little ones grow and being trusted to document their journey is truly the heart of what I do. 💛
If you’re thinking of capturing this milestone for your little one, 9 months is the perfect time!
