I am blessed to have amazing clients that trust in me to capture these memories for their families, including maternity photos. Gorgeous Mama-to-be, Samantha, was so easy and so fun to photograph! We had a beautiful Chicagoland fall day to capture these moments. As you will see, Samantha, and her husband, were just so happy to be welcoming a new little one soon! Thank you for trusting in me as a Schaumburg area maternity photographer to capture these moments!

SENA IS ONE!
A sweet, simple cake smash to celebrate this beautiful first birthday milestone
My cake smash sessions always include one simple setup and one outfit. Mom wanted something soft and dreamy for Sena, so we kept it classic with white curtains and balloons.
Before we bring out the cake, I always like to take a few simple portraits to capture your little one just as they are at this special milestone. Then comes the fun part—the cake! Some babies dive right in, some prefer to play with it, and some aren’t quite sure what to think. And honestly, it’s all part of the fun.
A bubble bath can also be added for an additional fee, and it’s such a fun way to finish the session!
Happy 1st birthday, sweet Sena 🫶

Santa is coming
A huge thank you to everyone who has already asked to be added to my Santa VIP list! The list is already getting pretty long, and I’ve been so excited to see how much interest there is in this year’s Santa Magical Experience.
The good news? Santa will be visiting for TWO days this year!
I’m still putting the final details together, but my VIP list will be the very first to receive all the information and the booking link when everything is ready.
If you haven’t joined the list yet and you’re hoping to see Santa this year, now is definitely the time to get on it!
If you’d like to be added to the VIP list, please send me a DM with your email address or email me directly, and I’ll make sure you’re added to the list.
I can’t wait to create another truly magical experience for your little ones 🫶

A little life update 🤍
I wanted to share a little personal update since some of you may have noticed that I’ve been a bit slower than usual lately.
I’ve been dealing with a health issue affecting my nerves over the past several weeks. It’s caused quite a bit of pain and has left me more tired than usual. I’m medically cleared to continue working, but I’m still not feeling 100%.
If I seem a little tired or if I take a little longer to respond to an email or get a proof gallery back to you, I just wanted you to know there’s a reason. As a one-woman business, I’m the person behind everything — from your emails and sessions to editing and delivering your galleries. I’m still working away behind the scenes and giving every session and gallery the same care and attention I always do; I may just need a little extra time right now.
I’m working from home today and will be catching up on emails and sending out several proof galleries throughout the day. 🤍
Thank you so much for your patience, understanding, and kindness while I get back to feeling like myself. It truly means a lot 🫶
And now for some happier news…
Hello Fall Minis are returning!
The vintage truck is coming back, sessions will be held at a farm in Crystal Lake on Saturday, October 3rd. The booking link has been open for a couple of days now, and some of you have already grabbed your spot! There are still four spots available.
Santa is returning!
Santa sessions will be held on Sunday, November 15th and Sunday, November 29th. The booking link isn’t live just yet, but I already have a long VIP list. If you’d like to be notified before the link goes public, send me a message and I’ll add you to the list.
More fall minis?
Depending on how I’m feeling throughout September, I may add another date for regular fall minis in October. I’ll keep you posted!
And lastly, I just want to say how much I appreciate each and every one of you. Some of you have been with me from the very beginning, and so many of you have continued to come back year after year and trust me with your most important memories.
Thank you all for being such a wonderful part of this journey with me
