Welcome to the world, Baby Zachary 🙂 He came to visit me at my Long Grove studio at 8 days new. I’ve known this sweet family for a few years, as I photographed his sister, Willow in December 2017. Zachary arrived 4 weeks before his due date, and was born healthy! Here is the message mom...

Sweet little Rosemary, just 12 days new, was absolute perfection during her session.
She posed so beautifully, and her proud 2 year old big brother completely melted my heart, he was smitten with her and so happy to pose with his new baby sister.
I just love meeting new families and capturing these fleeting, precious moments. This sweet mama actually found me on Instagram, and I’m so grateful she did, we had the nicest time together 🫶
Welcome to the world, baby Rosemary 🥰

Recently, I had the joy of photographing a 6-month milestone session for sweet baby Gianella. This milestone is one of my absolute favorites to capture, and Gianella made it extra special—she was such a light to photograph, super smiley, and just overall the cutest, happiest baby!
Here’s why I love capturing this stage:
- Big personalities are shining through – the giggles, the curiosity, the endless expressions… it’s all just the sweetest.
- Sitting up milestones – so many babies are starting to sit (or tripod!), which makes for the most adorable poses.
- Chubby cheeks & tiny toes – those squishy baby rolls won’t last forever, and they’re worth remembering.
- Interactive moments – peek-a-boo, clapping, and lots of eye contact bring so much joy into every image.
- The halfway mark – you’re already halfway through their first year, and that alone is a reason to celebrate!
- Timeless memories – these photos beautifully fill the gap between newborn and first birthday.
- Family connection – this stage is perfect for capturing the love and bond between you and your little one.
Don’t miss this stage—book yours now! I’ll be sharing many more sneak peeks from Gianella’s session soon.

Some sessions are extra special, and this one truly was. I don’t photograph senior sessions often, which made this one even more meaningful.
Naomi isn’t just my daughter’s best friend, she’s like a second daughter to me. My daughter and Naomi met years ago in dance class and instantly became inseparable. Even now, with my daughter away at college, Naomi’s hugs and presence always bring so much joy into my home.
Naomi, you are absolutely stunning, so smart, and such a beautiful soul. It was an absolute honor to capture your senior photos and celebrate this exciting chapter in your life. I cannot wait to see all that the future holds for you! you are destined for incredible things.
Thank you for letting me be part of this special milestone 🫶
