Portrait Photographer serving Downers Grove, Illinois

Anna – Class of 2015 {Downers Grove, Plainfield High School Senior Photographer}

December 23, 2014

I love senior sessions!! Such an exciting time for the seniors with all the happenings that go into a senior year, as well as the excitement and the anticipation of what is coming ahead! There is also so much personality with this group – I love hearing about what their interests and activities are and their goals for the future. This beautiful girl was no different. Outside of her natural exterior beauty, I could tell instantly what a lovely person she is on the inside. I loved hearing about her, and in between clothing changes, having some time to talk with her Mom and learn more as well. One thing that was really cool to me was that she LOVES the fall, so she wanted her senior portraits to be taken in the fall, capturing the beautiful tones of autumn in both the backdrops and clothing choices. And the picture with her dog – love love love!! Thank you Anna (and your Mom!) for such a wonderful afternoon. It was a pleasure meeting you both and capturing this exciting time in your life. Enjoy every moment!

What a fun session with this wonderful family! I loved that they were interested in an urban setting and think it worked perfectly with having all boys! I really liked the textures and variety of backdrops that we had to work with, and I loved the laughter and jokes that were flowing between the boys! Thank you R Family for a great session and Happy Holidays!

Still catching up on blogging some of the wonderful family sessions that I have had this past fall. Here’s another one. Meet the B Family and their beautiful girls!!

Besides the fact that they were completely photogenic!! Thank you B Family for a wonderful session. It was a pleasure working with you all and those adorable girls of yours!! Happy Holidays!

I had a great session with this wonderful family, who happen to be great friends of mine! I have taken pictures of them over the years at vacations, Halloween, soccer games and school functions as our kids all hang out together, but this was our first “official” session. We had a beautiful fall day at one of my favorite locations, and just a really nice session! So photogenic and fun to be around! Thanks S Family for a great session!

The C Family {Downers Grove, La Grange Family Photography}

Meet the C Family! I photographed them a little earlier in the fall, hence the green and full amount of leaves on the trees!! Oh, and the shorts – haven’t been able to wear those in awhile around here!! Ok, back to this family! They won an auction for a session at the Almost Home Kids fundraiser earlier this year. Almost Home Kids is a wonderful organization that helps with transitional care for kids with complex medical conditions, with the goal of eventually getting these children to their home and families. Learn more here – http://almosthomekids.net I was excited to meet this family, as they helped support a great organization with this auction bid. They were so fun to photograph – full of smiles and some good ol’ brotherly goofing around, but so polite and well behaved. I loved the natural smiles and laughter between all of them – I think it’s evident from the pictures what a close group they are. Thank you C Family for a such a nice day and session!
