Little H and the P’s : Chicago Family Photographer

Monday, June 29, 2009 at 9:04am

Edited to add: Please see below for an awesome opportunity for any pregnant women in their third trimester in July.

This family made their way to me from Rogers Park on Friday evening.  They showed up in great spirits and were all smiles despite the ‘eh’ pre-session traffic antics and I thank them because traffic was horrid and they got all snagged up in it.  K walked into the studio and said: "I know absolutely that this will be worth it and it just doesn’t matter."  Gosh, did I mention that I love when my clients walk in saying wonderful things?  :)  Cuz I do!   

Little H (who, incidentally is *the* most smiley, happy baby I have seen in studio this year) is going to grow up to be a big ole flirt!  What an adorable guy with a great big smile.  Not to disappoint we had gorgeous light for our time together-mixed with good company and smiling faces, what’s NOT to love?

Suburban Chicago Children’s Photographer : Hot & Humid in the ‘burbs

Friday, June 26, 2009 at 2:37pm

I had the great pleasure of seeing KC & his lovely mom yesterday morning.  We kept getting ‘rained out’ for sessions so we decided to brave the bright sunshine, hot hot heat and humidity to fit this session in before KC grew out of his uniform.    Yeah mon (inside joke).

I’d first met KC a couple of years ago when he and his parents came out to the studio for a session.  We had a blast.  It’s so cool to watch these kids grow up to be bigger kids - there is no greater honor than to be allowed to document this time in a family’s life.  This is KC Fall 2007:

This session was all KC and focused on his passion for baseball.

This boy is ALL boy.  Every once in awhile I caught a glimpse of what is coming up…

Thanks KC for putting up with the hot humid sticky late morning weather.  Hope you enjoyed Ben Franklin & the Polka Dot and thanks to A for taking the trip out to Wilmington once again for a MarmLocation shoot.  It was great seeing one of my very favorite families.

 

Skipping Fashionista Friday for today - I have a bunch of stuff to catch up on - I will bring it back next week!  Stay tuned.  :)

Kimberly - Perfect. I love that Mom made this session all about *him* and what *he* loves. Mare, you constantly amaze me.

Kristie Chadwick - I love these. This is a hard age and he looks so natural.

Terrilyn - Mare, there is something to be said for a photographer who can capture such relaxed images of older children like these. You have such chemistry both with the camera and your subjects, well done!

Daveen - Just perfection!! Love images like these that capture who each child is at that moment.

CarmenM - I just love all your work and these are no exception. The reflection of the feet in the one is great! Lovely work as always.

Marianne - Thanks Annette. *I* am so pleased to be able to create these for you. Yeah mon!! xoxox

Kylie K. - Love 'em. Just saw your work from the Daily Candy site from a few months ago - I will be calling soon to set up an appointment for my three month old. You are so talentd!

Jen - What a handsome boy. That black and white shot of him is simply amazing. So nice to see photographs of a school age child - all too many parents take this age for granted.

Annette - Mare: Oh my!!! My boy has changed so very much!! You captured exactly what I was looking for ~ YEAH MON!! As always, many, many thanks for creating such special memories for my family!! All the BEST!! Annette

Joliet Children’s Photographer and a Day of Mentorship

Sunday, June 21, 2009 at 4:44pm

Yesterday’s session was tied up with my day of mentoring one-on-one with the Orlando’s delightful Sarah Bray .  Thank you Sarah for travelling up from the south SOUTH and hanging out for a day with me.  I hope you take away all the good stuff that I had lined up for you! 

Back to the session (only one of four that I did not get rained out on in the past seven days!)…I had the pleasure of photographing Faith’s (and Shawn’s) beautiful kids yesterday late morning.  They were wonderful!  So fun!  So happy!  So silly!  I loved meeting them and having the opportunity to see Faith after, I don’t know, what’s it been?  20 years almost??  :)  So without further delay - some of the most adorably fun kids this side of Chicago!

The lovely S - she is a spitting image of her gorgeous mom.  No joke.

Fashionista Friday : Rained Out Chicago Children’s Photographer

Bros : Chicago On Location Photographer + Fashionista Thursday

Thursday, June 11, 2009 at 9:38am

I first met R and his gorgeous parents a couple of years ago.  We did a session around their home in the Roscoe Village ‘hood in the city.  I have never met such a happy-go-lucky guy as R - seriously this guy knows how to have a good time! 

Fast forward to yesterday, a slightly overcast day, I drove to see R and his p’s and meet T - the little brother!  We had a fun (and fast!) session - hanging out on the street in front of the shops and in between the buildings.  I had a blast exploring your little corner of the city with you guys!  Thank you Mary for having me out again - it was a BLAST to hang out with the boys.

So enough idle chit chat - on with the sneak peeking!

Aurora Children’s Photographer : A Sneak Peek

Monday, June 8, 2009 at 11:39pm

Miss K and her mom came to see me this past Monday at the Wilmington Studio.  I loved seeing here again and we had the most amazing time catching up (you may remember Miss K from her session back  in 2007 and then a mini session here).  I loved hanging out with her and her mom - for as much as she has grown she is still so very much the same (and more beautiful than ever if that’s even possible!!)  She’s smart, she’s lovely and she has an awesome wardrobe!  What more can a girl want?

Suburban Chicago Child Photography

Stunning little beauty (and so tired of me @ this point!) - I think this is right before the snack.

Elmhurst Family Photographer @ the Waterfall + Stuff To Do in Chicago

Sunday, June 7, 2009 at 12:10pm

I first met Andrew and his p’s a few years back, they came to have a Marmalade Location session one early morning in the fall of ‘06 (I cannot believe it’s been 3 years!)…back then (as now) Andrew was Mr. Explorer and his mom & dad rocked my world because they were so in tune & in love with nature.  I adored getting to know them.  It was a great time…

Now imagine my excitement when they booked a session at the waterfall for their family photos this year.   It’s fair to say that I think everyone had a fun time.  I like to think of sessions at the waterfall as mostly a fun experience where a camera happens to be present!  I think Andrew & his dad agree.  Thanks Beth for trusting me with this time in your lives - our guy is growing so fast!  I can hardly believe he’s an almost 6 year old!  And John, I agree - most painless photography session EVER!! :)

Chicago Newborn Photography + Fashionista Friday

Friday, June 5, 2009 at 8:25am

You may remember the beautiful maternity session from several weeks ago that was featured on the blog here.  A & L came to the studio yesterday with their adorable Sebastian and we photographed his newborn session at just six days old.  L looked FABULOUS - she is quite the superwoman!  A was so into fatherhood - I seriously fell in love with how much this couple was in love with their brand new bundle of sweet yummy newbornness. 

Thanks to them for coming out from the North Side of Chicago to my little downtown studio.  We captured so many spectacular newborn lovin’ moments - I am so thrilled to present these few sneak peeks for them!  :)

This scale resided in the back of my closet for a couple + years and finally made its’ appearance yesterday.

I went a bit vintage with this treatment because of the mood of the light I shot in.  Love this shot.

What to Wear to Your Photography Session
