Sunday I had the good fortune to finally photograph E & B’s incredibly good looking bunch. We had a blast playing in the fields & forests, the kids looked simply angelic in their summer whites. It was an incredibly warm day (do we not have in between seasons any more in Chicagoland?), the sun came to visit us all during our late afternoon session. It was the quintessential day.
My umbrella find from 2008 finally made its’ first appearance, according to A here – it was a hit.
I love little L’s freckles! Super adorable.
I still maintain that E steals all the girls’ hearts in his 2nd grade class
Thanks to E & B for coming out to the Studio to have a Marmalade Location session. The day couldn’t have been any more beautiful!
Oh! And big happy birthday wishes to E who is turning the big se7en this week! Happy Birthday guy!

Ahhh, May light. I wax poetic about May light for good reason – it’s one of my favorite months of the year to photograph children & families. The weather is wonderful most of the time – the environment for nature shots is perfect – it’s not too buggy (yet) and the light is fantastic.
Marmalade Photography still has a couple of sessions available for May 2009. Book now before this incredible month gives way to June and the rest of the hot summer. 815.603.8450
They are all lovely but omg Mare… that first one is divine.
Beautiful children? check. Perfect wardrobe? check. Stunning location? check. Fitting accessories/props? check. Gorgeous light? check. Pure Marmaliciousness? Always. ::sigh:: I hope Mom has a whole wall ready for these. I can’t imaging what other gems you have that you didn’t share here on the blog!
