Charlie

Last week, I had the opportunity to meet my little client Ciara's Auntie, Uncle and cousin, Charlie. We had a great time in Lincoln Park, playing in the leaves and exploring the all-but-empty zoo. (8:30-9AM on a weekday, man...it's the best time to visit!) Charlie is just the cutest. It was so nice meeting you guys!

Grant

Last year, we mercilessly dressed little Grant up like an elf for his holiday photos. This year, since Grant is older and able to participate in the holiday, Erica and Todd decided to capture the start of a new family tradition: decorating the tree together. I'm pleased to report that only a few beautiful glass ornaments bit the dust during the photo session. (And it was pretty funny. Grant quickly learned that not all ball-shaped things can be easily thrown!) Thanks for another great time! And happy holidays!

Ben and Molly

Mike and I had two really fun holiday sessions this past Sunday. The first was with our little friends Ben and Molly. Ben showed us his favorite Christmas ornaments and Molly played charmingly with twinkle lights. Even Cooper the dog got into the holiday spirit and obligingly cuddled with the family for a few fun shots. Have a fantastic holiday season, Katy and Jason! Thanks for another great time.

Alisa and Kayla Revisited

I just can't get enough of these two little sisters! Alisa and Kayla have just settled into a beautiful new home with their mom and dad and are now getting ready for the holidays. Mike and I got such a kick out of their sweet smiles last Saturday afternoon. Thanks for having us over, Aysem and Robert, and congratulations again on your new place!

Happy Birthday Cooper!

When Mike and I first met this family back in 2009, Logan was 3 months old. Last weekend, we had the pleasure of celebrating his little brother Cooper's first birthday. Over the years, we've had the pleasure of meeting grandparents and extended family and have grown to consider Jeff and Lisa dear friends. Watching Logan and Cooper grow up has been such a joy for us. We love you guys...thanks for having us be a part of Cooper's special day!
