Hi, I’m Summer, a Downers Grove based lifestyle photographer specializing in maternity, newborn, children and family photography. I work with growing families and couples who want images that feel natural, relaxed and genuinely them. My sessions are designed to be easy, comfortable and fun, whether we are photographing your newborn at home, your family outdoors, or one of your kids milestones in our studio. I proudly serve Downers Grove, Hinsdale, Western Springs, La Grange, Glen Ellyn, Wheaton, and the surrounding western suburbs of Chicago.
Let’s create something beautiful together!

Be silly. Be fun.
Be different. Be authentic.
Be you.

No one wants boring photos
You are unique. You’re an expecting mama, a new parent, a seasoned pro, a stay-at-home rockstar, or a hardworking parent juggling it all. And you deserve photos that celebrate your real moments, not stiff poses and forced smiles. Your family’s story is anything but ordinary, so why settle for cookie-cutter portraits?
As a Downers Grove photographer I know that the best portraits come from genuine moments, full of love, laughter, and the beautiful chaos that makes your life yours. With a fun, relaxed session, we’ll capture authentic, timeless images that you’ll be proud to hang on your walls.
Let’s make magic together!
