Be silly. Be fun.

Be different. Be authentic.

Be YOU, because life is too short to be anything else.

Maternity and Newborn photographer

Downers Grove

and beyond

In home lifestyle photography naturally lends itself to newborn sessions. Think stunning, true-to-life crib and bassinet shots, candid moments and of course, plenty of shots with mom, dad, big brothers and sisters and even family pets. And, while they seem mundane now, some creative “every day” shots—changing the diaper (from a distance!), bathing, feeding, rocking and playing will be moments you’ll look back on in just a few short months, and be glad you captured these moments for life.
