Ceres

It's time for adorable Ceres once again! I just love all her expressions.

She wasn't quite sure what to make of me yet.










Munching on mom's cheek






so cute!

Caroline

Caroline is one!

She was in quite the serious mood for a while, which I was enjoying.


Her little hair curl was adorable.


Back to the changing table, where I've shot her since she was a newborn!


Mom really wanted to put her in this adorable dress, but she's such a tiny little girl that she was completely swimming in it. Maybe when she's 2 she'll fit into it!


Playground time!












Mom and dad told me she loved to push this little scooter around, which she certainly did!

Sophia and Lydia

Sweet Sophia and Lydia are full of energy and so much fun to photograph! These two girls are the children of my dear friend Heather and her husband Michael. I spent a couple fun days with them in Kentucky.

I was getting dizzy just watching Sophia as she spun around as fast as possible.


I can now add fencing with sticks while photographing to my résumé


The girls decided their beaded necklace would look lovely on the kitty. I agree.






Lydia is ready to work, pink polka dotted boots and all!




mom and Aunt Michelle comforting Sophia


sisterly cuteness!


weeeeee!!!

Jen, James, and Piper

A few family photos of one of my oldest friend, Jen, with her husband and little daughter. This was the first time I was able to meet Piper, and what a little cutie she is!

Lincoln Park Zoo familiy portrait

Off to the zoo! My friend Ande hired me to photograph her and her parents, and we had a great time! Lots of laughter on this session.

baby Caroline

Caroline has returned!







Such a happy baby!


I love this expression she's giving me














Squish the baby!
