J'S SENIOR PICTURES

I was J's Youth Conference Mom 4 years ago and I can't believe how much he's grown up in the last 4 years. I can't believe he's a Senior in High School already....it's SO crazy to me how fast these kids grow up and become adults!! We had a great time at Cantigny Park and found some fun colorful chairs too!!

THE THORELL FAMILY

I've known this family since our boys were two. We've moved away from each other, but thanks to social media we've remained friends and stayed in contact for all these years. Mom contacted me and told me it's been YEARS since they had family pictures taken and they didn't really like having them done, but she really wanted them. I assured her over and over again that she would love them and that they would look great....and they do!!! I love the location, I love the light. It was a perfect night, and we got some amazing pictures of her and her boys!!

Thank you for letting me capture your family!!!

THE ISREALSEN FAMILY AND JET

I was so excited when this family contacted me to take their family pictures. Their oldest son left for his LDS Mission this morning and I was so happy that I got to capture their family before he left. We decided to meet at their house and I was so happy we had planned to take these literally in her back yard, because dad broke his foot last weekend and couldn't put any weight on his foot.

I LOVE how they turned out!! I can't believe this is their backyard, how lucky are they? They were so fun and dad was so silly....this is one of my very favorites!!! Mom told me they weren't a photogenic family....I beg to differ, I think they are all so photogenic and I had such a hard time picking my favorites, so here are just a few {ok, maybe more than a few!}.
