The ZamZow Family

I'm thankful that I get to meet the most lovely families when I take photos.  The day I met the Zamzow family at Lincoln Landing in Lockport (which is a lovely spot for fall pics, by the way), it was so chilly!  But look at their little trooper who smiled all the way through!  I love his cute little smile.  /*! elementor - v3.7.8 - 03-10-2022 */ .elementor-widget-image{text-align:center}.elementor-widget-image a{display:inline-block}.elementor-widget-image a img[src$=".svg"]{width:48px}.el[...]

Sanders, Marcordes & Jones Families

If you can get grandparents, their kids, and[...]

Beautiful Morning Photo Session at a forest preserve in Mokena IL
