What an honor to photograph my best friend and her beautiful family at a lovely spot in Joliet.
There was a girl I knew years ago who was in the youth group at Calvary Church in Naperville. I was one of the youth leaders there at the time and she was in my group. We became friends and had lots of fun talking, singing together, riding around in my jeep, and just hanging out. She actually sang at my wedding!!Courtney was one in a million, that's for sure, and it was an honor for me to have her in my group.Now, she is a mom herself with a loving husband and three beautiful kids. Her friendship was a bles[...]
I loved taking these photos of dear friends of our from church. This wonderful family simply couldn't be any cuter. Love them!
With the memory of an exciting pirate party fresh in her mind, this little cutie was all fun and giggles when her family and I met for photos in Frankfort IL. They had just celebrated her 3rd birthday and thought some family pictures would be a great way to help celebrate the occasion! 🎂 Oh, she was silly, wacky and wonderful...and it was so much fun to take photos of her as she shared cuddles from mom, dad and grandma!!

I had just dropped my youngest off at his friend's house for a playdate. I was backing up to leave the area where I had parked when I suddenly heard a terrible **crunch** sound. What in the world?!?! I got out of my van and realized I had backed into a tall light pole on their property!!! How did I not see that?!? I hurried back to the house where I nervously told the family what I had done. Were they mad? Did they throw a fit about it? No...instead, they apologized for the damage to our van! What[...]
"Surely, two of the most satisfying experiences in life must be those of being a grandchild or a grandparent." Donald A. Norber I got to see this first-hand when I met the Blecke's at Pilcher Park in Joliet. What a joy it is to watch the love grandparents shower on their grandkids! This grandma (aka 'Mimi') is truly smitten by her beautiful little grand daughters! 💕 [...]

In December of 2016, a lovely couple got married and had their wedding photos taken in a beautiful forest preserve in Palos Heights IL. There was snow all around. One year later, this couple wanted to revisit that spot for photos and include their four beautiful dogs - three huskies and a schih tzu! And for these photos, they really wanted snow on the ground - just like they had for their wedding photos. A great idea!! The only problem? We were well into December and we hadn't gotten snow yet. Cold? [...]
Well, I hope everyone had a wonderful new year celebration! This is the second day of 2018 and I'm getting caught up on some things - like my updates to this site! It's been very nice to take some days off during the holiday season. I had a wonderful Christmas and hope you did as well! Now, as a new year is starting, I pray that the Lord will bless and keep you all in his care each day of 2018.Near the end of November (Black Friday to be exact), I had the pleasure of meeting the MacFarlane family for a phot[...]
Well, Thanksgiving week just passed and my kids have (with great sadness) gone back to their regular school schedules. These days have been surprisingly busy for me and I've been taking much too long to post highlights from the photo session a few weeks ago of a dear family at our church who is expecting their fourth little one. Finally, though, here are the highlights!We met for photos on a chilly, wet day. Because of this, we were very thankful for the Bird Haven Greenhouse at Pilcher Park in Joliet - a war[...]
