The Prins Family – Lockport Photographer

October 22, 2018

It's always exciting to try out a new place for photos (new to me, anyway 😉). I love when places look like they're so secluded and far away from the world...while they're actually just off a busy street! To me, some of the photos below look like we traveled to old ruins in a far-off jungle, but in actuality, frisbee golf enthusiasts are playing nearby while other park visitors (and other photographers) are milling about just doing their thing on a nice Sunday afternoon. I love it! Thanks to the Prins fam[...]

My family photos…

October 22, 2018

What a weekend our family had! Friday night, my husband and I played shuffleboard in Chicago for the first time while our kids stayed with Nana (Shuffleboard was really fun!). We got home later than we had anticipated, so the kids and I were a bit tired for a Junior Bible Quiz meet we had early Saturday out in Naperville, but we were fine. I was very proud of our JBQ team and how it did overall. I love JBQ (and Teen Bible Quiz) and am so happy my kids are involved in it at our church. So - after church yes[...]

The Xenidis Family – Lockport Family Photo Session

October 21, 2018

I always love seeing my old friends and neighbors, the Xenidis Family! When my family lived in Frankfort, our driveway was was right across the street from theirs, so we had many opportunities to just visit with each other and chat as the kids played. I miss that, so I'm thankful I still get to see them each year for family photos!! Their beautiful kids are growing up so quickly...[...]

The Kojro-Badziak Family – Frankfort IL Photo Session

October 4, 2018

This lovely mom scheduled her family's photo session as a little birthday present to herself (a great idea, I must say!!). But she had another really special reason she wanted these photos taken of her family...someday, she wants her little boy to see them for a very specific reason:"I would like some of the photos to show my son's trach, and g-tube as well...not a lot, but some.I want him to know, years from now, what a brave little rock-star he was/is.In a couple years, if all goes well, they will both be remov[...]

The Neuhaus Kids – Frankfort IL Photographer

August 27, 2018

A hockey player, a gymnast, and an ice skater...I've known these awesome kids for about seven years (we used to be neighbors!) and, looking at them now, I can't believe how accomplished they are at such a young age. My kids have missed them since we moved and I have missed talking and laughing with their mom at the bus stop! 😂 Needless to say, I'm happy we still get to see them from time to time. It will be so exciting to see where life takes these wonderful, talented kids...[...]

The Malone Family – Forest Preserve Family Photos in St. Charles IL

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[...]

"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!
