I am pretty sure that there is no better way to elicit genuine smiles and laughter, than to tell kids “yes” to something, when they were expecting the answer “no.” See exhibit A. “Yes, you can definitely run through the water in your dresses.” (For the record, Mom and Dad told them “yes,” just in...
When I was a kid, we often went for weekend visits to my cousins’ house. They lived far away, so we didn’t get to see them often, but when we did, it was an entire weekend full of fun. Leading up to the trip, I would stay awake late into the night, unable to sleep...
Well, Chicago summer heat is officially here, in full swing. The heat sure didn’t stop us from having a fabulous session, even if Dad was slightly more than miserable in jeans and long sleeves. 😉 So… just as a reminder to all of you scheduling sessions right now- not only do early morning or evening...

It has been approximately an eternity, maybe more, since I have done more than a sneak peek from a session. Well, gotta start somewhere, so why not start with a perfectly perfect summer session- full of beautiful people, beautiful light, and lots and lots of color- my favorite!

Meet Jessie
I love photography; I always have. I remember waiting anxiously at the drugstore so that I could rush home with my new pictures and carefully put them into frames and photo albums.
Even though 20 years have passed and digital cameras changed photography, my feelings and excitement are the same. I still race home after a shoot to look at every image and relive each moment of our session.
My goal is to combine the emotion that I feel with every click of the camera with your family as you actually are: smiling, laughing, even crying. I strive to find the true essence of who you are and capture these moments for you for a lifetime. Your family, as you are, smiling, laughing, even crying, but mainly just being yourselves.
