Grace | Celebrity Newborn Photographer in Chicago IL

Meet adorable Grace, who came to see me in her third week of life! At 21 days old, she was at the cutoff that I usually take newborns, but being born under 5lbs, her mom, NBC Chicago traffic anchor Marley Kayden preferred to wait a little longer before getting her photos done, something that I absolutely understand and also encourage when the babies are born underweight. And in these cases, when the teeny babies come see me around 3 weeks, they are still just as sleepy, and Grace was no exception. She was a rockstar sleeper!

Dia | Oak Lawn IL Newborn Photographer

Meet beautiful Dia, that came to see me for her newborn session! Most times, I get the newborn sessions done the very first time, but every now and then, it happens when for a reason or another, my newborn clients have a “false start” and we have to reschedule the session to another day. Out of my 7 year career, this has happened 5 times. Dia was one of of them and the second time I saw her, as with all of my reschedules, the session went SO well. She was as sleepy as she could be and was absolutely perfect. Her mom, who is the owner of Nicole Marie Salon, had the vision for the photo below since she found out that she was having a girl, and this photo ended up being one of my most talked about photo! People are obsessed with how cute Dia looks in it! I have to agree 😉 This was a difficult pose to create and she let me pose her without making a peep! She knew how much her mama wanted it, I say! I am so happy with how the session came together in the end, and Dia’s mom now has the photos she dreamed of so of her beautiful baby girl, and that’s all that counts! Mission accomplished 🙂 Congratulations to this amazing family of 4!

Ade | Chicago IL Best Newborn Photographer

Meet handsome Ade (name is pronounced “ah-day”) who came to see me on his 10th day Earth side. What. a. sweetheart! When his parents gave him to me I could already see how sleepy he was, and as soon as I started posing him, he gave me the biggest smile that you see right here! I had so many frames to choose from, it was if he wanted to make sure I got it 🙂 after that we moved on so smoothly, he was just so perfect! He was the best model and was so good to me. As I was posing him I would talk to him and thank him for being so sweet to me and would call him “snuggle bug” because he would curl right in my arms when I would hold him. At the end of the session we were able to get some shots with Ade’s parents, and his big brother, who is only 16 months older than him. He did a really good job too, I was extremely proud of him. And he was a handsome lil guy too, with his blue eyes and red hair!! Congratulations to this beautiful family!

Ade’s parents brought in most of his props (including the gorgeous leather teddy bear by Coach), but the lace items used in his session are by the only prop knitter I trust, The Knitting Bitty. All items are perfection and the exact size to fit any newborn!

Raina | Woodlawn Newborn Photographer

Meet beautiful little miss Raina, who came to see me on her 11th day of life! Raina, I have to say, was the absolute best newborn baby girl ever, her skin was so flawless, not one peel, not one baby acne bump… I didn’t even have to edit it! She was so sleepy and I jokingly told her parents that if there was a description of what the perfect newborn to pose is, her photo would be right next to it! She was “textbook” newborn! From her relaxed fingers that didn’t clinch, to her perfectly folded legs… I truly could have posed her for hours!! She is such a calm little soul. What a perfect session that was!

Sheldon | Chicago IL Newborn Photographer

How about this little love muffin right here?!! Handsome Sheldon came to see me on his 8th day of life, and man oh man, I could have kept this little guy! He was so squishy and huggable, and was an absolute sleepy head! I photographed his big sister Skylar for her newborn session, AND cake smash session (click on both links to see those) she was like a Gerber baby so I knew Sheldon would be the same, and he didn’t disappoint! From his relaxed fingers to his back rolls, Sheldon was the perfect little model and his gallery shows it. Congratulations to this beautiful family of 4, and I can’t wait to see Sheldon grow into a big kid! 🙂
