Raffaella | Vernon Hills Newborn Photographer

Please meet beautiful Raffaella, who came to see me on her 21st day of life; exactly at the 3 week mark! Her mommy was so worried that she wouldn’t do well, and boy did Raffe show her! 🙂 She was the absolute best baby ever!! I really wanted to keep her and pose her all day long LOL. She had the most relaxed hands and just posed so well!! I first met her parents when I did their maternity session this past summer, and as you can see here, Raffe’s mommy is absolutely stunning herself, so it was a given that her little princess would be as pretty as her.. What a joy she was to have in the studio..

Ari | Palatine IL Newborn Photographer

Meet handsome Ari. Mr Ari surprised everyone, and made his debut a month early! So when I was able to finally meet him when his parents brought him to the studio, he was 4 weeks old. I met his mommy and daddy when I did their maternity session back in the Fall, and they are the sweetest family ever, I knew Ari’s session was going to be a good one from the beginning! When I first started working with Ari he did try to resist sleep 🙂 but only for a little while, and once he was sleep, he slept like a log! What a sweetheart he was, and he gave me some of the biggest smiles I have ever seen on a newborn, especially when I put him in his elf outfit 😉 He even giggled out loud! Ari is a proud Canadian-American too, so it was my pleasure and honor to use the two flags that his mom brought in for me to incorporate in his session… Loved him!

Owen | Chicago IL Newborn Photographer

Meet Owen! My third client in a row whose name starts with an “O” 🙂 Owen came to see me on his 6th day of life, he actually is the youngest client I have seen this year! He did SO good, and slept the entire time from start to finish and only woke up towards the end of the session, just in time for the parents shots! He was so sweet, I truly could have kept him! What an amazing job he did… And tis’ the season to put all of my December babies in Christmas outfits, it’s my absolute favorite, and Owen looked SO cute in his little Christmas PJs.. I love it! 🙂

Ocean | Chicago Illinois Newborn Photography

Meet beautiful, beautiful Ocean. I first met her parents when we did their maternity session, and boy did we get that session done on time! Miss Ocean came five days later! 🙂 I was really excited to meet her, and I knew before they stepped foot in the studio that it would be a good session. She was so sleepy!! Pure perfection! She did wake up once to eat, but that was maybe only 5 minutes; once her belly was full, she got back to work! I love it when I am working with the babies, and I can just take moments during the session and gaze at them, at how perfect these little beings are! And one of my favorite moments of her session? The beautiful picture I got to take of her with her big brother and big sister (last picture featured below)… Melts my heart. Oh what I wouldn’t give to be able to go back in time, and capture a sweet picture like that of my own three babies… I am so grateful that I get to do this everyday and to call this my job!! I simply adore what I do, and the images of these precious little beings are my reward. Huge thank you to Ocean’s parents for choosing me as their photographer! She was the perfect little baby model 🙂

Julian | Chicago IL Newborn Photographer

Meet handsome Julian. Julian came to see me on his 18th day of life! He made his arrival a few weeks earlier than planned, he was still so tiny that it all worked itself out perfectly. Mr Julian did have a little feistiness in him, but once he fell into his deep sleep he pretty much let me get thru the setups. What a sweet, curly-haired, little boy..
