A blog of our current photography work.

James and Judah

Last week I got to photograph my nephews, James and Judah, at their house. I was thrilled because I hadn’t actually met Judah yet because he was born in Colorado in the midst of a pandemic. He is so cute and full of baby goodness! The main goal of the session was to get some photos of the two kids together and it was a bonus if I could get a photo of Judah’s baby teeth coming in. Mission accomplished!! Here’s a few of my favorites from our little session and I can’t wait to deliver these photos!

Gilhooley Family

Congratulations to Ryan and Sara who welcomed their newborn baby Emme into the world a couple of weeks ago. I photographed their wedding in December of 2017 at the Bottom Lounge in Chicago and I was absolutely thrilled when they asked me to come to their home to document their growing family. Emme is so adorable and I loved how they decorated her nursery. Thank you to Ryan and Sara for having me take their family photos and thank you for the 45 Beatles record which I listened to (and had a solo dance party) as I was putting this preview together!

Buonavolanto Family

I just wanted to give a huge shout out to the Buonavolanto family who purchased a family session with us in support of the DuPage Senior Council’s Meals on Wheels program. Meals on Wheels delivers single serving meals to seniors in the area that are home bound. This program is not just about delivering a meal it’s also about connecting with seniors and providing a wellness check. These connections are especially important this year with the pandemic as they are high risk and they become even more isolated because of it. Please consider going to their website and making a donation in support of this program. Thank you the the Buonavolantos for making a donation to Meals on Wheels and having me take their holiday portraits! -Jake

Tate Family

Last week I did some family photos of the Tate’s at their home. It was so great to see them again and to meet their baby Garrett! Garrett wins the award for cutest baby cheeks and their dogs win the award for best ears. A huge thank you to the Tate’s for having me capture some portraits of their family!

Gulyas Family

We are grateful to all the families that have had me take their portraits this year! Our clients are the best including the Gulyas family who had me come to their home for some family photos and newborn portraits of their baby girl. Here’s a few of my favorites from their session.
