A blog of our current photography work.

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.

Doherty Family

I’m still squeezing in a few more outdoor sessions this month! I did photos for the Doherty family last week at one of my favorite spots in the area, Fullersburg Woods. It was wonderful spending an hour with them and getting all the different family groupings (and some candids, too!). I can’t wait to show them all the photos. This session was a birthday present for their mom. Happy Birthday!!

Colton and Val

Colton and Val were originally going to have their wedding back in July and rescheduled for the first weekend in November. Strangely enough we had almost summer-like weather! They had their small outdoor ceremony on a little island on pond at the Smith Horse Farm in Kankakee. It’s no secret that I love backyard weddings and when the client’s backyard is a horse farm I am in heaven! Here’s a few highlights from Colton and Val’s wedding: working for the Smith family again, horses, a sunny AND warm November day, Colton’s cowboy hat, Val’s turquoise necklace, and all the smiles! I knew it was going to be an amazing day when I arrived and the ring bearers were fishing. Congrats to Colton and Val! I had the best time photographing their wedding ceremony!!

Kunitz Family

The Kunitz family sneaked in their fall family portraits on one of those freak summer-like days we had last week. They mentioned that they do family photos every year and I could tell as they were super easy to pose and they seemed to read my mind of what I was trying to do. Thanks for choosing Two Birds Photography to do your pictures this year!
