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

Adelman Family

The other day I did some family photos for the Adelman family in Chicago. This year they wanted to get the city skyline in some photos so we met a Belmont Harbor. It was a perfect sunny late November day (even if it was a bit chilly). I always have a great time photographing the Adelmans!

Hannah and Sam

It’s getting cold out there but I’m still doing portrait sessions! Hannah and Sam took advantage of the beautiful November sunlight and met me at Ty Warner Park for a few engagement photos. I think their intention was really just to get some photos with their new fur baby Walter. It was great to see Hannah and Sam (and meet Walter) and I can’t wait to photograph their wedding next December at Revolution Brewing in Chicago!

Bailey Family

The Baileys contacting me a couple of weeks ago because they wanted to get some portraits done in celebration of their college graduation. The siblings all graduated back in May but with everything shut down they really didn’t get a chance to commemorate it. So I met with them downtown Downers Grove to get some photos of them in their grad gear and took some regular family photos at the same time. Congrats to the Baileys and a thank you to them for having me take their portraits!

Siwek Family

A few days ago I met up with the Siwek family at their home for some portraits of their family. They had finished decorating their home for Christmas just in time for their pictures! I had a great time spending an hour with them and making some memories. I especially love the photo of their little boy hanging ornaments on the tree!
