You know how everyone loves fall sessions? Well, let me tell you about this gem of a summer shoot. Picture a sunny July day, fields filled with yellow flowers—it was like stepping into a dream! As a Chicago family photographer and total film enthusiast, I live for these vibrant, happy sessions.

This time, I had the pleasure of capturing a maternity session with an adorable two-year-old and his beaming parents. The flower-filled backdrop was straight out of a painting, swaying gently in the breeze. The colors were so vivid, perfect for capturing on film and bringing that summer feeling to life in every shot.

I love helping families pick outfits that pop against the scenery. Mom’s pink dress looked absolutely stunning against the green grass and vibrant flowers. The photos turned out to be a perfect mix of joyful and heartfelt.

My approach to these sessions? Super laid-back. I schedule shoots around nap times because, let’s face it, happy kids make for the best photos. We roll with whatever the little ones are feeling that day, keeping things spontaneous and fun. Photography shouldn’t feel like a chore—it’s about capturing real moments and making sure everyone has a blast.

During this shoot, we laughed, we played, and we soaked up the sunshine. The little guy’s infectious smiles and his curiosity in the flower field created some of the most precious moments I’ve ever captured. By the end, my cheeks hurt from smiling so much!

So, if you’re in the Chicago area and looking for someone who’s all about colorful family photos, film photography, and making memories that feel genuine and fun, let’s chat! I’m passionate about creating photos that capture your family’s unique energy and joy.
