Classic, Like Coco Channel

I was so excited to shoot Coco as I shot her sister last year. Coco Chiliax's attitude made her so easy and fun to photograph. She's a cute one!

I loved Shea's style

Shea's style was very her, unique and almost cultural or safari-like. Is that a word? It is now. Anyway, I loved it! What a great photo shoot to end my week of shoots, loved the light, loved the bike from the Green store on Washington Street. What lucky girls we were, great light, great bike.




Anna is so Gorgeous!

Check out this beautiful girl. I love this shot with the pearls. I also loved hanging out with Anna and her crew, I loved Anna's mom, and really enjoyed hearing and seeing what an awesome mom she is. I loved having Anna's friend with us, it made for more fun, more happy and more love to capture.


Jessica's Sofia Session is super fun just like her cousin Julia

I love that girls are so happy with my work that they tell all their friends about me, because then I get to photograph everyones friends! So one of my girls from last year Julia shared with her cousin about and so I got to photograph her. I loved hearing about what a close knit family Jessica comes from, I loved hearing about their boat and lots of memories they make each summer in the sun. My parents used to have a boat in Texas so I could totally relate to all that fun, sure we wished we were boating, but we were busy with our shoot. What a beautiful girl!



Nisha is a natural

Nisha from Bolingbrook, a referral from my girl Joy, was a natural when she showed up with her mom. She seemed to just have an ease when she moved, and she seemed to just have fun. She is so beautiful!



Molly ... Moll Doll.

It's very fun to have a client with your very same name for sure. There were moments when I got confused about who was talking to who. And moments when it thrilled me to and was fun to hear Molly's mom say Moll Doll. When I lived in Texas, everyone called me Moll Doll, but not even my parents still keep it up here. I love Molly's session. And I loved seeing her sweet relationship with her mom, you always can tell, the apple doesn't fall to far from the tree.




Nicole is a sweet one

Anna my make up artist had the in with Nicole because Nicole had gone to school with Anna's son's since they were tiny, so it was super fun to hear their stories while Anna did her hair. Nicole's session rocked, I loved hanging out with her supportive mom, and talking and chatting about our common interests and fun summer memories. What a fun girl!



Sporty Liz makes her high fashion debut

Liz is a busy girl! And really so am I, so we really had to work to get in this summer, but we got her in! Liz's talents in Volleyball is something to admire, as I was never the sporty girl, but I sure do wish I was more of one. Check out her cute style!

Not even a little rain...

Brieanne's session was so fun not even unpredicted rain in the middle of it kept us from having fun. I love that I got to use my new backdrops that Anna and I made personally. Brieanne's style and personality lit up all around us, as she put on her favorite dresses with great colors. This was another sporty girl that just rocked it and worked it when it came to the camera. Nice work girl, I can't wait to photograph your sister!



Chelsea scored big!

For those of you that know Chelsea, she'd probably rather have a soccer ball in her hand or in her control on the field than do a photo shoot with me. But check out this players beauty and classic style in the fashion world, nice eh? Chelsea was so cute and sweet to work with and I could tell she was really getting into it too. I seriously work with the best people!




Katie is gonna have her name in lights

I am pretty sure that one day Katie's name will be in lights and all of us will pay big bucks to see her sing. Although that might sound crazy amazing to some us, Katie's spirit and her down to earth sweetness is not phased. She's pretty awesome! I got to hang out with her, eat ice-cream, flag down a UPS man and have fun thinking about what a cool album cover some of her photo's would make. Be watching out for this one! Course, for those of you that know me I love country so you all know I'll try to get into the front row!
