I love it when the “adult kids” come home for a session with their parents! These full family shots are such keepsakes. I love looking back at shots of my own family from when I was a kid. When I’m out and about, people often tell me, “I’m going to call you for a session after I _____” (insert: lose weight, get a tan, get a haircut, etc.). Here’s my advice: don’t wait! Take a picture of YOU, NOW. If you become even more amazing in a year, we’ll do the session again! 
I am always going on about how newborn photos should be taken within the first two weeks, but I have to eat my words here. This little guy was six weeks old, and the best. baby. ever. He slept when we wanted him to sleep, was awake when we wanted him awake, and there were no, um, accidents related to being diaperless. We were finished in about an hour, which I think is world record time for a newborn. I wish I could post his name here, because I adore it, but I don’t like using first names on the blog.

Gazing into momma’s eyes…
Nighty-night!
His blue eyes are stunning. I did his brother’s newborn pictures a few years ago, and he had the same gorgeous eyes.
More momma love…
We photographed yet another stunning senior girl this month! This time, we headed over to Sterling, IL, at the Dillon home. I love this location as it has a huge variety of settings in which to use.
