The Squishiest Baby Ever {newborn portraits, Lindenhurst, IL}
Would you believe it if I said that I actually did Mama’s senior pictures several years ago?? And now she’s a beautiful mommy to a beautiful little girl. A tiny, itty bitty scrap of a thing that was an absolute angel the entire session. I’m not kidding. I think I heard her squawk once for about two seconds. I didn’t even really have to break out my patented “get this baby to sleep and fast!” move!
I’ve been wanting to try some shots like this for a while now, and am so happy I had the opportunity to do so with this family. They turned out even better than I envisioned them!
Without further ado, I give you, Baby A…
Thanks, Carley & Todd, for letting me play & for trusting me with the memories of your brand new baby girl!
Until next time,

I love, love, love when I get a call-back from a previous client. For one thing, it tells me that they enjoyed my work enough to want to welcome me into their homes again! There’s no greater compliment than that. For another, and the reason that I love the most: I get to see how their child(ren) have grown.
Jessica and Shane welcomed a beautiful baby boy into the world, along with big sister Vivian.
Thank you, Jessica & Shane, for trusting me to capture your little ones again!
Until next time,

Barns & Babies
Alright, alright – pick your jaws up off the ground. I told you I was going to be updating more!! Before we get caught up with the past year’s sessions, I wanted to post this as a little peek for Mom before her gallery goes up.
This precious lil’ baby was my last session of 2010. When we did Mom’s maternity, it was a beautiful day outside, and I fell in love with the landscape immediately.
I had dreams (yes, I really dreamt about it) of the baby out by the barn, with the soft skin against the rustic background. Yeah, well, Mother Nature completely squashed my dreams and made it cold and snowy and cold. Did I mention cold? *sigh* Regardless, even without the rustic barn, this baby was beautiful all snuggled up in soft blankets and wraps.
Cheryl, I hope you enjoyed that little sneak peek of your beautiful baby girl! She was such a good little subject, even if she was awake for more than half the session!
Until next time,
Brianne
