It’s crazy how quickly times go by, I photographed these kids when the twins were just a couple of months old and now they are such big girls (4 yearls old).

Jen is also someone that I highly admire…She works full time, has this gorgeous family and still finds time to go to school to finish her bachelor’s degree.  Thank goodness I got my schooling done before I had the kids, I’m not sure I would want to go back.
Good for you Jen, on doing whatever it takes to achieve your goals!! 

And here’s Jen’s portrait wall gallery, including a 20″ portrait that was taken when the twins were teeny!
Clients love seeing how other’s display their portraits, so thank you for sharing!

I love how determined this Mom was to hang her beautiful family’s portraits.  She had them displayed the same day she picked them up! 

Here’s a photo of how this family created a gallery wall in their home!  I love it!!!

Here’s what Mom said: “They are SO nice. You did a fabulous job Margaret! I was so paranoid we’d never get them up and then they would somehow get ruined! We were up til midnight.”

Thanks Nicole…you guys did a fabulous job with your gallery!

A beautiful family from LaGrange, IL…I love when families bring in their pets for a session.  Now that we have a puppy of our own..
I couldn’t image a family portrait without him!

Remember Michael who was featured on this blog for his newborn session?  You can find the feature by clicking here.  Well, he came back with his lovely sisters for another portrait session.  They finally got the little boy they all dreamed of!!

And beautiful sister Brooke was in a few months earlier for her First Holy Communion Portraits:

And here are some samples of how our clients decorate their homes wtih their portrait art:  First is a 30″ portrait of all the kids together with some smaller accents on each side.  The second image is a 20″ portrait of the girls from an older session and Brooke’s Communion storyboard, and the third is a collection of small prints sized 8×10 and 5×7 displayed beautifully on a dresser with images from many previous sessions…I love how this looks!! What a great way to display all those small prints from your previous collections!!! 

Thanks for the inspiration Lisa!

Last time I photographed this beautiful family was when there were only 3 darling girls and Sadie was just a teensy baby.  And here we are today with the addition of precious Noelle.  And what a happy baby she is…I think my cheeks were starting to hurt from all the smiling I was doing in response to all of Noelle’s smiling!!!

This session was primarily for Sadie and Noelle, as it was time for their spot in the limelight.  The greatest thing about the portrait above is that we have Sadie (on the right) actually smiling.  She made us all work hard for that smile as she is mostly a serious gal, but we were triumphant!  Here is a portrait that’s more like her….   Looking into that thoughtful beautiful face makes me wonder what deep thoughts are inside her little head.

And here are a few more of happy little Noelle…her smiles really are so contagious!!  ♥
