A modern way to tell your family story
It’s always such a blast when I get to take photos of a family that smiles and laughs continuously. This bunch was full of giggles and smiles all around. It might have been Mom’s tickles or Dad’s slow racing speed but either way it was hard not to get these kids to have a good time.
Do you remember what it’s like to be six? To have the best imagination in the world and focus on the good things life offers, like the tooth fairy and magical kisses that make everything better.
Being six is all about being silly, making the best monster faces you possibly can, and laughing until tears are practically running down your face. I got the privilege to spend time with an awesome dad and daughter a few weeks ago and can honestly say my face hurt from laughing and my heart was swelled with the bond these two share after spending just a few hours with them.

I love surprises; how about you? My husband isn’t always in for surprises but I’m working on him. I figure when kids come along so will all the fun family surprises. Right before Mother’s Day this little family contacted me about doing a surprise photo shoot for some Mother’s Day gifts. I couldn’t resist this cute bunch, can you? We were lucky enough to have the rain stop and the sun come out in the Chicagoland area for a Saturday afternoon a few weeks ago. Spending an afternoon with this family taught me a few things.
1. Bubbles always make things more fun.
2. Having a sister is quite awesome.
3. Give kids an open field and they will run off energy you can only wish you had 30 years their senior.
4. Family photography is such a joy.
