It’s winter in Illinois.

Most people don’t want sessions outside in the middle of winter in Illinois.

I love a family who braves the elements!!

This session was during Christmas week.

Daughters and grandbabies were in town for the holidays.

So this was the perfect time for a session.

An absolutely gorgeous family – inside and out.

There are some perks to winter sessions…

great lighting

awesome accessories – boots, scarves, great coats

a photographer with an open schedule

If you’re brave like this family – let me know – I love winter sessions.

This family session was in the fall but I was unable to post because it was a surprise for Mom and Dad.

This was a fun session.

Great ideas from the family, up for anything, lots of laughter.

I love my job!!
