Families

Spring Family Session, Wheaton Illinois, Northside Park. Mom is standing behind daughter, lifting her, laughing at her. Family is standing next to each other, looking and smiling at each other.

When she makes her first steps. When he starts to wanting to do everything by himself. When she gets her first wiggly tooth or learns how to ride her bike. Have you ever felt like they’re growing up too fast? The days feel long but the years feel short?

Looking back, these will be the times you never want to forget. Those are the times that make my heart dance. All the life stages in itself are so special, are gone so fast and deserve to be captured. 

Your Storey deserves to be told

If you are a lover of light and glowy photos and would like to be able to keep those sweet sweet memories for generations to come, then you’re at the right place! You having an awesome experience with me means the world to me! That said, I will be guiding through the whole process from your first inquiry, over our session together up until the gallery delivery and beyond.

Your due date will come faster than you think. Make sure to think about booking your maternity session on time.

Newborn

Newborns are such a precious gift from God! So innocent! Until the poopy diaper explodes in the middle of a restaurant, the day you forgot the diaper bag at home, am I right!? Newborns can sometimes be a little hard to plan around. That’s what I love about them! My newborn sessions are considered in-home lifestyle sessions. Imagine lifestyle sessions as sweet spot between solely documentary photography and traditional posed photography. With lifestyle photography, I will lay out the photo just right, guide the positions, but will then let the baby do its natural thing. If awake or asleep. Your newborn will run the show. I want this to be as stress free and relaxed as possible for the baby and for you, because I know that that season can be challenging at times. Time can so easily slip through our hands, especially when those cute little faces start to change every day. The best time to capture those baby cheeks, is within about their first 2 weeks of life. That’s why I recommend you book your newborn session in your second trimester.
