Are you looking for just “one picture?” Or just a couple for the Christmas card - then this will be the event for you.
A ONE DAY event with super mini MINI sessions is HERE!
Sessions include a 20-minute indoor, Christmas-inspired photoshoot at the Hinsdale studio.
As much as I love summer, I know some of you are already dreaming of the rich colors, cozy outfits and autumn family session cuddles. Maybe even planning the, dare I say it, Christmas card!?!? Ahhhhh!
The fall schedule is open! Inquire for dates and availability.
Fall sessions move faster than the wind and like the colorful leaves - once they're gone, they're gone!
The lazy days of summer are upon us... Wait! Who am I kidding!? Lazy days?! Doesn't it seem like summer flies by way too fast!?!? I swear time speeds up as the temperatures rise.
So, better to book your family session before it goes the way of white pants after Labor Day... gone.
Summer is an awesome time to capture the fun and carefree essence of a family session. Think flowing dresses and crisp clean colors bathed in golden sunlight. Ahhhhh... I can see it now!
Do you ever have a feeling that you could be taking better pictures of your kiddos? Do you wish you remembered to pull your camera out more often? Are you interested in brushing up your photography skills while documenting your family? Shoot Along, a year-long photography project for parents, is here to help!
Registration Opens: April 24th
Classes Start: May 1st
Shoot Along was born the day that Amy Tripple and Heidi Peters, two Chicagoland photographers, realized they were falling behind on their goal of photographing their own families. In 2014, Amy and Heidi founded ShootAlong.com, an online photography project designed to give structure and accountability to busy parents of ALL photography levels.
What began as a personal project has grown into a powerful, worldwide movement, offering support and motivation to parents in over thirty countries and six continents! Shoot Along empowers parents in two ways:
Photography Instruction: Week-by-week photography lessons delivered by email. Learn new concepts, build on your existing skills, or embrace topics as inspiration to remain technically and creatively open-minded!
A Supportive Online Community: The Shoot Along Facebook Group is a supportive online community moderated by Deanne and Rebecca, two professional photographers. Members connect & share photography throughout the year.

Stumped on what to get "ma" for Mother's Day??? Ok, I got ya covered!
Mom WANTS TO BE IN PHOTOS WITH HER BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN that she loves more than life itself. Trust me on this one! As mamas, most of us spend all of our time behind the lens capturing the moments to remember them when we're old and gray. It is a precious thing when we get to be featured in the photos and relish the connection we have with our little stinkers...and... look good doing it!!!
That's where I come in. Pick up a gift card, good for a future session or gallery purchase. We can schedule the date another time. But get mama something you know she would love - images to cherish WITH you.
Spring is in the air! And the flowers are starting to POP! Let's celebrate a season of hope, change and color together! This is a perfect opportunity to capture some precious moments of discovery and joy in the great outdoors.
