These two beautiful ladies made this shoot soooo much fun!  Celebrating sisterhood and babies-to-be (yes, one of these lovlies was prego) and the total GORGEOUSNESS that they both have going on! A few of the G-Rated shots...

Chasing Chace

DEERFIELD PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER

Some shots from my session with the Cochrans...Chace is every bit of BOY you could ever hope to witness!! It was a hoot to watch his mom & dad try to wrangle him.  He runs and falls and gets back up like it never happened.  He is fearless and full of energy and just FUN to be around!  Soooo ridiculously happy!!  It was no easy task to keep up with him...and I only had to try for an hour!  I did manage to find a moment or two of him at rest...which allowed for shots like this...

In early 2012 Chace will be a big brother!! A few early maternity shots to celebrate!!

JIT Maternity Session...

CHICAGO MATERNITY PHOTOGRAPHER

Mother Nature has been a bit of a beast this year. Beast may be kind.  The thermostat actually read in the 50's at one point today.  MID-JUNE.  What??  Crazy low temps are one thing...all this rain is a bit harder to swallow.  Outdoor sessions are a wash (awful unintentional pun) when it rains!  Such was the case with Amy & Matt's maternity session.  I think we had to reschedule a few times over...we were so lucky that the third time was a charm, because little Lucy arrived not long after this shoot! Congrats on your new arrival Amy & Matt!!

SO NEAT...the "Y" wasn't tipped to the side like that the whole time. As I was clicking away I saw Amy's tummy jut out all of a sudden...an elbow, a foot, a hand...?! It was definitely something.  I like to think Miss Lucy was sending us a message.  You see, Amy & Matt opted to keep the sex a surprise...therefore we did shots with both their boy and girl names.  She was in there all "heeeeeey....it's meeee...LUCY!! I am no boy!! This is the right name! And I'm ready to make an appearance so this shoot is just in time..."
