Smiles and Sunshine {O’Fallon IL St. Louis Child Photographer}
This sweet girl was full of smiles at our session. I got the impression that she was having a good time! I think we all had a great time – I feel so fortunate to be able to hang out with families who really enjoy each other. Mom and Dad are obviously over the moon in love with their sweet girl. What a beautiful day for a session too. The sun was shining, the temperature was perfect! R. Family – enjoy! I am excited to show you the rest!  

Such a Little Man {O’Fallon IL Child Photographer}
I love, love, love to photograph this little guy. His face is so adorable and he always wears the best clothes. Look at him in his little coat and tie! We had quite a busy session together the other day. Little J. is one fast moving guy these days and only wants to go exploring and is not at all interested in sitting down – at least for more than a half a second or so. But, his mom and I were able to pull a few tricks to get some good “holding still shots”. There are few things that Goldfish crackers can’t fix. R. Family - I hope you enjoy! I’ll be in touch soon!

Fall Color {O’Fallon IL St. Louis Family Photographer}
This family has been planning this portrait session for a long time. We have talked through the the spring and the summer about when to schedule a session for the best fall color. I told mom that it is always kind of a long shot – some years October has great color, other years it really isn’t until November. So, she picked a weekend and we hoped for the best. It turned out that it was the perfect weekend for color. Unfortunately, we did deal with some rain – look close in the family image and you will see raindrops in the lake behind them – but, it didn’t stop us! H. Family – I hope you enjoy! I am excited to show you the rest. Oh, and you will

Tis the Season… {O’Fallon IL Family Photographer}
