Lifestyle photo of the day – Laquanna’s Maternity

I am always excited to do different types of photography sessions (weddings, headshots, family, baby, etc.). But I have rarely had the chance to do maternity portraits.

I did a lifestyle family portrait session at our Elmwood Park photography studio last week. It was my 2nd time photographing the Boyd family. I love it when families come back for more sessions!

Irene’s headshots

Irene was referred to me by her son Matt, whose wedding I am photographing in October. She needed some new headshots for website and book Love’s Eternal Marriage, Bridging Heaven and Earth. Between her great personality and perfect outfit, I think we captured some great headshots.

Running around with Riley and Bosco!

I recently headed to Janine’s house to photograph her with her two chocolate labs, Riley and Bosco. To say they gave Janine and myself a workout is being nice! But Janine was able to keep up with them more easily than me and in the end, we tired them out!

Portrait session with Jody

Jody came into our studio a few weeks ago to get some portraits of herself. It was fun to capture her personality in some casual headshots, but also get her more dressed up for a more fashion look.
