This darling farm girl was born during harvest season last year, and another harvest will be here soon (I hear it’s going to be fast and furious this year – so stay safe out there in the fields, all you farmers!!)… which means the year has flown by and I can’t believe she’s almost one...

little girls are great! | champaign family photographer
I have to admit that I’m a bit partial to families with two girls, since my family is also in the 2-girl club… and these two girls were absolutely perfect during their family session a few weeks ago!! Even though it was the middle of their normal naptime, they were happy and smiley and excited...
sweet little guy | mahomet newborn photographer
I had a great time meeting this family a few weeks ago at their home in Mahomet — and with all the random connections and common friends we discovered we have, it’s actually a wonder that we’ve never met before! Their darling boy was so sleepy during his newborn session… what a sweetheart. Thanks for...
deliciously messy | savoy child photographer
First birthday photography sessions are always so much fun! Whether the kiddo loves the cake or wants nothing to do with it, smash-the-cake sessions are sure to give mom and dad lots of laughs! This darling girl had a blast getting completely messy, and her parents and grandparents had a blast watching it happen. Thanks...

Last weekend I had a fun first birthday Sweet Pea Photography session with this cutie pie and her lovely family. Even though she wasn’t thrilled with the cake (more afraid than enamored, unfortunately), her big sister was ready and willing to help eat it to make sure it didn’t go to waste after all...
super sweet siblings | mahomet family photographer
These gorgeous blue-eyed siblings were so much fun during their Sweet Pea Photography mini-session a few weeks ago! It was a real pleasure meeting their family for the first time, and I think they had a fun time playing in the leaves at the U of I Arboretum — thanks for making the drive over...
a beautiful day in the neighborhood | champaign family photographer
Remember that song from Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood? “It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood, a beautiful day for a neighbor – would you be mine? Could you be mine?” Well, it was certainly a beautiful day for our family photography session last Saturday, and although this family isn’t technically my neighbor – I feel like...
little princess | monticello child photographer
It has been lots of fun watching this darling girl grow up over the past year – and even though she is a serious little thing, she got the giggles at the end of her session last week, watching her daddy bonk himself in the head with a balloon! Oh, the silly things that dads...
autumn kisses | champaign family photographer
Last Saturday turned out to be a great morning for Sweet Pea Photography mini-sessions, and the rain even waited until we were all finished. Hooray! It was a treat to see this cutie pie again, and I think she’s gotten even cuter since her newborn session several months ago. I love watching kids grow and...
hooray for sunshine! | farmer city family photographer
I had a wonderful SUNNY session with this family in Farmer City last weekend, after a cold rainy week of crossing our fingers and praying for sunshine! I love it when prayers (even little ones about the weather) are answered! Since it was still chilly, we decided to do the session at their home and...
