Lifestyle Family Session: Woodridge, IL

5/5 - (1 vote)

At home lifestyle family session in Woodridge

This family was the absolute best to capture during their lifestyle family session that took place right in the comfort of their home. This was a particularly special session as they were celebrating a few different things. Just a couple months prior to our session, these guys were able to move back into their gorgeous home after it had been torn apart by a tornado 6 months earlier. Woodridge Strong. Moving back, happened just in the knick of time. Shortly after they did, they welcomed a new baby boy into their beautiful family.

A lifestyle home family session seemed like the right choice with all these big life changes. And was it ever! Big brother loved showing me his new room, his new big boy bed (Yay!) and his love for cars. And while being a big brother can be scary, this guy showed me that his love for his brother was far stronger.

I look forward to doing many more family sessions for them in the future!

I just love capturing life’s milestones. If it’s important to you then it’s important to me.

I love seeing reactions like these from moms when they see the back of my camera. I love it even more when it’s a mom watching their senior shine.

Posing with my camera the same way guys pose with fish!
.
Photography is actually a lot more like fishing than you might think.
.
Patience is everything
*similar to fishing, photography can often be about waiting for the right moment. Whether is the perfect light or a natural smile your photographer is sitting, watching and ready.
.
You need the right bait.
* With fishing, it’s worms or lures and photography. It’s the photographers’s prompts or vibe. You have to entice the moment you’re trying to capture… Especially with kids or camera shy clients.
.
Everyday is different
* the fish might not bite. A child might not cooperate. Mother nature may decide it’s going to rain. Both require flexibility and trust that something good will come if you stay ready.
.
Both are about the catch.
* with fishing at the moment you hook a fish. In photography is the magic of catching that perfect picture. It’s a mix of skill luck and timing.
.
Tools matter, but experience wins.
* you can have the best fishing rod or camera in the world, but it’s your experience and intuition that really brings the win.
