Schenk Family Maternity Photos – Chicago, Illinois

Maggie Russo — Fri, 27 Apr 2012 01:45:53 +0000

Here are some maternity photos from a little family in Chicago expecting a baby boy. We first took some photos around their home. The bedroom is one of my favorite places to photograph maternity photos. I also have fallen in love with the idea of using a belly band as a top in your maternity photos. It’s a great way to get beautiful photos of your bare belly without being too revealing. Afterward we hopped in the car and drove over to the Montrose Beach area for some outdoor photos.

A few years ago I photographed Allison & Matt’s wedding. It was so fun to see them again & document this new journey in their lives. In a few months I’ll be posting baby photos of their newest addition.

Natasha – Bulldog Puppy – At Home

Who doesn’t love photos of a puppy every once in a while? Natasha was so much fun. During the photo shoot I was thinking of ways I could strategically fit her into my camera bag & take her home with me. I also wanted to include Natasha’s sister in the shoot so I ended with a photo of Svetlana kitty. Enjoy the cuteness!

How can you not smile when looking at the photos of this cute little girl? These photos were shot at a home in Streamwood, Illinois. We had lots of fun changing Emma into different outfits & finding the perfect spots around their home to photograph her. They were all so great to work with. Enjoy the super cuteness!
