The B Family: Day in the Life [Naperville Lifestyle Photographer]

So many Day in the Life sessions lately you guys, and my heart is exploding with happiness! For the B family's Day in the Life, Stacy joked that a real day would be trying to shop at Target with two kids in tow, or maybe grocery shopping on a busy Saturday. Yikes! Well, instead of that adventure, they chose to bake cookies with the kiddos (Lachlan ate most of the dough - kid after my own heart!) and carve the pumpkins that they would set out for Halloween. We also spent a little time in the backyard, sadly it was too chilly to be out there for long! Here are some highlights from their session!

The B Family [Naperville Family and Child Photographer]

This was my first time meeting the sweet, adorable B family and their session was a blast. I have had so many great families this year, and I love meeting all these fun, new clients! Also, can we take a moment to talk about how cute Zia is? I just love her little sherpa vest - why are kids clothes so cute now and when I was growing up I wore the WORST stuff? (Sorry mom!) Anyways, we had their session at one of my favorite places, and it was just perfect with the leaves starting to change as a backdrop. Here are some of my favorites!

The D Family [Naperville Family and Child Photographer]

So many fun sessions with families this time of year, and it makes me love my job even more when I can catch up with past clients! The D family did photos a couple of years ago when Olivia was just a little thing, and now Chelsea and Tyler have added another cutie, little William! How great did these kiddos do for their session (which started sprinkling in the middle of it, we just hid under the bridge, ha!)? Their lab Annie crushed her photo op too, gotta love a dog that will do anything for her favorite toy!

Courtney + Corbin [Iowa City, IA Engagement Photography]

You know when you meet people and just hit it off immediately? That's how I feel about Courtney and Corbin. Not only are they gorgeous, they are so kind and fun to be around. I am beyond excited for their July wedding in downtown Iowa City, and if their engagement session was any indication, it's going to be a blast. For their engagement, we wandered around town - hung out in some alleys, got heckled by a bicyclist, and balanced precariously on a broken swing. Typical Iowa City, right? ;) Here are some of my favorites from their session!

The W Family: Day in the Life [Naperville Lifestyle Photographer]

I will never, ever get sick of photographing these Day in the Life sessions! A couple of weeks ago I spent the morning at the W family's home, with their two sweet little boys. Lawrence was feeling under the weather, but perked up after a treatment to help his wheezing and coughing. We had a very relaxed session, just letting it unfold as we went along. My favorite part was how excited Lawrence was about his shark head, so darn cute.

I can't resist pointing out that these are the perfect type of session for the upcoming winter season! You can hang out inside where it's warm and cozy, but if the kids want to play outdoors, you just bundle them up and send them (and me) out to play in the snow! Easy peasy, and very chill -- one thing Kaitlin mentioned is that her and Kyle used to get photos every year around their anniversary before they had kiddos. Now, she is terrified of the thought of a traditional photo session with two littles - making sure everyone looks great, diapers are clean, no one is in a bad mood, everyone has full bellies...yikes! If you feel the same way, this type of session is for you!

*I chose all black and white for this post because I loved how they turned out, but all Day in the Life sessions get the option of color or black and white in their galleries. :)
