Kacia and Joe and Baby on the Way | Roscoe, IL

Kacia and Joe are expecting their first child! We met in Roscoe, IL at one of my favorite outdoor locations and utilized the lush spring greens, covered bridge, and shallow creek. Kacia's glowing and it's easy to see all the love she and Joe have for their new baby. Congratulations!

Baby Corran's Newborn Session | Roscoe, IL & Honengah Forest Preserve

When I graduated from Rockford University... there was only one other BFA major alongside with me. Jennifer and I grew close during our years at college together and working side by side to make art and suffer through all those art critiques. She's a beautiful woman and I'm honored to be her friend and to have had the honor to take Corran's newborn photos. Here's a look back at just a few of my favorites.
