Happy Birthday My Six Year Old!

I can’t believe I am writing another “my baby is one year older” post.
We have had 5 years old and 4 years old on the blog….and now we have SIX!

I keep typing out all this fantastic stuff to write about her….and I delete it, for fear of bragging….but guess what.

Here come the brags!!!!

Annika is finishing up Kindergarten and doing so well.
As a former Kindergarten teacher, I can honestly say, with an educational background, with a Masters in Gifted Education that she is a GENIUS! Nope, no bias here!

Annika loves exploring and creating….her imagination amazes me every day.

She is loving and caring (she even said she would love me until everyone in the entire galaxy dies…..now THAT is love!)

She is polite and considerate.

She is why I only had one kid….no way could I get this lucky a second time.

Been Too Long!

I have been neglecting my blog from client work lately….so here I am preparing a few posts for the upcoming week!

First on the agenda, my pictures from the Carmel Prom. I was able to head over to University of St. Mary of the Lake Mundelein Seminary a couple weeks ago to photograph some juniors before the headed out to their prom.

These kids were very cool, and very cute.

Here is a teaser….head on over to Britt Anderson Seniors to catch the rest!

I Need Some Structure – 10 on 10

My self imposed theme for this month’s 10 on 10 was structures.

I set off in the car one gloomy day to check out the various structures in my area…trying to find anything interesting.

Why are barns so inviting for pictures?

I don’t get it either, yet here I am, snapping away at them.

Fashion and Ragdale – Published | North Shore Photographer

Lookie what I found in my mailbox this weekend….the latest issue of Make It Better Magazine!

I was hired to take photographs for two different articles this month.

First, I photographed the lovely Mia as fashion editor Kat and stylist Evangeline worked to “shop your closet” with Mia’s wardrobe.
They were able to create several new outfits out of clothes she had in her closet already!

An added benefit for me, getting all of this knowledge first hand as we worked.

The second article was for an article celebrating a local treasure, Ragdale in Lake Forest, IL.

I was thrilled to visit here, as I had never even heard of it before.
Ragdale supports writers and artists in a retreat setting and makes the arts more accessible to the public. I was so excited to get to tour the facilities and learn more about it. I highly suggest you check them out as well!

As always, check out their iPad edition….they always throw extra pictures in there!
