Everyone can interpret it their own way…some may post their 10 favorite images from the month….some may post 10 images from a session….some may post 10 images from an event. The best part is we are all inspired to do something each month.

So this month I went a little literal and took 10 shots of my sweet Annika doing what she does every day after school….well, except for one thing. I actually got a picture of her napping! That NEVER happens. She must have been tuckered out.

I love these photographs, not just because they are of my sweetie pie, but because I am trying to extend my photographic reach with lifestyle portraits. Trying to capture more in the moment images.

So here are my 10….please check out Amy’s 10 on 10 as well, she is a Chicago Lifestyle Photographer. As you check out each photographer, there will be a link to the next person in the group. Keep clicking and check us all out….even better, leave a comment and tell us what you think!

Are you a Little Bit Country? Or a Little Bit Rock-n-Roll?

Which do you prefer?
An edgy urban session, or a more relaxed country session?

Considering Lake County has one of the most expansive forest preserve systems in Illinois, there are so many natural resources in our own backyards! With rolling hills, tall trees, lush grasses, we have everything we need to create that dreamy, relaxed portrait.

What we also have available to us, are so many quaint small towns, with fantastic buildings and back alleys to give us an edgy urban session….not to mention we are located right between two great big cities, Chicago and Milwaukee!
I have photographed in downtown Antioch, Libertyville, and Lake Forest….and would love to come to your town too!

So leave me a comment below…which do you prefer?

A little bit country

A little bit rock-n-roll

I will still be working with all those adorable kiddos, fun families and loving couples….but I needed a separate place for seniors to go, to get the information specific to them.

So, Britt Anderson Seniors was born.

Please head on over and check out what I have to offer the Class of 2012 AND the Class of 2013.
Pass this on to any high schoolers you know!

Thanks again for the fantastic support and trust you have given me here in Lake County and the North Shore areas.

Funny, as soon as the snow came (along with the obvious cold), she decided she wanted to go back to Savannah….apparently she thought we were on vacation and was wondering if we could move back now. Sorry kid!

But she quickly changed her tune when she bundled up and headed out to make snow angels, snow forts, snowballs to throw at mom….

However, this was a quick snow session while we went on a hike through the woods…all for the low, low price of the latest Smurf movie. (Her modeling demands are going up!)

In the end, it was worth it, don’t you agree?

Contact me today to schedule your own snow session!

As I take this winter season to gear up for the upcoming rush of all the children, families, seniors and couples I will photograph in the next year, I will be doing some retooling and revamping. So make sure you are checking back for all the greatest updates. My “baby” should be debuting in the next month or so, I can’t wait!

In order to keep my creative juices flowing, I am working on a personal project. As much as I love creating portraits for others, there are times I just need to feed my creative soul and photograph for myself. So I started the eighty-five of eighty-five project. I will be photographing for 85 straight days using my 85mm lens. It is my favorite lens, so this should be easy….the 85 days straight will be difficult, but I am determined to do it!

Please check out my eighty-five of eighty-five website…hopefully there will be some cool images for you to check out, perhaps a laugh or two at my expense….should be good times for all.
