Last week my all time favorite musicians, the Indigo Girls, played at Ravinia Park in Chicago. It is quickly becoming a tradition for me to come around that event, stay for a few days with some awesome friends and do some mini-sessions. These are different than my typical sessions in that they are a little more posed- but still lots of fun and I get to meet some of the cutest kids!
This year all my sessions included siblings- some only 2, but also my largest ever a gorgeous family of 6 kids! 
Thank you for a wonderful few days- and extra love to Sara and Nancy for your hospitality

When LC’s mom called me to tell me the news of her arrival- she told me how ALL the nurses in the hospital were oooing and ahhhing over her insanely cute new baby girl and I couldn’t wait to meet her and sure enough- she’s just the cutest little thing!
We used this scarf at her maternity session- so it was fun to use it at the newborn session also!
This one makes me chuckle- she’s ready to rumble
So sweet!
In her momma’s arms…
I love this one- from momma’s happy face to LC’s little toes peeking out

What a BEAUTIFUL day it was for our session, the type of day and evening that Minnesotans literally wait for all winter long. The *B* Family choose a park near their home that I’d never been to before and wowza what a fun and gorgeous location. I love finding new spots for family portraits!
The whole lovely family:
Mr. *A* is your typical preschooler- a zest for life with so many things to check out and explore- he was just a hoot!
With his two most prized possessions:
Little Miss *A* was your typical toddler- busybusybusybusy and very independent- she made me laugh as she reminded me of my own kids at that age- very determined and not to be easily swayed
I love EVERYTHING about this image…her chubby cheeks, adorable lashes, the pudgy arms and her lips all tight in concentration….ahhh toddlers
Thanks *B* family for a lovely evening by the lake!
