Before she was a big sister; she made them parents :D
I’ve gotten to go to Chicago a few times this year and each time I am so excited to be in the city and hang out with such wonderful people. I’m usually there for weddings, but this time, a past wedding client of mine reached out for some photos to commemorate the upcoming arrival of their second baby.
The transition from only child to older sister is such an important time for kids—I know because I was that second child. My family has several amusing stories about how my sister reacted to me being born. Including me stealing a candy bar out of her hand and toddling away with it. So, this session had an extra special meaning for me.
I hope these two look back at the calm before the chaos and the wonderful, magical time in their lives with the little girl who made them parents. Its so weird to believe that I first met these two in 2014 to photograph their engagement photos and now they are a family.
For anyone wondering, my included travel fee of 3 hours from Anderson, Indiana gets dangerously close to Chicago so its only a little extra for me to get into the suburbs. This Elmhurst family photography session was beautiful
