Chicagoland Photographer | Spring Beach, Park & Urban with Allison

2020-05-05_0018exp.jpg

We had such a beautiful day for our photo shoot! I just love Spring Sessions. After spending too much time indoors it was such a reviving feeling to visit some of my favorite locations again and do what I love most.

Allison and her mom did an amazing job on hair and makeup. How fun to play beauty shop with your mom and do nails, curl hair and just make a fun memory during the end of Senior Year. I feel so bad for all the Seniors missing out on many memories like Prom and Graduation Ceremony. Fingers crossed CPHS will find a way to make graduation special for their Seniors!

Luckily Allison had already gone shopping for her outfits before stores closed. Every outfit worked perfectly and brought out the best in Allison.

18. Why do you think it's important to do senior portraits? What was the best part?

The best part was just going to the different locations and seeing what a camera can really bring to life. It’s important to do senior portraits too have pictures that you can look back on when you’re older. Also to have for graduation party's and to see how far you have come through all these years of school.

We went to Deep River, down town Miller and the Aquatorium and Beach…

Thank you Allison for letting me photograph your Senior Session! I think it was worth it to wait until your braces were off and doing them this Spring. You are simply stunning and your smile is contagious! I had such a blast and the most difficult time narrowing down your gallery!

Best of luck with everything and find JOY in all your future endeavors!
