The Zapata Family { Wheaton IL Family Photography }

I have a ton of catching up to do!  I’ve been busy finishing up the sports season with the kids, and booked with TONS of photo sessions so I’m just catching up on some editing… oh this poor neglected blog!

Anyway, I just wanted to introduce you to the beautiful Zapata family.  I met Carrie back in junior high and thanks again to social media was lucky enough to reconnect with her a few years ago.  (gotta love Facebook… even though they won’t quit making annoying changes to it every 4 weeks!)

Carrie and her husband Carlos are two of the nicest people you’d ever want to meet.  They are really that nice and that thoughtful.  Even though they were one of the winners of one of my giveaways this spring, they insisted on giving me a very generous gift card to The Cheesecake Factory.  See, they are the most thoughtful couple ever!  (Thanks again Carrie!  Anytime this momma doesn’t have to cook is a good night!)

Cameryn, Luke and Mia were so awesome to work with.  They were so well behaved and polite, and they did exactly what I asked them to do.  DREAM clients!  Honestly, you never know what you are going to be up against with the littles.

So grateful for these beautiful images to add to my portfolio, and so thankful to have Carrie as a friend!

 

 

I was being selfish with my October weekends because I wanted to spend it with my family before the weather got too cold, but I do have some openings that just became available.  If you would like to book a family or mini-session before the end of the month, please call me at 630-673-6233.

I also have a Christmas card photo mini session open house scheduled in my home for November 5th and 6th. Like my Facebook page for all the details to the special promotion!

Ron, Dina and Maddie | Plainfield IL Family Photography

There are tons of crazy coincidences that have come up over the years that I’ve known this adorable family, definitely way too many to count, but I first met Ron at the last salon I worked at here in Plainfield before I decided to work from home.  Since then I have been their family hairstylist, their Realtor… and their photographer!

Ron and Dina are pretty perfect for each other, and their daughter Maddie is such a sweet, polite, and beautiful little girl.  It made photographing them almost effortless.  I started laughing when we were scoping out the scenery at Inwood Park in Joliet for the best places to use as a backdrop when Ron exclaimed, “no man made structures.”  We found the best little area along the side of the park with large piled up branches and logs that made the perfect un”man-made” benches!  I did coax them over the the beautiful gazebo and bridge at the other side of the park though, lol.  The photographer in me just simply could not resist ;o)

I’m so glad to know this family and lucky to have so many reasons to keep in touch!  Aren’t they adorable?
