{Brother & Sister} Little Pals Photography Sterling IL

While out on locations shooting a senior session I captured a few images of this brother & sister together.

So as not to steal the spotlight from the big brother on his senior images post I decided to post these sneak peeks of them together on my family site instead. :)

I love traveling to new locations and family homes to capture images of families.  Atmosphere is much more relaxed and I think we can see more the true personalities.

Call me today to book your family session!

Here is a few sneak peeks of the brother and sister together………….

As you can see here we tried to capture some family farm history with a little fun mixed in!  I played around with a few different color techniques to put a more vintage feel to them.  Which one do you prefer?



{Mr “J”} Little Pals Photography | Sterling IL

My Fresh Faces 2010 Winner came in yesterday for his first session.

And like all 1 year olds was more interested in moving than sitting.

We did manage to capture a few images of him in between his juice, snacks and toys.

Looking forward to capturing more at their family session this fall.


{Charlie} Little Pals Photography | Sterling IL

Tonight I had Mr Charlie in the studio for a quick session………..

He was such a good dog and definitely the largest dog ever to step into my studio.  I should of put something in the shot so you could tell how large this cutie really is.

I am just guessing that when he was sitting his head was approx 4ft off the ground.  He made my little dogs look like little mice in comparison.  :)

Little Man “D” turns 1 Month Old!

This little cutie pie was so sweet and snuggly.  He came by just in time to get a few 1 month shots and some family pics with Mom & Dad.

I do believe he was my first little boy baby to NOT christen any of the blankets during the au natural shots. ;)

Here are few sneak peeks of him………..  almost done preparing the rest for Mom & Dad to see and share!  Gallery should be online Wednesday or Thursday.


{Mother & Son} Little Pals Photography | Sterling IL

Tonight was a trip to the park………..

We fought off mosquitos for an hour to grab a few shots of Mother & Son.

Poor guy was full of bites in just the first few minutes.  I had to photoshop out a bite on his poor forehead

This mom and son have a special place in my heart and will always be part of the “family”.  Love you guys!

Here are a few sneak peeks………… rest are uploading to the proofing gallery now.

{The “N” Boys} Little Pals Photography | Sterling IL Photographer

Tonight we had a short session to capture a few more images of these little boys…….

Such cuties!

We headed to Sinnissippi Park and did some baseball images.  Hope you enjoy!

{The “W” Family Grandkids} Little Pals Photography | Sterling IL

Sunday I had the pleasure of photographing the Grandchildren for this family.

Last year when we did family pictures there were only 5 grandchildren and now this year there family has grown and they have 7

It was so fun to see how much the 5 from last year had changed and to meet the new additions.

Here are some of the images I captured.

Almost done with the rest of the gallery.  I should have them up for you in a day or so.

Enjoy your sneak peek…………
