I always have so much fun with this family and this session may be my favorite one yet! We had to postpone a couple times due to weather so our initial “spring flower” session turned into a “summer beach” session on an unseasonably cool and windy day. You wouldn’t know these girls were freezing judging by their nonstop sweet smiles. The wind was a challenge to work with but I love the added drama it gives to the images. We started at my favorite spot along North Avenue beach which is just off the beaten path and is elevated enough to block out the crowds of people who visit this location every evening (plus the giant volleyball tournament!). These girls are seriously the easiest kids to photograph. The first photo is literally the first shot of the evening and they never. stopped. smiling. We started off with some family photos in front of the Chicago skyline and then headed down to the water where the girls got to splash in the waves and play in the sand. It was so much fun to chase these kids around and get to be a kid for a little while myself. Here are some of my favorites from their session:
