Hannah and Sarah: Sisters| Springfield, IL Family Photography
I was so touched when this lovely set of sisters approached me about doing a surprise session for their mom for mothers day. As a mother, I know how much that would mean to me! It has been so hard to keep it a secret from our session until now because they are just BEAUTIFUL! I have known these two ladies for a long time as our lives have intertwined with each other in multiple ways, and they both along with their parents (and dog) mean a great deal to my family. We went out on a cloudy, warm evening and did our session in a lovely spot that Mike and I use as our measure of “true nature” in the area we live in (or as close as we can get)- it is a beautiful location, and we had a beautiful time.
Hannah’s man came to join us for a few pictures too! Enjoy the lovely Hannah and Sarah.
And a few with Hannah’s David 🙂
What a lovely couple!
Hannah and Sarah, you are both gorgeous. Thanks for sharing your evening with me. And Julie–Happy Mother’s Day to one of my favorite mothers– I hope these serve as good memories of your girls at this stage in life.

I'm Jill, a wedding and portrait photographer based out of Chicago and Central Illinois, and available world wide! I'm also a photography educator, wife to my favorite person on the planet, mama to 3 amazing kids and an energetic Aussie, and obsessed with statement jewelry and all desserts (especially fruit pies!).
As a past high school teacher, I have a major heart for education. After going full time in my business, I have built a business I love that gives me an almost 6 figure salary and allows me to be home part time with my kids. I dream for you to run a business that enhances your life and lights you up, and I believe I can help you learn how to do it with a little hustle and a lot of heart!

Hello Friend!
Are you a Photographer?
Start HERE!
Are you a mom/hobbyist?
Start HERE!
You're in the right place! As a past high school teacher, educating others is my life's work and a HUGE part of my business! I have been teaching moms and hobbyists how to use their camera from first purchasing it all the way to coaching them into businesses of their own, and I'd love to help you as well, wherever you are (and whatever camera you have!).
I'm so glad you are here! Teaching Photographers and other small business owners how to run more joyful, successful, and profitable businesses is one of my favorite parts of my business! I specialize in working with photographers to make their goals a reality (or figure out what their goals should be in the first place!).
As the mother of these two beauties, I can’t tell you how much this surprise gift means to me!! First of all, I still can’t believe they managed to keep it a secret! Neither one is known for having a “poker face”! And NOW I understand why I couldn’t go to Panera with all of you! And Jill, it means so much that YOU are taking these pictures…makes them all the more special! What I find so amazing is how you really “captured” them. There are subtle looks that I see on their faces that say, “this is me”! And it’s not just because you know them personally. You’ve only met David a time or two, and yet you’ve managed to capture him as well! You truly have a gift for this Jill, and the camera is just an extension of what you really see in people!! Love you for this!
Julie–thank you so much for this sweet comment–there is NOTHING I would rather hear as a photographer that that I captured what you see and know in them!!! I’m so glad you love them!!!
