ELAINA + ONSI : PROMISED Illinois Spring Flowers Park Engagement Sessin

Early Spring Park Flowers Engagement Session_0042

I am so excited to share this post because it represents a few things! First, I am officially back from my “give myself lots of grace break” while working in the final weeks of Shrek The Musical at school- we still have 2 more shows but much less rehearsal time is giving me life back, and I am grateful for that! Second, spring is so clearly here- and you will see it all over these images! And lastly, this marks the real beginning of wedding and engagement season, and I am so excited for all the beautiful amazing couples of mine that I get to work with the next few months!!

Elaina and Onsi are the absolute sweetest, most laid back couple ever!  We all had to reschedule this session a few times throughout the winter, but after seeing these images, I am so glad we ended up waiting- because spring looks so good with them!!  There is such an ease about being around them…they are so comfortable together, and make everyone around them just as comfortable, and I absolutely loved my time with them.  Meet Elaina and Onsi!

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!).
