A Sunday with friends {Peoria Illinois child photographer}
Posted on March 15, 2010
I know there are some anxious mommies waiting for this sneak peek. Ladies ~ your kiddos are all rediculously gorgeous! I feel so lucky to have gotten to play with you all yesterday afternoon! The stunning little red head here belongs to a friend of mine from college. She approached me a few weeks ago about doing some mini sessions at her home. Mini sessions aren’t something I’ve done in the past because they require me to be disciplined and strict with a time schedule…which I am not. But this really worked out so well! I headed over to her house yesterday afternoon where she had set up a beautiful little playdate-ish afternoon. The families started rolling in and it truly was just like a play date. The kids all got to be kids and run around the house checking out the cool new toys, the moms and dads got to hang out and let their kids burn some energy. Meanwhile I snuck away with each kid, one by one and photographed them in the different areas of the house. None of the kiddos felt overwhelmed from being focused on too much, and if they got tired of playing model they could go grab a snack or watch some basketball or ride the coolest baby rollercoaster! I think everyone had a blast…including me
. This is the session that led to this tweet.
So ladies…enjoy this teaser! And if you’re interested in setting up something similar, give me a shout!

As a grandma of the little red headed baby, I really enjoyed the afternoon and loved to watch you “work”. Beautiful job and so fun for all.
Thanks for letting me watch you work.
I love the little red Converse!!!!!
Looks like it was a blast!
Just wanted to let you know that my guitar crazy son really enjoyed the shoot! He said on the way home, ‘Mom, can’t wait until the next picture day, when will it be? When I’m back from Florida in April or do I have to wait until I’m 7??’ Great way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
Oh, these are wonderful! I’m sure the moms will very much appreciate this little sneak peak!
Wow, I can see all the energy from that day bounding off the page
. Love the guitar pic!
