Tracy Joy | Custom NW Illinois Newborn, Baby & Family Photography

I’ve come to realize.. how much I REALLY love working with familes, esp w/small children.
The fun, whimsy, and playfulness of the whole session is simply magical… and I wouldnt give it up for the world!

Not only with the bride and groom…. but man, I LOVE WEDDINGS!!!!!!!

Thanks Jamie and Trent… you made this more than a joy, and more than just a wedding… it was AMAZING! xo

Some of my favorite sessions are bellies… the glorious baby belly!

But esp when there are siblings involved… like this lil prince, and his adorable sister!

is amazing!

If you are a mother, photographer, and aspiring entrepreneur… her seminars and speaking is unlike any other!

I had the pleasure of meeting, and sitting in on a Lori Nordstrom seminar at the CPPA meeting last night… and I was really touched, inspired and blown away!

Not only is she an outstanding photographer… but a great inspiration to us mothers, trying to work out business + family.

Check out Loris’ work HERE and prepare to be amazed…
I’d highly recommend her to any photographer… starting out, or already established.. she has alot to share and teach!

*thanks Lori!
