Baby E was turning one and his parents wanted some portraits taken to mark the occasion. They opted for professional photos because they planned on enlarging and printing some for a display at his birthday party the following weekend.
Approach
Baby E was born in the summer, so I suggested Chicago Women's Park and Gardens in the Near South Side because of its beautiful backdrop of trees. His parents brought along some fun props - a cake, a party hat, some large letters to spell his initials and a basket with balloons tied to it to look like a child-sized hot air balloon. We let him have fun with the props to get some candids and his mom did a great job making silly faces to get some smiles for his portraits.

Testimonial
It was such a pleasure working with Katherine. She took my son's 1 year old photos and it was absolutely adorable. She's patient, creative and just an amazing photographer overall. Thank you Katherine for capturing a special moment and being a part of our family history.
