We have been busy this month, but this one was so much fun to help plan out. Paul reached out to me a few months back, wanting to surprise his girlfriend with a proposal right after Christmas. I have been so excited for this day! We couldn't have them go somewhere that would give it away, so I planned an area they would casually be at, and I think he definitely surprised her! His attempt to have her throw out her coffee cup before he asked her had failed, but that's how you know she was completely caught off guard. This was Taylor's first time in Chicago, and I have a feeling it will be one of her favorite trips. We ended up walking around and getting some fun shots for them. Congrats to Paul and Taylor! Thanks for letting me be a part of your wonderful day!

That's a wrap on Santa photos this year. I think these are the best ones yet! These are my favorite sessions that I do each year. I think just seeing the children so excited and happy to see Santa melts my heart. And there were definitely some funny stories told to Santa this year. If you missed out, don't worry, we are still doing sessions with our holiday set up. Make sure to get yours in before Christmas!!

So glad I got to do this session. We ended up breaking it up into 2 sessions b/c the weather was not cooperating on our original date. It has been the rainiest September/October, and rescheduling has happened to more than a few of my clients this month. We finished with perfect weather and a perfect session. Keep smiling that smile Ellie!

We've been getting some inquiries on newborns lately, so I thought I'd share some photos! Newborns are probably our most difficult sessions, but the most rewarding. Look at these smooshy faces!

Just wanted to give an update for the Santa Mini Sessions! There were security updates running on the system we use for our gallery. These updates were to combat some vulnerabilities that were exposed affecting many services around the world. During that time, I was not able to upload anything or have anyone view anything. It is suppose to be back up and running this morning, so I will be slowly getting them all uploaded and sending out emails with the gallery links. I will send out a later email on how you can select the photos. Thanks for your patience! I hope you enjoyed your time with Santa!

We know that 2020 wasn't exactly how everyone wanted to spend their year. However, I feel like you can find some good in almost every not so great situation. For me, it got me to rethink how I wanted to move into the new year with my business for one. I put in place some processes to help keep track of things better, give my clients a better experience, as well as launching a new website! (More to come on that soon!) Secondly, I was able to spend some time with my kids. I'm always running them around to places, that I don't always get the quality time I want with them. And lastly, I realized I need to slow down and spend a little more time on me. Things that I have been putting off for myself seem to always be placed on the back burner because the family comes first. I have learned it's ok to think about yourself sometime and get what you need to get done, or in my case, refuel. So here's to 2021. I hope it shines a little brighter for everyone. #2021

Happy Gobble Gobble! We have so much to be thankful for. I know most people are not spending the time they want with loved ones today. That makes holidays hard. Try to spend this time with your immediate loved ones in a fun and new way, and see if maybe you can incorporate that into next years plans. Today, we are planning bags outside. :) Lets see how this goes! Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

Photographing events that matter most
Photography was always my passion. Since 9 years old, you would see a camera in my hand at every family or friend function. I guess it didnโt come to much shock to the people closest to me that I would end up continuing that into my career. Bellissima Photography was established in 2005, photographing weddings, families, newborns, and children.
