Are You a Little Bit Country? Or a Little Bit Rock-n-Roll?

Britt Anderson — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 18:29:00 +0000

We are lucky here in the Lake County, North Shore areas to have a great mixture of environments and locations to photograph at…..so the question you have to ask yourself is…

Are you a Little Bit Country? Or a Little Bit Rock-n-Roll?

Which do you prefer?
An edgy urban session, or a more relaxed country session?

Considering Lake County has one of the most expansive forest preserve systems in Illinois, there are so many natural resources in our own backyards! With rolling hills, tall trees, lush grasses, we have everything we need to create that dreamy, relaxed portrait.

What we also have available to us, are so many quaint small towns, with fantastic buildings and back alleys to give us an edgy urban session….not to mention we are located right between two great big cities, Chicago and Milwaukee!
I have photographed in downtown Antioch, Libertyville, and Lake Forest….and would love to come to your town too!

So leave me a comment below…which do you prefer?

Model Search Part Three! | Chicago Photographer

This session was done a few weeks ago (bad blogger!), but I have been bogged down with holiday portrait deadlines! Now that those are winding down, I have time to go back to some of these great images from our model session in September.

We started out at the Caplan’s house, then ventured into downtown Lake Forest, IL for some more with an urban feel.

Stephanie was great, she even suggested the ones on the wall, this girl was not afraid to go climbing!!!

Just a quick break in the action while I post a couple quick snapshots taken this Halloween of my little Dorothy….er, Annika.

A Little Rain Never Hurt Anyone…

This session was a close call….we got underway and had to work fast.
Just as we were finishing up the rain started to fall. We dashed into the Forsyth Park Cafe to wait it out.
Luckily, we were able to get some adorable shots before the rain came.

Isn’t it how it always goes?
A child who is normally all smiles, comes to the photo session giving me the stare down.

whatchu lookin at?

Ok, maybe he was looking at me like I was crazy while I was making all sorts of monkey noises to get his attention.
Nah, that couldn’t be it….

This little guy came out to Forsyth Park with Mom and Dad, Grandma and Grandpa.
He was stylin, and yes, I eventually got my smiles.
