The Path - Chicago Area Photographer

This year I have been discovering my path to inner peace and happiness.  It has been a great journey.  So many wonderful things have come my way. Including many wonderful people. 

I read and seek out many different teachings and writings including but not limited to Joel Osteen, Deepak Chopra, and Don Miguel Ruiz.  I find messages in blogs that my friends share with me.  Most recently my beautiful friend LA shared this awesome blog post with me. I even find inspiration in my friends FB posts.  Every day is unique and beautiful with messages all around. 

One of the most important things I have learned is that I must live this moment now.  Not thinking, longing or dwelling on the past and not living in a future that is yet to exist.  It is now, today, this very moment that is absolute and what I chose to do with it the most important. 

Love and peace to you on your journey, Angel

Enjoying the Park - Chicago Area Children Photographer

This is baby R's 9 month session and we did a casual, fun, beautiful session at one of his favorite places.  




Digging in the dirt.

 
I wonder what he is thinking here....
He is such a smart little guy.

 
 
 


 
Growing so fast!
See you soon.  Love, your Tia!

"A" Newborn - Chicago Area Newborn Photographer

This newborn is only a few days young.  She brought me back to one of my favorite places... TN, so for that I thank you little sleeping beauty!




So much joy and love to capture via my lens. 
 







This is one of my favorites from their maternity session.  I imagine baby A was doing the same thing in the image above as she was doing in the image below... smiling :)


 
... so much love to capture... 






  I'm going to quote dad and say, "Prayers answered." 
Congratulations mom and dad, she is perfect!
