Wordless Wednesday: Cheerios

I guess this is what happens when you leave Cheerios within reach of a 2 year old and walk away for 5 seconds.  No wonder little Maddie was so quiet :).

Wordless Wednesday: MK Photography

My very talented friend Marisa has finally decided to go professional with her photography.  She's so good at what she does and has been taking pictures for people here and there but now it's official.  These are a few of the pictures she took of my girls.  She uses natural light to capture life's true moments and is honestly amazing.  She's done weddings, families, pregnancy and children but she's open to more.  To see more of her work you can visit  http://gallery.mac.com/marisa923/100047.

If you're in the Chicagoland or Northwest Indiana area and are interested you can contact her at 630.362.5074 or marisa923(at)sbcglobal(dot)net.  Her rate for a 2-hour session with children is $100 and includes up to 50 proofs.  She comes to your house so your wee ones will be in their own environment, providing for more relaxed pictures.  Please contact her for the rates for events and family, pregnancy, and couples sessions.
