I’ve had the pleasure of working with Jill at Google over the past two years! She is one of the most genuine, authentic, and encouraging people you will ever meet. When I first moved to Chicago, Jill was still pregnant with her now 2-year old, Lily Maeve. Lily has since grown to be a beautiful little girl with the biggest blue eyes and long eyelashes. She’s strong-willed, independent, and has the most charming smile. When Jill reached out about scheduling a family session for her, Jeremy & Lily, I knew this would be yet another amazing family session :) We are the luckiest to get to work with the best families.

The Kruidenier family arrived at Austin Gardens in Oak Park with some of the best photo props ever! A little wooden chair for Lily, beautiful blue and red flower bouquets, a little white pumpkin, and light colored blankets. I love it when our families think outside the box, and the Kruideniers knocked it out of the park :)

Between running after Lilly, helping her defy gravity, and sweet hugs all around, I love these precious memories we made together!

Cheers to the Kruideniers! Can’t wait to see your sweet family grow through the years :)
