Chicago Photographer | Chicago Newborn Photographer | Chicago Children's Photographer | Patricia Anderson Photography | Reflection

This weeks theme was "reflections".  While I *reflected* on how this could be interpreted in a creative, artistic way, I (of course) waited until the last minute to take my reflective photos, and simplified it a little more than I had hoped for.  But oh well!  Today, my daughter and I visited Millennium Park with one of my good friends.  I figured, what better reflective landmark in the city of Chicago then THE BEAN!  It was a bit chilly so we didn't stay for too long, but here are a few Reflective shots taken here in downtown Chicago!  

And now, hop on over to the blog of my FAVORITE Chicago Photographer,
Elaine Melko!

I hope everyone is having a fantastic Thursday so far :) I have a lot of friends and clients ask about the difference between the RAW photos and the touched up photos and if there is really much of a difference, and what exactly would a RAW photo look like compared to a touched up photo. I wanted to share with everyone a comparison of the two, just for those who would be curious to see a before and after. This particular photo was taken this past weekend at a wedding in Streamwood, IL. This is one of the Bride's maids modeling the earrings that were given to her for the wedding :)

Woo!

I'm finally moved into the new studio, and just finished up with my first shoot in the new photography studio! I couldn't be happier to be working with natural light!  It just casts a much softer and romantic look, plus it's much better for newborns, as the flash doesn't startle them

Baby "A" Slept literally 99% of the shoot, which is almost unheard of for newborn photos! She let me place her pretty much anywhere my camera wanted her, and even gave me a few smiles to capture for her very lucky mother and father :)

If you're in the Lincoln Park area, stop by 833 W. Webster Ave. and say hello to Elaine Melko or Myself.  We'll be spending lots of time in the new studio, so come on by!

Here are the sneak peeks from today's shoot with Baby "A"

A few shots from my most recent newborn photography shoot.  Baby "C" was 5 weeks old.... a little bit older than the norm for newborn shots, but she did a great job!  She was awake and alert for almost the whole shoot, but we really needed to show off those baby blue eyes :)
