WELCOME

Yay! I’m so glad you are here. I’m a natural light photographer located in Volo, Illinois, a suburb in the Northern Chicagoland area and Lake County. I focus primarily on newborns, families, and lifestyle work.

Let’s remember your family. Your family has a story to tell. These photos will not be your standard look at the camera type photos. There is magic in the connection that unfolds in those fleeting moments when you just go with the flow. I like to keep it real, low key, and honest with our time together. As long as you know that going into your session, trust me your session will go amazing! I will be guiding and directing your session to capture emotion and connection within your family. I always go with my heart and I’m drawn to authentic emotion, laughter, and the unexpected.  My hope is to capture your story and lives as it is, in all its chaos and beauty.  I truly love that many of my clients have now become such great friends, and I know we will too!

“Carole is one of the most talented photographers you will ever find. I love her natural way of getting family pictures. It’s never forced poses. She gets your authentic family dynamics. She lets kids be kids and will capture that genuine smile were you can almost hear the giggle through the photograph.”

“We couldn’t be happier with our family pictures! I sought Carole out after seeing a friend’s family pictures that she had done. Carole was able to capture the essence of each member of our family. She exudes kindness and is wonderful to work with.”
