Let it Snow! {Downers Grove, Hinsdale Family Photographer}

2013-12-11_0001

This past Sunday I had the joy of doing my first photo session in the SNOW!2013-12-11_0002

The family was great & I love how the mom styled their clothing: simple solids & such a variety of color.

I even got them to JUMP!2013-12-11_0003

The kids were total troopers. No complaints, just chills & some red ears (poor things!)

I wish we could have hung out more so I could get to know each & every one a bit more,

but we needed to get the job done. They were so fun though!2013-12-11_0004

12 year old triplets!!!! a 10 yr old & almost 7 yr old.

I think these parents are my super-heroes!2013-12-11_0005

And, little did I know when I designed this card over a month ago, I would get to use it with such PERFECT photos!

Thanks to the “McB” family for braving the weather & having such fun with me!2013-12-11_0006

FREE Shipping remains in the shop!

Get meaningful Christmas gifts this year!

Grace & Peace,

Julie

Meet My Nephews {Julie Chen Photography}

2013-12-04_0001

At Thanksgiving last week, I was able to photograph several family members, including my brother & his family.

I LOVE how they turned out.

There was magical light & a sprinkling of snow & 3 very handsome young men making me smile.2013-12-04_0002

I cannot get over how every time I go home, my oldest nephew has grown so much!

He is taller than me now & I think taller than Sam {though he claims they are equal!}2013-12-04_0003

These young men are not only handsome, but they are also kind, fun, smart, athletic, and a joy to be around.

I am so thankful to be their auntie!2013-12-04_0005

Remember, FREE shipping in the SHOP!

Please come to our open house this coming Saturday! Find all the details HERE.

Grace & Peace,

Julie

Puppy Love {Downers Grove, Hinsdale Family Photographer}

2013-11-25_00082013-11-25_0009

This family was SO fun to photograph & JUST LOOK AT THAT PUPPY!!!!

Oh, the cuteness. A boy & his dog. Ahhhh….

The funniest part of this shoot was at one point we had tried “containing” the pup while I was just shooting the family & the puppy got loose & ran at me, defending his family already.

Since I am allergic to dogs & therefore not used to being around many dogs, it freaked me out. It made all of us laugh.

Don’t forget: FREE shipping in the shop!

This year buy meaningful gifts for Christmas!

Grace & Peace,

Julie

Scripture Art Giveaway: Revelation 21 All Things New

2013-10-23_0001

{Art available here}

Behold! I am making ALL THINGS new.

What a verse full of encouragement. When I read it, I think of the redemptive power Jesus offers us, to make our lives new in Him. I also think of springtime & the buds, blooms, and birds’ nests full of new life. This little robin’s nest was sheltered on our cousin’s front porch {and the mama bird was so protective, they could not use their front door for a month lest she attack them!}

It’s Giveaway Time!
