Expecting a baby in Highland Park? A maternity session is the perfect way to honor this fleeting chapter. Kristin photographs expectant mothers from Highland Park at her Glenview studio, complete with a client closet of flowing gowns in every size, professional posing guidance, and soft, timeless lighting. Many Highland Park moms pair the studio with golden-hour portraits — Rosewood Beach and the ravine-side paths near the lake are breathtaking backdrops. The ideal window is between 28 and 34 weeks.

From first smiles to first birthdays, your baby changes so fast — and Highland Park families love having those milestones captured beautifully. Kristin offers sitter sessions (around six to nine months, when babies can sit but not yet crawl away!) and cake smash sessions to celebrate turning one, all in the Glenview studio about 20 minutes from Highland Park. Every session is tailored to your baby’s personality with coordinated setups and professional lighting.

Family portraits are about connection — the pile of kids on your lap, the laughter between poses, the way this season of life really feels. Kristin photographs Highland Park families in the studio and on location, guiding natural, relaxed poses so everyone looks like themselves. Whether you are marking a new sibling, an annual update, or just because, you will leave with a gallery you are proud to display.
