Studio Family & Maternity Photos in Kankakee, Illinois | The Gigl Family

These maternity photos at the studio were perfection from start to finish!!

The Gigl family is growing this summer!! I loved welcoming this family to the studio for family and maternity photos before they become a family of four. Miss Layla stole the show in these photos… I mean look at that cutie pie! She is full of spunk and sass, and I loved chasing her around the studio for these photos. These photos are so simple and sweet, and I love that they capture the Gigl family before their family grows.

As a family photographer, there are countless parts of my job that I love! One of those is when my clients refer me to their loved ones. Another is when clients return for another session and another session, and then they quickly become lifer clients. And finally, when clients send me messages like this – “OH MY GOODNESS!! These are so sweet.” – after only seeing a sneak peek and share their favorite photos online after gallery delivery day. There are truly no higher compliments than these things as a family photographer. These things remind me that the work I do is important, meaningful, and needed. Grateful and so very thankful for my amazing clients and friends!

As I look back on the latest family and maternity photos of the Gigl family, I can’t help but think – it’s truly been an honor to get to know this family and become a friend in photos over the past couple of years!! Enjoy some of my favorites from this maternity & family session!
