Shana Logic Loves Sadie

Sadie Yarrington was one of the first dancers I photographed — for the Pioneer Theatre Guild and for her high school senior portraits. Her talent, poise, and positive energy make her a real treat to work with. What’s more, the portraits I’ve taken of Sadie helped put me on the...

Dawn Inspires

Chicago children’s photographer Dawn M. Mikulich has inspired me since I first saw her work on flickr. (How long ago? Mommy-brain has killed a few too many neurons… but I’m pretty sure it was more than 2 years ago.) We’ve since become good friends. Dawn started her child photography business about...

I Don’t Shoot Weddings...

Not for anyone. They’re just not me. But when Max asked me to take “wedding pictures” of him and Iris, his lovely bride visiting from Brooklyn, I couldn’t resist. Max rarely allows — let alone requests — me to take his picture (he really knows how to torture me). And since...

It Was 7 Years Ago Today
