Straessle Family Des Plaines Illinois Childhood Home Backyard Family Photography // Chicago Family Photographer

I have loved work with Paige, Erik and their girls Josie and Nora. So when Paige reached out to do a full family session with her siblings and parents, I was so excited. I think doing these extended family sessions are the best!! I feel like we often forget to continue to get special moments documented once kids get older. It is just as important as when they are little! Maybe more so because you don’t get to see each other as often. And what was extra special was doing this session in the backyard of the home they grew up in.
