Zoei | Chicago Newborn Photographer

Meet Zoei, beautiful, tiny, adorable Zoei, who came to see me on her 14th day of life. She was the absolute sweetest baby ever, and only weighed in at 5 lbs, SO cute! Let me tell you, she rocked the session from beginning to end, was such a relaxed baby and amazing sleeper! What impressed me the most was she let me get thru THREE prop shots, which is very rare that babies let me get that many! The one that her father wanted the most was her, posed on top of his Chicago Bears helmet that he brought in for the session. He is BIG sports fan, so when he saw the picture in my studio of Chicago Bear Jermon Bushrod, where I had his daughter Jayla posed on top of his personal helmet (see session HERE), he was inspired and wanted to have that same shot for himself! And Zoei gave me the biggest smile for that shot too, which was a bonus! She must have known how much that shot meant to her daddy 🙂 Her mommy also came prepared, she knew exactly what she wanted to see in her session, she had requested props from The Knitting Bitty like the ballerina slippers, she also wanted crowns, angel wings, the princess carriage and the moon. And Zoei breezed thru it all. What a champ…

Raffaella | Vernon Hills Newborn Photographer

Please meet beautiful Raffaella, who came to see me on her 21st day of life; exactly at the 3 week mark! Her mommy was so worried that she wouldn’t do well, and boy did Raffe show her! 🙂 She was the absolute best baby ever!! I really wanted to keep her and pose her all day long LOL. She had the most relaxed hands and just posed so well!! I first met her parents when I did their maternity session this past summer, and as you can see here, Raffe’s mommy is absolutely stunning herself, so it was a given that her little princess would be as pretty as her.. What a joy she was to have in the studio..

Kyrie | Newborn Photographer in Chicago IL

Meet adorably handsome Kyrie, who came to see me a couple of weeks ago, on his 11th day of life! He was SO yummy!!!! He and I had to get to know each other a bit, very early on I noticed that he loved to be cuddled, and every time I would put him down to pose him, he’d be fussy and wake up! Once I caught on to what he liked, I just would snuggle him, then put him down to take a picture, then pick him back up, to put him back down on the beanbag again, and so on and so forth! Not my usual approach, but whatever works to make my teeny clients happy is what I do! And he seriously gave my like 8 smiles total! And he really loved that adorable teddy bear that I got from The Knitting Bitty! That was when he flashed the most smiles! What a little charmer he was! I know he will have his mommy wrapped around his pinky finger for sure! Capturing smiles like the ones Kyrie gave me makes me love my job even more, and everyday I count my blessings that this is my job!

If you are expecting or have recently given birth and are looking for a newborn photographer in Chicago IL, please consider Naja Lerus Photography to capture your precious memories! And I would like to give a shoutout to Kyrie’s mom, who is a Vlogger extraordinaire, and she did a mini-Vlog on his session, as they arrived at the studio, you can see it here! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wNZ5u1recRk

Lilou | Chicago Newborn Photography

Meet adorable Lilou (pronounced “lee-loo””)! Little miss Lilou came to see me on her 10th day of life, and was just pure perfection and had the prettiest, most delicate features. From the moment we started to the moment we finished, I didn’t see her eyes, not even once. Her mommy wanted to see vibrant colors in her session, and I was so happy how beautiful these two backdrops looked with her beautiful, flawless complexion. Also, both of her parents are teachers, so I knew that I had to break out my prop desk that my dear hubby made for me (last picture at the bottom of this post), so I can use it during this session, and OF COURSE she rocked it, as she did with the dream catcher prop! She allowed me to be so creative with her! And she also even gave me a smile.. Baby smiles always get me, I tell you!!

If you are expecting or just recently had a baby, and are looking into Chicago newborn photography for your baby, please do not hesitate to contact me for more details! I would be honored to be your chosen photographer to capture your baby’s first weeks of life with my lens.
