We love when families come to the studio. We need nothing, but their unique personalities and relationships.

We decided to have our first ever studio event for Valentine’s Day. We had kids, families and adults come to show their love in the studio.

Thank you to all who came and made the day fantastic!

And here’s my cutie, too.

So we moved into this unit that has a large open concept area that we have divided into a dining area, kitchen, living area and photography studio! We have some pretty awesome natural lighting and it seemed like a waste not to use it for studio work.

These top two pictures are with straight-up window light.

Window plus reflector!

And these last two have an added continuous light.

Same lighting as above, but with a diffuser.

Nothing but continuous light.
This last one is a continuous light with a diffuser.

I’m really excited about this new addition to my photography offerings. This new studio space is perfect for newborn pictures, head shots, portraits and anything else you can imagine. The best thing is that this space is not controlled by weather conditions! That’s a big deal in Chicago with its unpredictable weather. Woo hoo! If you are interested or have questions about what kind of services I can provide, drop me an email at heatherallisonlove {at} gmail.com.

Thanks to my little family for being my forever test subjects. You’re the best.
