who I am

I'm Lenn, the one leading this one-woman operation. I have masses of patience and a real affinity with babies and new parents.

My small business was born out of my passion for natural, minimalist style photography. I realised that no one near my area was offering the simple style of photography that I love. I‘m also really inspired by Scandinavian Minimalism and I wanted the photographs to reflect this.

I have a beautiful, kid-friendly studio outside one of Chicago's northern suburbs, and I can’t wait to welcome you to it.

the studio’s philosophy

This studio follows a 'baby-led posing' style. Your precious newborn is a teeny tiny person, so some poses aren’t good for them. I take cues from my little clients on how I can pose them comfortably and safely. Baby led posing basically means we pose based on what baby allows us to do and do safely. We NEVER want to force a baby into a pose because that definitely isn’t safe. No unnatural poses. No fancy props. Just let them be babies.

kind words

What a wonderful experience! I went with my 7 month old son to meet with Lenn for some photos and she made us both feel welcome and at ease. She returned photos to us within the time frame she gave us originally and they turned out AMAZINGLY! I will absolutely be using her again as my son gets older. 10/10 I highly recommend her.
