Child and family PORTRAIT GUIDE

Hello!

Thank you so much for your interest in Ally and B Photography. I would be honored to work with you! I offer a fine art photography service that specializes in newborn, child, and family photography. It is my mission to provide incredible pieces of art that will be cherished for generations to come. My photos capture real life moments and focus on the emotional connection between family. I am so glad you’re here and I cannot wait to work with you!

Meet the artist

Marie has a background in Art and a Master’s Degree in Early Childhood Special Education. She spent her early career as an Early Childhood Special Education teacher and Kindergarten teacher. In addition, she has two young children of her own, Brandon and Alexandra (whom she named her business after). When she decided to pursue her love of photography as a business, she found her true passion a perfect mix of art and working with children and families! In her spare time, Marie and her family like to walk their dog Georgia, go mini golfing, and tell each other silly jokes.

What to expect

What can you expect during a photo session with Ally and B Photography? Well for one, you can expect to have fun! You can expect to hear some super lame “Dad” jokes (even though I’m not a dad, I am a mom and still get a kick out of lame jokes – some of which my kids and I may or may not have made up…just saying…). During a session with me, you can expect a few “traditional” photos where everyone is posed and smiling and looking at the camera, however, you can also expect to not be looking at the camera for most of the photo session. My work focuses on the people and the real emotional connections between them. You can expect to play games, laugh, tell stories, and snuggle your loved ones!

Booking details

Child and family sessions can be done outdoor or in my Naperville studio. Studio sessions are typically done on weekday mornings and outdoor sessions are typically done on weekday evenings to ensure the best light closest to sunset. I may be able to accommodate weekend sessions on a limited basis.

Sessions will be rescheduled due to inclement weather (i.e. rain, snow, extreme wind), but will not be for cloudy or overcast skies.

Outdoor sessions are typically done on weekday evenings, however, I may be able to accommodate weekend sessions on a limited basis.

In order to secure the session date, all clients must sign the contract and pay the retainer fee. The retainer fee is 50% of the session cost and will be applied to the final balance. The final balance is due two days before the session.

After booking, clients will receive a seasonal outfit guide to help them coordinate their look for the session. We will also discuss outfits prior to the session. I am always happy to assist in outfit planning.

Specially priced mini sessions are held throughout the year on select dates only.
