My Photography HERO!

I don't remember how I found her, but for about a year and a half now, I've been stalking her blog. She's a world renowned children's portrait photographer based in Chicago and, in my opinion, she's the best there is.

Her name is Audrey Woulard, so check her out if you love breathtaking, informal portraits of babies and kids.

And since a picture's worth 1000 words, here are a few of the photos I've pirated off her site:

I totally dig these cute hats - I don't know if the parents provide them, or if Audrey does, but she has about 237 different ones.

And she takes newborns in their own environments.


I love that the clothes and settings are so casual.


THE EYES! they're killin' me!


She also specializes in getting fun, natural interaction between siblings.


And one more, especially yummy one for the road.........


Thanks Audrey, for your inspiration.
