Dear Photographer Interview | Newborn Photographer in Chicago

Dear Photographer Feature

Oh my goodness.  When Dear Photographer asked to feature my simple newborn images I literally looked around and said ‘me?!’.  I am truly honored and so incredibly grateful for this opportunity.  This community of photographers are some of the most talented artists I have ever seen.  I have been studying their work for years and years and I certainly don’t feel worthy of being in their line up.  To read my interview with Dear Photographer, check out their blog write up here!

‘Minimalism is about intentionality, not deprivation. ~unknown’.  I apply this to my everyday life as well.  Walking through my studio, you would think the walls would be covered in framed artwork but it’s not.  It’s very much a blank canvas…. And I dig it.  xx ~L

A passage from the interview

‘Newborns themselves are my inspiration.  They are a world of possibility and are extraordinarily beautiful.  I cherish the time I spend with each baby and family, and I make it my purpose to capture every single detail that makes them so incredibly special.  I have learned over the years that being passionate about the subject you are capturing is just as important as being passionate about the craft.’
