Welcome to Emily Katherine T Photography Journals

I have been so busy with newborns! It seems like Peoria had a baby boom in the early spring, so newborn photos are keeping me busy. Here is a look at a few recent sessions!

Tessa and her sweet family were a joy to have in the studio. Newborn session are quickly becoming a favorite of mine, and I just love getting my baby fix.

Spring is in the air, and it seems everyone is having a baby! Let me tell you, I am here for it. Maternity has always been a favorite of mine, so I’m in heaven. The best part about photographing maternity clients? Meeting their sweet little babies at their newborn shoot. I have so many sweet little ones on my schedule!

Maternity sessions don’t have to be traditional. For this session, we took a more intimate approach and chose a studio session. These images really celebrate the beauty in pregnancy.

I’m so excited to share some sessions shot in my brand new studio centrally located in Peoria. I love being able to combine a beautiful lifestyle setup with the more traditional newborn posed style of photography.

Shooting a branding session for Smith + Co Studios in Peoria Heights was an absolute dream. These four ladies are opening a new location, so new headshots and group photos were on the agenda.

March can be a challenging time for photos in Peoria and Central Illinois, but we got really lucky with a gorgeous, sun-soaked evening for Tony and Elizabeth’s maternity photos.

Mommy and Me Sessions can be newborn sessions too! For this little cutie’s session, we made sure to capture to the beautiful bond between mom and daughter along with the more traditional posed newborn shots.

When Peoria weather brings you ice and snow, you take advantage! It was a gorgeous winter wonderland, and we had the best time during this family’s snow mini session.

Shooting in the snow is a great way to add some variety to your family photos. There are many benefits to scheduling your session during the “off season.”
