Per my new routine for family photo shoots with this family, it was cold and heavily raining last Monday. I don’t think we had a single date this entire year set for photos when it wasn’t raining! Luckily, Katya had the foresight to come up with a fantastic indoor setting for this session: The Crystal Gardens at Navy Pier. I had never shot there before, but I have to say it’s already my new favorite indoor public option. A welcoming, accommodating staff and absolutely beautiful light. It was the perfect setting for this adorable family. Thanks for another great time, Katya and Eric! It was wonderful seeing you four again. Happy holidays!
