Hello and welcome to the SKP Blog! My name is Sara and I am a Wedding & Portrait Photographer based in Chicago/Northwest Indiana. I've been blogging both professionally and personally since 2005.

When she first contacted me it was still chilly outside…but thoughts of Summer were already in both of our minds! When she chose her location to be a “beach” session…I just KNEW that I was going going to adore this family. The beach is my happy place and I love it when it’s also the […]
I have no excuse as to why it took me so long to post these! When you are blessed enough to be able to do what you love as your full time job though…sometimes work photography gets priority over personal photography. The weather in March was not ideal for Ben’s session so we pushed it […]
