It really is as simple as the name suggests.

But this month it is for our very lucky red-headed, freckle-faced kids. 

Red-heads make up less than 2 percent and they deserve to be celebrated with a beautiful portrait - no matter how old they are!

The simply littles project was created for a private gallery showing at the Dana House, a Frank Lloyd Wright home in Springfield, IL, in May. Nine photographers from the US and Canada were chosen to participate. I displayed two portraits in the gallery show. There was live music and hors d'oeuvres. The 20x20 portraits were printed and matted, displayed on easels throughout the home.

It was a complete success.

We are expanding the concept to celebrate relationships and the special people in your life. And this month we are celebrating every South Side Chi-rish kid we can find!

If this resonates with you, we would love to talk to you!

I truly felt like I was looking into the face of God with every child I photographed. There was a ton of personality, and it was easy to capture these wonderful images. 

Parents cried when they saw them. Happy tears, of course. And the portraits are now living in the homes of these families. I am so happy these children get to see these portraits every day in their home as they grow up. These portraits will only become more meaningful and valuable as time marches on.

After all, these children, just a month later, probably are a little taller, with a few less teeth, and look quite different. Time doesn't stop.

You are able to commission your own portraits of your children or grandchildren, nieces or nephews by reaching out to Jean at 708.296.2170, or by emailing jean@jeanlachatphotography.com

I hope you love these portraits as much as I do.
