April Kitchin Photography: Specializing in children, family, and event photography in Chicago

My photo
Chicago, IL 60625, United States
I am not like other photographers who say they have loved photography their entire lives and this was their passion from a young age. To be honest I just started photography at the age of 28. It's something I have thought about for a long time, but thought I could never afford to do it. What really motivated me to start taking pictures was the sudden death of my 24 year old brother about 3 years ago. After he was gone I cherished every picture that was taken of him since the day he was born. I was very scared that time would go on and I would forget what he looked like and the memories we shared together. Of course my two brothers were being tough guys and did not like their picture taken. I am so glad now that I forced them to take the time to do it. I am so blessed with the eye for photography that I want to share my gift with others. You never know when you or your loved one's last day is on earth, so cherish every single moment of your life. Dedicated to Eric Kitchin (2/6/82-4/29/06)

What Tiffany thought was going to be a few pictures in Nashville, turned into a full photoshoot! I had a great time and especially enjoyed the people of Nashville. Enjoy!

Jake and A.J.

Jake and A.J. are great little boys! They have more energy than I think I have ever had. It was a pleasure being able to capture their everyday lives. I hope this is something their family can cherish for many years to come.

The end result are images that will forever warm your heart and grace your walls for years to come.

Photography of Maternity, Newborns, Infants, Babies, Toddlers, Children and Families

April Kitchin Photography strives to make each photograph a piece of art. April consistently finds joys in the challenges of making each piece unique and each experience memorable. To me photography and the experience is less about a piece of paper to remember today by and more about a custom piece of artwork to remember a stage of your lives by. I am about the memories surrounding the images as much as the images themselves.
