I took a trip to Lilacia Park in Lombard, this was my first time here….what a beautiful park!!
http://www.lombardparks.com/parks/lilacia.htm It makes the list of top parks to photograph at in the western burbs of Chicago, especially in the Spring when the Lilacs and Tulips are in full bloom. I had the opportunity to photograph my friend Rachel’s Daughter Ariaha. What a little bundle of joy….so much laughing and smiling…..and so much to explore!! Although we were there at the end of the spring tulip season and most were already gone, the colors of the last ones remaining were so saturated in the evening light, which made for some very lovely photographs.
Oh….and I can’t forget to mention my wonderful assistant Cassie who tagged along that day, who you may have recognized from the many pictures I have taken of her over the years; …thanks for helping me chase Arahia around:)
