Sweet little Caroline models the new Small Wonders onesie! This very cute design was created by Ashley at Fannie’s Closet in the Village of East Davenport. We hope to have onesies for girls and boys available in June. And anyone lucky enough to have a Trinity Medical Center ”baby of the week” will get one too!
It felt like Indian summer would never end …we took advantage of the mild weather and enjoyed outdoor sessions with babies and kids who didn’t have to bundle up! There’s something about autumn light that is just beautiful to behold and to photograph.
Thanks to all the families who took part in the Fearsome Photo Booth this weekend! It was so much fun seeing all the costumes. Here are some of our favorites from the evening…
Join us on Friday, October 29th for our Fearsome Photobooth! Bring your ghosts and goblins in for a fun Halloween photo at the Small Wonders studio. There’ll be tricks, treats and $10 4x6s*. Plus Bucktown is hosting Deadstock the same evening, so you may even see a few zombies in the hallway! 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. will be our photo times, but stick around Bucktown ’cause the fun lasts until 9. Hope to see you! Boo!
*Photos must be picked up the evening of the event. No gift certificates valid with this offer.
Small Wonders recently teamed up with Edwards Creative on the photography for these super-cool vehicle wraps. The top image was taken at Mac’s Tavern in Davenport, and used as a vehicle wrap for the owner’s RV. The bottom image was taken of the Rock Island High School marching band and used to wrap the band’s trailer. As much as we love our portrait work, it’s fun to work on commercial projects every now and then!

Ever heard the term everything old is new again? We have to admit that technology is the name of the game in our industry, but sometimes kicking it old school is just what the doctor ordered when it comes to getting creative. Quinn purchased this Mamiya camera (circa 1980) and actually dug up some good old–yes–FILM to shoot with! He couldn’t resist taking a few shots of this strikingly beautiful senior girl–also named Anne–with this manual exposure camera. “It’s manual everything,” says Quinn, who began his career shooting film. A few of our original clients may even remember the now antiquated contact sheet! But stay tuned, more images from the Mamiya will be cropping up from time to time. And no worries, all of the images will be available circa 2010–online that is. 
Vanessa looked absolutely gorgeous for her maternity session. She truly has that motherly glow. Congrats to the soon-to-be parents!
Stylish, beautiful Maggie! When I first met her, she was 8 and reading Harry Potter…now she’s college bound. Wow.
