Sweet baby boy #2 is already so loved.

I’ve had the absolute honor of capturing both of Mom’s maternity sessions, and getting to watch her family grow is pretty special. She is just as gorgeous on the inside as she is on the outside, and somehow pregnancy looks so good on her.

We kept this session simple and beautiful with a little nature, golden light, and plenty of that beautiful mama glow.

And one of my favorite J Hull Photography perks? Every maternity session includes complimentary access to the J Hull Maternity Client Closet, so you have beautiful options to choose from for your session.

If you’re looking for a Central Illinois maternity photographer or planning a newborn session in Central Illinois, I’d love to help you document this season of your growing family.

A little piece of Mom, a little piece of baby girl.

One of my favorite things about this sweet newborn session was incorporating family turquoise into both Mom’s maternity session and baby girl’s newborn portraits—but in their own special way.

Mom wore her own meaningful pieces during her maternity session, and for baby girl’s session, she chose different turquoise pieces just for her. Two generations, two beautiful details, and so much family history woven into their photos.

This is why I love making newborn sessions personal. It’s not just about photographing a tiny baby—it’s about including the little things that make your family yours. The heirlooms, the memories, the details, and the love.

From maternity portraits to those first precious newborn days, these moments go by way too fast.

You NEED to check this boutique out! So many cute things for fall!

We keep hearing the same thing from everyone who comes into the boutique…

“You need to get the word out — people need to know this is here!” ❤️

And we agree! We’re posting regularly on Facebook, Instagram and TikTok, sharing in local small business groups, and doing everything we can to introduce more people to Stella.

But there’s one thing that works better than any advertisement we could ever pay for…

YOU. Word of mouth. ✨

If you’ve been in and loved what you found, please tell a friend! Share one of our posts, tag someone who would love Stella, or even just give our posts a like or comment. Those little things help our posts reach so many more local people.

We’re working hard to make Stella a fun little shopping destination right here in Pekin — and every time you spread the word, you’re helping this small business grow.

Thank you for cheering us on, shopping with us, and helping more people discover Stella. ⭐

One day they're placed in your arms.
The next, they're smiling.
Then crawling.
Then running.
Photographs freeze the moments that move far too quickly.
Newborn portraits become family treasures for generations.

Prom night done right!

The dresses? Absolutely stunning.
The weather? Couldn’t have been more perfect.

Add in good food, great friends, and hopefully a playlist that actually hit… yeah, that’s a night you don’t forget

Here’s to memories made, heels kicked off, and just enough chaos to make it fun!

Some sessions just hit a little deeper 🤍

This sweet boy was wrapped in so much love today… not just from the arms around him, but from the memory of someone watching over him. Posed with his grandpa’s favorite deer — a quiet, powerful reminder that love doesn’t leave… it just changes how it shows up.

And let’s be honest… this little guy is already living his best life with TWO big sisters. Harper and Haisley have officially claimed their new role as full-time protectors, snack sharers, and professional snugglers.

A whole lot of love in one tiny frame.

Double the giggles, double the trouble… and maybe someday, double the ducks 🦆

These sweet twin girls are already pros at sticking together—whether it’s snuggles now or early mornings in a blind later on. Give them a few years and they might be trading bows for camo and bottles for thermoses

For now, it’s all soft blankets, tiny fingers, and matching cuddles… but something tells me these two are going to grow up a little wild, a little adventurous, and completely unstoppable

One year of love. One year of laughter. One very loved little sister turning into a big personality.

Happy first birthday, beautiful girl — your story is just beginning.
