Review - Carissa Berens

"Love Fairfax Photography! They are friendly and professional, and capture life in all their pictures. Thanks Jonathan :-)" - Carissa

Once again, we had the great opportunity to work with Tiffany and Koai. This time, focusing the majority of the photo shoot on their little girl Monroe Elyse. She is absolutely adorable! During this shoot, we were able to capture "a day in the life" of the family while also getting some really great portraits. Thank you again Matthews Family for inviting us into your home. We always enjoy working with you!

Justine - Chicago Actress

We recently had the pleasure of meeting up with an old friend. We met Justine while attending college back in Michigan. Justine moved to Chicago to continue her studies in theater. When she decided to have new head shots taken, she called us up. We had a great time shooting around down town Chicago. Keep an eye out for her in the next big show! She got real talent! Good luck Justine will all your endeavors!

New and exciting news for Fairfax Photography!

There are many new and exciting things happening with Fairfax Photography. We are in the process of starting an official website. Although Blogger has been very good to us, it's time to upgrade to a real site. We have secured a domain name and have hired a web designer. Hopefully the new website will be up and running by this spring!

Recently we've done several portrait shoots including head shots for our good friend Justine and a family portrait session with the Shalabi Family. Also we have recently ventured into the wonderful world of maternity photography! Tiffany and Koai are expecting a baby girl in April! Congratulations to you both!
