Ten Little Bluebirds Photography By Emily Cummings

Our Story

Ten Little Bluebirds is a full-service portrait studio nestled in the heart of Chicago and Naperville. We specialize in capturing the essence of life's most precious moments through fine art photography, focusing on maternity, newborns, babies, children, and families. Our modern, minimalist style allows us to highlight the authentic connections and genuine emotions that make each family unique.

Our Philosophy

Photography for us isn't just about taking pictures; it's about creating keepsakes. Each photograph tells a story, preserves a feeling, and becomes a treasured memory for generations to come. We believe that photography should be an investment, one that grows more valuable with time. We don't just photograph families, we help them tell their story.
