These two gals were too awesome… so they tied for second. Congrats Aubrey Bence and Sabrina Asch! Aubrey’s photo is something we have never seen before and absolutely love.

Bella Life…at school
Bella Life…is now at school!!!
We want to capture the REAL spirit and beauty of your child at school, using natural window light, and experienced free-lance photographers with professional grade equipment. We use upholstered chairs, rugs and blankets for use in photographs to turn your child’s school picture day into a mini professional photo shoot…producing images of heirloom quality. In addition to photographing each student individually, we offer the service of photographing siblings together. This allows for our clients to use those photos for holiday cards, family gifts, and home portraits. For more information on how to bring Bella Life…at school to your educational facility, please call 888-455-7826

June Photographer’s Contest
Every month we host a photo contest for our photographers. We are constantly blown away by the talent of our photographers. It’s soooo difficult to pick a winner. The winner will be posted on our blog at the first of each month. First place winners receive a $75.00 gift certificate to the store/spa/restaurant of their choice. Second place will receive a $50 gift certificate.
There are two divisions of the contest– Bella Life and Bella Baby. Bella Baby is the new face of hospital baby portraiture. We bring experienced free-lance photographers into the hospitals to capture your baby’s first photograph with a natural, artistic style. Bella Life helps you remember the “real” moments of your ife. Bella Life begins where Bella Baby Photography ends. We document first steps, first times with no training wheels and last hugs before they leave home.

First place for June’s Bella Life contest goes to Pam Schofield of Michigan! Who says family only consists of humans? Man’s best friend is always proud to welcome the new addition.

Your little angel comes into this world so tiny. Anyone would be happy to look back at these photos on the first day of college… just a reminder on how fast time goes by. Chicago’s Kristen Shaw took this photo of baby’s first day. She is awarded first place in the Bella Baby Photographer’s Contest.

Second place winner, Julie Melka (Chicago), exhibits beautiful light in this photo. This shot captures such innocence as daddy gently holds his precious gift.

Talk about a ham for the camera! This grin says “full belly and dry diaper”. Sue Partynksi (Chicago) receives an honorable mention for June’s Photographer’s Contest.
