Hi, I'm Caroline! Originally from Chicago's North Shore, I now live in Lakeview with my husband and our two kids.
One of my favorite things about parenthood is watching how quickly children grow and change. It seems like every stage is gone almost as soon as it arrives, which is what first inspired me to pick up my camera again. Photography has been an interest of mine since high school, but like many people, I eventually traded my camera for the convenience of an iPhone. Once I became a mom, I found myself wanting to preserve more of the everyday moments that make family life so special.
What started as a hobby quickly grew into something more. After taking classes at the Chicago School of Photography, practicing with friends and family, and spending plenty of time chasing my own kids around with a camera in hand, I decided to turn that passion into Caroline Wilson Photography.
As a parent, I've also been on the other side of the camera. I know the effort that goes into coordinating outfits, getting everyone out the door, and hoping for at least one photo where everyone is looking in the same direction. That's why I take a relaxed approach to family sessions. Rather than focusing on perfect poses, I aim to capture genuine moments and natural interactions that reflect your family as it is right now.
