Senior Session at Katherine Legge Park in Hinsdale with Christina Bailitz Photography — Professional Photographer in Tinley Park

Class of 2026 Oak Park River Forest Grad

You may think River Forest, isn’t she located in the south suburbs (Tinley Park). Yes I am a Southside girl but I travel!

I love working in the Chicagoland area and I am so thankful for client referrals which have created a large net of clients I get to work with throughout the Chicago area. I always say a referral is truly the best gift you can give a business owner because we all want to know the experience we are going to get before we walk in. So when you trust a friends good experience and invest in your own experience, it is such a win for both client and photographer in my case.

Two years ago I captured a group of friends from River Forest and since I have been able to work with these families again and their friends. Now it was this beautiful seniors turn to capture her senior season. As graduation is in sight and the winter weather seemed to break a little early in Chicago, we scheduled this gorgeous seniors session in mid-April. This location was the perfect example of how to make timing and location work beautifully. The structure and greenery starting to pop was the perfect blend at this hidden gem location.

While spring can be a busy season between college decisions (Congrats to this new Hawkeye) and senior activities and graduation, with a little planning and flexibility we will work together to create your senior session.

She was an absolute joy to work with and so easy going even as we had to deal with a little wind. She was patient trusted the process and worked closely with me to create her senior session.
