Elle Baker Photography

Elle Baker Photography is a photographer in Homer Glen, IL, run by Laurie Baker, who specializes in newborn, family, maternity, and baby photography. She serves Chicago and the surrounding southwest suburbs, including Naperville, Hinsdale, New Lenox, and Frankfort. Her offerings include lifestyle sessions, Fresh 48 hospital and birthing center sessions, baby milestones, first birthday cake smash sessions, and boudoir photography through a separate business called Boudoir by Elle. Cake smash sessions include a mini cake from Orland Park Bakery. Laurie was drawn to photography nearly a decade ago and has built it into her career, drawing inspiration from film and fine art photography with a minimalist style, using neutral tones and textures to create emotive imagery. Her studio is a natural light space in Homer Glen, and she welcomes LGBTQ families.

The studio sits on West 159th Street in Homer Glen. Hadley Middle School is about a third of a mile away, and Homer Junior High School is roughly four-tenths of a mile further along. Homer Township Fire Department Station 2 is also nearby, and South Bell Road is about half a mile from the studio.

Laurie holds a rating of 5.00 across the reviews that have been left. She works Monday through Friday from 9 am to 4 pm and can be reached at 708-822-4687. The studio is a comfortable, natural light space used for maternity, newborn, and family portrait work, with outdoor sessions frequently taking place at Hickory Creek Preserve in Mokena, which she has called one of her favorite locations for sunset family portraits.
