Welcome to Broderick Photography!

In 2003, I opened my own photography studio in Manteno about an hour south of Chicago, and I’ve basically had baby snuggles and camera in hand ever since. These days, you’ll find me in my cozy Manteno home studio photographing sweet newborns and babies, and out around the Chicagoland area capturing families just as they are messy, joyful, and full of personality.

Over the years, I’ve also teamed up with marketing agencies on big brand campaigns, which means I know how to manage all the moving pieces and still keep things feeling easy, natural, and actually fun.

Today, I blend both worlds photographing newborns, babies, and families, while also creating content for children’s brands and women-owned creative businesses. I bring a mix of technical skill, a designer’s eye, and real-life storytelling to every session so your photos feel like you, not stiff or overdone.

My goal is simple make it easy, make it fun, and give you images you’ll love forever. I’m so excited to create something beautiful with you.
