Bellissima Chitchat

My Photo
Name: Priscilla
Location: Chicago, IL

My name is Priscilla O'Sullivan, and I'm the owner of Bellissima Photography. Recently married in 2003, I decided to pursue my first love, (before my husband :) and Bellissima was born! I chose the name because it means "beautiful" in Italian. What a perfect description for those moments that mean the most. I am married to an amazing guy who is constantly reminding me of how great I am, and I have a 3 year old daughter Kailee, and just expanded our family with the addition of our son, Rylan. That's the basic scoop on me. Keep checking the posts to find out more!

Jen and Nick's E-session

Hi Everyone!

Alright, here is an e-session I just did. Somehow we snuck it in inbetween all of this crazy weather we've been having, and we actually had a pretty nice day!
Jen and Nick found me online, and we immediately hit it off! What's even funnier, is that they live in the same neighborhood as my brother, just down the street. What a small world!

We were having so much fun just walking around, that I didn't realize how many pictures I had taken! They were complete naturals in front of the camera, so I think that may have had something to do with it! Here are some of my favorites from the session.
























Thanks guys for hanging out with preggo me!

Talk to you all soon!

Sarah and Thai

Hi Everyone,

Here is a wedding that I jus did, this is Sarah and Thai. They live in Arizona, but their families both live in the Chicago area. After this day, I don't think they'll ever move back to the windy city! Let me just tell you that it was THE coldest day I've ever shot a wedding. I could not feel my fingers, and the wind was brutal. And I was wearing a coat! So needless to say, we shot a lot indoors! :) These two were troopers though and ventured out for a few minutes to grab some great shots.

Thanks guys for letting me be part of your day! The rest is coming soon! Enjoy your blog post!

Ava is here!

Hi Everyone! Here is little Ava. She was about 10 days when we took photos, and she was my little "guinea pig" for some of my new props. She did an excellent job! Most babies sleep the entire time, but not Ava. She was actually alert most of the time, and when I tried to put her on her stomach, she was lifting her head straight up. This is one of my favorites from the session, she looked so adorable in that hat.

I shot Ava's parents wedding in October of 2007, so it's so wonderful to have your clients come back for the next stage in their life! Melissa and Jim
if you don't remember them check out the blog post from their wedding. Thanks so much for bringing little Ava to see me, she's absolutely beautiful!
