Fort Sheridan Forest Preserve Family Photos

The J family’s sunset family session at Fort Sheridan Forest Preserve in Lake Forest, Illinois was filled with warm evening light, Lake Michigan views, and plenty of sweet moments with their little one.

We started along the beach before wandering through the tall grasses as the sun began to set. Fort Sheridan is such a beautiful location for family photography because there are so many different backdrops within the preserve, from the shoreline and wooded paths to the open fields and native grasses.

If you’re looking for a Chicago family photographer for natural, timeless family photos, Fort Sheridan Forest Preserve is a beautiful location just north of the city.
