About Heidi Aubin Photography

I'm a lifestyle family and newborn photographer based in Wheaton, IL, serving the greater Chicago suburbs including Glen Ellyn, Naperville, Warrenville, Winfield, St. Charles, Lombard, Elmhurst, Downers Grove, Lisle, Hinsdale, Villa Park, Westmont, Western Springs, La Grange, Oak Brook, and Geneva.
I specialize in four main areas: lifestyle family photography, lifestyle newborn photography, high school senior portraits, and personal branding. Each session is relaxed, candid, and designed to capture genuine connection rather than stiff, posed shots.
Heidi Aubin Photography was established in 2011. I've spent over a decade photographing families, newborns, high school seniors, and business professionals throughout Wheaton and the surrounding Chicago suburbs.
My style is lifestyle-based — relaxed, candid, and true to life. My goal is for everyone to feel at ease during the session, because that's when the real connections and expressions come through. You won't get a lot of stiff, forced poses; you'll get authentic moments.

Family sessions are held outdoors, typically an hour or two before sunset for the best natural light. Popular locations include parks and outdoor spaces around Wheaton, Glen Ellyn, Warrenville, and Naperville, IL.
Before your photo session, I'll send you guidance on wardrobe, timing, and how to help your kids feel comfortable, so the whole experience feels easy rather than stressful — for you and for them.
Yes, mini family sessions are available in addition to full sessions. Details and pricing are on the Family Photography page.

Yes. Newborn sessions can take place in the comfort of your own home, or outdoors during the warmer months if you'd prefer. All immediate family members are welcome and encouraged to be part of the session.
I recommend booking while you're still pregnant, ideally in your second or third trimester, so we can pencil in a tentative date and I can plan around your due date. Newborn sessions are best captured within the first couple of weeks after birth.
Absolutely — I love including siblings, parents, and even the family dog in newborn sessions. These early family moments are some of the most meaningful to look back on.
No need to prepare anything. I will bring wraps.
