Capturing Life, Love & Legacy

Hi, I’m Ania

Welcome to Ania’s Little World Photography — a portrait studio specializing in newborn, maternity, family, events, sports, and branding photography in Algonquin, Illinois and the surrounding northwest suburbs of Chicago, including Crystal Lake, Huntley, Lake in the Hills, and beyond.

Photography, for me, is about more than beautiful images. It’s about slowing down and noticing the moments that often pass too quickly — the quiet bond between a mother and her baby, the laughter of children, the pride of parents watching from the sidelines, and the connections that define a family’s story.

My style is timeless, natural, and emotion-driven. I focus on creating photographs that feel genuine and meaningful — images that reflect who you are, not just how you look. Whether I’m capturing the softness of newborn days, the anticipation of motherhood, or the energy of a growing family, my goal is to create photographs that you’ll continue to cherish as time passes.

I believe the experience matters just as much as the final images. From our initial consultation to gentle guidance during your session, everything is designed to feel calm, supportive, and personal. For newborn and maternity sessions, I provide a carefully curated studio environment, including wraps, outfits, and wardrobe options, so you can arrive relaxed and simply enjoy the moment.

Every family, every story, and every season of life is different — and that’s what makes this work so special. I would be honored to help you preserve your memories in a way that feels true to you.

Let’s capture life, love, and the legacy you’re creating — one chapter at a time.

Your journey, your memories

    Intimate weddings deserve to be remembered with the same artistry as grand celebrations. I focus on capturing genuine emotions, candid moments, and the essence of your love story.

  • Headshot & Branding

    Show up confidently online and in business with headshots and branding photos that reflect the real you.”

  • Sports

    Every game is more than a score; it’s a story of passion, teamwork, and heart. It is not only the action on the field but also the quiet moments on the sidelines: the focus before the whistle, a shared smile, or the joy of a hard-earned victory.

Let me be a part of your family's journey through life's significant milestones.
