BLUSH for Monica & Andy | Sam Berngard

The second shoot I did for my BLUSH collaboration with Monica & Andy was with one of Chicago’s top publicists – Sam Berngard of Boldface Communications. Sam is also part of Monica’s team and is due with her own little guy this September so we’d have it no other way than to feature her in our collection of inspiring moms.

Antlers were a theme around Sam’s home. I especially loved the faux deer head she had up on the wall as seen below.

“This feels so good! I never get a chance to just lay down and relax.” 

I feel ya girl. I feel ya.

And then after some photos at home, I followed Sam to work where she effortlessly prepped for a Glossed & Found event.

Thanks Sam for letting me follow you around for a morning!

xoxo
