Johna R Denault Photography

I have a knack for capturing natural photos that reflect your personality. You help to decide the best location, and I will help guide you as to the best time. I am very patient with children and adults alike. I never make you feel rushed and will make the session as calm as I can. One thing you will notice is that I will blend in with the family to the point in which you will forget that I am the photographer.

If you would like to learn more about my photography style, then please drop me a line and we can meet for coffee.

Throughout the years, I have received several awards for my dedication to photography. Most notably, I received an award in June 2010 from Lyons Township for outstanding community service for volunteering and participating in the Littlest Heroes Project. In December 2016, I received an award from the Kankakee Township Fire Protection District for outstanding photography work and dedication in the fire service. In addition, I was honored when, in March 2016 and 2018, I received awards for outstanding performance of photography duties and dedication to the Dwight Fire Protection District.

Hello! My name is Johna R. Denault, and I have been taking professional portraits for 14 years. I started my business in May 2008, although I have had a camera in hand since I was 12.

My love for photography led me to attend the College of DuPage in 1994 for film photography and in 2008 for digital photography. I have also been a volunteer firefighter since 1996 and have been able to merge these two passions when I became a fire department photographer 3 years ago.
