Capturing the essence of you and your family is important to me. I want your portraits to be real moments that capture the spirit of your family so they can be preserved for a lifetime.

I’m a Chicagoan that has always been a creative. I’ve always loved taking photos of my family, friends and pets. Seeing what can be captured in a photo, hearing and seeing the happy reaction of people with my work, makes me happy.

"So what’s your favorite kind of shoot?" I get asked this many times. My absolute fav type of session is for babies. I love watching them grow up to see how much they’ve changed! But that’s not the only kind of shoot I like! I think pregnancy is so beautiful but many pregnant woman are insecure with their bodies. I want them to see the beauty through my work. Nothing can be more fun than a kids shoot! Although I have to admit, the terrible twos can be challenging but kids have so much personality! From the giggling to sticking their tongue out, I want to capture it all!

Many of my clients are surprised at how much patience I have with their children. It must be because I just love babies and kids! You might even see me crawling on the floor playing with them! I’m skilled at observing who they are while capturing that special moment. Photography is something I love and find myself wanting to do all the time. I look forward to capturing your special moments and one of a kind images.
