About:

Born and raised in Chicago, I’ve had a passion for photography since childhood. Specializing in lifestyle, portrait, family and event photography, I love telling stories and capturing people as they truly are—natural, confident, and full of personality. My approach is all about authenticity, creating images that feel effortless and tell a genuine story.

Comfort:

When it comes to a photoshoot, I believe in collaboration and flexibility. I always encourage input from my clients and make sure to offer guidance and direction to bring out your best in every shot. Throughout the session, I show images to ensure you're happy with how things are going, and we can make adjustments when necessary along the way. My goal is to create a relaxed atmosphere where you feel comfortable, confident, and involved in the process from start to finish.

Favorite Locations:

I love shooting downtown by the Riverwalk, near the "Honeycomb" in Lincoln Park, or at a trendy cafe. Parks, indoor spaces with great natural light, and nice lobbies also make for great spots.
