Choose Your Photographer in Chicago

I'm a fun-loving, impression-nailing, smart as a whip, fun-having, caring person looking to tell stories & create memories for as many people as possible. I have a very real and journalistic style of photography, always on the look-out for those most authentic glances, the details that bring you right back to that place, and the light that you can't find anywhere else. I've shot over 50 weddings and was selected as a Bride's Choice award recipient in 2013.

My passion is to capture the moment at the click of a button. I like to do creative and candid portraits, always exploring the beauty of natural light. I know what beautiful looks like, and I can see yours. I know how to bring it forward, and how to capture it with my camera. I will give you guidance on natural posing and the confidence to feel yourself in front of my lens. I have been fortunate that my life and work has taken me to some of the most beautiful destinations across Asia, America and Europe. I love to watch and explore. As a Getty Images exclusive contributor, my photographs have been published extensively worldwide in a large variety of media. 

I am a Chicago-based photographer who loves traveling, animals, coffee, and taking as many pictures as I possibly can! My style is candid, but I can also set up a great posed shot when needed. I love bright colors, dreamy atmospheres, and a couple who loves to laugh and have fun with each other! I think that always makes for the best photos.

I'm a laid-back, experienced and versatile photographer who loves capturing images that tell a story. Whether I'm covering a news event or your vacation, I strive to make interesting, beautiful and intimate images. With every photo shoot, my goal is to have fun with my subjects and, most importantly, make you feel comfortable. I mainly work for magazines and newspapers photographing documentary projects, news and editorial portraits. I've won numerous local and national awards from news and wedding organizations like the National Press Photographers Association, The Knot and Wedding Wire.

I have spent years using my camera as a means of documenting my travels throughout the world and have since specialized in travel and lifestyle photography. I constantly strive to convey spontaneity and creatively depict narrative in my work.

I'm the best friend you didn't know you had, wrapped in a professional photographer you didn't know you needed! My photography style has always been to tell the story unfolding before me. I love a good story and know the best are those shared with family and the closest of friends when they gather to celebrate.

I am an artist at heart, and so I'm always looking for the next opportunity to create something beautiful, whether it's with a camera, an instrument, or anything else. I am in love with the creative process and I'm always eager to explore unfamiliar techniques and mediums, hoping to discover something new and unexpected.
