Chicago + Suburbs soulful documentary + lifestyle photography
What an honor it is to continue to see families grow older and older. Sometimes it’s so hard to see time reflected back at you, but when you have been a part of someone’s journey since birth. Well that’s just beyond incredible (find gemma’s birth here) you can see how fast time really does fly, […]
Sometimes you get so lucky! So living in the middle of suburbian Chicago always leaves me uninspired to be frank. I’m constantly bugging my clients to head out to the beautiful outskirts of this State, most times this isn’t possible. Well when it comes to rad friends that encourage adventure and that want a different […]
The authenticity of this family is just so apparent, isn’t it? I had lunch with the beautiful Jazmine, and she just completely blew me away. She is someone who continuously is doing something to better her spiritual life and the one of her community. They are hella inspiring. Plus the hearts of those girls are […]
I met Lydia online. She was a part of a private and small Facebook group started on WebMD, aimed at coping with miscarriage. That one thing unified a group of about 12 of us. I’ve loved her ever since. She’s one of those girls that can see your point of view but then tell you […]
Oh man! this baby and those eyes. He smiled from the moment he arrived until he left. I had such a lovely time photographing this beautiful family. They truly made my job so so easy! I am so so glad that we pulled an early 8 am session for this one, the heat is unbearable […]
I could say a gazillion things about this family, how beautiful and well behaved the kiddos were and talk about the parent’s connection and all of the love they emphasized during our time together. But I think that the images speak for themselves. You can take a peek at what makes this family a wonderful from […]
So at the end of 2016, I was in one of the worst creative ruts of my career. I say career because I’ve finally owned up to the title of Artist. But, that’s a topic for another day. I looked at my work from the past two years and it was full of conforming images. Stuff […]
My excitement has not worn off yet. I got a text on that Friday, at around 3 ish after a whole week of uncertainty and lack of sleep. I was worried like crazy that I would sleep through it. I’m guessing that its normal for birth photographers to feel like that. This was the first […]
So last year I dragged my family to Click away. I’ve been holding onto these images for no reason at all. Other than feeling overwhelmed to blog them. So I finally narrowed down some faves and got my act together, time just flies and its already going to be a year since them. While I don’t […]
TIME JUST FLIES WHEN YOU’RE HAVING FUN! I’m in awe of time, still. Even after having my two babies, I can never believe that time actually flies as quick as it does. I have the honor to capture all of sweet little H’s first year of life and even when he was in his […]
