Chicago Wedding Photographer
Creating beautiful images
effortlessly
Let’s be real — wedding days can be a little chaotic, and my job is to be the calm in the storm (with a camera in hand). I’m not just here to take pretty pictures, I’m here to help you feel good, look good, and actually enjoy the whole experience.
I shoot mostly in a candid, documentary style capturing all the in-between moments, laughs, happy tears, and dance floor chaos. But I’ll absolutely help guide you into some classic portraits too, because those matter. The vibe? Natural, relaxed, and true to who you are. No stiff poses or awkward arms.
Couples usually tell me I make things feel easy, like having a helpful friend with a camera, who also knows where the best light is. Whether you need a bobby pin, a minute to breathe, or someone to wrangle your people for family photos, I got you.
If you're looking for a photographer who will match your energy, make you feel seen, and tell your story in an honest, beautiful way — I might just be your person.
Real love. Real moments. Beautifully photographed, just as you are.
My love of photography started young. Mainly with disposables and point and shoots, but I was always intrigued with capturing moments that were not planned or posed. Capturing raw emotions and past moments in one picture is a beautiful thing. My life moved fast and becoming a photographer just seemed like a pipe dream. It was, until my husband believed in me and gifted me my fist real camera. Since then I’ve been living my wildest dreams.

I would love to hear from you
A great photo should show what really happened. It should be full of emotion — the fun, the nerves, the unexpected stuff, the silliness, and all the big and little feelings that make your day yours.
So much goes into planning a wedding. All of your hard work won’t go unnoticed — I’ll capture it all. I want you to relive the moments you were part of, and see the ones you might have missed, like you were right there.
My approach is laid back, but I’m always ready for whatever the day throws our way. You have no idea how important your wedding day is to me. My focus is completely on you, so you can soak it all in and celebrate with the people who love you the most.
