It’s finally done! Well for the most part. We have literally days before our baby girl gets here. It took me a while to organize and set up her nursery but finally got to take photos of the finish results. I love spending time here already and can’t wait to have her here to share […]

This was the most relaxed, yet sweetest and intimate wedding I’ve shot so far. Thanks to Covid, Kristine and Nick’s wedding had to shrink down to a backyard wedding. But a smaller wedding means more time to enjoy the day and details. Kristine and Nick celebrated with their closest family and friends at her parents […]

I didn’t want to miss out on the sunflowers this year and Cantingy Park has a beautiful sunflower patch in their gardens. It was perfect for both Jasmine and Miguel. The weather was perfect for their engagement session here! I met Jasmine while working at Target and the photographer in me always thought she’d photograph […]

Lately I have been loving Bode Lake in Streamwood during the summer for portraits. It was the perfect weather for first time family portraits for the Aguliar’s.

Summer sunset engagement session in Schaumburg Illinois and surrounding areas.

I have learned, while living in Chicago, that the weather will never corporate with you, but that was not the case for Nathan & Courtney. When Courtney found me on social media we both did not know that we attended the same church a few months before. Being a new person at a new church […]
