Almost two years ago, I visited Jamie and Jose with their new baby boy, Ben, for his lifestyle newborn photography session. He was oh so snuggly and precious, and I loved watching them blossom in their new roles—baby Ben included! Fast forward to the arrival of their newest addition, Sam. Now, Ben is a beaming […]
I may photograph a lot of weddings, but I am just as in love with life’s in-betweens, too. I couldn’t wait to share these too-cute Chicago lifestyle family photos I did for a sweet running friend of mine and her beautiful family. They have their hands full in the best way during this stage of […]
What a beautiful day for a darling first birthday celebration starring Ellie! I feel like I just captured her precious newborn portraits, yet here we are at her first birthday photoshoot!

This family! You just can’t help but smile when you’re with them. And it’s been an absolute joy to witness their story from the very beginning! Molly and I were sorority sisters in college, and she’s a long-time friend of mine. I shot Molly and Kevin’s engagement session in 2019 and later their wedding day. […]

Have you ever met someone and instantly felt like long-lost friends? From the moment I […]
One of my favorite parts of being a wedding and lifestyle photographer—engagements, weddings, lifestyle, newborns, and beyond—is getting to know the people in front of my lens. I get a front-row seat to beautiful stories as they unfold. Life takes us all on our own unique journeys, and it’s an honor to be able to […]
