My Story
My Story
I started my business as a studio boudoir photographer, but in 2011, a friend asked me to photograph her family during a Thanksgiving dinner because her grandma was critically ill, and it was their last gathering. I put on my long lens, hung out in the corner of the room, and captured memories. You can imagine how priceless those images became. Collecting memories and telling stories has been my passion and obsession ever since, and wedding photography provided the perfect opportunity to be a storyteller.
Weddings are my bread and butter, and I absolutely love capturing them. Yes, it's exhausting to be the constant decision-maker and lead the entire day. Yes, it's hard to be on my feet all day, and yes, it comes with toooooo much responsibility (seriously, how many "o"s are enough?!). But I thrive in the chaos. It brings out the creativity in my soul, and meeting new people every week makes this job incredibly rewarding.
My why
I have a special respect for stand-up comedians. They have to be in the moment, tell a story, make people laugh (or think), lead the entire audience, and keep their energy up throughout the performance. There is no room for mistakes, Yet, they do what they love, using words, facial expressions, and body movements to perform a story. In essence, they draw people’s attention to something they’ve noticed and feel compelled to share.
I am not a funny girl; I wish I were. I've tried a few times, but nope! Despite my efforts, humor is not for me (although my son laughs at my silly jokes all the time, and that makes me a proud mom).
But I love stories. I love to tell people’s stories.
As a Photographer, I knew I could be a great storyteller. I see details and frame everything in my head with artistic composition. I understand colors, shades, light, and reflections. I capture emotions and reactions, and I appreciate the beauty of human connections. Nothing, not even a pandemic, can hinder the love people have for one another, and that is a story worth telling.
I may not have the talent for being on stage, so I got a camera. Through my lens, as a dedicated Chicago Wedding Photographer, I narrate stories that often bring tears of joy to those who see them.
