This wonderful life we live is meant to be celebrated, documented, and commemorated. The photographs we take are to be passed down among generations, inspiring those after us to live in the moment, live with love, and live with grace. Your story you share with me is to be thoughtfully, creatively, and intentionally preserved.
People say I’m an old soul. Born in the wrong generation. Different from people my age. Art and creativity are deep within my roots. I am heavily inspired by the beauty of architecture, film, and music, and have an immense passion for story telling.
I can’t wait to learn about you, your love story, and all your quirks - documenting it in the most authentic, real, and emotional way.

Meghan is the real deal!!! If you want a gallery filled with the most beautiful, intimate, and detail-oriented photos, Meghan is your perfect choice. From our engagement session to the very end of our wedding night, Meghan captured our love story with such grace and precision. She instantly made us feel at ease in front of the camera, allowing us to be our true selves and it shows!! Throughout the wedding day, Meghan was not only a skilled photographer but also a supportive sounding board, keeping us on track and capturing the moments we truly wanted. I can't stop admiring the photos, and they will be treasured for a lifetime! I can't wait to show our kids and grandkids one day - and can't wait for her to continue to capture our family moments!! We feel so honored to have worked with Meghan and eagerly anticipate the day her incredible work graces the cover of Vogue Weddings and beyond!!

I can't even fully express how amazing Meg is at what she does!!! She was my absolute dream wedding photographer and I feel so lucky we were able to have her not only capture our day but give attention and care to every single little detail. She went above and beyond with our engagement photos, helping us plan our timeline, and guiding us on our wedding day. She is the sweetest soul with a natural eye for beauty. We couldn't have asked for anything more!!
Maddie & Cody
Meghan was absolutely everything we could have asked for in a photographer! She was encouraging all day, handled our organized chaos with grace, and leaned into our wedding party's silliness so wonderfully. We had multiple family members come to us during the reception and even after the wedding to compliment her professionalism and kindness as well. She captured our day so beautifully and our love so strongly. We could not have asked for someone better to be such an impactful part of our day. She truly cares about your day as much as you do -- that shows during the process and in your gallery!
Autumn & Brandon
We couldn’t be happier that we chose Meghan to capture our special day! Her unique style and artistry truly shine through every photo, and each time we look at them, it feels like we’re reliving those precious moments all over again. Meghan made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, offering helpful tips along the way to bring our vision to life. Her organization and attention to detail meant we didn’t miss a single cherished shot with family, friends, or each other. Her documentary-style approach perfectly captures the joy, love, and laughter that filled the day. We wholeheartedly recommend Meghan to anyone looking for a talented photographer for a couples' shoot or to capture their wedding day!
Bridget & Chris
Where do I start with Meghan?! It was very serendipitous that we found each other - but from the beginning of our communications everything was very clear, professional and direct. She is truly a professional, but the warmest one I've ever met! When we finally met in person it was like meeting an old friend - because of that, being in front of her camera felt like a fun activity and there were no nerves. She knows how to work your angles, be creative and have fun while doing it. I never would've thought that me and my fiance could have so much fun while taking photos but it truly was an afternoon of fun that I will never forget. My favorite part about Meghan is that she is so creative - so you feel excited that she is about to create something very cool. She gave the perfect amount of direction while also not making the photoshoot feel too forced. It was a very organic experience. We cannot wait to work with Meghan in the future again!
Cherie & Eranio
This was our first shoot with Meghan and I believe we will be coming back! From the start, she made sure to get to know my fiancé and I, what our interests were, how our date nights look, and what we do for downtime. From there we worked together to create the beautiful day we were so lucky to capture. When we first met for our shoot, Meghan was so welcoming and immediately made us feel comfortable. We've never had professional photos done and Meghan made this a wonderful experience. I would recommend her over and over again!
Izabel & Kaleb
We have had the pleasure of knowing Meghan since our college days. It has been such a wonderful experience seeing Meghan’s photography grow and evolve over time. When we got engaged, we knew that we wanted Meghan to capture it all. From the beginning, Meghan has always been so thoughtful and dedicated. She spends time before your session to really get to know your purpose and vision. She not only guides you during your sessions to get the best look, she is also meticulous when editing and styling her photos to capture your true essence and intention. Her photography is timeless and classic, all while feeling fresh and new. Her photos are truly a work of art that you will want hanging on your wall for the rest of your days.
Jenny & Colin
My experience was incredible. I felt as if Meg knew what she was doing and was everywhere all at once. She captured my day in memories, telling a story. I can’t imagine working with anyone else for this special day. I felt as if Meg was hiding getting the perfect photos that I didn’t even notice! She was incredible.
Tori & Michael
Meghan is such an incredible photographer! She has such a talent for storytelling and I still cannot believe how amazing our photos are! I wanted a photographer to capture not only our love but our love for Chicago and our life here. Meghan did exactly that. Her suggestions for locations was not something I had even thought of but like I said, she really is a storyteller. We are so awkward in front of the camera and we usually don't take photos but we felt so comfortable with Meghan and she was so patient and helped us pose when we didn't know how. Meghan also took on the task of trying to photograph us and our three borderline feral dogs and her patience with them was unmatched! I could not be more grateful for her. I'm truly in awe of Meghan's talent.
Sophie & Brandon
Meghan is a bundle of positive energy who never fails to put you at ease when she’s behind the camera. Moments which feel genuine are always hard to capture, but Meghan avoids making you feel like you’re posing or “saying cheese” to capture exactly those sorts of moments. She is generous with her time and expertise and went above and beyond to ensure we were happy with our photos. Meghan did a terrific job and we highly recommend her for any of your photo needs!
Lea & Matthew
I have had photos done by Meg now three times and it is safe to say I’ll be coming back! She makes everything seem so casual which is totally my vibe. She strives to make you feel comfortable and completely yourself in front of the camera. Not to mention her talent is out of this world! You will find yourself looking through your gallery multiple times and finding a new favorite! Her complete eye for design and passion for photography make her simply one of the best.
Hannah & Connor
Meghan was so sweet and bubbly from the second we had our consultation. We love her editorial style and loved how “unposed” her photos were. The day off was unbearably hot and buggy in our location, but she made it so relaxing and fun for my fiancé and me. Both of us had never had professional photos done before, so we were nervous but Meghan brought such a fun and welcoming energy that we immediately felt comfortable in front of the camera.
Makenna & Michael
There are plenty of things to potentially stress about on your big day, however, worrying about Meghan catching all of the important shots was absolutely not one of them. I knew I could trust her completely. Meghan is extremely talented, creative, and pays such good attention to the details. We are so in love with all of the photos and couldn't imagine our wedding day being captured more perfectly.
Brynti & Zack
We cannot be more happy with our experience with you. You’ve seriously left a huge imprint on our lives and felt we will cherish our photos and the memory of taking these photos with you. You’re just a light/joy to work with. Super easy to talk to and we look forward with working with you again in the future.
Jess & Aaron
Working with Meghan was such a great experience! She started off with a consultation where she wanted to get to know me and my fiancé and what our vision was for our engagement shoot. She was super responsive to messages and made us feel confident before and during the shoot! She hyped us up, gave us little previews during the shoot and that got us so excited for the final products. I highly recommend Meghan’s work! I can’t wait to print these photos and hang them up so I can stare at them all day ;)
