I grew up as the girl in art classes at school, collecting “how to draw” books and loving art projects. I joined dance in 6th grade and competed in high school, where I learned the beauty of expressing emotions in ways other than words. Later on in high school I became interested in architecture, and went to school for interior design. I spent four months in Europe, lucky enough to call the great city of Rome as my home. Between my art history classes and experiencing the beauty of such extravagant cities, my inspiration for photos began to evolve into something more than just trends and poses, but nostalgic and emotion filled photographs and stories.
I’ve had 5 years to find my style. Film, music, and architecture are what inspire me most. I’m a rom-com lover who falls in love with every character, a ’99 baby who wishes she grew up dancing in the 80’s, and an an interior designer who is forever fascinated by classic architecture and ornate design. I incorporate aspects of these 3 things in my work, making my photos and stories I tell feel nostalgic & timeless, full of meaningful emotion.
I am always catching the way architecture or natural elements can frame a composition, and how the magic of light and shadow can enhance the mood. I am driven by the emotions and atmosphere of the room, which play a critical role in the way I document your story. I want you to be able to immerse yourself into a photo when you look at my work - think of it as if you are flipping through an artful storybook.

I currently live in southwest ‘burbs of Chicago, making frequent drives and Metra rides to the city for sessions and weddings. I love the hustle of the city - the beautiful chaos and inspiration it brings - but I also love going home to the quiet life tucked away in the suburbs. Here you’ll find me spending time with my sweet fiance Ian (we’ve been together for 8 years and are getting married October 2025!), making one too many Target runs, browsing antique stores, and going out for more ice cream than my tummy can handle.
