{Portraits In Place}

Unprecedented. Uncertain. Unknown. These are portraits-in-place: a documentation of love, family and hope while we shelter-in-place. “Settling into the new normal” “Surreal” “Lots of quality family time/ losing our minds 🤪“ “A bit crazy but overall surviving and doing just fine :)” “Bringing a baby into the world during a global pandemic has been more […]

Leah was a gorgeous bride last year, and now she is the cutest pregnant woman ever! I couldn’t get over how great she looked, perfectly petit with a big-ol-belly! We kept it simple, just focusing on classic shots that show off the beauty of motherhood. She was the perfect model, it was such a pleasure […]

Celebrity Chef on the rise!

I had a recent photo shoot with a very amazing couple, Kristie and Niall. They are an awesome husband and wife team, operating the restaurant “Firefly” in Effingham, IL.

Katakanlah

Ok, so I’m a little rusty at the fashion photography thing, even though that’s what I studied in school. I have been dabbling lately with a few fashion driven projects, and wanted to share the results from my latest photo shoot. I have had the opportunity to photograph many of the artists that have worked […]
