Meet Jen

A little about me: I’m a dog mom (my dogs run the house, let’s be real) and a former nanny who knows exactly how to handle toddler meltdowns and shy smiles alike. My love for photography started young—give me a stack of photo albums and I’d happily lose hours flipping through them. My parents’ wedding photos, lazy Sundays with my grandma, the Christmas morning chaos—I loved how every image told a story and made me feel like I was right there.

That’s exactly what I aim to do for you: create images that are real and full of the love you feel for your favorite people. Whether it’s the tiny toes of your newborn, the big personalities of your kiddos, or the perfectly imperfect magic of your whole family together, I’m here to capture it all.

If you’re in Chicago or the surrounding suburbs—or Iowa City—and want to schedule an in-home newborn session or a family photo session that feels relaxed, natural, and fun, let’s chat! I can’t wait to help you capture those fleeting moments.
