Choose your moment

Different reasons. Same goal: photos that feel like you.

Pick the type of session that fits what you’re celebrating. I’ll help shape the wardrobe, location, posing, and overall visual direction from there.

01 · SENIORS + GRADUATION

Make senior year look like you.

High school senior photos, college graduation portraits, cap-and-gown images, and polished portraits with personality — without the stiff yearbook-photo energy.

02 · ENGAGEMENTS + ANNIVERSARIES

Look like a couple — not a pose.

Connected, relaxed portraits for engagements, anniversaries, save-the-dates, or simply documenting the two of you in this chapter.

03 · FAMILY VIBES

Your people. Your connection.

For 2–8 people. Family portraits can be polished without feeling stiff — with direction that still leaves room for real interaction, personality, and connection.

04 · PERSONAL CREATIVE PROJECTS

You don’t need a milestone.

Birthday portraits, editorial ideas, confidence shoots, and personal concepts. Bring the idea you’ve had saved for months. We’ll shape the visuals.

Family Vibes

Family photos can feel like your family.

Not every frame has to be everyone standing in a row and smiling at the camera. We can mix the polished portraits you’ll want to print with smaller moments, interaction, personality, and the way you naturally connect with each other.

“I don’t know how to pose.”
Good. You don’t need to.

That part is my job. I’ll guide posture, hands, movement, expression, and the little adjustments that make a big difference. For couples and families, I’ll also give you simple prompts that create interaction so the session doesn’t feel like an hour of “say cheese.”

Chicago portrait photographer

Studio in Evanston. On location from Chicago toward Milwaukee.

Portrait and family sessions are available in the Evanston studio and at approved on-location settings throughout Chicago, the North Shore, and select Milwaukee-area dates. A clean studio keeps the focus completely on you, while city streets, lakefronts, parks, campuses, and meaningful locations can give the session a more personal feel.

If you’re not sure what fits your senior portraits, graduation photos, engagement or anniversary portraits, family photos, or creative concept, we’ll figure it out during planning.

Will you help me pose?

Yes. Every session is guided. I’ll direct posing, expression, movement, hands, posture, and small adjustments throughout the shoot.

Which package should I book?

Portrait Vibes starts at $400 for 1–2 people. Family Vibes starts at $800 for groups of 2–8 people. Add-on options are available.

Can couples book Portrait Vibes?

Yes. Portrait Vibes is designed for 1–2 people and works well for engagements, anniversaries, save-the-date portraits, and couples photos.

Can I book senior or graduation photos?

Yes. Portrait Vibes can be built around high school senior portraits, college graduation photos, cap-and-gown images, or a mix of graduation and personal looks.

Where can we take the photos?

Sessions can take place in the Evanston studio or at an approved on-location setting in Chicago, the North Shore, or select Milwaukee-area locations.

The reason is yours. The direction is handled.

Senior year. A new chapter. The person you love. Your family as they are right now. Or simply wanting photos that feel like you.
