Our Story

We are sisters who believe family is everything. We decided to establish this business to share our passion for photography and capturing memories. We offer unique and customized portrait photography. Let us capture the moments that captivate your heart.

Why Choose Us?

We realize there are many photographers out there and it is a competitive business. What do you get with us that makes us unique?

We are a team! We are sisters! We treat you like family!

We truly love what we do and feel so blessed when people choose us to capture their special moments. One of us does the photography and editing (with a lot of experience behind her) while the other works as an assistant and is there to make your kiddos as comfortable as possible, so we can capture those smiles and happy moments. We also like to work with you in creating a theme or getting props.

No Sneak Peeks

We do not post sneak peeks, until after you receive your gallery. We believe in allowing you to post when and how you want. We don’t want to steal your thunder.

Affordable

When we started, we also decided on a business plan that allows us to be as affordable as possible. As mommas we understand how important a budget can be.

This photography journey has been such a blessing in our lives. We thank you for choosing us and hope we can continue to deliver the best experience possible!

I have studied photography since 1992, and have passion for portrait and documentary photography and film. I attended Columbia College of Chicago to study film. I Worked for Wolf Camera as a manager, printer and camera expert from 1997-2003. One of my greatest achievements was a music documentary film that played in festivals such as Chicago Underground Festival and Leeds International Festival in 2009. I have independently produced, shot, edited and mastered live DVDs and music videos for bands as well as photographing them over a 15 year span. I also worked for Garbo Productions from 2003 - 2010 as an assistant photographer, videographer, editor of both photos and video.  While working in the field with Garbo Productions, I was also a studio manager during the week and handled all the day to day work flow and clients. 

I left the studio to become a stay at home mom. I was excited that I could now capture special memories of my own to cherish for years to come. There is nothing that I love more than shooting pictures and capturing memories of the people that I love in my life. I want to share my gift of capturing moments with others and feel that it is my life's purpose.  I am looking forward to shooting more pictures and connecting with family, friends and new clients on a spiritual level.

Thank you for thinking about us for your photography needs. First and foremost, I am a mom of two. I am currently a stay at home mom, but previously taught English as a second language, grades sixth through eighth. I have always had a passion for helping others, and I am at my best when I am creating. I literally take pictures of my kids every day because they are only going to be little for such a short time. I think pictures are one of the most important possessions we have in life. I want to remember every precious moment, and taking pictures is the only way for me personally to do so.

My sister is an extremely talented photographer and has such a kind soul. I have a lot of confidence in her ability and cannot wait for her to share her gift on this level. We have decided to go into business together because we make a great team and each bring unique strengths. I am acting as the business administrator and assistant to the photographer. I am extremely excited to start this venture, and it makes me overjoyed to know we are going to be helping so many capture life's greatest treasures. Contact us today.
