Hi, I'm Sara. I am a super fun portrait, branding and event photographer in the Chicago suburbs. I believe photos should be gorgeous, but natural! I offer on-location photography in Palatine and the surrounding suburbs, but also love in-home sessions. Every photo session with me will be fun, memorable, and showcase you and your unique story.
I am currently booking outdoor and in-home family, senior, and personal branding sessions, as well as events and corporate shoots in Palatine and the surrounding Northwest Chicago suburbs. Find out more about me here.

Happy New Year! 🎉
Please enjoy our holiday card, a tribute to the band @theleisurecollective who created the soundtrack of my year. Hope your 2026 is as cool as their songs and this look. 👏
How cool was this!
My beautiful friend needed some new headshots, so she packed her harp into the car and we delighted passersby in downtown Palatine! I hope she loves them as much as I do.

Rainy fall session 🌧️
Sometimes mother nature has her own plans when we are all on our way to the shoot location, and we end up in active rain! Despite the weather, we ended up with some gorgeous end of fall images that I was so thrilled to deliver.

Love this family! ❤️
It has been such a blessing for one of my favorite families to move to Vernon Hills - so I can find all these fun new locations! We were so lucky to have the most gorgeous fall color, and I cannot wait to deliver their big beautiful gallery!

Colorful senior session!
The last time I photographed this client was five years ago, and it was so much fun to see her grown into the amazing senior she is today! I wish her the best year ❤️
