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 🌧️

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!
