As summer is going to be soon a faded memory, I wanted to edit some of my favorite photos from our trip to the midwest before they get buried in the dark abyss of my hard drive. My twelve year old got to go fishing with grandpa to this beautiful lake close to where they […]
Here’s to an amazing summer and trying to squeeze in the very last of it before school, which for us is tomorrow. Mini Session, Anyone? Thought I would share some images of this lovely family that was referred to me by a dear client turned friend, whose family photos can be seen here. I loved […]
Kate and Matt found each other through a chance encounter at a bar. After a few years of back and forth, and Matt battling cancer and surviving it, they were able to move toward their happily ever after. When Kate contacted me for a couples session, I was intrigued as it was not a typical […]
Genuine smiles are the best!
Great session Alpana!
I am always so uplifted by hearing triumphant stories of couples who encountered hardship. Love and marriage is never a promise of perfection, in fact it is typically a guarantee there will be suffering but the beauty and truth that manifests within that suffering, amidst the pain, is what makes it all worth it. Gosh these words and these images shake me to my core. So beautifully done Alpha! Bravo
Sorry for the typo Alpana;)
Wow. Seriously, stunning!
Wow, these images are stunning!! What a gorgeous couple (and I’m obsessed with her freckles).

Contax // Portra // State Film Lab We are soon off for our summer holiday and am looking forward to being back in Chicago. One of my favorite cities to visit and the time is always too short. Thought I would share a couple of images from my session with Jamey earlier in the year. […]
A spring portrait on medium format of Jamey. Makes me wish I had photographed more than one roll of film. I love that film makes me slow down and make every frame count. I can’t wait to share the gallery of images soon. Celebrate spring with a film portrait session. To do so use the […]

Lately, I have been thinking of my homeland quite a bit. These are some of the film photographs that I have taken over the past years. I am not sure that I have share them together other than here and there through Facebook. My recent trip brought up some emotions following my mom’s passing and […]
