I'm Steph - a family, newborn, and maternity photographer serving the city of Chicago and the Northshore. While not originally from the Midwest, I've called Chicago home for most of my adult life. In fact, I've been photographing families, children, and babies here for the last eleven years!

As a mom of three young ones, I know how important this is to you and that you want it to go well. Please know that you are safe enough to look and feel frustrated when your kids aren't cooperating...or when your husband would rather be anywhere else than taking family photos. I can promise you a judgment free zone and the utmost patience. I am also going to prepare you for what to expect, so you can show up and leave the rest to me.

With your family's legacy in mind, I will lean into the beautiful chaos that is your life right now. Your images will be vibrant and full of candid joy, but I will also prioritize those timeless, traditional photos to hang on your wall (and gift your MIL).

I can't wait to meet you and your precious family!
