Julissa and Fernando were my first session of 2022 and did not disappoint. We avoided the cold, unpredictable Chicago weather by shooting indoors at Garfield Park Conservatory and while the humidity serves its own challenges for curly haired people like myself, this place never fails to be absolutely gorgeous.

Artist's statement
I am an empathic lover girl. Gift giving is my love language. I love deeply, and am unwaveringly passionate about caring for others. Years of experience combined with an empathetic heart have allowed me to anticipate moments that truly capture the essence of your wedding day. I strive to create photos that feel perfectly, yet effortlessly, you.
Your wedding photos should become apart of your legacy. They deserve to be family heirlooms. You should be able to look at them and remember exactly how you felt in those fleeting moments.
I specialize in blending documentary photo journalism with fine art, creative portraiture. I aim to capture every moment with intention and care - from event design and perfectly curated details to the unedited joy of you on the dance floor with your best friends. From intimate, single night events to multi-day destination productions, I strive to tell stories within your photo galleries that are a perfect reflection of you.
It is an honor to be the person behind the lens on your wedding day, and it is one that I will never take for granted.
xo,
Arielle
