Hi! I’m Sylvia.

I have always been the person who stops mid- conversation to capture candid laughter or the setting light filtering through the trees. As a Chicago wedding and engagement photographer  I find myself drawn  to profound love stories and the simple things that make them meaningful.

My husband first taught me how to use a camera and now visual storytelling is a love language between us that I can’t help but to share with my clients.

WHAT’S IT LIKE TO WORK WITH ME:

♡ A relaxed, encouraging experience

I’ll help you feel comfortable from the moment we meet.

☆ Direction when you want it, space when you don’t

I’ll guide you naturally, but never force awkward poses.

☼ Photos that feel colorful, joyful, and true to you

Images that remind you exactly how the day felt.

◴ Help with timelines and planning

From sunset timing to family portraits, I’ve got you covered.

A Few Things I Love…

  1. Wandering through new countries with my film camera

  2. Chasing golden hour light

  3. Fantasy novels with strong female leads

  4. Oil pastels, cyanotypes, and making art just for fun

  5. Fresh fruit pastries

  6. Forcing my husband to watch Pride and Prejudice

Think we would get along?

If you are looking for colorful, joyful photographs and someone who will make you feel comfortable from the very beginning, I’d love to hear your story.
