How can we help?
Most sessions are outdoor. I serve all of Chicago and the suburbs. In your booking email, you receive a list of all my favorite locations that you can choose from. We will work together to pick a location that will make your photos into portraits.
Once you book a session, I will send you a styling guide that will take all the stress off your plate. I am also available to help you coordinate outfits for the entire family.
Yes, I offer payment plans to accommodate your budget. We can discuss a plan that suits your needs and ensures capturing beautiful family moments without financial strain.
Yes, I do offer mini sessions. They are a shorter option, perfect for capturing quick, memorable moments with your family. They are seasonal and usually occur during holidays. Let me know if you'd like details or to schedule one.

She is incredibly patient, focused and accommodating. Not to mention she is amazingly talented! We had family photos taken by Meli last year and this year too, I LOVE all of our photos. We will continue having her take our family photos every year! She is the best!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Meli for a family photoshoot and the experience exceeded all expectations! Not only is Meli a true professional, delivering exceptional quality photographs that truly captured the essence of our family, but her efficient turnaround time was impressive. The genuine kindness and ease she brought to the shoot made the entire process enjoyable and stress-free.

We had the pleasure of getting our family photos with Meli and she was AMAZING! She captured natural photos of us laughing and just being us, which I absolutely loved! She made it easy and let us be us and I appreciated that! Highly recommend her for your next family photos!

Meli was very professional and a pleasure to work with. So friendly and made my girls feel so comfortable during the photo shoot. The photos were all absolutely gorgeous! I’m scheduling our next photo shoot for the Holidays for our family, I wouldn’t go anywhere other than Meli! Highly recommend booking her for your next season of life, you won’t be disappointed.
