Welcome! Please see the following below before continuing: 📸 Thumbtack photographers are charged for leads, so serious inquiries only please. 📸 My sessions start at $150 and up. If this is not within your budget, kindly seek another photographer. My name is Monika, and photography has been my passion for many years now. As the designated photographer friend, I’ve always had an eye for the best lighting and angles to capture amazing photos. It wasn’t until the Fall of 2024 that I decided to pursue photography professionally and start my own business. I love working with my clients to capture their true emotions and highlight their confidence. I would love to help capture your special moments!
