Photography is more than a job or a passion, it is a mission to capture the present in forever and I am truly grateful I've been gifted with such skills and vision. With more than 7 years of experience, my focus is quality and unicity. That gave me the opportunity of working with many bloggers, artist and celebrities as the personal photographer of Michael Jackson: Sam Emerson or the journalist of the New York Times: Nick Madigan, the model and public person/ influencer with over 4m followers: Haley Kalil, etc. I worked with many designers; attended several fashion shows in Chicago and NY Fashion Week. In 2023 I have opened the most unique photo studio in Chicago named "Art on You Studio". With high education in Sciences of Communication, I can say that photography is a therapy meant to help you a lot to build confidence and start loving who you are. Some of my competitors might be cheaper, but what I am offering is not just a service, it is an experience you will never forget.
