From the west coast to the western Chicagoland, here's a collection of some of my images that make my heart soar. If you notice lots of sunshine, joy, and emotion - it's intentional. :')

Grads, it's your time to SHINE! I love capturing the essence of the celebration of such a milestone. We take a collective SIGH "I made it," and get all the album-worthy, joy-filled photos parents dream of.

My approach to family photos means making sure I get all the poses my client has envisioned, while leaving space for the candid moments in between. It's where my creativity shines and we get some of the sweetest happy accidents.

I always want my couples sessions to tell the story of their love the way it feels for them specifically. Whether that's deep belly laughs and tickle fights, or intimate snuggles, or pizza dates on the rooftop. I let you be you, with gentle prompts, and the photos tell the story.

JULIA
From the very beginning she had so many great ideas and worked with me so well to figure out the looks that I was going for my senior photos. She was able to create the image that I wanted and was so fun to work and shoot with!
"all of MY worries disappeared after working with Charity."
Davin
She was extremely intuitive with her process, user friendly site, and creates an intentional connection with her clients. The consistency in both of my shoots with Charity was exceptional, and she makes sure not to miss a step.
"Picking Charity for engagement photos was the best decision I could’ve ever made!"
MACAYLA
She offers style guides, works to find the perfect location, does a photo reveal, and offers quality products for your prints that are hard to find elsewhere. On top of that, she’s such a joy to work with and is so much fun!
"Her whole process from start to finish is unlike other photographers we’ve worked with - in the best way!"
clarissa
I felt extremely comfortable with her and loved that she suggested different poses for me. Loved my experience and the photos I received were insanely good!
It was def an 11/10 experience.
"Charity is literally THE BEST! She brought my vision to life, but better!"
KATIE
Charity provides such a custom experience from start to finish and did such a wonderful job. She met with us 1:1 to go through images and was able to produce beautiful prints that are now in our home. I highly recommend her!
"I was so excited to receive our stunning prints! They brought me to tears!"
