For those who value intention over performance

An experience designed to feel effortless,

personal, and quietly confident

I approach every wedding as a creative collaboration.

Every celebration has its own rhythm, atmosphere, and identity.

My role is to shape that vision into imagery that feels effortless, editorial, and deeply personal —

photographs that don't just document the day, but define how it's remembered.

Because true luxury isn't captured. It's curated.

THE COLLECTIONS

Two collections. One philosophy: your day, fully present, beautifully held.

Collection I — The Essential / 8 hours

Questions, answered

How do we reserve our date?

A consultation first — then a signed agreement and retainer secures your date. I take a limited number of weddings each season.

Do you travel?

Yes — based in Chicago and Lake Como, photographing weddings worldwide. Travel is quoted simply, with no hidden fees.

How many images will we receive?

A curated gallery — every image hand-edited. Quality over quantity, always.

Can we add film photography or an album?

Yes — film coverage and fine-art albums are available as additions to any collection.

... Our photos are incredible, everyone comments on how exceptional they are.

They truly capture the joy of the day and actually look like us. Our gallery is so thorough, there is nothing else I could have wanted. Mariya came early and ended up staying later than we had planned. She helped us feel comfortable in front of the camera and our photos look so natural and elegant.

She is the best of the best!
