Meet Audrey

A boutique portrait photographer with a commercial photography foundation.

For more than 20 years, I have created imagery for individuals, families, businesses, and brands. While my focus today is designing portrait experiences and artwork for your home, my commercial background has shaped the way I approach every session, with attention to detail, expert lighting, thoughtful composition, and a commitment to excellence.

Over the years, I have had the privilege of photographing assignments for a variety of well-known brands, organizations, and businesses, including:

  • Aldi
  • Alpha Baking Co.
  • Chase Bank
  • Crate & Barrel
  • Gusto
  • IL Lottery
  • Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants
  • Las Vegas Raiders
  • Mercedes-Benz
  • Morton's Steakhouse
  • Nautica
  • Rapt in Maille
  • ReformYou
  • Smith and Wollensky
  • National and regional advertising agencies
  • Hospitality, healthcare, and retail brands
  • Small businesses, entrepreneurs, and professionals across the country

Today, I bring that same level of expertise and personalized service to every portrait session, creating artwork that celebrates the people and moments that matter most.

Favorite Food

Sushi—a sublime fusion of flavors and textures, from the delicate sashimi to the artful maki rolls—never fails to captivate my taste buds. It's my ultimate culinary delight.

Favorite Destination

Take me to the ocean! I love the salty air, crashing waves, stunning sunsets, and the relaxed vibe. The beach is my favorite destination, any time, any day.

Favorite Activity

Yoga: When I'm not behind the camera, you'll find me on the yoga mat. My passion for yoga began in 1999 with a transformative Iyengar yoga class. After 13 years of practice and learning from many teachers along the way, in 2012, I became a certified instructor. For the past decade, I've taught yoga on and off, not only to deepen my own practice but also to inspire and guide others on their yoga journey. Yoga is my sanctuary, offering balance and inspiration that I bring into my photography.

Favorite Artist

Claude Monet: When I'm not capturing moments with my camera or practicing yoga, I'm often inspired by the works of Claude Monet. My favorite artist, Monet's ability to play with light and color profoundly influences my own creative process. I was captivated by his masterpieces during a visit to the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, an experience that deepened my appreciation for his art and continues to inspire my photography.

Favorite Sport

Hiking: When I'm not immersed in photography or practicing yoga, you'll often find me exploring the great outdoors. Hiking is my favorite sport, and it's a family affair—we love hitting the trails together. These adventures allow me to capture stunning landscape photos, which I contribute to stock photography agencies. Hiking not only keeps us active but also fuels my creative spirit, providing endless inspiration for my work behind the camera.
