About Me
I’m a daughter, sister, wife, aunt, mother (of twins who died at birth), friend, and upcoming natural light photographer on Chicago’s North Shore. After loving photography for years, I’ve decided to share it with the world. I love capturing moments and the feelings that are expressed through each one. This blog was my first step toward a leap of faith. Thanks for coming along for the ride.
For a person who refers to themselves as an ‘amateur’ you are pretty darn good! Your photos are beautiful-I like how you capture the candid ‘moments’ of those you photograph, especially the young family portrait and the couple celebrating their 5 yr. anniversary. I look forward to seeing future photography work from you and I wish you nothing but success as you continue your journey.
This is a leap of faith well worth taking. So glad to happen upon you in these first steps. Continue to believe in yourself, be passionate about capturing something special for your clients, and love what you do, and that success is guaranteed.
I’m just getting more into my love of photography too and your photos are beautiful!
Petina, you are an exceptionally talented portraitist. All good things to you.
Thank you very much– what a kind compliment!
