Your Chicago Wedding photographer

Hi, I’m Antwonette!

I’m a full-time wedding, portrait, and event photographer based in Chicago, specializing in capturing love stories with a sultry, timeless, and artfully luxurious touch. My work is for couples who want more than just photographs — they want an experience, images that feel effortlessly elegant, deeply personal, and unapologetically full of life.

I hype up my couples, celebrate authentic moments, and craft each image with intention, ensuring that every laugh, glance, and whisper of a moment is immortalized. I understand both the fun, spirited side of photography and the refined, high-end details that make your gallery feel like art you’ll treasure forever.

Outside of photography, life is just as vibrant. I share it with my husband of 17 years and our 7-year-old daughter, and I’m fueled by disco, ’90s love songs, art, and adventures that keep me inspired. That energy and passion flow into every session, making your experience not only unforgettable but also utterly joyful.

If you’re looking for a photographer who blends sultry elegance, playful energy, and a true understanding of luxury photography, let’s create your story together — images that will be as timeless as your love
