Introduction
Hi! I'm Eliana, and I'm a visual storyteller. I've been doing photography professionally for more than six years – first as an event photographer for the Univeristy of Chicago, and then as a family, couples, and wedding photographer! ***Pros Pay PER LEAD on TT, so please find me online elsewhere if you’re just curious but not serious! I really appreciate it!*** Thank you for being here! I believe that photography should be FUN, and that’s why every session is filled with little prompts and games to help you have a blast. You don’t need to worry about practicing your smile because I’m here to help your real one shine during our session. I’ve been doing photography for more than six years and have photographed all ages — from 0 to 105! No matter who you are or what stage of life you’re in, if you’re looking for a fun-filled session that will leave you giggling and giddy, you’re in the right place. I never alter or photoshop bodies because I’m here to help you capture your beautiful self! I love fostering connections with my clients. The best pictures come when you feel comfortable and confident in front of the lens, and I'm here to help you get there! Every session comes with a pre-shoot consultation where we'll get to know each other and you can tell me exactly what your vision is. Each shoot is customized to your needs, and it's important to me that if we choose to work together, you feel like I'm the right fit for you. I love using photography to turn moments into memories. Let me help you tell your story!

My fiancé and I absolutely LOVED working with Eliana! She helped us create a customized package to meet our needs, did a wonderful job of communicating with us prior to the day of the shoot, and during the photoshoot she was so fun to be around! We are also beyond obsessed with our pictures from the photoshoot! I highly recommend her for anyone else wanting to do a couples photoshoot!

Thank you so much, Biayna! I loved running around the city with you and Daron. You two made the early wakeup worth it, and I'm so glad you like the photos!

If you need photos just book her! She’s amazing. Made us feel comfortable the whole time so there were awkward moments where we didn’t know what to do. The photos turned out amazing!
