A lot is happening over here, and I couldn’t be more excited✨

What started as a “side hustle” has grown into a buisness I’m incredibly proud of.

Beginning July 1st, I’ll be welcoming a new Medical Director to the team and expanding my service menu with exciting new treatment options. I can’t wait to share more details with you soon.

For the next few months, I’ll continue seeing clients in Lake in the Hills before transitioning into my new home space in Hampshire, Illinois this fall.

To every client who has trusted me, referred a friend, shared my posts, or cheered me on from the sidelines—thank you. New booking system coming soon- message/text me privately to book ❤️ by @madelinecoxx

Sub zero temperatures won’t stop us!
This was the best way to spend a chilly January morning. Photographing B+C’s Chicago City Hall elopement was nonstop gorgeous views of downtown Chicago.
Then we popped over to warm up at @rpmseafood to see more iconic skyline views, hang out at their picturesque bar, and toast with @veuveclicquot.

When love becomes part of the gallery ✨ It was so fun to be able to capture this engagement session among timeless masterpieces. E+M’a shared soft giggles and tender moments at the @artinstitutechi on this sleepy morning.
I am so grateful I got to capture these photos!

What started as a personal branding shoot also became something much more personal — a way to reclaim my confidence postpartum.

Postpartum has been hard. I’ve constantly compared myself to what my body used to look like and who I used to be. No one really prepares you for the grief that can come with not recognizing yourself after becoming a mom.

This shoot wasn’t about suddenly feeling confident. It was about letting go of that comparison and working toward loving who I am today.

Confidence postpartum is slow and quiet, but this feels like a step toward releasing the past version of myself and meeting who I am now.

Thank you so much @madelinecoxx for capturing this and being such an important part of the day, and @yannbeautyy @essri_hair for making me feel my best🫶🫶 oh and my hype girls behind the scenes :))

One of my favorite engagement sessions to date. Early alarms are worth it when the sunrise glow off the lake looked this dreamy 💫
Sunrise sessions are perfect for the early bird couple. The city is still asleep so you get these stunning views all to yourself.
Thank you K&D for running around Lincoln Park with me on a crisp October morning!
You two were amazing 🫶✨

Quick shoutout to @robirkey
This was my first session trying out my new @robirkeypresets and I was absolutely blown away by them. Thx a million xoxox

I offer 35mm film as an optional addition because it brings something truly special to your wedding gallery—something digital simply can’t replicate.

Because film photography encourages intentionality, it captures candid moments in a beautifully honest way. You only have 36 frames per roll. So you have to slow down and really set up your shot. Every frame is thoughtfully composed, giving you a set of images that feel meaningful and artistic.

It’s nostalgic, timeless, and a little bit cinematic—an heirloom layer woven into your love story.
If you’re dreaming of wedding photos that feel warm, emotional, and utterly romantic, 35mm film is the perfect addition. 🎞💫 by @madelinecoxx

A rainy morning proposal is so romantic. The leaves were a refreshing green from the rain. Softness was casted over this morning like a cozy blanket. My dear friends, Jess & Pat had the most gorgeous engagement. I was so honored to be the one to capture this moment.
