making ordinary moments extraordinary.




I’m Karen—a creative, designer, and photographer based between Milwaukee and Chicago. I’ve been doing this for 11 years, mostly by figuring it out as I go. No fancy degree, just a lot of hands-on experience, intuition, and hustle.
I care about making things that feel real. Whether it’s capturing a wedding, designing a brand post, or photographing someone in their element, my goal is simple: show up, pay attention, and make something that reflects who you are—not just what looks good online.
I split my time between working full-time in marketing at a private school and running my photography business on the side. I’m hoping to branch out more in Chicago and eventually travel for shoots across the U.S.
