I started Flicks from Natalie in Normal, Illinois while I was a sophomore in college, but my journey with photography began long before that in high school. I first discovered my love for the camera through landscape photography, and when I won a Scholastic Silver Award for my work, I knew this was something I wanted to pursue seriously. That moment sparked a deeper passion for capturing emotion, personality, and connection through every photo.

Now, based in the Chicago suburbs, I specialize in creative shoots, lifestyle sessions, grad portraits, and brand photography. For me, photography is about more than just taking pictures. It is about creating an experience that feels comfortable and authentic, capturing real moments that tell your story, and turning them into memories you will treasure for a lifetime. Every session is a chance to celebrate who you are and the moments that matter most.
