In order to get real estate shoots to pop, we add additional light as needed. Here is a behind the scenes look on how to create well lit images in environments that might need that extra pop of light. In this example, the cabinets were not well lit by the available light.
Virtual Tour of Meeting Space
Sometimes a video helps a space come alive! Here is an example of a virtual tour of a New York City meeting space for our Chicago based client Attune.

1 Minute Film - Orange Altitude
Creatives need personal projects to grow, challenge and inspire.
Owner and operator Geraldine, here! I’m so honored to be nominated by my Orangetheory Fitness studio @otfwoodridge for their #MoreLife Membership Appreciation spotlight. While part of being featured is capturing a “why I love OTF” video clip at the studio, I wanted to create my own. I hope this 1 minute touches you in some way, and shows why OTF holds a special place in my heart.
My heart is overflowing with gratitude when I think of these people, for without them, I know I would not have made it to the top!
❤️The entire team at @pristinetrails, especially my guides Kim, Passat, and Juma — the superstars that make getting to 5895 meters | 19,340 feet look easy
❤️My awesome OTF coaches who inspire me literally, everyday with their energy and passion, and challenge me to run/bike/row farther/faster and lift heavier: Coach Rudy @rudes713, Coach Marielle @m_emory14, Coach Lewis @the_freakin_rican, Coach Nick @nickcarroll93
❤️And last but not least, my cousin, tent roommate, and fellow mountain camera operator @micolim, for wanting to climb Kilimanjaro too. We did it! :) Thank you for being part of this journey of a lifetime.
With All My Splat Points,
G.

Northern Fork Promo Video
WARNING: YOU MIGHT JUST DROOL.
We came out on a beautiful Chicago night to shoot the Northern Fork team do their thing at this amazing rooftop! From delicious cocktails and pig roast, to a beautiful view of the skyline and picturesque sunset — there is nothing more you could ask for!
Northern Fork wanted showcase their delicious work using video so we shot a little bit of their prep, team and guests mingling. We are still dreaming of the pig roast and blueberry pie. Haha! Please invite us back Northern Fork!
Jade Restaurant Austin
We recently worked with Jade Restaurant located in Austin, Texas to create new marketing materials that included photography and videography.
The sole purpose of the video was to feature their private room. While photos can tell the story, video and add another dimension to help customers get a sense for a space.

Awesome Chicago Cover Band
If you are looking for a live band for your wedding or general event, definitely check out the cover band the Walk-Ins! Joe and team are so incredibly nice and great to work with. You won't be disappointed.
In one swift hour, we were able to film so much great footage and compress it down to really give an audience a taste of what they can expect. Now have a listen! They'll have you singing along for sure!
Every place has a story
This was our second time at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church in Chicago. The first, was for the big brother of soon-to-be baptized baby boy.
We arrived quite a bit early to make sure we did not get caught in "construction season" traffic. In doing so, we were able to chat with the happy grandmother patiently waiting for her family and close friends to arrive.
She said, "I was married here. My two kids were baptized here. And now my two grandkids."
We had no idea.
It is little things like this that bring life and meaning to what we do. We think we are photographing a baptism. But really, we are photographing the journey of a family. A story of a family that immigrated here, established its roots and with every step along the way, is crafting their history ever so slightly.
It was a beautiful day.
My UIC Connection
We collaborated with the University of Illinois at Chicago on creating a piece that would help incoming freshman and transfer students adjust to being at college. We called "My UIC Connection" and this became the theme for the video. It went on to win an award! First Place to be exact! Thanks to the Association of College Unions International (ACUI) Region V for recognizing our work, and the testimonies of these young adults!
