Hello! I'm Cecilia:

Photographer. Wife. Mom. Editor. Craft beer enthusiast. Traveler.

Welcome to my little corner of the world! I’m a natural-light photographer based in Waukesha, Wisconsin (but I would love to travel to wherever you need me!), and passionate about telling your story through timeless images.

I’m a sucker for craft beer, streaming shows and documentaries, video-gaming, traveling, tattoos, gardening, and comfy food.

I’m a family girl. My parents and siblings showed me what being part of a family means. I loved growing up in a small Chicago suburb with a mom that was a familiar face at my school and siblings I was proud to point out to friends while walking the halls. But it was my late husband that showed me unconditional love outside of family. He inspired me to follow my dream of being a photographer. He passed away in early 2016, only 5 months into our marriage. Digging further into my business after his passing was the perfect way to honor his memory.

I found an amazing man that supports, loves, and even photographs with me! He pushes me every day to follow my dreams and I am so grateful for him. We got married on Leap Day 2020 and packed up and moved from Illinois to the suburbs of Milwaukee that summer! I gave birth to our son in the spring of 2023 and am absolutely loving this new adventure of being a mom.

If you need me, I’ll just be over here, cozied up on the couch, snuggling my son and animals, Lumineers playing in the background, and waiting for you to shoot me a message so I can meet you and tell your story in images.


I seek to preserve the beautiful, the intimate, the joyful, the candid, the unforgettable. Going through what I have in my short amount of time has taught me to cherish every moment, every smile, every hug, every kiss, every little thing. I photograph with an eye for detail and capture moments that you will forever have.
