Hi! I’m Madeline!

Photography has been my creative outlet ever since I received my little red Kodak camera at the age of eleven. I still remember sitting in the darkness of my bathroom, tangled in Christmas lights, determined to capture the perfect bokeh shot. That spark never faded. Throughout my formative years, I continued to nurture my craft, with several of my photographs eventually finding their way into galleries across the Chicagoland area.

I studied Public Relations and Advertising at Loyola University Chicago, then sharpened my creative and strategic skills at Portfolio School, graduating from book180. It allowed me to expand my creative thinking and explore my artistic passions more deeply.

I began my career as a publicist, honing my writing skills and crafting narratives for national and local hospitality, entertainment, and lifestyle brands, ensuring every story landed just right.

I call Chicago home, and this city fuels my inspiration daily. (Go Cubs!)

My dog, Leo, is my son. I birthed him. :)
