dreamy, documentary-style photos for soulful humans

serving champaign-urbana, central il, anywhere love takes us

my approach is intuitive and heart-led, blending documentary storytelling with a dreamy, timeless warmth. think less posing, more feeling. i’m here to hold space for you to be seen, just as you are. to capture the joy, the love, the magic of just being you. more than just photos, our time together is an experience that invites you to deepen into connection, to play, and to be fully present.

hi, i’m tay!

an intuitive photographer, trauma-informed yoga teacher, and soon-to-be therapist. photography has always been a part of me. growing up, my parents ran a photography business, and by the time i was 15, i was second-shooting weddings and editing in photoshop. after years of capturing life through the lens, i finally decided to take the leap and launch my own business — blending my love for storytelling, connection, and honest, emotion-filled moments.

when i’m not behind the lens, you’ll find me soaking up sunshine, sipping iced oat milk honey lavender lattes, tending to my garden, wandering the farmers market, or dreaming up our next home project with my man.
