I’m Sandy, I help city couples to plan and design their dream wedding. I consider myself a down-to-earth professional. Planning weddings is a career where my love for helping people, organization, and creativity are perfectly married.

I come from an artistic background that has followed me pretty much my whole life.

I am a photographer based out of the downtown Chicago area! I am confident in my creative skills but also the technical skills required to shoot and edit stunning photos. Since starting photography 8 years ago, I have traveled to over 12 different cities with clients residing in Chicago, Indianapolis, and New York City. I specialize in weddings, elopements, and portrait photography.

I'm a storyteller, creator, and adventurer. I've traveled the world and don't plan on stopping now. Humans, vintage black t-shirts, walking instead of driving, dancing in parking lots, the feeling of arriving, and words are some of my favourite things. Speaking of words... Why "estorie" (est'-or-ee)? I strive to live and to tell honest stories, ones of struggle and hope and joy. "Story" comes from the Anglo-French word "estorie." The world itself has a story and I like that.
