Peak action
Worked from the ends of the pitch with fast glass, so the frame lands on the tackle, the strike, and the save — not a half-second after.
Chicago sports photographer · soccer specialist
A Chicago sports photographer who specializes in soccer.
Sports photography across Chicago and Chicagoland with soccer as the specialty — peak action, real emotion, and an editorial discipline that holds up in print and on a club's feed. Work spans families, clubs, and commissioned assignment shoots.
Recent Chicagoland coverage
Frames from real matches, not stock.
Real emotion
The celebration, the huddle, the look on the bench. The moments around the ball are usually the ones a family or a club keeps.
Editorial discipline
Tight, intentional edits delivered to a publishable standard — exposure, color, and timing that hold up next to professional sports coverage.
Fast, usable delivery
Curated highlights inside 48 hours and the full gallery within 72, so images go out while the result still matters.
Specialist, not generalist
Soccer is the deep specialty — and that focus shows in the frame.
Reading the game means anticipating the moment instead of chasing it: where the cross is going, when the keeper commits, the second the bench erupts. That instinct is what separates a real sports photographer from someone with a fast camera.

FAQ
What sports do you photograph?
Soccer is the deep specialty — most weekends across the season are spent on the touchline. The same approach to action, light, and emotion carries to other field and court sports, so reach out about your sport and the assignment can be scoped honestly.
Where in the Chicago area do you cover?
Based in Brookfield and working across Chicago and the surrounding suburbs — the city, the western and northern suburbs, and the wider Chicagoland circuit. Travel beyond the metro for tournaments, showcases, and editorial assignments is welcome; just include the location.
How do I book, and what does it cost?
Day, half-day, and recurring club rates are published on the hire page, so you can budget before you reach out. Send the date, sport, venue, and how the images will be used through the inquiry form and you get fit, scope, and a fixed quote back.
How fast will I get the photos?
Curated highlights land within 48 hours and the full edited gallery within 72 — fast enough for a club to post while the match is still fresh and for families to find their player the same week.
