A WORD FROM THe OWNER
Bonjour!
I'm Eléonore, a French film photographer based in Chicago,
passionate about helping individuals, couples and families
preserve their milestones.
I'm obsessed with creating compelling, clean and modern images that will never go out of style.
My wish is to inspire you to have photos of yourself and your loved ones. I offer a simple yet elegant aesthetic—a French twist, with bespoke services and kind guidance to create a memorable souvenir.
I can't wait to work with you!
1. Couples
Engagement Session
This bespoke session is a must-have for any soon-to-be married couple. We will discuss your preferred locations to deliver stunning, romantic images that feel true to you.
Proposal Surprise
We capture all the precious moments that feel authentic, beautiful and natural. We ensure that this surprise for your other half looks how it truly felt!
Celebratory Session
This session is a meaningful way to create memories of your beautiful relationship; perfect for couples celebrating their anniversary, or just because.
2. Baby and Family
Maternity Session
Your pregnancy is a transformative journey that deserves to be documented. Being able to look back at your photos will bring you straight to all the emotions and moments that made this time so special and unforgettable. Preserve those memories for yourself and your loved ones.
Baby Session
At Ameline Studio, our approach is centered on a safe, natural, and respectful posing that aligns with the comfort and rhythm of your baby. Because they're only little once, it's the right time to document this precious stage of their life and create memories that will become invaluable as they change and grow older.
Family Session
This is the perfect opportunity to get a handful of new pictures of your family, celebrate a special milestone, and capture these bonds and memories for years to come. With a focus on creating natural, vibrant, and authentic images, Ameline Studio will ensure you are spending a great time together.
3. Portrait
Bridal Portrait
For the future bride who desires to get comfortable in front of the camera in her dress, with her hair and make-up wedding looks. This is a favorite to create stunning, timeless, and elegant portraits, as you do not have to feel rushed and think about timelines or guests.
Contemporary Portrait
Unlike traditional portraits, this artistic approach aims at creating complex, meaningful images for any moment of your life. Ameline Studio is rooted in film photography, and takes pride in producing both visually pleasing and emotionally evocative images.
Professional Portrait
Business portraits are not just a pretty picture of yourself. Being convincing and letting your distinct personality shine through is essential. Let us guide you through an efficient business headshot session, where you will overcome the natural 'I don't feel photogenic' feeling thanks to our directing experience and posing tips.
