Antonia Steinmiller - Owner

My mom and I on Thanksgiving 2023.

Hi! I’m Antonia. I service pretty much every where in the suburbs of Chicago and Northwest Indiana. I’m unapologetically myself in all ways, shapes, and forms. Working together will be a lot of laughs and I hope the experience keeps you around so I can watch your little ones grow up before my lens.

My ultimate goal as your photographer is to create and deliver the highest quality images + capture the best moments of your life! If you’re like me, you consider a moment in time a treasure. I love to look back at photos and transport back into that moment in time. Just for one second! Like music, And smells. photos can trigger the best memories. So why not have a million memories to choose from? The photos I create for you will leave you with lasting memories. Don’t let time pass you by.

What you can expect working with me:

We will talk through detailed session ideas about your location, your outfit(s) and your date/back-up date. All photos will be individually enhanced and delivered to you in a timely manner. You will receive a customized photo gallery with a print release. You can expect a friend for life and a few sneak peek pictures sent to you while I’m editing. Most importantly, you’ll leave with a fulfilling experience and a lifelong friend. I’m always cheering you on through your life + your big milestones!

FYI |

I’ve been obsessed with taking photos for as long as I could remember. Before selfies were a thing, I was taking selfies. I was the friend who ALWAYS had her camera. The friend who always posed people and grabbed the BEST angles. You know what I’m talking about. I’ve had that photographic eye for as long as I can remember. It’s all about details and I love incorporating different stylistic elements into every photo. For me, taking portraits is about emotions. Telling your story. Capturing moments in time and freezing those moments you can always look back at with wonder and awe. Isn’t that the best part about portraits anyways?

A few of my favorites |

My family, friends, cheerleading, coaching, traveling to new places + experiencing different cultures, fitness + self care, Coke Zero, Taco Tuesday + and some really great authentic Cuban food! OH! I love a really good bakery donut, too. I love my dogs King (pitbull) and Hera (german shepherd)! And i miss my dogs no longer with me: Charles (pitbull), Coco (pitbull), Bella (shih tzu), Ginger (maltese), and Fritz (shih tzu). I love a good sprinkle of botox, and all things 90s! I’m a millennial and enjoy reminiscing of our millennial era!

Let’s hang out + let me create some magical memories for you and your loved ones!
