Magic Love. Magic City. Magic Life.


The beginning of July was a busy month for these two! Meet Caira + Alex. This badass couple has dove headfirst into the world of YouTube and real estate! Caira has a YouTube channel about all things Chicago and Trader Joe's while working as a leasing agent. Alex, her boyfriend, has come alongside to assist in her endeavors this year. This adorable couple resided in the bustling neighborhood of River North until the beginning of this month which is why I was asked to come document an in-home session during their last few days in this apartment! I've been an avid watcher of Caira's on YouTube for about a year now. My obsession with Chicago and the excitement of living in the city is what led me to her channel. Her fun personality kept me around! I'm not lying when I say this photoshoot was a pinch me moment. A year ago, if you would've told me I'd be working with them I probably wouldn't have believed you. It's cool moments like these that make me go "wait, what? You're telling me this is my job??" All that to say: this photoshoot is a memory of mine I'll keep tucked away in a special place forever. I'm so happy I was able to capture such a special apartment and season of their life. Thank you guys for choosing me to do that and for giving me a reason to escape to the city!
