hi! i'm aileen.

pronounced "i-lean"


Photography is both my passion and my purpose. There is nothing better than watching someone light up after seeing themselves in a picture I've taken of them.


I'm so proud to have been voted Cleveland Magazine's Best Photographer for 2024 + 2025. A recognition like this from my community means so much, and just proves I'm right where I'm supposed to be; living a life of constant creation.

When i'm not creating..

I'm an Aries, homebody, auntie to 8 and professional connoisseur of lil treats.


I love spending time with my family + friends, traveling, game nights, comedy shows with my boyfriend, getting swole at Planet Fitness and binging something good on TV.


I think I'd make a great third wheel to your date nights.

i love travel photography.

I love taking portraits of people, but I also really love nature photography when traveling. Check out some snaps from some of my trips! They're nothing extraordinary, but they are trips that meant a lot to me.

Places include: Ohio, California, Oregon, Cape Cod, Colorado, North Carolina, Utah, Hawaii and New Mexico.

Aileen is an amazing photographer! I was obsessed with our engagement photos and now I’m even more obsessed with my wedding photos. I cannot tell you how many compliments I have gotten on my them. Aileen made us feel very comfortable, and only is Aileen great at what she does, she’s also very kind and caring. She’s very organized and meets with you multiple times to make sure she captures everything you want. She’s amazing and it’s no surprise she’s been voted number one photographer in Cleveland!

I was immediately drawn by her ability to capture intimate and sweet moments looking through her website. I knew I had to book her to capture our first family photos! She was such a sweet and kind person that it felt like meeting up with a friend to take these photos. We felt just natural playing with our little one in front of the camera and had such a great time! The photos came out beautifully and cannot thank her enough capturing the sweet moments of our new family! Highly recommend and will be using her in the future!

Aileen was wonderful. We couldn't be happier with the photos. Our event was more casual and less traditional but Aileen made sure to capture every special moment with our family and friends. Aileen was thoughtful, fun, engaging with our guests, and took incredible images we are so excited and grateful for. Couldn't have wanted anything more, and would highly recommend her to ANYONE! <3

I am so glad we chose Aileen as our wedding photographer! Aside from being a talented artist, Aileen is a wonderful person and so easy to work with. She is the perfect balance of organized and attentive to detail, but still flexible and fun to be around! She had excellent communication skills leading up to our wedding day and it felt like she understood exactly what we wanted. Day of, Aileen kept a calm demeanor and guided our larger bridal party and families through photos in a timely, efficient manner, allowing us to then enjoy time together. Someone asked me at the end of the night if we were friends with our photographer and I said, “Not really, but I want to be!” Thank you Aileen for helping make our day special
