I am Nattaya, a passionate photographer specializing in weddings, events, and portraits. My ultimate joy comes from capturing the precious moments you experience when fully engaged in the present. Through my lens, I have the ability to immortalize these extraordinary moments, ensuring that they remain eternally cherished.

With a knack for photographing candid, authentic scenes, I possess the ability to encapsulate the genuine emotions and connections shared by individuals. Each photograph I produce is a testament to the love, joy, and happiness that permeate these remarkable occasions.

Moreover, my creativity knows no bounds, allowing me to infuse each image with a unique touch. Pairing this creativity with my keen eye for detail, I guarantee that the end result will be nothing short of stunning. The photographs I capture will not only showcase the beauty of the moment but also preserve it for a lifetime.

So why wait? Let me be the one to accompany you on your special day, capturing the memories as they unfold. Together, we will create a visual story that embraces the essence of your event, leaving you with treasured mementos that will forever remind you of the magic experienced.

I first got into photography wanting to share my unique perspective with my family and friends, and I soon found that art happens when there is a connection through the lens. I've been working as a professional photographer since 2012, and my work has been published in the internationally recognized Glamour Magazine. I enjoy continuing to expand my skills by studying the best photography from around the world. I especially love working with families and couples, helping tell their story through the lens and documenting moments in the life of people in love.

Along with weddings, I have experience in taking portraits of families, kids, newborns, and seniors. In my portfolio you'll also find business and cultural events, food photography, engagement photos, and captures of every day life. Every job is a new challenge to come away with lively images that embody the spirit of the moment and all the people involved. I have worked with a wide range of different subjects, and I pride myself in taking time with everyone to make sure they feel comfortable.

I was born in Nakhonsawan province, Thailand, in a small city that has the very best Chinese food. I moved to Chicago 14 years ago, and I love the food, diversity, and architecture of this city that's provided me so many good opportunities. When not taking photos, I enjoy cooking, running a food blog with original recipes, and spending every possible moment with my amazing 15-month-old son. You can see a lot of my travel and food pictures on my instagram @nattyspantry.

Thank you for checking out my site! Every moment is unique, and I'd love to help tell the story of your special day through my lens.
