If you’re searching for a Chicago couples photographer to document your love story authentically and artfully, look no further! I’m Eden Strader, a seasoned photographer with a deep passion for capturing love in its truest form. Recently, I had the privilege of photographing Shelby and Arjun in the most intimate setting: their home. This in-apartment couples shoot perfectly showcased their connection, joy, and everyday magic.
Shelby and Arjun’s session was all about celebrating who they are as a couple. From snuggling on the couch to playfully jumping on their bed, every moment reflected their vibrant bond. It was the perfect example of why I adore in-home couples sessions — there’s something so raw and beautiful about documenting love in the spaces where it naturally thrives.
As a Chicago couples photographer, my goal is to provide an experience that feels effortless, natural, and deeply personal. Whether it’s the way Shelby laughs when Arjun whispers in her ear or how they both light up when sharing a quiet moment, I aim to capture the essence of what makes your relationship unique. It’s not about posed perfection but about the authentic love you share in the places you hold dear.
At Eden Strader + Co., we believe love should be documented as it is — no frills, no forced moments, just pure connection. With nearly a decade of experience capturing couples in Chicago, New York, and destinations worldwide, my team and I specialize in blending documentary-style photography with an editorial edge. The result? Timeless, emotional imagery that feels just as powerful in 50 years as it does today.
Whether you’re celebrating a milestone or just want to memorialize the everyday magic of your relationship, let’s create something unforgettable together. Shelby and Arjun’s session reminded me why I love what I do: creating a visual story of love that will last a lifetime.
