Family sessions, maternity and newborn, senior sessions, commercial and branding, engagements and weddings

The images themselves are bright and simple. No heavy filters, no trend that will date them in three years. Just good light and your actual faces.

Hi, I’m Tricia.

A woman with long dark hair, Tricia Yoshii a family and lifestyle photographer, smiling and holding a camera on a city sidewalk, located in Chicago, IL.

I’m Tricia, a Glenview mom of two.

For fifteen years I led creative teams, building brands and campaigns and deciding which image told the truth. Now I make those images myself.

Fifteen years of improving other people's work teaches you one thing above everything else. The good frame comes right after everyone stops posing. So I keep sessions unhurried, warm and easy, whether that's a family in a backyard, a couple at golden hour, or a wedding day that will not slow down for anyone.

Real light, mid-laugh, exactly as you are right now.

Let’s get social
