Real moments, artfully told.

Hello! My name is Brooke Montavon, and I’ve been photographing DeKalb, IL and the surrounding northern Illinois area for the last 15 years. I love photographing people and telling stories through photographs.

I love images that feel alive - whether it’s the energy of a play, the excitement of an event, or a candid smile during a portrait session. My background in theatre gives me a unique eye for storytelling, while my love for candid photography keeps things natural and real.
