Mindy Garfinkle Photography
About Mindy
Let’s make memories together!
I’ve been a professional photographer since the days of film — and after all these years, I still love capturing people of all ages and all kinds of events.
My passion lies in photographing real emotions and genuine connections. In every portrait session, I blend posed and candid moments to create a wide, meaningful variety. You’ll never hear me say “smile” — I prefer to let the true personality, especially in kids, shine through naturally.
Whether it’s laughter, deep thought, or quiet curiosity — I love capturing all of life’s expressions.
As a mom of two grown boys (now 27 and 24), I’ve had plenty of practice photographing real life in motion!
I shoot everything from intimate weddings and bar/bat mitzvahs to corporate gatherings, birthdays, and anniversary celebrations — for all generations. Just ask!
I grew up in Highland Park and now live in Riverwoods with my sons.
Can’t wait to capture your story next.
