Pamela is also adventurous and is known for getting up at 4:30 am, in 9 degree weather, to meet fellow photographers at the Chicago’s frozen lakefront to capture the steam rising off the lake at sunrise. Being around other photographers, experimenting and learning new things is what energizes her. Collaborating with other photographers, models and other artists is always welcome retreat. She also loves partnering with other businesses and creating unique sets for events that clients benefit from.
