From a young age, Elise was inspired by her family’s creative roots, with her opa’s 1970s camera store, South Park Camera in Park Ridge, playing a key role in shaping her love for photography.

Recognizing the rising demand for her side projects, Elise decided to fully pursue her passion for videography and launched Twofold Media in 2022. Specializing in storytelling and short-form content creation, Elise works with fashion, lifestyle, and corporate clientele. With a presence in both Chicago and Naples, she expertly navigates the complexities of photo and video production, ensuring your brand’s story is told clearly and consistently across all platforms.

If you’re drawn to the energy of motion blur, the drama of high-flash photography, the charm of vintage grain and soft tones, Elise is the creative partner you’ve been looking for. Her goal is to craft imagery that feels like art, something you'd want to hang on your wall and admire.
Beyond her work, Elise is a multifaceted creative. She enjoys filming concerts, traveling, scuba diving as a certified NAUI Divemaster, and practicing ceramics—a craft she has honed for over a decade. One of her favorite personal photography projects has been capturing aerial shots of Southwest Florida from her dad’s WWII-era bi-wing Stearman airplane.

Elise is proud to partner with The Studio Chicago team and has collaborated with notable clients such as Sony, Marissa Collections, Fore-Te Club Attire, OnlyFans Merch Store, Studio Three, LifeFitness, Naples Winter Wine Festival, West Point Financial, and Counter Health.
