Hello friends, my name is Alex Vaynman. I picked up my first SLR camera in 2008, and have been hooked ever since! My favorite subjects have always been people, and I initially did most of my shoots at many different night clubs in Chicago. Nightlife photography was certainly fun and challenging. A lot has changed since then! Today, I primarily work as a hospitalist/nocturnist for a third of the month. For the rest of the month, I'm a stay-at-home dad and photographer. When I'm not sticking to my day... err... I mean night job, I love to be behind the camera. I take great pride in all the work I do. I enjoy meeting new people and capturing priceless memories (because life is all about making new memories!).

I know that you have many photographers to choose from. If I'm given the opportunity to do a shoot with you, I will strive to give you the best quality results for the price without any BS or fine print.

I am primarly located in the greater Chicagoland area (Highland Park) and am flexible to travel throughout the area. I also do spend considerable time in St. Louis, Missouri and will occasionally be in South Florida (West Palm Beach to Miami). If you have any other questions, feel free to ask!
