Jarede often has the amazing opportunity to visit places far from, and very unlike her home just outside of Chicago. A city girl at heart, she finds beauty and intricacy in many things most of us see as banal, and she loves to document them.

Whether surrounded by her herd of large dogs or her large herd of children you will often hear her say, “Just one minute, let me grab my camera,” which sends her children running away and prompts her dogs to pose.

So poke around. You’ll find something you like, I promise. On this site you will see what she sees, and more often than not, it will amaze you.
