Maeve
Hi, I’m Maeve Malenock:) I was born and raised in Edison Park, Chicago, Illinois. My love for capturing moments began 14 years ago on my flip video camera. As a 7 year old, I would interview anyone that would listen and film sneak attacks on my family members. In middle school, I continued to create content on a private beauty account until a boy in my grade found out. In high school, I dragged my big camera to parties and filmed countless youtube videos that never made it to the surface. Now in college, my film camera is more valuable to me than my ID.
Similar to my love for my family, friends, and city, some form of film has always been by my side. And of course nothing makes me happier than bringing all of these things together. I am so excited to share this with you. See you soon.
Xoxo,
Maeve <3

Hi everyone! I am Eleanor Vanecko. Or Ellie:) I was born and raised on the North Side of Chicago, Illinois. Film photography has taught me to slow down and truly appreciate the world around me. I’ve always had a deep passion for photography and capturing unique moments to hold on to. From the second I started taking content, I started to find beauty in almost everything I saw. I first got my hands on a film camera the summer going into my first year of college. Maeve and I took a trip to the Grand Beach golf course and had our first photoshoot. I still remember the excitement and joy of receiving this first roll. Over the past few years, I have watched film photography enhance my moments in the most magical way. And that is exactly what I want to do for you.
Today, I continue to explore and experiment with film photography, always seeking new ways to express my creativity and tell stories through my images. It’s a journey that brings me immense joy and fulfillment, and I’m excited to see where it takes us next. Thank you for joining me on this adventure, and I can’t wait to share so many special moments with you all:)
love,
eleanor <3
