Meet Barbara Eldoobazar

Hey there! I’m Barbara Eldoobazar, the eyes behind the lens capturing life as it really is — raw and human.

Since I was a kid, I’ve had this platonic love with photography. On my 13th birthday, my brother gave me a Kodak film camera (the coolest gift for an introvert kid, if you ask me).. an act that fueled my lifelong obsession with capturing moments, regardless of equipment.

I’m also a nurse. In the midst of medical charts and stethoscopes, photography has become my creative sanctuary, a place where I can express emotions, tell stories, and freeze moments in time.

Balancing the intensity of healthcare with the beauty of photography has taught me the art of finding harmony in diverse passions. Whether I’m administering care or composing the perfect shot, my goal remains the same: to make a positive impact on the lives I touch.

With AI touching every corner of our world, I choose to stay rooted in the art of real, human connection. These images aren’t simply pictures on a paper or a screen.. they are moments lived by real humans living life. And those moments deserve the warmth of a real person, someone whose heart beats to the rhythm of life, and who understands the humanity within them.

As I transition my photography business from Wisconsin to the Chicago region, I’m excited to bring my personal style of storytelling to add to the incredible team of artists in this community.

Thank you for joining me on this journey of storytelling. So, let’s grab a coffee (or your beverage of choice) and chat about how we can bring your story to memorable life shots. Can’t wait to meet you and start capturing those epic moments!
