Each week, we feature one Instagram photographer who will get to feature their photos and videos on Choose Chicago's Instagram account all week long, part of our new #TakingOverChooseChicago series. This week, we chose Valerie Pirri. Enjoy!

I'm @valeriebriee and I'm #TakingOverChooseChicago! #Chicago has so many delicious restaurants to choose from. I was able to enjoy great food and great views of the city from the Metropolitan Club in the Sears Tower. I highly recommend their spiced Salmon. #mychicagopix #chicagofoodauthority

I'm @valeriebriee and I'm #TakingOverChooseChicago! I don't mind waking up early to catch the sunrise on the weekends. North Avenue beach has an incredible view and a great spot to watch the boats pass in the summer. #mychicagopix #Chicago

I'm @valeriebriee and I'm #TakingOverChooseChicago. Just discovered Wildberry Pancakes & Cafe and these amazing Tiramisu pancakes (I like everything Tiramisu flavored). The best part is it's located right by the Bean! #mychicagopix #Chicago

I'm @valeriebriee and I'm #TakingOverChooseChicago! The Rookery building in #Chicago has so much history and beautiful architecture inside and out. It is home to this beautiful spiral staircase. #mychicagopix

I'm @valeriebriee and I'm #TakingOverChooseChicago. There is so much stunning art at the Art Institute of #Chicago. I love staircases though, so this beautiful staircase had to be my first stop! #mychicagopix

I'm @valeriebriee and I'm #TakingOverChooseChicago! Another beautiful spot to watch the sun setting and relax. You get a clear view of the skyline from 31st Beach & Harbor, but you also get this sweet view. #mychicagopix #Chicago
