Trouble adding Images into a Gui using tkinter - python-3.x

Question

OK so i am trying to make a program that displays an image when pressing a button, and i am having trouble getting the images into the program
this is my full code:
# Nicolas Bart
import tkinter as tk
from PIL import Image, ImageTk
from tkinter import *
window = tk.Tk()
window.title('Bad Meme Generator')
window.geometry('500x500')
window.configure(bg='saddle brown')
meme_label = tk.Label(window, text='PRESS BUTTON FOR BAD MEMES:',
fg='blue4', bg='brown4', font=('comicsans', '20'))
meme_label.grid(pady=25, padx=25, column=0, row=0)
def button_command():
meme_window = tk.Tk()
meme_window.title('I Warned You')
meme_window.grid()
image = Image.open('pexels-photo-247932.jpg')
photo = ImageTk.PhotoImage(image)
label = tk.Label(meme_window, image=photo)
label.image = photo
label.place(x = 0, y = 0)
button = tk.Button(window, text='Dont Do It!', command=button_command,
padx=100, pady=75, font=('comicsans', '20'),
bg='brown4', fg='blue4')
button.grid(column=0, row=1)
warning_label = tk.Label(window, text="Really shit tier memes incoming:",
bg='brown4', fg='blue4',
font=('comicsans', '20'))
warning_label.grid(pady=75)
window.mainloop()
every time i run this program, when i press the button to open the image, it gives the error "AttributeError: type object 'Image' has no attribute 'open'"
the specific part of the program that is giving the error is:
def button_command():
meme_window = tk.Tk()
meme_window.title('I Warned You')
meme_window.grid()
image = Image.open('pexels-photo-247932.jpg')
photo = ImageTk.PhotoImage(image)
label = tk.Label(meme_window, image=photo)
label.image = photo
label.place(x = 0, y = 0)
any help would be appreciated. Thank you :)

This is a good example of why you shouldn't do from tkinter import *. Tkinter has an Image class, so by doing this import after importing Image from PIL you overwrite the PIL class with the tkinter class.
Since you're already importing tkinter the preferred way (import tkinter as tk), you don't need to import tkinter a second time. You need to remove the statement from tkinter import *.
You also make the mistake of creating more than one instance of Tk. I don't know if it contributes to the problem or not, but it's not something you should be doing. If you need additional windows then you should create instances of Toplevel.
