Springfield, IL
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves South Holland, IL

Hi, I’m Teri! I’m a Chicago based Wedding Photographer. I approach my photography as an artistic craft. I strive to create images that are emotional and striking. My life’s work is photographing people’s most joyous moments—preserving feelings and details that may otherwise be lost. I am obsessed with creating playful compositions, capturing fleeting moments that make the most treasured memories come alive again. The couples I work with place immense trust in me and it is my honor to create art for them.

Teri was amazing, she got amazing posed and candid photos of our day and the turn around time for our pictures was very quick! She was as even able to work with the poor weather we had to get beautiful fog filled pictures and take advantage of the blue cast at sunset! Would highly recommend her to any and everyone!

Roman Lorek Photography

5.0

Oak Lawn, IL
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000

I am a bilingual (Polish, English) Chicago based wedding photographer who enjoys traveling and music. I like to take a documentary approach to photography. Keeping posing to a minimum and capturing natural moments of your big day. I am a perfect photographer for a couple that believes the natural moments mean more than posed photographs.

I had the privilege of working with Roman at a wedding a few years ago. I was hired as a DJ and he reached out to me prior to the event to introduce himself. I looked into his work and was astounded by his attention to detail. He really has a knack for capturing the moment in photo

Jana Blue Photography (Photo + Film)

5.0

Wheaton, IL
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves South Holland, IL

My name is Jana Blue and I've been photographing weddings for 10 years. I'm consistent not in a trend of photos or style, but emotions. Each wedding and couples are so unique and my work follows that. In my career I've photographed both big production weddings and also intimate DIY ones. I've photographed informal engagements and elopements/weddings in a desert in Chile, in the mountains of Zion, in a beach in Croatia, in an ancient church in Greece and in forests in Brazil. I work with all different budgets and needs from my brides. I'm a preferred vendor of Chicago First Lady Boat, so I do weddings on the boat during the summer.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jana shot our wedding back in April. These are, by far, the best pictures we've ever had. 200% satisfied with the results! Jana was very professional, arrived on time and made us feel very comfortable while shooting. The images speak for themselves! Amazing work. Really fast turnaround too! I would recommend Jana Blue over and over again! Thank you so much!

Kate Scott Photography

Chicago, IL
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000

My name is Kate Scott Daly, and I can't wait to meet you! I'm a Chicago native and have been a professional photographer for nearly a decade. I am obsessed with capturing the perfect moment that will make you gasp and say "Oh my god, this is amazing!" Being a queer woman, it is so important to me that you feel safe, loved, and beautiful every step of the way. If you're looking for someone you can relax with and just be yourself, you've found me! Let's face it: it can be awkward being in front of a camera. Even I feel nervous sometimes! I understand that anxiety and will do everything I can to make you feel fabulous!

I contacted Kate sometime in November to take photos of my proposal to my then-girlfriend, Morgan. Kate was super easy to work with from the start. She listened to my ideas and gave great input to help me nail down my plan. When the day came, she got the candid photos seamlessly and they turned out great. She was so enthusiastic and happy and it made the shoot a fun time. All of our friends and family love how the final album turned out. I would definitely keep Kate at the top of my list for any future photography needs.

Hi! I'm Emma, owner and lead photographer of Emma Mullins Photography. Our goal is simple: to capture your vibe, your people, and your love in a way that looks and feels true to life. We just wrapped our 9th Chicago wedding season, and it's been a whirlwind of all things real and fabulous!

We LOVED working with Emma and Jeremy for our wedding. Emma was incredibly thoughtful from the planning of our engagement shoot all the way through to our the wedding day. Our wedding had many moving pieces and a large family that required coordination and a precise timeline to capture all of our photos. At one point, our bus was stuck in traffic on Michigan Avenue and we had to get out and run to the Wrigley building to take all of our photos. Instead of that being a stressful moment, it turned into one of the more fun and unique moments of our wedding which was due in large part to the photography team being flexible with the quick change of plans. We are so thankful for Emma and Jeremy's positive attitude and we are in love with all of the pictures we have from our wedding.

Oh my goodness, where do we even begin with Mariah from King and Opal Photography? Five stars just don't seem like enough to express our gratitude and absolute adoration for this amazing photographer! From the moment we met Mariah, we knew we had struck gold. She's not just a photographer; she's a guardian of our wedding dreams! Mariah fiercely protected our vision for the day, and her unwavering commitment to ensuring we got every single shot we wanted left us feeling like true VIPs. What we love most about Mariah is her infectious laid-back attitude combined with unwavering confidence. She radiates a calming energy that made us feel at ease throughout the entire process. Her confidence in her craft assured us that we were in the best possible hands, and she absolutely delivered on that promise. Planning a wedding can be a whirlwind of stress, but Mariah's exceptional organizational skills took a massive load off our shoulders. And then there's her style! Mariah's artistic eye and unique approach to capturing moments is the reason she caught our eye. She has an incredible knack for finding beauty in the ordinary and turning it into something extraordinary. Every photo she took tells a story, and we are beyond thrilled to relive our special day through her lens. But the most incredible part of working with Mariah is that she's not just our photographer; she's become a cherished friend. Her warmth, kindness, and genuine care for us as a couple go beyond anything we could have ever asked for. We feel truly honored that she was the one to document our wedding day. Mariah, you are a treasure, and we couldn't be more thankful for the stunning work you've done and the friendship you've offered us. Our hearts are bursting with gratitude.

We are a venue and always recommend TWA for our couples. They do such an amazing job and are courteous not to take photos where we ask them not to (We are a golf course and don't want couples taking pictures on playable areas of the course). Their photographers always do such a great job and the gals in the office are great to work with as well. Our couples are always so happy with how the photos turn out.

So there’s no “I” in team right?! While Captured Couture is the product of years of hard work that I built from the ground up. I have an amazing team because sometimes takes more than just me. For larger events or on occasions when I am already booked one of my team members will gladly assist with your event. We’ve covered hundreds of weddings together, and have refined our editing style and way of shooting to be completely consistent. You won’t be able to tell the difference. Pinky promise! No matter where you’re planning from when it clicks, it clicks.

My husband and I absolutely LOVED working with Jennifer! From our first meeting with her we knew she would be a great photographer! She came to our initial meeting prepared with ideas as well as samples of her work; which made my husband and I feel very comfortable moving forward with her. Her vision and her plan were clear. Jennifer is so professional and her photos really tell a story which is what we were hoping for. From our engagement pictures to our wedding day, Jennifer captured the feelings of the moments rather than just a bunch of posed photos (of course we had some of those too because you have to!). On the big day, Jennifer was very organized yet flexible. The custom timeline she provides for the day is BEYOND helpful and she does a great job at helping you/your group stick to the schedule. She helped to keep things flowing and was able to capture every image/moment we had discussed. I would absolutely recommend Jennifer!

Hi! I'm so glad you're here. I'm a Chicago-based wedding photographer here to help you tell your love story.

We LOVED working with Layne. She is such a positive energy and you can tell that she is so passionate about capturing the vibe and emotions of your wedding. When we look back at our photos we can see how it felt on that day. We were also unfortunate enough to experience a Covid wedding cancellation 2 months before our wedding was supposed to take place. Layne was very supportive and was willing to work with us to photograph our later elopement instead. Very communicative and a pleasure all around! We always recommend her when our friends are getting married as well.

I was that kid enchanted by Disney Princess movies and the idea of "true love". My true love revealed itself through photography. At 8, I grabbed my dad's camera and was hooked, thrilled to show people my world. I started with zoo animals, friends, and siblings, eager to freeze moments in time. As I grew, I learned from local photographers and knew by 17 that photography was my calling. Since then, I’ve captured love in all its forms: couples, new parents, best friends, and the joy of seeing your favorite band live. The world is full of magical firsts, and I'm honored to capture these moments forever.

Hey there! I’m a weddings and couples photographer based in Chicago, IL with my partner Emily and my rescue dog Daxter. I’m here to document joy and celebrate all the meaningful moments with the kickass people that find me.

Sam has second shot two weddings with and for me, and both times I was so pleased with his final images, but more importantly his enthusiasm on wedding days and instincts as a photographer! Sam has such a positive energy about him that makes him the perfect person to have by your side on a wedding or elopement day (whether you're a fellow photographer or the people getting married!), and it's evident in his photos that the couples he works with feel that good energy. Whenever I see his work, I always think that the couples look so relaxed and like they're having a genuinely good time in front of his camera, which is such an important part of capturing the unique love between two people on their wedding or elopement day.

Six years of taking bright, colorful, fun wedding photos in the city has taught me how to deliver a complete gallery of your day told in an artistic, meaningful, and unobtrusive way--because I'm here to document your day, not to direct it.

I've picked up a camera just about every day since I fell in love with photography in 2013. Though every shoot holds something unique, it takes a lot to catch me off guard after nearly a decade in business. I pride myself on my ability to quickly connect with my clients, making them feel comfortable, cared for, and confident that they look great. Not every event I’m at goes exactly according to plan and I know how to roll with the punches. Being a helpful and calming presence in the midst of your wedding is second nature to me. Basically, I try to treat people how I want to be treated: with fairness and understanding!

Awarded Best of Zola
There are a lot of great photographers to choose from in Chicago and Zach is one of them. But I don’t need to tell you that, because you’ve probably checked out his work or you’re about to. What I will tell you is that Zach is exactly the kind of guy you want to have as one of your vendors. He is professional and experienced, but most importantly of all, flexible and so so nice. I didn’t actually meet Zach until the day of the wedding at our first look photoshoot. Although he seemed nice over email and I was reassured by my friend who recommended him, I was nervous about me and my partner feeling awkward and it showing in our pictures. But Zach put us at ease right away and was helpful in suggesting poses for each shot, something my partner and I definitely appreciated! Zach knew the Garfield Park Conservatory like the back of his hand, which also helped us navigate through the maze-like place within our short allotted time. Fast forward to post-ceremony - time for family portraits. The space we had in mind for the family group shots was a no-go due to some logistical issues. Zach was quick to roll with the punches before I could even think of a solution. He quickly talked to our venue manager and helped move our family members to a different area before my partner and I could even worry about what to do. During the reception, Zach moved discreetly from one end of the venue to the other, capturing all the special moments of the night. While there were other vendors that caught my attention throughout the night due to issues, Zach operated independently and flawlessly. To put a cherry on top, Zach’s pricing is very affordable compared to other photographers’ standard rates AND promises to get pictures back to you in a freaky fast timeline (I forget the exact time but it was incredibly fast). I wholeheartedly recommend Zach to any couple looking for a professional photographer who will not only get you great pictures but help you feel relaxed and therefore look your best on their special day!

Hi! I'm John, a wedding photographer based in Chicago, IL. I believe deeply that great wedding photography is about creating imagery that is as visually compelling, as it is emotionally significant. Weaving the images together to tell unforgettable stories. My distinct 'documentary meets fine-art' style is a product of my unrelenting commitment to my craft and the complete trust that my couples place in me. I primarily cover weddings in the Chicagoland area, but I will travel to any destination worldwide for those seeking an adventure.

Awarded Best of Zola
John was an amazing photographer! He was always communicating with us before and during the wedding. He was always available to talk which for a nervous bride helped a lot. During the wedding, he was very professional. He made sure we got the shots we wanted but respected our parents when they asked for extra shots. He came up with shots we never thought of that turned out to be our favorites! Hire John for all your special functions! I know we will be reaching out again to him.

All her communication was so clear and direct, yet was flexible on the day with us. We were so comfortable with her.

My husband and I never had a professional shoot taken before, so we were a little nervous before taking our engagement photos. Aileen made it so fun, by the end we forgot there were tons of people staring at us! My favorite thing about Ed & Aileen Photography is their knack for candid shots. They are all about the fun and just being yourself. This is what sold us on them, the second we saw their photos we knew we HAD to work with them. Planning anything with them was super simple and easy. No waiting around for days or weeks at a time to get a response. They were by far our favorite vendors. So much so that 2 of my friends are using them for their weddings next year! USE ED & AILEEN PHOTOGRAPHY, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! They are modern day photography super heroes!

It hasn't steered me wrong yet, infact it has brought me here. To you.

I am a wedding planner with Storybook Weddings and Events, and I am a huge fan of Jennifer not just as a photographer but as someone I love to work with and refer to my couples. She is professional and easy to work with when planning a wedding day, and her pictures are STUNNING! She makes my brides feel comfortable and confident in themselves on wedding day and spends time to get to know their personalities to make sure the day is stress free. One of the things I always tell couples when looking at a photographer is that they should request to look at full galleries vs just looking at website photos or instagram. It is important to see consistency in a whole gallery that retells your wedding day and not just have a couple pictures that are great. I cannot recommend Jennifer enough, and I am looking forward to working with her again during wedding season this year :)

We brought along our dog for our engagement photos, and Cristina never batted an eye during his less-than-cooperative moments. She made the engagement photo session a complete breeze and so much fun from start to finish. Her partner, Constantin, joined for the wedding day, and they made the most incredible photography duo. They captured all the important moments and ensured that we got every last photo we wanted. They also handled corralling everyone for large family photos in an extremely timely and orderly fashion.

Hi guys! My name is Allie!!! I am a traveling wedding photographer based out of chicago & texas. My heart literally beats for wedding days and redemptive stories. I love celebration + commitment + dance parties + traveling!!! It is my honor to capture the sweetest stories. My couples become verrrry dear to my heart, and it gives me the deepest joy to be part of engagement season + wedding days.

Allie was amazing from day 1. Before the wedding she made sure to help us organize our photography plan on our wedding day. We didn’t have an event coordinator and the day still went so smoothly because she helped walk us through the day. She gave us some great pose and location options, gave us a questionnaire so she knew what we wanted, and worked with us to make it the best experience possible. I would hire her again in a heartbeat. Allie is also very kind&sweet, since the photographer spends the whole day with you it was great to have someone who was just a great human there. She felt like a photographer and a friend. You won’t regret hiring Allie for any photography need you have! She works hard to make sure you’re happy with the outcome :)

I began my career as a photojournalist working for newspapers and magazines documenting current events, sports and pop culture. Creating meaningful images is at the heart of being a photojournalist and it's this mentality that I bring to my wedding photography. I work to create timeless images that truly tell the story of one of the most important days of your life.

Peter was recommended to us, by our sister and brother in-law. When we met him, he was so down to earth and easy to work with! He even was able to make my husband smile! He made it easy to feel comfortable in front of the camera, as we chatted about all of our travel adventures! When it came to our wedding date, we had to postpone due to Covid-19. He was so thoughtful and understanding and kept in touch with us throughout this hard time. He was so reachable and always answered my many phone calls and texts! When we decided to get married with a small ceremony in my parents’ backyard, he was there to capture all of the memories! We cannot wait to work with him when it comes time to have our big wedding with all our family and friends, as well as all of our life’s milestones we want to be captured! We continuously get compliments on the pictures he has shot for us! He has an amazing eye for detail! There is no better photographer than him!!!

I made a conscious decision early on in my career that I wanted to LOVE what I do and do what I love. With a bachelor’s degree in graphic design and photography you could say I’m one of the few that stuck with my major and still love it to this day. I’m a helpless romantic, a wife, a mother, a worldwide traveler a marathon runner and a wedding photographer. Deciding who will bring your memories to life is one of your most important ones. When the whirlwind and excitement of the day is over, beautifully captured images will be what help you revisit the romance, emotion and spirit of all of those little moments.

Christine was an absolute dream to work with! Shortly after booking Christine for our November 2, 2019 wedding we scheduled our engagement shoot with her - during the shoot we knew we hit the jackpot. Christine was calm, cool, and so easy to be around - she provided super easy direction and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We couldn't wait to spend our wedding day with her! Christine was incredibly organized throughout our planning process. Leading up to the wedding day she created a very thorough timeline for the day - which was necessary given the size of our bridal party and families and the logistics of the day. Everything ran so smoothly on wedding day and Christine captured all the shots we wanted - our families and bridal party loved working with her too. And, of course, our photos are absolutely stunning! We couldn't be happier with our experience - thank you, Christine!!

I'm just a suburban girl who decided to turn her dreams into a reality. I'm all about building relationships and connections. After all, that's what wedding photography is all about. I do this job every weekend because I'm one of those people that is obsessed with pictures. Not just for a living, but for myself. I understand the value in photography. I do this for people who are just like me. For the ones who cherish those photos hanging on the walls. The photos still in that purple glitter album from 2002 of you and your friends in Limited Too. Those memories are all we have from the anchors that built us. Photos are proof that we have lived

She is so easy to communicate and work with and her second shooter, Chelsea was also a dream! I loved having them there as well as my now husband and the rest of our bridal party/families.

I truly couldn’t have asked for a better photographer on our wedding day. She had done my graduation pictures, so I wanted to have her do our wedding pictures due to how amazing the grad pictures came out. She is extremely proactive - she had us meet 2 times before the wedding in order to go over details and background on my husband and I. I could truly see that she genuinely cares about each of her clients and giving them the best day possible and figuring out what’s important to each couple. I really appreciate this because felt like a collaborate effort. On the day of the wedding, she had the BEST energy. Her joy, positivity and personality truly shine and radiate. I received so many comments on how much guests loved our photographer because of how lively and wonderful she was. Additionally, she was extremely creative by having us do table shots and working with the DJ to turn it into a fun game of which table was the fastest. We and our guests had such a fun time with this idea, and how we were able to get pictures with all our guests. I truly can’t recommend LaTosha enough. She is authentic, creative, radiant, talented, and so wonderful to work with. Our wedding day and pictures came out beautifully and because of her it was stress free and fun!

We are blessed to photography many weddings & events around the world. We've had the honor to photograph many celebs as well. All our clients are a blessing & we know it’s an honor to be chosen to photograph their memorable event. We are grateful to all who has given us the privilege to work with them. We strive to tell our couple’s story & reflect their energy in each photograph. Like Elton John & Bernie Taupin, we work in two rooms: Bob is the principal photographer & handles all the logistics of our shoots. Dawn completes our vision by editing photos & making each image sing, then designs a fine art book to encapsulate the each story.

Bob & Dawn were nothing short of amazing to work with. My husband and I changed our wedding plans quite a bit, but decided to move forward with a small and intimate wedding on our original date. Bob & Dawn were so accommodating and easy to work with, they took a ton of stress off my plate. Every single picture from our day is perfect. Bob captured every moment that I was hoping for....AND MORE. I feel as if I have an intimate relationship with the two of them now, they were involved in some pretty important and special moments of my life, and I am so grateful to have met them and gotten to work with them during a stressful time. Although I had a COVID wedding, you would truly never tell from our photos and everything I was hoping for was delivered by this dynamic duo. I know I will stay in touch with them over the years, and am grateful to have worked with them when I did!

I have said it before and I will say it time and time and time again - Nikki is one of the most talented, genuine, and kindest souls you will EVER meet! She photographed our wedding on October 4th, and I continue to receive the sweetest comments from my bridal party, family members, and wedding guests regarding how accommodating, polite, and sweet Nikki is! Although we have only received a "sneak peak" of our photos thus far, I have received ENDLESS compliments regarding the quality of these photos. Her photos are warm, timeless, intimate, and just full to the brim with love. We had a tight timeline on the day of our wedding leaving limited time for photos, and Nikki was AMAZING at taking charge of the situation and helping to keep everyone on track to ensure we would get the photos we desired. She is organized, timely, and poised and professional in all her interactions with both us and other vendors the day of. I would pick Nikki time and time again for any and all life events because I just know that not only will she take the photos, but they will be photos that we will treasure and share for a LIFETIME.

I've been doing photography since high school years. After seven years working as photo journalist, I worked for 5 years on cruise line industry in the photography department. It was 2000 when I became a wedding photographer and opened our own photography studio.

As an event coordinator I look for vendors who are professional, a great value, and a team player with the other vendors at the event. Doru & Claudia Halip are at the top of that list. They have a real caring for their clients needs, making sure the photographic part of the day goes smoothly, with no drama. Many photographers do phenomenal work, however it is all about them, not the Bride & Groom. Doru & Claudia stay in the background, and their work is amazing. Many of their finished pieces have been magazine worthy, and have been published. You don't have to be a model to have incredible photographic memories of your big day, if you hire H Photography!

Thank you for stopping by and looking through my work. I approach wedding photography with two philosophies: One is to be photo-journalistic. Capturing those unexpected moments, a flirty glance, a secret kiss or a burst of laughter. These are the small details and intimate moments that tell your story. My other philosophy is to be editorial. To direct, compose, and create interesting shots. These are the pictures that will be high-impact, dramatic and creative. Although I have a photo-journalistic approach throughout the day, I understand the importance of formal family pictures. So, be assured we will get all of those as well.

Abel did our wedding last year (3 weeks before the pandemic hit) and the whole process could not have been more professional, easy, or smooth. He walked us through his processes each step of the way, he was flexible with any hiccups along the way (we accidentally tried to set up engagement photos in the middle of the Chicago marathon route and had to find a new venue on the fly). We had phone call meetings to make sure every step was covered. On the day of our wedding he was attentive, professional, and was able to motivate everyone while photographing. During dinner, everyone knows that taking pictures at all of the tables can take forever. Able was able to keep things moving while also keeping all of the guests happy at the same time. He also has a great eye for shot set up and is quick to find the perfect shots. We had photoshoots by a train station when we were lucky enough to have a train arrive. He was able to get us in a great spot and get the photo op in an instant. Afterwards, he kept us informed on where he was in the process on getting everything processed and even during the pandemic lockdowns and he made sure to find a way to keep us in the loop and get our pictures to us in a timely manner. Again, we can not recommend Tequila Weddings or Abel any higher!!!

We've photographed love stories from Mexico to the Rocky Mountains and beyond. We've also been ranked among the world's best wedding photographers, but what matters most to us is what our couples think. Our goal is to blow your mind with photos that make your mother-in-law cry and your best friends say "holy shit!" If you want wedding photos that aren't just wedding photos, you're in the right place.

Holy sh**. Excuse my language, but It is needed to make sure that those of you reading this understand how sincerly amazing Jay and Larissa are. We have used them to photograph us personally as a couple and have used them for a wedding of family friends; and newborn pictures of my Niece, Harper. Each and every experience and photo shoot and email and text and phone call with them has been perfectly professional, fun, and reasonable. The prices are great, the people are great- and the photos are freakin perfect. Unique and fun and different- but also traditional for those seeking that. Jay and Larrisa are an amazing couple and they take seriously great photos. We will be using them for the next niece who is soon to arrive, and for engagement and wedding photos in the upcoming years. PLEASE give them a call today- they are the best!!!!!

I am a Chicago-based wedding + elopement photographer. I am available worldwide and love to travel! I document genuine moments for couples, no matter who they love. My images are the perfect mix of posed and photojournalistic, giving you gorgeous portraits without missing the important, candid moments you will want to remember for years to come. My approach to wedding days is simple: I want to make sure you have images of you two that you love and cherish and tell your wedding day story.

Tawny did both our wedding photos and our engagement shoot, and we were so happy with both results! She got just the vibe we were looking for and had a great mix of posed and candid shots. Turnaround was quick and all of our guests said our photos were incredible, as well.

From my first moment as a wedding photographer, I knew I wanted to kick tradition to the curb. I was tried of seeing wedding photography that excluded the communities that I hold closest. I work hard to form a real connection with each of my clients to craft an experience that captures their unique spirit.

100/10 would recommend! Ashley & her partner, Liv, were incredibly easygoing, and downright fun to be around. Ashley took the time to go over how she could capture the moments that were most important to us, our desired aesthetic, and wedding planning timelines/details along the way. During the formal shoots, she guided us in all the right ways, and the organic moments she captured outside of that were thoughtfully executed. She was timely with the edits and the final photo galleries are everything I hoped for (and more). When I say I cannot stop looking at our wedding photos, I’m not exaggerating - they are stellar. We’ve also gotten countless comments from friends and family about how perfectly our wedding day was captured. I was lucky enough to stumble upon the Unabridged Photography website after perusing for wedding photographers in the Chicago area on the Knot; I was struck by how well she captured light, movement and detail (not to mention our mutual love for ABBA discovered in her Bio). I cannot recommend Ashley (and Liv) more highly!
