Awarded Best of Zola
Hangout Lighting was a fantastic choice for our wedding reception venue. Jen's communication throughout the planning process was extremely prompt and helpful. I was looking for a space that was already partially decorated and set up, one that had some indoor and outdoor space, as well as one that allowed us to bring in any vendors of our choosing. Hangout Lighting delivered on all these points. We loved the lighting (of course!) and that the beautiful farmhouse tables and chairs were already perfectly in place. Jen offered a lot of flexibility in the timing of the day as well, so we could choose the number of hours that fit our event. I wish we could have celebrated past the 10pm last call and, looking back, might have started our event earlier in the evening to have more time. But all of the rules and guidance were extremely well communicated ahead of time, so we knew what we were getting into. The free street parking was plentiful, and the location worked great for us. Very glad we were able to celebrate our wedding at Hangout Lighting during the first year that they were hosting events in the space, as I think we got a great deal as well, having compared prices with some similar places in the area. Thanks Jen and staff!

Spoiler alert: I didn't grow up daydreaming about weddings. Instead, I grew up on shaky home videos and weathered family albums—so I know how important it is to keep memories alive. The problem? The internet is overflowing with photos that focus on trends over authenticity. That's why, in a world filled with filters + fads, I'm here to capture every real moment of your wedding day.

I couldn't have asked for a better wedding photographer experience. Not only was she professional and efficient, she knew exactly what to do to get two camera shy people to relax in front of the camera. If you are considering Chelsea for your wedding, DO IT! The pictures are extremely high quality and our whole wedding experience was seamless thanks to her.

Daniela Cardili Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $5,900
  • Serves Arlington Heights, IL

Daniela Cardili tells the story of your wedding day with heartfelt images that artfully portray this very personal event. She combines her unique sense of style and her passion for photography to create a photographic document that captures special moments, relationships, and love. Her style reflects a mix of a photojournalist’s reflexes, a portraitist’s eye, and the strong influence of the worlds of beauty and fashion. She continues to build on her abundant natural talent by attending workshops and seminars to keep up with the latest trends in wedding photography.

We live in New York but are planning our Chicago wedding which makes vendor selection tied to phone calls and e-mails. In a process that can feel so impersonal, Daniela made it immediately feel like she had known us forever! During our first call, she was down right excited about our wedding which made me even more excited! Since we were in New York, we originally decided to hire Daniela for our wedding and do engagement photos local to NY. Once the pandemic hit and we had to move our wedding, my fiance and I wanted to do something romantic together. We called Daniela and asked if she would do an engagement shoot for us in Chicago. I cannot tell you how happy I am that we decided to do that. It was the BEST day. We got to spend the evening laughing together, exploring our hometown, and enjoying each moment - that is exactly what Daniela captured. Scrolling through the photographs, I didn't know someone could capture love like that. I am so grateful to have these pictures forever and ever. If I could describe her final product it would be the perfect balance of high end, romantic, chic, natural. It is instantly clear looking at her photographs that she is an incredible professional who takes her craft very seriously all with a big smile and heart to make you comfortable to look and feel your best. We booked a vendor and ended up with a friend for life! Can't wait for the wedding!

Alana Lindenfeld Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $7,000
  • Serves Arlington Heights, IL

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. As much as I love taking photos (it's truly my favorite thing in the world!), I believe your wedding is about celebrating all your people being in the same place at the same time + kicking back and enjoying while I make sure all those memories are on camera.

Awarded Best of Zola
Alana Lindenfeld is literally the most incredible photographer and you should hire her right this second. My fiancé (then boyfriend) hired her to capture our engagement, and she absolutely hit it out of the park, exceeding any and all expectations. Truly. First of all, she was the absolute best person to have there during our special moment -- she managed to blend into the background so I barely noticed her during the proposal itself, while capturing literally the most amazing photos ever, and then when we transitioned into taking photos post-proposal, she was the most kind, enthusiastic, helpful, and wonderful. Her energy was infectious. (She even let me borrow her jacket to warm up because it was a chilly day, and she taught us how to spray champagne -- totally above and beyond!) Second, the photos themselves are AMAZING. I cannot believe how incredibly she captured the moment! I was in shock over how many different moments she managed to photograph (from the proposal itself to our family's reactions) and how beautiful every single photo was, without exception. They were ridiculously, insanely wonderful, and we will absolutely forever cherish them forever. To say I was glad that my fiancé found Alana would be a huge understatement. In sum, HIRE ALANA! You won't regret it. She is truly the best!!

Sierra was AMAZING. From the moment we met her at our consult, we knew she was the one. She was so professional, and would always check in with me to make sure I was doing okay and wasn’t freaking out too much! On the day of my wedding, she was there early, and even helped with getting my dress ready, and she helped calm my nerves by just sitting with me and listening to me vent lol. Her photos are amazing, but honestly the experience of working with her was one of the best I’ve ever experienced. I didn’t just gain a forever photographer, I gained a new friend! Definitely hire her - you won’t be disappointed!

I love to explore the urban environment with you and make your wedding portraits feel real and true to your life in the city. But I also take any chance I get to drag you to the woods or the beach for some barefoot wedding portraits. Aren’t we so lucky to have those right here in the city!

I found Essi after a pretty stressful engagement session with another company. I knew after our first phone conversation and seeing her work, I wanted her to be a part of our special day! Essi has such a great energy and wants to make sure the day truly captures the essence of the couple and we couldn’t be happier with our wedding pictures!! What I love most about her style is that she isn’t just in one lane but let’s the moment and picture dictate the style - light and airy, editorial, moody. She is such a positive, calming force and loved that we met with her and got to know a little bit about us before our wedding. I recommend Essi to anyone who wants amazing pictures from an artist who truly loves her craft!! :)

We were born from lessons learned by tackling the most important wedding to date; my own. A planner to my core, I never considered the need for assistance when planning and executing my wedding. And while I threw a truly great party, it came at the expense of me enjoying my own wedding. I took away from the experience the hard truth that just because I could, didn’t mean I should, and have turned that into something that I truly love; watching other couples bask in their moment, stress-free. We offer a variety of wedding and honeymoon services with the simple mission of creating beautiful, unique events that feel as good as they look.

Being a former actor who found a deep love and passion for wedding photography, I'm most drawn to the art of storytelling while creating honest and original work. I strive to make my images fully represent my couples in every way possible. I'm goofy, fun, and always create a deep connection with my couples to ensure their big day is captured with passion + care.

We are so happy we chose to work with Madi for our wedding photos and was one of best decisions we made. We immediately liked her on the first call as she was just easy to talk to and really took an interest in learning about our story. We could tell she had amazing organization skills, and her photography was exactly what we were looking for when it came to our wedding. She was friendly and personable and provided easy communication. She was very flexible, tolerated our need to bring our dogs into both the wedding and the engagement photos, and made us comfortable during the photography process. At our wedding, she was on time, and SO on top of things that I really didn't need to worry about anything getting done. She was on it and coordinated everything so seamlessly. She not only is excellent in her photography skills, but helped so much in establishing our timeline and sorting out what was actually feasible for the day. We really appreciated her expertise. I fully trusted her in the process and knowing that definitely took stress off of us. The best part, is she is just an awesome human!! I highly recommend Madi for your wedding!!

My husband and I got married here on December 30th and it was an absolute dream. We had our ceremony and reception on the 6th floor and our cocktail hour in between the two on the 5th floor. The space was beautiful with fantastic views of the park and the lake. Once the sun went down, the space within was a perfect blend of modern and romantic with warm soft lighting and beautiful decor. It was so nice not to have to provide an intense amount of decoration since the space was so lovely itself. Our guests were also very impressed and complimentary! Paulette and her team were both professional and enjoyable to work with. Everyone was so kind, supportive, and put our happiness first. They were accommodating of all the special dietary restrictions and decorative requests we had. The bridal suite was also a fantastic space to escape to for a breather throughout the event. I would absolutely recommend this as a wedding venue, event space or anything else your heart could imagine!

We were the videographers for Bridget and Kevin's wedding last September. From the start, we were very impressed! We met with Bridget and Kevin's entire team of vendors in-person, including Jill w/ Loft on Lake, as well as their photography and DJ team - something that isn't always done, believe it or not! We were given a clear rundown of the day and shown around their amazing venue weeks in advance so we knew exactly what to expect on the wedding day. Jill also went out of her way to ensure we (the vendors) were fed, which is something that SO MANY event managers/coordinators fail to do! We highly recommend hosting your wedding at Loft on Lake and we look forward to working there again soon!!

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.

We aren't your typical wedding photographers and videographers. And our kick ass couples aren't your typical brides and grooms. We are storytellers, and we capture moments made by people who are madly in love.

Awarded Best of Zola
We can’t rave enough about working with Ed & Aileen for our wedding photos! When we were hiring photographers, we wanted someone who could capture our day in a way that felt authentic. What was astounding (and frankly magical) about Ed and Aileen’s work is that their photos captured the events of the day AND the emotions of the day all in one. Ed and the team have a spidey sense for when something is organically working, and they find a way to prompt that further and capture it at just the right moment. The result is jaw-dropping photos that gave us the opportunity to relive all the best moments of our wedding. Ed and the team made the whole process—from planning to engagement shoot to the big day to edits afterwards—feel the perfect balance of organized, fun, and supported. We couldn’t recommend them highly enough!
