I grew my business after a desperate venture as a newspaper photographer over six years living with student loan debt in my father's basement. But, that soon changed... And in 2014 I had the opportunity to work with some of the best wedding photographers in the state line as a second photographer having 20 weddings that first year. It was brand new to me, it stirred a passion, and I realized I wanted to do this for a living. I found my calling, but that first year was rough, until...

Choosing Erik as our photographer was the best decision we made for our wedding day. Their work is pure magic—each photo a masterpiece, telling the story of our love with unmatched artistry. Professional, unobtrusive, and a true visionary, Erik’s effortlessly captured every emotion and moment. The post-production brilliance elevated the visuals to breathtaking heights. Not only is he an amazing photographer, but he also is a spectacular extra ‘honorary bridesman’ as he puts it. He helped out with so many things other than taking photos - like helping my mom with my buttons. His personality is professional and artistic but also hilarious and personal. We felt like we made a family friend during our time with Erik. If you're seeking an artist, not just a photographer, choose Erik for a wedding day turned timeless masterpiece. Our heartfelt thanks for turning our moments into an everlasting symphony of love. He is worth every penny and so much MORE!

I'M LEXI - TRUE TONE CINEMATIC STORYTELLR BASED IN N. ILLINOIS. E I love that you've found me - Welcome! As a photographer, I have a passion for capturing the rare love shared by couples on their wedding day. Being a mom and wife wanting to capture my own weddings forever moments I feel like that has given me a deep appreciation for creating timeless images that tell your unique love story. With my keen attention to detail and storytelling skills, I am committed to creating stunning photographs that will be treasured for a lifetime. Let's work together to capture your special day.

Rare Love Film was the way to go for us! I’ve always been insecure in how I look in photos but when we got our engagement pictures, I finally felt confident again! I was encouraged to take off the jacket I wore to cover my arms and told that every part of me was beautiful. I was nervous but when the photos came back, I was in love!! They turned out better than I could have imagined and instead of being insecure looking at them, they turned out to be photos that we will look back at for the rest of our lives! The way I was encouraged and supported made me know that it was the perfect choice! They are amazing to work with through the whole experience!

Whatever the occasion- from wedding celebrations & family photos to senior portraits and birthday parties- I’m here to capture it all.

This is the second time we booked Erin Henze Media to take family photos. Impressed that I received a pre-shoot survey so I could share the specific type and style of photos we were looking for. Erin took AMAZING photos of my family. No easy feat when you are dealing with a 6YO, 4YO, and 2YO. :P The photos she took will be treasured by family and are ones that will be hanging on the wall for a lifetime.

I'm Courtney! I care not only about providing you with sharp, authentic and colorful images on your wedding day, but helping you to be fully present on your wedding day so you remember all the big and little moments.

Courtney is everything you could want in a photographer. Photography was a top priority for my wedding and I'm so thankful I went with Expedition Joy. My photos are the exact "timeless, bright and airy (without being washed out)" that I dreamed of. She made us feel super comfortable, took feedback and let us request shots, quickly turned around our engagement session & wedding sneak peaks, and even let us sneak a shot back within 24 hours (insane!!!!). Photos are so important and you should book someone you can trust to give you the gift of those memories in the way you you want and envision them. Courtney did just that for us!! 10/10.

I'm Chrissy and I'm a documentary wedding photographer with 10+ years of experience who fully believes that your life deserves to be documented truthfully. My focus at your wedding isn't to steal you away from your family and friends for hours to make "art," but to empathically capture the moments and relationships present at your wedding. Your wedding photos are the single most important wedding investment you'll make. After the day is done and over, they will be what tethers you to your memories of your day. They will be the heirlooms you'll pass down to your grandchildren to hang on walls and sit on bedsides for generations to come.

We loved Chrissy! She was fun and easy to work with, and I loved that she provided color and black/white photos. She did everything on our list, and listened to our ideas as well. Nothing felt forced or over-posed, but she was great at guiding next moves when needed. Will definitely use again for future photos.

Pedro was awesome! We were looking for a local (in Chicago) photographer, and found the perfect one. He was super easy to work with, and took amazing pictures. Our initial meeting was via Zoom, which made working it around our schedule super easy. He was extremely responsive to all of my emails, and even was workable with our budget and what we wanted to accomplish with photography. I love his ability to take un-staged, in the moment photos as well as great family photos. He went above and beyond for us, and we are grateful for so many amazing photos to choose from. I would definitely hire him again in a heartbeat.

On our wedding day, their incredible attention to detail was evident in the stunning photos they captured. They were constantly checking in with us throughout the reception to make sure we were getting all the shots we wanted. As a couple who isn't always comfortable in front of the camera, Mario made us feel at ease and was able to create the exact type of photos we had envisioned.

Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving and laughing. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I got you!

Awarded Best of Zola
PictureMeThisByLacie was one of the best decisions we made throughout the wedding process. Lacie was amazing to work with the entire time. She was easy to communicate with and kept us updated on our photo timelines, not to mention all of our photos turned about AMAZING. Our package included an engagement session and Lacie worked out a weekend she was already in Chicago to accommodate us. Leading up to our session, we had issues with controlled fires and protests in our preferred location, but Lacie found us a spot that blew my expectations for photos out of the water. She gave us a sneak peak and also got our pictures back to us super quick. On our big day, Lacie and Tim(her husband/second photographer) were the best to work with. They made us feel comfortable and captured our day better than we could have imagined. As soon as they got there, they got straight to work. Lacie got all the details and getting ready photos that I will cherish forever. Things were running behind the day of and they let us add on an hour to our contract the day of and pay at a later date. This ensured that we got dance floor photos and it was so worth it! Specifically getting pictures of my husband's grandmother in her 80s dancing with all her grandkids. We received a sneak peak very quickly and our whole (massive) gallery less than 2 months after the wedding. For as many photos as we got, this was a crazy quick turn around. Overall, PictureMeThisByLacie captured our day better than we could have ever imagined, we could not recommend them more!

My name is Elliot Stokes and I am a photographer located in the Madison, WI area, but I work all across Wisconsin and Illinois. I have been drawn to the camera since I was young, but becoming a father has really shown me the magic behind capturing the most candid and beautiful moments of our lives. I started my journey into professional photography officially in the summer of 2019 and received my Bachelors of Fine Arts degree with honors in Digital Photography in the spring of 2022. I absolutely love what I do and look forward to every new experience and opportunity this journey takes me on!

Absolutely incredible. He scouted out our shoot spot after a storm hit, incredible response time and turn around time but above all, just absolutely kind and you really felt like you got to know him in the time span of taking your photos. As people who have never had professional photos done and don’t like getting our photos taken at all, it was an incredible choice and we are SO glad we went with Developing Diamonds. Our family and friends loved them and couldn’t believe how well he was able to capture the moments where we were posed but it didn’t look like it. We recommend to everyone.

You are probably assuming my about me section will have a story about how I always wanted to be a photographer, I came out of the womb holding a camera, but that couldn’t be me. I stumbled into it, literally. I had no plans to become a wedding photographer. I was either going to follow my dad’s path and go to dental school, or become a social worker. But a freshman in college decided to shoot a few photos for fun, and now over eight years and almost 200 weddings later, I could not imagine myself doing anything else. This is my dream job!

Abby wasn’t able to travel to my wedding but she sent her assistants and she edited the photos. It went absolutely perfect. The photos were beautiful and I got so many meaningful photos with my family and his family that I wouldn’t have thought to get. I sent her draft of a timeline and the photographers printed it out and had it to make sure the photos I wanted got done. They were absolutely amazing. Thank you so much to Abby and her team.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

Chelcie and her team were an amazing addition to our wedding day. From the very beginning, Chelcie was great at communicating, and helpful - she made the entire process seamless. She helped create our day-of timeline and even helped with some of our wedding stresses. The quality of her work is truly genuine, capturing all the candid and special moments that made our day so incredible. Even including our engagement shoot! Chelcie and her team went above and beyond, checking on both of us throughout the day, making sure we stuck to our timeline, and even arriving and staying longer than expected to ensure they captured every moment. Chelcie is so passionate, and it really shows in the beautiful photos that we'll cherish forever. She even brought us drinks, helped fix my hair and dress, and made sure Chase and I were taken care of all day long. Chelcie Lou Photography is our forever photographer, and we couldn't recommend her more highly!

Bonie Weddings was a great choice for my husband and me for our wedding photo & video shoot. We heard about Bonie Weddings through Zola and saw some great reviews from real couples.

First off, their turnaround time is amazing that is 18 days and they offer the best prices and additional value to our couples. Secondly, their team made us feel so comfortable. I don’t know how to explain it, but they were so professional and took their work seriously.

Hey there, Hana here! I’m a Milwaukee based wedding and elopement photographer and the face behind Hello Hana Photography. Since starting my photography career, my number one goal has always been to make sure couples are 100% comfortable in front of my lens. Forget the days of stiff posing & fake smiles - NONE OF THAT HERE. I’m all about capturing the raw and real moments. The moments that you’ll look back years from now and still be able to relive every single second. Your wedding day is about YOU and I am determined to help make that happen. I truly believe that your wedding day should be unique and special, just like your love story.

Awarded Best of Zola
Upon my call with Hana, I knew I had to book her! She was so sweet & I could tell how much she cared about her work. The timeline process was smooth & I was fortunate to have her come for our Rehearsal boat ride and get pre-wedding coverage of us together and with our guests. She brought the greatest second photographer, Morgan, & they were both a wonderful addition to our day. Their personalities make you feel like they’re fun, sweet guests and not just another vendor. Not to mention, our photos feel like they’re out of a movie! My husband & I already framed two of our sneak peeks and can’t wait for the rest of her beautiful photos!

My name is Jana Blue and I've been photographing weddings for 12 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
From the moment we met Jana, we knew we had found our wedding photographer. Jana immediately made us feel comfortable and confident that she had our most important day well under control. She had us laughing and relaxed in our first meeting as she beamed through the zoom screen, exuding a true interest in our love story; and she was soo attentive to details - she brought up many important specifics that we wouldn't have thought of on our own. Our first opportunity to work with Jana was our engagement photos, that's when we, again, truly knew we made the right choice. Jana is very easy to work with, even though she's really specific in how she wants you to pose -- and the results were fantastic. When we got the engagement photos back, we saw how unique Jana's photography is. We looked great(!), but also...all the colors around us popped, she caught natural light in a really beautiful way, and the "stories" she told through our poses were all so special compared to the other photographers we looked into. Our wedding day threw every challenge possible at Jana... inclement weather, pushy-other-brides-photographers doing their shoots in the same space, and even a traffic-blocking protest when we were traveling to the venue... and Jana remained resilient, calm, and on-task. We booked a 2nd photographer, Gail, through Jana, who was also fantastic, our only regret from our special day was not booking Gail for longer, as both of them were able to capture every special moment of the ceremony/reception/formals. To ensure you get the whole days' events and both get-ready rooms, we highly recommend future couples to book both for the majority of the day. Thank you Jana and Gail, for making our special day memorable, perfect, and genuinely beautiful....and we have the photos to prove it!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I can't recommend Kaitlyn enough. From the booking process, our engagement shoot, through the wedding itself Kaitlyn was thoughtful, professional, and attentive to our preferences and requests. She even drove 3 hours to do our engagement shoot in Wisconsin and was able to film our ceremony on her own! Her sneak peek the next day made us so so happy, and she got every photo on our list, including some out of order or spontaneous based on how the day went. We couldn't have been happier with Kaitlyn's services! Rachel & Alex

I captured my first wedding in August of 2018, it was the day I fell head over heels in love with wedding photography. It's all about capturing the love story for me..the feels from beginning to end. When you book with AGS, you're signing on for an adventure. Your engagement session is a celebration full of us getting to know one another, lots of laughter, and having fun! As your wedding nears closer AGS will help with your timeline, connect with your vendors ( or introduce you to some of the best) and help plan out the perfect photo locations, along with any other needs to create the perfect day.

So easy to work with. Pictures turned out so perfect. Not to mention she’s so kind and full of positivity! Would highly recommend!
