Egidijus and Quincy of IGphotovideo are the dynamic duo making dreams happen across Wisconsin, Illinois, and more (because they do weddings). In the days of Pinterest, every bride to be, or just girl hopping to get engaged, scours the internet, Pinterest, Instagram, etc. looking for the perfect engagement and wedding photos. Egidijus allows you to flood his inbox with all of the inspiration photos. When the time came for my engagement and wedding photos, they delivered! The pictures were better than my inspiration pictures! Egidijus took into consideration the photos and my own personal taste to deliver the most gorgeous photos. I cannot wait to see these printed on my photobook! The video shows each moment: getting ready, first look, ceremony, reception....we got 3 hours of video, highlight and teaser, which I share with my friends on Instagram - it is so incredible. I had hundreds of comments. Even before the weddings, I had a lot of questions, and Ivan from sales helped me a lot with the timeline and planing. Ladies, I cannot recommend IGphotovideo enough. The time you spend with them is so comfortable the pictures and video are a dream.

As a young couple getting married, it was scary to trust a company to provide everything we needed, but we felt very confident when we talked with Steve. The communication with Steve was great and smooth! They offered a Photographer, Videographer, DJ, and Photo booth! Ron, Austin, and DeAndre were the dream team. If I could give more than five stars, I would.

I am a bilingual (Polish, English) Chicago & NWI 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.

Roman Lorek Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, they were great communicators - open, honest, and responsive to all of our questions and requests. Their work is truly high quality, with an artistic and beautiful style that captured all the special moments of our day. They went above and beyond, making thoughtful suggestions and recommendations that helped make our wedding day even more perfect. Roman and Anastasia were friendly, professional, and made the entire photography experience easy and stress-free. They also did a "family" engagement shoot ahead of our wedding, which was the most fun I had ever had taking photos. Could not have been a better experience all-around! We would highly recommend Roman Lorek Photography to any couple looking for a talented and dedicated wedding photography team.

I don’t think I’ll ever stop raving about Ed & Aileen Photography. We worked with Ed for our wedding and engagement sessions, and it was a fantastic experience. We loved our engagement photos, and Ed surprised us with a 35mm film gallery from our wedding day. I don’t know how he has the energy to be everywhere at once, but he somehow does it. I can’t wait to see our digital photos. Every time I looked, he was there capturing moments. He brings a lot of fun energy everywhere he goes, and I can feel how much he loves his job. It shows in all his photos. If you want to work with a true professional, who gets down and dirty to get the right shots, Ed’s your guy. 10/10!! He coached us so we’d look our best, kept us on schedule, and expertly corralled our giant wedding party. All while leading us around the nature boardwalk at the Lincoln Park Zoo, finding the perfect spots. Thank you, Ed ️

We could not have been happier with the services and product we received! We picked Nora as our photographer as it seemed like she was great at using natural lighting and did a good job with capturing photos that weren’t posed. We were not disappointed! Nora made the process as easy as humanly possible and very comfortable. She was able to read us easily and could tell when the group was getting restless and even could tell if I wanted certain photos without me saying. Nora was the only photographer but managed to capture all the photos we could have hoped for. The ceremony photos were beautiful but the reception photos perfectly captured the night. The quality of the photos when we got them was spectacular. Additionally, the entirety of the photos were sent to us within just over 4 weeks despite the fact that they had 8 weeks. Lastly, we booked the DJ through essence as well (spinning’ discs) and Nora and the dj worked together great which made it that much easier. If you’re considering essence, do it - you will not regret!

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! Thank you for everything!!!

The easiest and most special part of my wedding!! I got married last August 2022 and planned it all by myself while being a medical student. Gubert Photos made the photography aspect of our wedding so easy and incredible - not to mention the actual photos, which were everything we wanted and more! Having this day captured was one of my biggest priorities and Gubert Photos did not fail me once. I was able to fill a whole scrapbook with all of our favorite moments from our wedding and thanks to the quality of the photos, we look at it all the time. I would recommend this company to anyone looking to capture any special party or event and I anticipate working with them again in the future!! Thanks again for being great!!

I'm a Chicago wedding and lifestyle photographer with a soft spot for cheap flights to foreign places. Living in Chicago, I've fallen in love with the art of contrast between industrial cityscapes and the elegance of a bride + groom. The aesthetic is both classic and transcenden

Shelly was the best wedding photographer any couple could ask for! She had such a calming presence with us both, while also ensuring all the photos we wanted were captured throughout the day. She was extremely professional during the entire process from initial meeting all the way to the final gallery. Her turn around time was incredibly fast, we had friends who were married months before us that still didn't have their photos by the time we did. My family and friends still talk about how good of a job she did every time they see us. Highly recommend for any and all couples, we will definitely be calling her again for future family photos :)

Hey all. I'm Chantal, a natural light photographer based out of Chicago, Illinois. Of course I love traveling domestically and internationally. If I could, I would travel every 3 weeks, haha. I’m a working mom of 2 under 2. Lover of The Golden Girls and a good cup of hot chocolate!

Booking Chantal was the best decision I made. She made my husband and I feel so relaxed during both our engagement shoot and wedding. She was just as laid back as we were, but still got things done on time and professionally. Our engagement shoot she helped my husband relax since he was so nervous (not a big photoshoot guy). And during our wedding Chantal and her second shooter Erika made myself and my wedding party and guests feel at ease. I owe them both so much for going ABOVE AND BEYOND on my wedding day. My day of coordinator had really dropped the ball and I was so stressed out, but then I went back into the bridal suite and Chantal and Erika were having a dance party to cheer me up! They really saved the day and were so good about pivoting and adapting to our rain plan. The best part was - I didn't feel like I took pictures ALL day. I felt like I had a balance and was able to talk with my guests and enjoy my day! But I still had the BEST sneak peak photos and am obsessed. I cannot wait to see my full gallery soon and I know it will be incredible. 5 Stars all around, can't wait to work with Chantal again in the future :)

I'm a type A planner with a type B laid back personality. Coffee & donuts are my love language. I'm sentimental and nostalgic of familiar memories, but love the adventure of exploring new places. If there's a word that I hope would describe me, it'd be genuine. I hope that seeps through everything that I do, and every image that I capture.

From the first moment we spoke with Melissa, we knew she was the right photographer for our wedding. She took the time to get to know us as a couple and our vision for our entire wedding to make sure she captured our special day perfectly. She handled my stress as the bride leading up to and on the day wonderfully by reassuring all was well. She made sure each special moment I relayed to her were pictured. She is the absolute best!
