Those Mckissics Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,800
  • Serves Crystal Lake, IL for additional fees

We are David and Rachel McKissic, the owners and photographers. We have been in business for 9 eventful years in Indianapolis, and beyond. We took a risk with no experience, a love for art, and a love for love. We made this decision after we said "I do". We were going to buy a couch but we opted to chase a dream. We are still chasing that dream and capturing so many amazing moments along the way. We have 3 wonderful children who are the fuel of our lives' drive. I (Rachel) am a lover of detail and David lives life on the edge. Together, we are a complementary couple and you'll definitely sense it when you work with us! Let's connect!

Awarded Best of Zola
We cannot speak highly enough of Rachel and David. They were so chill and amazing during both our engagement and wedding sessions. They were patient and kind in giving us direction and feedback during poses, but also adept at capturing the special off-guard moments. There were able to capture the absolute joy and raw emotion that we and our guests felt on our wedding day, and which we'll now remember forever because of them. We can't wait to work with them again.

MSW Photos

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Crystal Lake, IL for additional fees

I love telling wedding stories, first and foremost, through capturing moments. Your wedding is a one of a kind event from the location to your style and personalities, but it also includes a unique group of people that have come together to celebrate your union. On your wedding day I focus on capturing the love and laughter, the tears and joy, but also the energy of the party! When it's over I give you a gallery of images that will bring all those emotions back every time you pull them up on your computer, share them online, crack open your album, or walk past them on your wall.

When I think of Matt and MSW Photos, WOW comes to mind. They are incredibly creative and think outside of the norm. They take the time to get to know you and focus on delivering amazing photos you'll be thankful you have for years to come.

Hello, and congratulations on your engagement! My name is Kasey Curry, and I am the owner and lead photographer of Kasey Curry Photography. I am a traveling photographer based out of Omaha, NE, specializing in engagements, weddings, & boudoir.

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Crystal Lake, IL for additional fees

Indianapolis Wedding Photographer specializing in joyful and inclusive wedding photography! My ultimate goal as your photographer is to make sure you feel comfortable and confident as HECK in front of a camera. It's unnatural to pose, I get it! That's why I make it fun and personal so it feels effortless. I am a sucker for a true candid photograph, so you can bet on me cracking jokes and being silly with you to break you out of that shell! I love people. And I love people showing their love to OTHER people... you see the cycle?

Zoe helped us when we lost our photographer for our wedding at the last second. She called immediately to go over details of any special items that needed to be captured along with our schedule. She sent over the contract immediately for review - the turn around time/responsiveness was impressive!! Not only did she help us out, she was a pleasure to work with! She had us laughing the whole time and it was a super comfortable/organic experience. She captured moments with our family that I will cherish forever. I cried and laughed while looking at our gallery - she was able to capture so many emotions of the day. The photos are beyond beautiful and the editing provides a timeless look and feel. I would highly recommend working with Zoe if you’re thinking about it. I cannot say enough good things about this super talented woman!

  • Serves Crystal Lake, IL for additional fees

We’re Kristyn and Jon! We’ve been together since 2014 and got married in 2019 with an epic disaster of a wedding! We planned it so carefully and thought of every detail so we could give our guests the ultimate experience (being wedding pros and all) and ended up with a monsoon that caused our tent to start collapsing! In the end, nothing went as planned except that we did what we set out to do- marry each other! While we can’t control the weather on your day, we can make it an amazing, fun-filled experience and be able to tell your story in the most authentic way possible, creating a work of art with your memories at the center of it.

We've worked with Blush a few times and they are amazing! They get proofs back on time, and their final results are stunning. They are on time, professional, and easy to work with. I would highly recommend them for all of your photography and videography needs!

We will really treasure these forever :)

I’m known for documenting candid moments in a bright and vibrant way. I love capturing and creating narratives from start to finish - being a wedding photographer and videographer is the ultimate storytelling experience, and it’s one of my greatest joys.

Hi, I’m Bryson! A St. Louis, Missouri + Southern Illinois-based wedding, engagement, and portrait photographer and filmmaker for those couples who see the world with wide-eyed amazement, who value the artful nature of their unique stories, and who are always up for a little something new.

Bryson and his team were a joy to work with for our wedding photography. They showed up early and were ready to go, helping make the day run smoothly. Bryson has a knack for putting people at ease while bringing out their best smiles. He called my family and friends by their nicknames, making it feel lighthearted. The photos captured the emotion and special moments without feeling overly posed or cookie-cutter. Bryson went above and beyond to scout locations ahead of time and was open to suggestions that highlighted what made our wedding unique to us as a couple. The final album I have no doubt will tell the story of our wedding day in a creative, meaningful way that we will treasure. We highly recommend Bryson Buehrer Photography for couples who want stunning, artistic photos that authentically capture the spirit of their celebration.

I want to not only help you have the most amazing wedding day ever, but I want you to be able to relive it over and over again through your images. To be able to create that reminder of how deeply invested you are in your love for one another is the biggest honor.

I love capturing real emotion and raws moments it fuels my little heart tank and keeps me going. I have the best job ever. Let’s make magic!

Could Jahni be any more amazing?! Part of me wants to gatekeep Jahni and her incredible work so that I can have her all for myself, but the other part of me wants to sing her praises forever because she is the best. Jahni did a couples session with us in 2020 and our wedding in 2022 after being delayed (twice) due to the pandemic. She was so flexible and easy to work with during pandemic times and we couldn't have appreciated that more! She made our wedding day so relaxed, fun, and captured all the moments that we wanted to remember. Honestly, she was one of my favorite parts of our wedding day and I will recommend her to everyone I know!

After lots of soul searching and a 7-year hiatus, I found my love for photography (again.

Jen was amazing! Prior to our wedding we booked our engagement photos with Jen, so we could practice poses. I had a very particular lighting style, and Jen listened to my wishes and used the most amazing light angles and edited the photos in the was I had asked for. Prior to the wedding we had phone calls and meetings to make sure we had a set list of the photos I wanted, so that the day of nothing would be missed and it was stress free. Wedding day Jen captured every moment from getting ready, to the ceremony, family portraits, couples photos and even dances at the reception. Jen is kind, caring, respectful and professional.

Everything leading up to our wedding was wonderful and she was extremely helpful as we ran into some hiccups with other vendors and she was there to help us find someone just as amazing. The day of our wedding was better than we could have dreamed. Our vendor team was amazing, Cassandra took care of everything and some, she keep us on our timeline, made the day so enjoyable but also took charge so I wouldn't be stressed out. She is so talented and not only an amazing photographer, but a life long friend now.
