  • Serves Dakota, IL

Greetings! I’m Phil, a passionate and creative photographer based in the vibrant city of Chicago. With a lens as my canvas, I specialize in capturing the essence of moments that tell unique stories. From the picturesque lakeside to the heart of the city, I specialize in crafting timeless engagement and wedding photos that reflect the love and joy of couples saying, "will you marry me?" and "I do" in Chicago. Chicago’s skyline is a masterpiece, and I take pride in capturing its grandeur. My architectural photography brings out the unique character of each building, from historic landmarks to modern skyscrapers.

Phil did an AMAZING job photographing our wedding. He strategized with us in the weeks before to plan which shots would be the most meaningful. And the day of the wedding he was the most patient accommodating and kindhearted photographer you could wish for. We are SO happy with how the photos turned out and would hire him again in a heartbeat. Thank you Phil!

Megan Pontus Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves Dakota, IL for additional fees

I started Megan Pontius Photography after I graduated Highschool in 2021. I didn't really get into couples photography until I got married in 2022. It wasn't until then that I really saw the different seasons in a relationship. Between the first date, to the 100th date, to getting engaged, stress of wedding planning, to the wedding day, and the days after that taking on life together. I'm here to make sure those moments are documented for you to look back on years later.

I've worked with Megan Pontius in the past and she is wonderful to work alongside during a wedding day. She wants the absolute best for her couples' experience and is professional and clear in communication throughout the day. I definitely recommend her photography services to any couples looking to book for their wedding!

Classic meets contemporary and vibrant. Although I do all types of shoots, I specialize in wedding photography and all the beauty it has to offer. I prioritize in capturing the essential moments of your wedding to give you cherished memories to look back on for a lifetime.

There are many things I can say about Michaela and 3leafphotography but the most important is how comfortable you can be around her. She is such a kind soul and she will give you the best pictures. She’s a photo wizard and I wouldn’t have anyone else do my pictures. She knows her stuff. If you are looking for someone you can instantly connect with and feel your absolute best, you can trust her to give you that. She is an artist and like I said, I wouldn’t trust anyone else to do my pictures. I have all the confidence to tell you that she is who you want!
