We can not recommend IG PHOTO VIDEO INC enough. We had Tetyana and Egidijus as our photographers and Irad as our videographer. We also were in contact with Ivan. He was extremely communicative throughout the entire process. From introducing us to Tetyana, Egidijus and Irad, How the process would happen from start to finish to getting our photos and videos back. The photos and video blew us out of the water. We are so in awe of the work and quality they put into our day. They were truly the best to work with from start to finish. The only thing is we have so many pictures I can not choose a favorite. (But that's a great problem to have) They truly captured my husband and I in our photos and videos and we are so blessed we came across their page. This company is 100 percent worth the money and we wouldn't have changed a single thing. You guys were amazing in person and in your work! You can definitely tell they love what they do by the work they produce. A huge thank you to Tetyana, Egidijus, Irad, and Ivan for helping make our day extra special and a day we can look back on in 50 plus years!

Meg Dunn Photography

Timeless | Romantic | Classic Wedding photographer - I believe in the idea that "great photos are created from personal connection." I put my heart and soul into making sure the couples I work with have the best possible experience and end up with images that we can both be proud of. My favorite part of taking photos is being able to find the special moments within your big milestones. It's those candid times, along with the significance of the occasion, that come together to create your favorite memories and it's my job to capture those through my visual storytelling.

Meg was an absolute pleasure to work with! From engagement pictures to our actual wedding day, Meg felt more like a good friend than just another vendor. She and her assistant, Vic, took the time to understand our priorities and ensure that each and every moment we wanted to capture was covered. In addition to this, they were also insanely creative creating images we didn’t even think about or consider. You’d be silly not to consider her.

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 was AMAZING! I found Expedition Joy on instagram when she was doing a giveaway contest for a free Engagement session. To our suprise and BIGGEST BLESSING— we won! When my husband and I met Courtney, we instantly clicked! She was so easy to talk to and made us feel so comfortable so quickly! She was very intentional about building trust with her and having a friendship as well! We had great conversations during our shoot and got to learn about her aswell! After our session, my husband and I both agreed that we NEEDED Courtney to be a part of our big day. We expressed our excitement with Courtney just as much as she expressed hers with us! During the planning months, she was so easy to reach and made us feel confident that she would go above and beyond for us on our special day and she DID. Courtney showed up camera in hand and started shooting the second she walked in the door! She was ON IT. She continued to encourage the bridal party and family so they felt comfortable as she was taking photos. She was so intentional with everyone! Courtney and her second shooter were the life of the party on the dance floor! They had a blast with us and it was so much fun for all of our guests to cheer them on when they went to bust a move in the center circle! Courtney continued her 5-star reputation throughout the night and even went above and beyond to stay past our contracted time for our grand exit! She took the most memorable photos of our day, we will always remeber her when we reminisce on our beautiful photos! She truly is Expedition Joy

Hey there! We are a husband and wife photo & video team who LOVE capturing love!! We are based in Rockford IL but are always up for travel too! We got married in 2016, started our business shortly after that and have had a blast getting to where we are today! Some of our favorite things are Thai food, coffee, pop punk music and most of all, our pup, Snickers!

Mitch and Rachel Visuals were the perfect photographers for our wedding day. From the very beginning, their communication style was easy, clear, and extremely helpful. They listened intently to what we wanted and didn't want in terms of photos, making the entire process stress-free and fun. On the day of the wedding, they moved quickly and efficiently to capture all the big group shots, easing any anxiety we had about sticking to the timeline. The final photos have turned out even better than we could have imagined - the quality of their work and the value they provided is truly top-notch. We highly recommend Mitch and Rachel Visuals to any couple looking for a positive, enjoyable photography experience on their special day.

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!

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Elliot was, hands-down, the best decision we made while planning our elopement. We were worried he'd not want to hike with us at Starved Rock State Park after our ceremony, but he was stoked to go on the adventure with us. He got to our ceremony spot with time to spare and was able to capture us gathering our 5 witnesses and walking them to the ceremony spot. Our ceremony pictures are so emotional. Elliot has a gift for capturing the depth of emotion being felt. He got beautiful photos of us with our parents that we will treasure for the rest of our lives. After the ceremony, we hiked for THREE HOURS!!! in and out of the canyons at Starved Rock State Park. The photos we got can only be described as fuc*ing epic. There were two canyons in particular I wanted to have photos taken and we were able to do both and so much before, after, and in between. We also got an insanely gorgeous video shot with drone footage, that we used to announce our elopement to our family and friends. We also got our sneak peaks back so fast! He was really good at directing us, especially as a couple who has never taken professional photos together before. He just made the whole process, the entire day, so much fun. We genuinely had such a great time and they are memories that we will never forget! Elliot was on time, professional, friendly, an expert in his field, and he did an absolutely outstanding job at capturing the most magical day of our lives. I still cannot believe these are OUR wedding photos. Thank you for everything, Elliot!

Working with Ashley was such a dream! Her attention to detail and vibes are amazing. We felt a little bit awkward during our engagement photo shoot just because we had not taken professional photos together before and Ashley was able to break the ice and keep us giggling the whole time. Do not question any of the silly things she has you do because your photos will be that much better for it. We would love to work with Ashley again in the future & cannot wait to display her work around our house!

Hello, Lovelies! Sheena here! I’m a Chicago Wedding & Engagement photographer located in Lockport, IL. I start from your wedding day, and I’m there to help with your timeline, set up our friendship, and so excitedly I have been with families from the wedding to the birth of their children, and one day on to their senior photos. Let’s capture your life as it grows and blossoms! Let’s work together to make some of your most beautiful moments your most precious memories.

Awarded Best of Zola
Sheena This was undoubtedly a match made in heaven. The moment one of the clients at the shop overheard my conversation with another client about how stressed I was about not being able to find a photographer for my upcoming last-minute wedding, I almost lost hope of ever finding a photographer until she suggested I look up Sheena Pinkerman. Before I contacted her, I first and foremost looked up her profile page and checked out her work to see if she would be someone that fits in with my personality and creativity. Well, lo and behold, I fell in love with her work the moment I saw it, and this was before I even spoke to her over the phone. When I finally did talk to her over the phone, she made me feel like I'd known her for years. Sheena was very communicative, informative, and understanding from the start, even when I was still unsure of what I wanted. She was extremely helpful and easily accessible when it came to addressing my numerous questions and concerns. She's essentially an all-in-one package, offering the perfect combination of creativity, skills, and expertise. Furthermore, she works with another photographer, Andrea, providing the added benefit of two photographers for the price of one. If you also book Lawrence for your videography, that's an additional bonus, as these three professionals work together seamlessly. They were so impressive that I'd consider having another wedding just to work with them again. I love Sheena and I know you won’t be disappointed if you book her for your wedding.

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!

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

From the moment we booked SimplyZoom Photography, Ardita was a joy to work with. Her communication was quick, efficient, and always friendly and professional. The quality of her work was simply beautiful, with an incredible attention to detail that captured all the special moments of our wedding day. Ardita was also happy to advise on the timing of events and the types of shots she thought we'd love, and she even helped my mother and me when we were getting ready.

Two Birds Photography

  • Serves Hanover, IL

Hi, I’m Jake Moreland—the photographer behind Two Birds Photography. I’m also a proud dad to three awesome boys (who I lovingly refer to as my unpaid interns) and a rescue cat who keeps me company—mostly by getting in the way in the best possible way. When I’m not behind the camera, you can usually find me out hiking, camping, painting, digging through vinyl records, or making something with my hands. I’ve always been drawn to the soulful, timeless feel of black and white photography, and that sense of honesty and simplicity is at the heart of everything I shoot.

Jake is so much more than a wedding photographer—he’s a true visual storyteller. Every photo he took is filled with emotion, intention, and artistry. Looking at our photos now, I’m instantly transported back. He captured not only the big moments but also the quiet ones: stolen glances, joyful guests, the delicate details of our table settings. He saw everything without ever being in the way—so calm, so observant, so low-maintenance that we barely noticed him, yet he gave us the most complete and beautiful memory of our wedding. His attention to detail and his ability to see the full picture and the tiny moments is truly special! Jake made us feel totally comfortable in front of the camera, never forcing poses or interrupting the flow of the day. Instead, he brought our photo ideas to life with his own artistic touch—elevating them beyond what we imagined. If you’re looking for someone who will give you timeless, meaningful, and artful photos while letting you fully experience your wedding day—Jake is the one.

We were so impressed and thrilled with the quality of the content Wedberry produced for our wedding celebration. Booking with them was very easy. Everything was primarily communicated through email. We had an American-Chinese style backyard wedding with a traditional tea ceremony portion. Wedberry was familiar and has experience capturing traditional ceremonies so that really drew me to book with them. They were very nice and professional. After the wedding, they sent the videos in a VERY timely manner. Faster turnaround than we anticipated. Our wedding day was kind of cloudy and rainy but they edited the photos so well that it looked like a bright and sunny day. We had a very positive experience working with Wedberry. We are glad we decided to book with Wedberry for our wedding!

I cannot put into words just how instrumental Lauren and her team were to our wedding day. I truly do not think it would have been possible without her. In case you need convincing, here are the top 10 reasons why you should have hired LAR Photography for your wedding yesterday: 1) (the most obvious reason) She is a genius behind the camera. She has a true talent for finding the beauty in every moment and capturing it. 2) She has a knack for making getting your picture taken not feel awkward, something we were very afraid about as people who don't often find themselves in front of a camera. 3) She has a wonderful team of people behind her. Shout out to Jared and Ashley as our second shooter and day-of coordinator respectively! 4) She goes above and beyond to make sure the final product is perfect (ie: color correcting every picture for my beautiful, wonderful maid of honor who unfortunately ordered the wrong color dress). 5) She is an expert on all things weddings. Lauren was the one who answered most of our wedding questions throughout the year-long process. This was not limited to photography questions. She knows how weddings work and gave us invaluable information about our timeline, our rehearsal, coordinating with other vendors, and the logistics of set up and tear down. 6) With Lauren, we felt like we were her only clients. Whenever we had a question, Lauren answered. She truly spent hours with us on the phone during the planning process. 7) On the wedding day, she is not just a photographer. Her and her team took care of literally everything that went wrong. They handled decor that broke. They made sure everyone in the wedding party was taken care of. Lauren even bustled my dress on when my mom and I couldn't figure it out. 8) Lauren is dedicated to her craft and her client's vision. We tasked her with taking a group picture that included every guest at our wedding. Was she too short to do this? Yes. Did she stand on a chair to get the shot anyway? Also yes. 9) The sheer volume of pictures that we got back from our wedding is outstanding. We have hundreds. During our first look through, we saved pictures that really stood out as favorites. We ended up adding 121 pictures to that favorites album. 10) Lauren is just an amazing person. She is dependable, professional, dedicated, compassionate, flexible, and a powerhouse behind the camera. We are so glad we found her.

Photography By Jill Emmer 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Hanover, IL

I’m Jill, a Wisconsin wedding photographer with 13+ years of experience capturing real, emotional, story-driven moments. My work blends candid documentary style with artistic, magazine-inspired creativity. I’ve photographed weddings across Wisconsin and beyond, and have partnered with brands like Nikon, Verizon, and Leinenkugel’s. I approach every wedding with warmth, curiosity, and intention—focusing on genuine connection, beautiful light, and the moments that matter most.

We couldn’t be happier that we chose Jill to be our wedding photographer. We knew we wanted someone to more accurately capture our day (did NOT want to have over-exposed, filtered looking photos or the hoaky, staged vibes) and her journalistic approach to her photography in combination with her joyful energy was PERFECT for us. We asked for a video chat prior to booking to go over some questions and concerns we had regarding the day and knew very quickly she was going to be the right fit for us. Given we both have a passion for photography ourselves, we greatly appreciated her expertise in a wide variety of elements (from bright, natural light to dark, interior spaces) and her realistic approach, which, alongside her experience and artistic vision led to crisp, beautiful photos representing us and our day. We also booked an engagement shoot with her, which we loved, as her bubbly personality immediately puts you at ease and allows you to get a sense of how to really be yourself in photos while still making them feel special. She was responsive and easy to communicate with through the whole process, really making the entire experience feel personal, and our wedding day was all that and even more fun. For the first part of the day she brought an assistant, Anney, with her, who was another ray of sunshine to work with to be a second set of hands, and we worked with Jill to hire a second shooter, Leiden, for a few hours later, who was wonderful as well. Jill being down-to-earth but also friendly and outgoing felt like the perfect combo so that we didn’t feel stressed throughout the day, but also that we could approach her with whatever our thoughts were. So many of our guests said (and keep saying) how much THEY also loved being around her at our event too. We legitimately got some amazing photos back of certain guests that we hardly EVER see smile for photos, which was just more proof how infectious her positive energy is and how great she is at what she does. We ended up with a ton of truly spectacular photos from our wedding for what we thought was a fair price, and that we got back in a very reasonable amount of time, all of which she takes the time and care to edit herself without making them look fake, filtered, or overly manipulated. I can’t overstate how much we loved having Jill as our wedding photographer and the way she perfectly captured us and our wonderful day.

Photography has been part of me for as long as I can remember—I’ve always had a camera in hand. Fun fact: my daughters are even named after a camera and after light (can you guess their names?). What I love most is capturing real, meaningful moments, especially weddings. Being able to preserve love stories in an authentic and lasting way is truly the heart of what I do.

Marissa was so helpful in helping us determine what packages would be most helpful for us based on our wants and the day of the wedding, she was helpful and professional. The pictures she took were amazing and better than we could have imagined! We've had her since take other headshots and couples photos. We trust her with our photographic memories!

Your wedding deserves more than just photos—it deserves an experience. With over 15 countries captured, I create timeless, editorial, and emotionally rich images that transport you back to the moment. Every glance, every touch, every fleeting second—preserved with artistry and intention.

Wow. Just wow. Choosing Moments by Frank was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the moment we reached out, Frank and his team were responsive, warm, and genuinely excited about capturing our day. It felt like working with friends who just happened to be incredibly talented photographers and videographers. On the wedding day, they blended in so effortlessly that our guests kept asking if they were longtime friends of ours. They made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, and their energy and kindness helped ease every bit of nervousness. They knew exactly when to step in for direction and when to let moments unfold naturally. And then came the photos… breathtaking. Every image told the story of our day with raw, elegant emotion. They captured the big, epic moments but also the fleeting ones—the teary glances, the spontaneous laughter, the way our parents looked at us. Looking through our gallery felt like reliving the best day of our lives, frame by frame. If you're on the fence about hiring Moments by Frank, just do it. They’re more than just photographers; they’re storytellers who will make your experience as seamless and joyful as the final product. Couldn’t recommend them more!
