  • Serves Highland Park, IL

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!

Elliot made all of our dreams come true. His professionalism and talent does not go unnoticed. He was the first vendor we booked for our wedding before we even had a venue figured out because of how much we loved his work. He is incredibly responsive to texts and emails which is so important when planning a wedding. He was very prepared for the wedding day! Elliot was able to make sure we stayed on schedule and even moved events around when needed to get the best photos possible since our wedding was outside. He went above and beyond to make our wedding run smoothly. By the end of the night, we didn't want it to end so we even extended his services by an hour which he happily made work. We even had sneak peeks by dinner time which surprised us. We could not have asked for a better photographer for our wedding. I am recommending him to all of my friends with weddings in the future. I can't imagine my wedding any other way. Thank you Elliot!

Jana Blue Photography (Photo + Film)

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Highland Park, IL

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 start to finish, Jana made our wedding day in Chicago feel so special and unique. My partner and I spent 3 hours with Jana, who so graciously accommodated our numerous photo locations across Chicago in such a beautiful way! We felt very taken care of by Jana and her team and cannot recommend her enough. Not only does she listen to her couples, she also provides confidence and mastery which makes you feel like getting your photos taken should be part of your everyday life. Thank you Jana - we will hold on to these photos dearly forever! Maria and De'Sean

BreeNies Photography, led by Brianna (Bree), offers stunning lifestyle photography services in Northern Illinois. Specializing in capturing unique family and couple moments with a knack for wedding photography.

For three years now Brianna has photographed multiple family and pet sessions for us, and most recently captured the most important day of our lives. She is full of energy and ideas and has great communication. Brianna was there for us every step of the way during the stressful wedding planning process. She’d check in with us and was always a call or text away. We went over every detail of the day so nothing would be missed. It’s so important you choose the right photographer because they will be part of your entire day, by your side, fixing your dress, guiding you where to go, running to get the bouquets, calming you down, and capturing lifelong memories. She truly goes above and beyond, and I couldn’t imagine anyone else by my side on my wedding day. HIGHLY recommend!

Hi, Im Carol DeAnda, born and raised in the southwest suburbs and now living in Lake in the Hills Illinois, with my studio in downtown Algonquin. I have always been the one with the camera since grade school, but it wasn't until high school I realized that this could be my calling. After high school, I attended Harrington College of Design for the Digital photography program and started on my path to becoming a professional photographer. I am a PPA member and CPP (Certified Professional Photographer) and hold the Master Wedding Photographer degree from PPA, as well as a member of The Wedding Equality Alliance.

Carol and her team are ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL when it comes to photography! The work is second-to-none, the professionalism is always consistent, and everyone is always so friendly! :) I have been working alongside Carol at weddings for several years now. As a DJ, it can be tough to communicate with vendors and make sure everyone is always ready to go. This is definitely not the case with Carol. I'm able to find her in a moment's notice and she's ready to capture those precious moments in an instant! Not to mention, her genuine love for her clients. Each and every couple that she works for she gives her all - and that not only shows on the day of an event, but also in her work. Carol and her team edit and produce SOME OF THE BEST PHOTOGRAPHY WORK I HAVE EVER SEEN. Seriously. If you haven't checked out her portfolio, do it now. Carol has an eye for not only capturing your ideas, but also the tiny details that no one else would ever think about. Do yourself a favor a book with Carol and her team.

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!

Lacie was absolutely phenomenal to work with throughout the entire wedding planning process. From the moment we jumped on a phone call to see if they were a right fit, I knew they would be. Her enthusiasm, understanding, outgoing way that she relates to people is an energy that you want on your big day. Our engagement session was incredible, she moves so quickly but efficiently, as to ensure you get all the shots you want, but is very mindful of time. Our wedding day was COMPLETE because of Lacie. In addition to her positive attitude, she helped smooth the timeline of events during the day when exterior factors were impacting the photography, and problem solved so wonderfully on the spot. She stepped in to help in moments that were above and beyond what we hired her for, and for that I am truly grateful. Her photography style is versatile and beautiful, specifically catered to your preference. I can't imagine a better photographer for our wedding and we are so grateful!

The photographers and videographer were very professional. They helped us with posing, organized our getting ready process, and took family pictures. We got absolutely stunning pictures and videos. They captured funny, romantic, candid moments. They took all the shots that we wanted and always kept us on time. The salesperson was very helpful in planning, very helpful with the timeline, and very quick to respond to our emails and text messages. You only get one chance to capture your day, and IG PHOTO VIDEO did a phenomenal job here! The free engagement photoshoot is very cool because we got around 200 pictures, so we can make invitations, save-a-day cards, and even show them during the reception. So, I recommend 2 photographers and 1 or 2 videographers package. A big bonus was how quickly our pictures arrived. It did not take long at all for our USB to arrive with every photo taken (all most 1000) from the day; edits and video files. If you are looking for a cost effective, and high quality company that focuses on their customers, IG PHOTO VIDEO is a great choice.

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.

Hi, there! I am Allie, an internationally published fine art photographer. What's unique to my craft is the focus on small details to tell the complete story of your love. From your candid laughs together to the way your grandmother's eyes well with tears when she sees you walk down the aisle - no detail is too small. We’ve had so many sweet couples from around the world trust us - from our own backyard in MN to the Coasts & even Internationally. I've had the honor of being nominated as the Top 3 Photographers in MN & the experience of photographing over 150 weddings. But each feels completely unique & gives me the joy of butterflies

First, we were immediately drawn to Allie’s timeless, bright, and airy photography style. From the moment that we spoke with Allie during our phone consultation, we felt very comfortable with her and knew she would be the perfect fit as our wedding photographer! Allie photographed our engagement session in downtown Stillwater, a boudoir session (Allie also designed a keepsake boudoir book that I gave to my husband as his wedding gift), and our wedding day. Throughout all of the sessions, Allie was kind, warm, patient, gave us helpful prompts/poses, and guided us every step of the way! Whenever I had questions regarding photography, Allie was very responsive and provided wonderful customer service. She also helped us to create a detailed photography timeline and shot list for the wedding day. On the wedding day, Allie and her second shooter were very professional, prepared, and helped to keep everyone on track, including the bridal party and our families. After the wedding, we received way more photos than we were expecting in our online gallery, which were beautifully edited with her special touch. Allie exceeded our expectations and went above and beyond in all areas. We’ll cherish our photos for years to come and highly recommend Alexandra Robyn Photo & Design!

I don't even have the words to tell y'all how amazing Jayde is. We are SO grateful we reached out to Jayde back in 2022 for our engagement shoot and immediately knew we needed to hire her for our April 2024 wedding. From the very beginning, Jayde was super professional, patient, and on top of it, not to mention SO friendly and warm. She made me and my husband feel so special and comfortable in front of her camera, and our entire bridal party loved her too. She created a seamless timeline for the day that worked so well and she made sure we were on time all day. The photos truly speak for themselves. She has an amazing eye and we are obsessed with her editing style. She surprised us with over 100 (!!!) previews the next morning and they were INCREDIBLE - we were blown away and shocked that she could turn them around that quickly. We are so so so excited to see our full gallery soon. Don't hesitate to book Jayde - she's truly a gem in the Chicago wedding industry. We can't wait to find another reason to book her!

I’m typically shy and not very photogenic, so I was extremely anxious about how our wedding photos would turn out. But after finding LaDonna through a Facebook ad, I immediately knew I wouldn’t have to worry if she was our photographer. She took the time to understand me and helped me find my confidence in front of the camera. By the wedding day, I felt completely at ease and able to focus on the moment with my husband rather than my insecurities in my head. LaDonna and the LT² team captured everything beautifully, balancing candid moments with fine art shots that truly tell our story. The photos are so authentic, and I’ll cherish these memories forever, along with the confidence I gained. Thank you, LaDonna, for an unforgettable experience! 3 7.27.24

First off just like that, the day got a whole lot better now that you are here! But let’s get one thing straight: if you are here, I want you to feel free to be YOU! Being true to who you are makes this process a hell of a lot easier! This is a judgment-free free safe space, and I want you to be as comfortable as humanly possible! Now that’s out the way, I'm Jovan Kiah, specializing in wedding and portrait photography located somewhere in the cornfields of Indiana. But always prepared for a photography adventure, I’m already packed with a suitcase of snacks, my passport, & playlist that spans from Disney musicals to '90s R&B hits.

Jovan was such a pleasure to work with. Me and my partner often find it hard to really connect and feel comfortable in front of the camera yet she made us feel right at home. Would 100% recommend and do plan on working with her again in the future.

I've been capturing weddings since 2009. My style is classic/true to color and my approach is a mix of directive (for posed parts of the day) and candid. Overall, I blend into the background as much as possible when it's appropriate, capturing things as they happen and I help you create portraits with gentle direction and humor where necessary. It is your day. let’s work together to make your photos the best record of your memories they can be! I look forward to working with you!

Awarded Best of Zola
Shawna with LotusFly Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding photography. Her communication style was organized, thoughtful, and attentive - she took detailed notes during our consultations and always followed up promptly. Most importantly, the quality of Shawna's work is fantastic, especially considering her very reasonable rates. She has a true talent for capturing emotional moments and telling the story of the day. On the wedding day itself, Shawna brought a sense of calm and kept everything running smoothly while also fading into the background. She implemented our discussed plans flawlessly and was highly professional yet so easy to work with. We could not be happier with how our photos turned out - Shawna beautifully documented all the special details and joyful memories of our wedding celebration. We enthusiastically recommend LotusFly Photography for any couple's special day!

Hi! I'm Morgan and I am a West Michigan based photographer/photography business. Photography has become my very own love language and making people happy through photos brings me joy. I believe in capturing the authentic moments of every session, making each one and their photos unique to you. I also love to explore new places and am willing to travel - literally anywhere! My resume from over 7 years of experience includes professional dress fluff-er, boutonniere pin-er, giggle inducer, cheerleader, and "oh shit" moment fixer. Photos should be easy, fun, and be as stress free as possible so I use my Type AA personality to make that happen.

Awarded Best of Zola
I have used Morgan for not only our wedding and engagement pictures, but for cap and gown pictures as well in 2021. I cannot recommend her enough for any pictures you are looking to get done, I could talk about her all day! She makes you feel 100% comfortable during your sessions and does all the extra help that she possibly can. She was my right hand on wedding day and took care of so many things, I trusted her fully and she delivered!! She is amazing at communication and has multiple different wedding packages to choose from. She is so easy to get along with and I always felt like I was chatting with a close friend rather than a vendor! Seriously pick her for your sessions, you won’t regret it.

I am Marissa, a photographer, mom, and wife. When I am not behind the camera you can find me venturing around Chicago or the country with my family. We love adventures and I love a delicious plate of nachos… snickers and a fizzy water I AM SURE YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY I DO WHAT I DO AND HOW I DO IT… I have always had a camera in my hand for as long as I can remember… I mean even one of my daughter is named after a camera and the other is named after light.. I bet you can’t guess what their names are. I absolutely love being there to capture all moments in life… especially weddings.

I hired Marissa as our photographer this past June for our Long Beach, California Wedding knowing she was going to capture every moment beautifully. Let me tell you, she delivered so much more. She helped keep forward momentum through the whole night when everything was just a joyful blur I was lost in. When an issue arose with the second photographer, she found a solution before we even knew of the problem. She was such an incredible asset throughout the entire experience. On top of that, our photos came out incredible. She captured the feeling of the wedding. So many touching moments, celebrations, and Justin and I have never looked better. I’m obsessed. I can’t rave enough about how incredible Marissa is. I could not imagine our wedding without her, you shouldn’t either. 100000/100 highly recommend

Sierra was AMAZING to work with! She stuck with us even after we pushed back our wedding by a year and scaled it down! She made that everything was perfect and even helped us record the ceremony on our phone! We are so glad that Sierra was our photographer and would definitely work with her again!
