Lux Everlasting 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Hines, IL

I've always been an artist, but my love for photography truly took hold when I photographed my first wedding in 2007. That day, I fell in love with everything about weddings— getting to work with all kinds of people and personalities, capturing every moment and each detail, and even getting to bust a move on the dance floor every now and then.

I've not only gotten to witness Clayton in action, but I've also gotten to work directly alongside him for many wedding days. Not only is Clayton incredibly skilled and creative in his work, but he is just the absolute best to be around. When choosing your photographer or videographer for your wedding day, you want someone who you actually WANT to hang out with all day long on your wedding day. This is honestly the person that you spend the most time with throughout the day, and he will have you smiling from ear to ear the entire time. And then he delivers such an excellent product, I can't recommend Lux Everlasting enough!

Kate Scott Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Hines, IL

My name is Kate Scott Daly, and I can't wait to meet you! I'm a Chicago native and have been a professional photographer for nearly a decade. I am obsessed with capturing the perfect moment that will make you gasp and say "Oh my god, this is amazing!" Being a queer woman, it is so important to me that you feel safe, loved, and beautiful every step of the way. If you're looking for someone you can relax with and just be yourself, you've found me! Let's face it: it can be awkward being in front of a camera. Even I feel nervous sometimes! I understand that anxiety and will do everything I can to make you feel fabulous!

Kate was absolutely AMAZING! Her energy was fantastic and I felt so comfortable chatting with her and following her instructions for photos. My now fiancé could not have chosen anyone better to document such an important moment in our lives. Our photos so far are PERFECT! 1000/10 would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer!

Shutter & Sound 

5.0

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $2,600
  • Serves Hines, IL

Hi! Courtney here (that's me on the left!). Shutter and Sound is the brainchild of renowned wedding videographer Ryan Geldermann. Ryan began his wedding videography career in 2010 in Los Angeles and quickly became recognized as one of the top videographers in the U.S.. After relocating to DC and still receiving countless inquiries from all corners of the country, Ryan decided to recruit and train a few talented friends so he could continue offering the quality wedding videography he’s known for in SoCal and eventually over 10 cities. Shutter and Sound is a very small group of filmmakers dedicated to turning your big day into a work of art.

I recently used Shutter & Sound for my wedding and they were fantastic! The team was super friendly and really skilled at capturing all the important moments without being intrusive. They worked seamlessly with our other vendors which made everything go smoothly. When we got our photos and videos back, we were blown away by the quality and how they managed to capture the feel of our special day perfectly. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch wedding photography and videography!

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Hines, 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
My husband and I reached out to Jana Blue Photography to take photos for our courthouse wedding ceremony and wedding reception. We were absolutely blown away by how amazing our photos turned out. Everything truly exceeded our expectations! From the time we reached out to Jana, she was so responsive and she took the time to truly get to know us. We were able to meet via Zoom before the session to make sure we were on the same page with everything that we had in mind for our photos. Jana did such a great job of capturing all of the small details and special moments of our wedding day. My husband and I are not very photogenic, but Jana made us both feel confident and comfortable throughout the photo session. We highly recommend Jana Blue Photography!!

Awarded Best of Zola
I highly recommend this company to take photos at your wedding! We loved our photographer Percy. He was incredible, and so helpful. He came with several cameras and valued all of our ideas, and when we became stumped he offered ideas for us to try as well. He was very professional, kind, caring, and always on top of the game taking photos. Towards the end of our night he started to put the camera away and brought it back out to catch a few final moments. He was on top of responding to all questions before, during, and after. He took photos of me and my husband before the ceremony and got some wonderful shots (it was a 95 outside wedding so this was much appreciated because we all had some sweat on our faces). But before we got Percy and our booking process with eivans it was super simple, and just an overall great experience.

Pedro was awesome! We were looking for a local (in Chicago) photographer, and found the perfect one. He was super easy to work with, and took amazing pictures. Our initial meeting was via Zoom, which made working it around our schedule super easy. He was extremely responsive to all of my emails, and even was workable with our budget and what we wanted to accomplish with photography. I love his ability to take un-staged, in the moment photos as well as great family photos. He went above and beyond for us, and we are grateful for so many amazing photos to choose from. I would definitely hire him again in a heartbeat.

The photographers were personable and captured unique moments that we did not even know were happening throughout the wedding.

We're in the middle of our 11th Chicago wedding season, and it's been a whirlwind of all things real and fabulous! We are super excited to offer FILM photography services to our awesome couples this year!!

Emma photographed our wedding last October and was fantastic to work with! She was always quick to respond to our questions and was the most organized of all the vendors we worked with. That provided a great deal of peace of mind while planning everything that goes into a wedding, and she even offered advice on how to best schedule the day and maximize our time with photos. She was also super helpful when we had to reschedule due to Covid. We recently received our pictures, and not that we’re biased but her shots at Alice Millar Chapel where we had our ceremony came out better than any others we’ve seen!

We're so glad we went with IG Photo Video - they were great at directing how to pose, where the best photos and lighting were. They were constantly taking pictures and our results are stunning; we couldn't be happier. They even used a drone outdoors for the video.

Working with King & Opal / Mariah was AMAZING! We had a pandemic courthouse wedding but from the photos you'd think we OWNED City Hall. She was so good at bringing out the best of us on a snowy 30 degree day -- especially my wife who is already camera shy -- and capturing the vibe we were looking for. We also had such great conversation along the way, we could have kept the day going purely just to keep talking. People RAVE about our photos when they see them. The only mistake we made was not budgeting more time for photos in our day because there was so much more we could have captured. Definitely add King & Opal to your wedding team.

He was also very understanding about our limited budget and worked resourcefully and creatively. We were originally supposed to have an outdoor wedding but it rained so we had to move it indoors. We were disappointed because we loved the outdoor space at the venue, but Pierro found ways to get beautiful shots inside. He also managed to get some incredible shots outside despite the weather! Overall, it was an amazing time and we are so happy that we went with Pierro. Would definitely recommend his services!

I was that kid enchanted by Disney Princess movies and the idea of "true love". My true love revealed itself through photography. At 8, I grabbed my dad's camera and was hooked, thrilled to show people my world. I started with zoo animals, friends, and siblings, eager to freeze moments in time. As I grew, I learned from local photographers and knew by 17 that photography was my calling. Since then, I’ve captured love in all its forms: couples, new parents, best friends, and the joy of seeing your favorite band live. The world is full of magical firsts, and I'm honored to capture these moments forever.

She was able to capture such special moments that are difficult, like when we were dancing at the reception or hugging our family after the ceremony. Our couple photos were filled with laughs and movement, and she made us look beautiful. Even our photos, even the family and wedding group photos, came out natural and soft. Secondly, Reyna is so kind, understanding, wonderful to work with. We benefited from her experience and guidance, all the while keeping our wishes intact. Hands down, best find of our wedding!

Six years of taking bright, colorful, fun wedding photos in the city has taught me how to deliver a complete gallery of your day told in an artistic, meaningful, and unobtrusive way--because I'm here to document your day, not to direct it. As much as I love taking photos (it's truly my favorite thing in the world!), I believe your wedding is about celebrating all your people being in the same place at the same time + kicking back and enjoying while I make sure all those memories are on camera.

Our wedding photos are nothing short of breathtaking. Alana managed to capture every precious moment with such beauty and clarity, from the quiet, intimate exchanges to the grand, joyful celebrations. Her ability to find and frame the perfect shot is simply remarkable. Beyond her technical skills, Alana was a joy to work with. She was unobtrusive yet always present, ensuring she didn't miss a single important moment. Her warm personality made the entire experience enjoyable, and her dedication to her craft is evident in every photo she took. We are endlessly grateful to Alana for giving us these priceless memories that we will cherish forever.

Hi! I'm so glad you're here. I'm a Chicago-based wedding photographer here to help you tell your love story. Through humor, support and documentary storytelling I'm there to capture your day in an authentic way that reflects who you both are, how you love, and how your community shows up for you. Stylistically, I consider myself a docu-storyteller with a flair for art-forward portraits. With a background in film and digital, I like to incorporate the classic, the dramatic and the real.

Our engagement photography experience was amazing with Layne! Working with her was a seamless and enjoyable process from beginning to end. She skillfully captured our love, resulting in a collection of photos that feel like a slice of life (but the hottest version of that slice). We highly recommend her for anyone seeking a talented and personable photographer to beautifully document this special moment in life.

A Chicago-based wedding and elopement photographer that values genuine connection, authentic emotions, and getting to know my clients on a deep and personal level. I value capturing your moments and memories exactly how they happen, helping you to remember the feelings of intimacy, love, and warmth of marrying your person.

Jayde was a dream to work with from the start. I knew our day would be captured perfectly by her and her team before she even arrived. I can't put into words how warm and friendly she was as soon as she got to our venue. She jumped right in to help with last minute things without hesitation. She kept us on track and made sure those must-have pictures were taken with family and friends which meant the world to us. She went with the flow so easily it was like she was a part of our wedding party.

My name is Alaura, and I am a Chicago-based photographer with a love of great art, true stories, and old-school glamour. I believe in romanticizing everyday life for the joy of it. For me, that means fine teacups on a Wednesday, bouquets for no reason, and a home full of antiques. This also translates to my photography style!

We loved Alaura’s work so so so much. First She was super punctual and professional. She made sure to capture every detail and never stopped taking pictures which to me was awesome. She also had the greatest ideas of photos for us. I consider myself a very shy person and I usually don’t enjoy when the spotlight is on me. But with Alaura it felt super easy and natural and I got to enjoy every part of this process. She just encourage us to be ourselves and the result of that was amazing. Thank you so so so much Alaura for all your beautiful and amazing work !!

*****The best way to reach me is to fill out the inquiry form on my website!***** As a documentary-style photographer, I love to emphasize connection, texture, and authentic emotion. Being a former actor who found a deep love and passion for wedding photography, I'm most drawn to the art of storytelling while creating honest and original work. I strive to make my images fully represent my couples in every way possible. I'm goofy, fun, and always create a deep connection with my couples to ensure their big day is captured with passion + care.

We are so happy we chose to work with Madi for our wedding photos and was one of best decisions we made. We immediately liked her on the first call as she was just easy to talk to and really took an interest in learning about our story. We could tell she had amazing organization skills, and her photography was exactly what we were looking for when it came to our wedding. She was friendly and personable and provided easy communication. She was very flexible, tolerated our need to bring our dogs into both the wedding and the engagement photos, and made us comfortable during the photography process. At our wedding, she was on time, and SO on top of things that I really didn't need to worry about anything getting done. She was on it and coordinated everything so seamlessly. She not only is excellent in her photography skills, but helped so much in establishing our timeline and sorting out what was actually feasible for the day. We really appreciated her expertise. I fully trusted her in the process and knowing that definitely took stress off of us. The best part, is she is just an awesome human!! I highly recommend Madi for your wedding!!

Hi! I'm John, a wedding photographer based in Chicago, IL. I believe deeply that great wedding photography is about creating imagery that is as visually compelling, as it is emotionally significant. Weaving the images together to tell unforgettable stories. My distinct 'documentary meets fine-art' style is a product of my unrelenting commitment to my craft and the complete trust that my couples place in me. I primarily cover weddings in the Chicagoland area, but I will travel to any destination worldwide for those seeking an adventure.

Awarded Best of Zola
John Foley is THE photographer you need for your wedding! From the moment my mom, now husband, and I met him & after seeing his work, and the awards his work has received - we knew we wanted him to document our special day. John was kind, professional, and very organized. He worked so well in the space given to him (it was not big while getting ready) & still the pictures came out beautiful. He knew how to direct people and quickly take portraits. But also was very sneaky and I didnt notice him unless he was directly asking to take a picture. Most importantly - he goes out of his way to make the picture happen. I lost my father 4 months before my wedding & forgot to take a picture I had in mind between the hustle & bustle - he was able to photoshop/create an image that truly looks like he took it. John is your man - TRUST ME

  • Serves Hines, IL

I've picked up a camera just about every day since I fell in love with photography in 2013. Though every shoot holds something unique, it takes a lot to catch me off guard after nearly a decade in business. I pride myself on my ability to quickly connect with my clients, making them feel comfortable, cared for, and confident that they look great. Not every event I’m at goes exactly according to plan and I know how to roll with the punches. Being a helpful and calming presence in the midst of your wedding is second nature to me. Basically, I try to treat people how I want to be treated: with fairness and understanding!

Awarded Best of Zola
Zach was absolutely amazing to work with! We were quick to book with him after clicking so well at our first meeting. We booked an engagement session separate from the wedding booking and were so glad we did! He provided great direction and conversation, helping two socially awkward folks feel comfortable and look like superstars. He was on time and professional for our wedding day, taking care to make sure we covered our photo list and suggesting a few shots that wound up as some of our favorites. He returned our images exactly on schedule and WOW! We were blown away! The photos exactly capture my memory of the wedding day. We would hire Zach again in a heartbeat!

Chicago-based wedding and elopement photographer. I like to make my clients take off their shoes or at least get bare and honest about their love in front of my camera. I love to explore the urban environment with you and make your wedding portraits feel real and true to your life in the city. But I also take any chance I get to drag you to the woods or the beach for some barefoot wedding portraits. Aren’t we so lucky to have those right here in the city!

Essi Photography was an absolute joy to work with on our wedding day. From our first interaction, her communication was intimate, responsive, and understanding of our vision. The quality of her work was creative in the way she could capture small moments throughout the day. Our photos are everything we wanted them to be, documenting all the special moments and candid photos of our loved ones that we will cherish forever. Essi played a huge role in making our wedding day so special, and we cannot recommend her highly enough.

I’m Maura – Chicago based wedding photographer to the stars (that’s you!) and I am so pumped you’ve found my little corner of the interweb. Your wedding day is going to be beyond-your-wildest-dreams amazing and beyond that, totally unique. Sure, you’ll put on “The Dress”, exchange your “I do’s” and probably cry at some point (or at all points!) but your wedding day is 100% completely and utterly yours. I am here to help make this the best day of your life while creating heirloom art that tells your personal love story. I offer planning support and insider advice at every step of the journey to ensure nothin'-but-net on your Big Day.

Maura is truly an artist and we were so lucky to have had her capture our wedding day in September, 2024 at Firehouse Chicago!!!! Our pictures are so special and she captured some really beautiful moments on our wedding day that we know we'll treasure forever. Maura was recommended to us by a friend of a friend, who said "Maura was the single best decision she made for her wedding," and now we couldn't agree more! Maura was amazing and easy to work with from start to finish- she was easy to communicate with leading up to our engagement shoot and our wedding, she provided a super helpful guide after booking, she has the best personality to keep you cool/calm/collected and looking your very best in photos, provided great direction for posing that didn't make us feel to awkward or uncomfortable, she helped us develop a perfect wedding day timeline and kept us on track day-of, and she more than anything rolled with the punches as our day went on! Maura was willing to step in anywhere for anything to ensure we were stress-free and enjoying our day, and that all the little moments were captured. One of the great things about booking Maura is that you don't need to wait months and months for your pictures - she sends a sneak peak the day after engagement shoots and weddings so you've got something to look at and enjoy while you await the rest a few weeks later. The pictures that we got the day after our wedding had us in tears. Not only were they beautiful, she somehow was everywhere all at once, and captured our special moments from every angle. I can't wait to see the rest of our gallery, and I know that we'll treasure these photos forever. I wouldn't hesitate to book Maura again, and I would recommend her to anyone in search of a photographer. She is the best!

Hey there! I’m a weddings and couples photographer based in Chicago, IL with my partner Emily and my rescue dog Daxter. I’m here to document joy and celebrate all the meaningful moments with the kickass people that find me.

Sam is wonderful! Sam was the photographer for our rooftop wedding in Chicago. We had an amazing experience, start to finish. Sam took the time to sit down with us beforehand to discuss the vibe we were going for and any special details for our event. That extra time for us to get to know him was so huge in helping us feel comfortable and relaxed when the time came to get in front of the camera. On the day of our wedding, Sam was awesome with our friends and family—he got every shot that we hoped for and so many more. No joke, TONS of our guests commented to us how fun and friendly he is and we were like, WE KNOW, he's the best! Our photos turned out so, so well. Sam nailed the portraits, he nailed the candids, he nailed the night-time dance floor shots (and it was DARK). He can do it all and he's just a pleasure to work with. I've recommended him to several friends for engagement and wedding photos because I know he'll kill it and give every client 100%. What a guy!

This really helped minimize any stress or delays. Throughout the planning process, Daniela was extremely responsive via email. She answered all my questions promptly and provided helpful suggestions. On the wedding day itself, Daniela blended into the background but still managed to get fantastic shots. She captured all those special candid moments without ever interrupting the flow of events.
