We absolutely loved Joe & Ashley!!! They did both our engagement and wedding photos/videography. I truly cannot say enough good things about them. We never felt awkward with them, they directed us and our bridal party effortlessly. They were SO fun and friendly. They made our day flow smoothly and effortlessly.

I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

My husband and I were from out of town and hired Sean to photograph us at a Christmas gala at the place we got married. He was accommodating to last minute changes to make the most of the session and even went above and beyond to make it happen. Upon first impression, he was upbeat and had a vision. We were outside in sub 30 degree weather with fading evening light as well as low light inside a building and he was up for the challenge. We ended up with beautiful images in less than ideal conditions and that is what makes a great photographer. Sean has a sense of humor and an eye for that perfect photograph. He was fun to work with and his heart for people and creativity shows through. Thank you Sean for capturing this time in our lives.

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!

Awarded Best of Zola
PictureMeThisByLacie was one of the best decisions we made throughout the wedding process. Lacie was amazing to work with the entire time. She was easy to communicate with and kept us updated on our photo timelines, not to mention all of our photos turned about AMAZING. Our package included an engagement session and Lacie worked out a weekend she was already in Chicago to accommodate us. Leading up to our session, we had issues with controlled fires and protests in our preferred location, but Lacie found us a spot that blew my expectations for photos out of the water. She gave us a sneak peak and also got our pictures back to us super quick. On our big day, Lacie and Tim(her husband/second photographer) were the best to work with. They made us feel comfortable and captured our day better than we could have imagined. As soon as they got there, they got straight to work. Lacie got all the details and getting ready photos that I will cherish forever. Things were running behind the day of and they let us add on an hour to our contract the day of and pay at a later date. This ensured that we got dance floor photos and it was so worth it! Specifically getting pictures of my husband's grandmother in her 80s dancing with all her grandkids. We received a sneak peak very quickly and our whole (massive) gallery less than 2 months after the wedding. For as many photos as we got, this was a crazy quick turn around. Overall, PictureMeThisByLacie captured our day better than we could have ever imagined, we could not recommend them more!

Hello there!! I'm Juliette, and I've been wedding photographer and videographer for around seven years. I specialize in nostalgic and cinematic photo and video, and mix in-the-moment candids with editorial portraits (usually with flash photos!) Whether you’re having a wild wedding weekend, a thoughtful woodsy elopement or an elegant celebration at an estate, I'm here for it.

Awarded Best of Zola
Photography and videography were one of the most important vendors to me while planning my wedding. Booking with Juliette was one of the best decisions I made about my wedding (coming from a very lucky bride who had a 10/10 perfect wedding day). She is so incredibly talented and her work is both professional in quality and personally unique in style. Working with her and her husband Teddy was so comfortable and felt like I was talking to old friends every time we’d check in by FaceTime or worked together in person. She worked with me even with my busy work schedule and is the best for setting up packages that highlight everything you want on your big day and doesn’t force/pressure the things you don’t feel you need/want. She also helps to plan out a reasonable payment plan schedule that made making payments so much less stressful over several months leading up to the wedding. I am so thankful to her for making this part of my wedding less stressful and capturing so many beautiful moments. I could write a book with all the nice things I have to say, highly recommend for any/all occasions! The absolute best!
