From the moment we first spoke with cmyphotography101, we knew we had found the perfect photographers for our wedding day. Their communication style was personable, cheery, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly impressive - their vintage-inspired style captured the intimate and meaningful moments of our celebration in a way that felt both timeless and deeply personal. cmyphotography101's positive attitude and kind nature shone through, not only in the stunning photos, but also in how they interacted with us and our guests during the portrait sessions.

Dave Moore Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,200
  • Serves Irvington, IL

Hang around a photographer long enough, and the phrase “rule of thirds” will probably come up. The idea is to keep your subject away from the center of the frame to create more visual interest, and in a way, that’s how I approach all my photo sessions: keeping things ever so left of center. If you need a photographer who can capture the warmth and love (or kooky energy!) of your family, or who’s willing to climb or crawl on and over just about anything to capture that perfect shot on your wedding day, or who can create engagement photos that show you being swept off your feet and into the blue sky above, I’m happy to oblige.

To say just a few words about Dave: You won’t find a gentler soul than this guy. From engagement to reception, he’s there to snag the serious and the silly. He has a way of making the camera shy feel right at home, while his quirky anecdotes will keep the extroverts engaged. At our reception, Dave was our anchor. He navigates events with ease, coordinating with other vendors in ways we didn’t expect. I am forever grateful that we made the choice to work with Dave, and would recommend him with enthusiasm to anyone seeking a wedding photographer!

K.M. Goodson Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with on our wedding day. From the very beginning, their communication style was relatable, relaxing, and fun - it felt like we were working with a close friend rather than a vendor. On the day of, the photographer not only captured every beautiful detail with incredible skill, but also went above and beyond to ensure I was taken care of. They checked in with me throughout the day to make sure I was happy, fed, and on schedule. It was like having a best friend there to make sure my wedding day went exactly as planned.

I have been a wedding photographer since 2011 & love being a part of my couple's lives. I enjoy getting to know clients on a personal level so I can really document who they are as people & as a couple. I am one of those people who rarely meets a stranger & love becoming friends with new people wherever I go. On a personal level, I have the cutest mini Aussie who is my pride & joy! I am close with my family & have some of the most wonderful friends.

Brooke did an absolutely amazing job! We did an engagement photoshoot with her months before our wedding date and it was very helpful in getting to know each other and how we work together, made the wedding day so much smoother! It is very obvious she has lots of experience in the wedding industry and is very professional. She did a great job at coming up with different poses and some of her ideas became my favorite photos. Wedding are stressful enough, but I never had to worry about my photos because I knew Brooke had it handled! Definitely recommend.

You deserve a day filled with laughter and joy, surrounded by the people you love most and vendors who feel more like friends. When you hire Tony Mellinger, not only do you get a photographer who’s committed to capturing your day in a way that’s uniquely you. You also get a friend.

We had complete trust in Tony to choose and surprise us on the final location the day of - and Tony did not disappoint! Tony discovered a mountain top view that only locals really knew about. To say he went above and beyond is an understatement. The day of the wedding he both of us feel so at home and comfortable with everything that was going on that it all just felt easy, natural and effortless. Tony single handedly provided us with an unforgettable day, an amazing wedding video, quality photos that were ready in a timely manner.

Awarded Best of Zola
Courtney is by far my favorite wedding photographer in the midwest region. She is the full package - low-key, relaxing to be around, friendly, and a brilliant creative genius. :) If you create the day, she is there to capture it in all of its glory: head down, behind the lens, sneaking all of those behind-the-scenes- moments you will hold dear. She is a skilled portrait photographer but doesn't forget the details. She is caring to her clients and fellow vendors. By the end of the day, you'll be asking for her number so you can go out for drinks next week. She is like the friend you've always known, yet she is able to keep her professionalism high all day. When you get your photos delivered... you'll know exactly what I mean! Hire her!!

Cassidy Parker Smith 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Irvington, IL

I know it is the most incredible experience having everyone you love together in one place to celebrate you. Aside from the births of my babies, my wedding was the best day ever. But being a mom has made me appreciate photography the most — I know how fleeting time is and how important it is to have printed memories of those you love dearly. Tomorrow isn’t promised and I want to document you with your favorite people as they are today.

I can't say enough good things about Cassidy. I looked through over 100 photographer websites and portfolios and was drawn to Cassidy's photography immediately. I could tell that her shots were thoughtful and full of intention and her editing style was vivid and moody yet still very light which I really liked. I showed my partner my top picks and he was also immediately drawn to Cassidy's photos, too, so even though she was a little out of our price range, we thought she would be worth it and she absolutely was! She was flexible with our budget, which we really appreciated. Cassidy was communicative, reliable and clearly experienced. She majored in photography in college which was a big plus for us. She kept us on schedule, worked really well with our videographer and took really beautiful pictures of our wedding. During the wedding, I hardly noticed she was there, which made for some really sweet, candid photos. She captured my husband and I stealing glances and all the idiosyncrasies of our guests. She also got really great detail shots of the decor and our venue. I love looking through our gallery and can't wait to hang up some of our wedding photos. Overall, Cassidy was an absolute gem to work with and is honestly just a really awesome human being. My husband and I would highly recommend her to anyone!

Hi, I'm Jaimie, a documentary-style photographer who captures your wedding day's real, unscripted moments. Planning your wedding should be a joy, not a stress. I work closely with each couple to create a timeline that lets you truly enjoy the day. My approach is simple: document genuine joy, not manufacture moments. I capture each wedding as a series of real, heartfelt experiences so that when you look back, you remember the fun + love, not the stress or staged prompts. I strive to create images that are not just seen but felt. I want your wedding photos to bring back nothing but happy memories of a day filled with celebration.

Jaimie was great to work with for our wedding! She is chill and friendly, putting us and our family at ease for all the photos. She helps guide you with different scenery and poses for photos but also encourages you to be yourself, which helps capture really natural moments. She was professional, on time, and even stayed late to get some extra pictures. It has been a great experience working with her and her style of photography! Her work is beautiful and like art!

Hi, I’m Bryson! A St. Louis, Missouri + Southern Illinois-based wedding, engagement, and portrait photographer and filmmaker for those couples who see the world with wide-eyed amazement, who value the artful nature of their unique stories, and who are always up for a little something new.

Bryson and his team were a joy to work with for our wedding photography. They showed up early and were ready to go, helping make the day run smoothly. Bryson has a knack for putting people at ease while bringing out their best smiles. He called my family and friends by their nicknames, making it feel lighthearted. The photos captured the emotion and special moments without feeling overly posed or cookie-cutter. Bryson went above and beyond to scout locations ahead of time and was open to suggestions that highlighted what made our wedding unique to us as a couple. The final album I have no doubt will tell the story of our wedding day in a creative, meaningful way that we will treasure.

We "Double Dog Dare" you to find a photographer that is more fun than us. Finding a cheap photographer is easy. Finding a great photographer is a little bit harder. Finding an awesome photographer that works within your budget but still gets you the $10K shot of the day... now that's hard. We want you to shop around and certainly take the time to talk to multiple photographers. We may not be the one and that's OK. After the party's over, the food is forgotten, the flower's fade, and the dress is cleaned and stored, you have your pictures. Why chance a $500 photographer with your memories?

I've been in the DJ business for over 25 years, and my DJ company Porta Party DJs has worked thousands of weddings. Mirage Photo consistently stands out head and shoulders above all other photography companies for three simple reasons: 1. They are fun 2. They are professional 3. They provide an incredible product. Many photographers are notorious for being too pushy/controlling when trying to get photos done. Although there sometimes can be a need for that, Mirage Photo earns the respect of their clients (and wedding party) up front so there's no need for lots of drama and stress. Their easy-going attitude and fun demeanor are why we always recommend Mirage Photo any and all of our clients who are looking for a professional photographer. If they are available and within your budget, you need to book them ASAP.
