Roman Lorek Photography 

5.0

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

I am a bilingual (Polish, English) Chicago & NWI based wedding photographer who enjoys traveling and music. I like to take a documentary approach to photography. Keeping posing to a minimum and capturing natural moments of your big day. I am a perfect photographer for a couple that believes the natural moments mean more than posed photographs.

Awarded Best of Zola
Roman Lorek Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, they were great communicators - open, honest, and responsive to all of our questions and requests. Their work is truly high quality, with an artistic and beautiful style that captured all the special moments of our day. They went above and beyond, making thoughtful suggestions and recommendations that helped make our wedding day even more perfect. Roman and Anastasia were friendly, professional, and made the entire photography experience easy and stress-free. They also did a "family" engagement shoot ahead of our wedding, which was the most fun I had ever had taking photos. Could not have been a better experience all-around! We would highly recommend Roman Lorek Photography to any couple looking for a talented and dedicated wedding photography team.

Zach Caddy Photography 

5.0

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

A cinematic eye. --- A bleeding heart. --- An inclusive spirit. --- 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 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. 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 is a talented and creative photographer, with the most calming but also can do attitude. I appreciated that Zach communicated openly about his approach and also took the time to understand our vision. My only regret is not booking him for even more hours! Zach also did our engagement shoot a few weeks before the wedding and kindly turned around our photos in a matter of days so I could post before our big day. (What a doll!) We are still receiving compliments everyday from friends and family and coworkers regarding the wedding photos. We are beyond grateful for this beautiful capture of our memories and we owe it all to Zach.

Michelle Zapanta Photography

Lockport, IL
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,800

What started out as a hobby, evolved into a great passion. With a camera on hand for every event, I spent my lunch money as a young kid developing films at the photo store. I became so fond of capturing as many organic moments as I can in photographs and fell in love with the idea of telling people's stories in images rather than words. I started venturing into professional photography right after my own wedding to my high school sweetheart, Erick, which was back in 2014. I LOVE everything wedding-related. My favorite to photographs are the wedding details, the bride and groom portraits and anything that will make me either cry or laugh!

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Michelle was the best choice my wife and I made during our wedding preparations. Her photos are stunning. True professionalism, skill, and a keen eye for capturing those happy moments. But best of all, she has a warm personality which made working with her feel easy. She was able to photograph our Indian wedding with such class, that these memories will remain with us forever.

Hello there! My name is Alana. I am a wedding photographer based in the Chicagoland area who ranges from lovely backyard weddings in the suburbs, to swanky celebrations in the city, to flying off to stunning elopements around the world. Weddings with me include tons of laughter, lots of support in planning and organizing, and photos so vivid that your memories jump out of the frame. (It may also include us both happy crying together on the big day) I make the whole process as easy and fun as possible, and would be absolutely honored to take on the role of turning your memories into artwork!

Awarded Best of Zola
Alana was fantastic to work with! She is super easy to communicate with and was very understanding when my husband’s work schedule made taking our engagement photos a challenge. Skip forward half a year and our wedding pictures are absolutely amazing! She edits with such a vivid and lively style that is not typical of wedding photographers and we could not be happier with how they came out. She also delivered early which was completely unnecessary but much appreciated!

Hey there! If we’re going to be friends, you should know that I'm goofy, adventurous, a shameless cat mom, and I don’t like chocolate (weird right?!). I graduated from Bradley University in 2018 and launched Moira Nolan Photography, specializing in wedding and engagement photography in 2019. Now here I am, a capturer of laughs, kisses, & all things love and it brings me so much joy! I mainly serve the Chicago and the Chicago Suburbs but I love to travel! Especially since it is a goal of mine to visit all 50 states.

Awarded Best of Zola
I can't even begin to describe how absolutely amazing and wonderful our experience was with Moira! When we first contacted Moira she called us to go over our questions, and her services, it was so nice to be able to have a conversation about what we wanted and what she would provide! In the time leading up to our engagement shoot, I had changed my mind on location multiple times and Moira was extremely understanding and helped my vision come to life! We took our engagement pictures at the public library where I met my (now) husband and even took some pictures in the rain at our favorite park! Moira worked thru the downpour and got some AMAZING shots! Leading up to our wedding we met with Moira to go over timeline and she helped to make sure we would have enough time allocated for everything we wanted. On our wedding day Moira was punctual and extremely amazing to work with! We had to move some things around timeline wise and it all worked out beautifully. Our pictures are absolutely INCREDIBLE. I'm obsessed with them and she captured our day perfectly. I hope this review helps with your decision to pick your photographer, and I would HIGHLY recommend working with Moira, she is the best of the best!

From the moment we connected with this amazing duo, we knew it was meant to be. Nicole and Michael showed us the perfect amount of professionalism mixed with the ability to be our friends (even though we did not know each other at all), which made all the difference. We felt extremely comfortable with them during all of the steps leading up to the wedding, which in turn, made our actual wedding day that much more enjoyable. They knew we had a "vision" for our big day that we did not want to compromise, and they lived up to it in ways we could not imagine. It's almost been a year since we said "til death do us part" and we are STILL getting compliments on all of the pictures and the video! I can say that we will be forever grateful to have such an amazing day captured by the best there is.

Hey love, I’m Kara - your Nikon-loving, sunset-obsessed photographer and wedding cheerleader! When my sister got engaged in 2010 and I invested in my first camera, I started to experience the joy of documenting love stories as I photographed her engagement session - my very first session. From there, things grew quickly and now my husband and I photograph 20+ weddings a year together! When I’m not photographing weddings throughout Chicagoland, you can find me snuggling our puppies Georgie + Jett, lovin’ on my family, spoiling the littles in our life as Auntie Kara, gardening in our backyard, and exploring breweries with my husband Kyle.

Kara is one of our favorite photographers to work with, and we have nothing but great things to say about her work!

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process.

We loved how all of the photos showed everyone’s genuine emotions of the day so well!

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!

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
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!
