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.

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.

I found Brenda through a random search on Instagram and I fell in love with her work. I’m so lucky that I found her. From the moment I contacted Brenda she was SO informative. I was impressed at her location guide with SO many places not too far from me. When I met Brenda in person at the photo shoot she was so sweet and passionate about how and where to pose us. Her personality is great! My husband prefers to speak Spanish so I was happy that Brenda was able to explain how to pose us in Spanish. I highly recommended Brenda for any photo shoot you want to have and I will definitely be booking her for future events.

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. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

Alex & Jeremy were the BEST. I cannot believe the number of compliments I received from friends and family who were at the wedding. They were the most professional and interacted with our guests all night long. During the day, we moved through our timeline so smoothly but never felt rushed in my special moments with my husband. We laughed, we cried, we danced- every moment was captured by them and we are so thankful! I was hoping that the weather would cooperate for some golden hour portraits- not only did Jeremy get the most BEAUTIFUL golden hour photos but he grabbed us just as the sun came peaking out of the clouds and got a few photos of us with my veil in the wind. I am OBSESSED with both sets of these portraits. I’ve already recommended OLAS to friends and family who are getting married. They were the best vendor I could have asked for to capture our special day!
