Karly Ellis Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,850
  • Serves North Riverside, IL

Hello HELLO! I am SO glad that you have found your way here. There is nothing I love more than a perfect wedding day. I consider myself a Chicago Wedding Photographer but I am always willing to travel for your next party! To introduce myself, my name is Karly Payne. My maiden name is Ellis hence the Karly Ellis Photography. I got married in July of 2021 so I know how exciting this time is!! I hope you are totally enjoying your time being engaged. Choosing a photographer is one of the hardest parts. You want to make sure you find a photographer where you not only love their work, but your personalities CLICK.

5 stars REALLY just doesn't cover it. Karly was so amazing right from the start. Her communication was clear and timely, her energy and attitude is unmatched. She really felt like a hype girl during both our engagement shoot & on our wedding day. She made everything so insanely seamless and stress free throughout the entire planning process. The timeline she helped us put together was a huge help and not necessarily something I think all photographers do in that much detail. She worked so well with our day of coordinator as well to make sure we were on schedule and everyone was where they were supposed to be. Now onto the actual photos...we had a dimly lit venue so I was worried that the pictures would be dark. Karly and her team absolutely KILLED IT. All the photos are STUNNING. She really takes the time to understand your style as a couple and what you may or may not be comfortable with when it comes to poses/etc. None of it ever felt like awkward, it really felt like you had one of your friends as a photographer. The sneek peaks she gets you are amazing and so fast it was so fun to get to see some photos THE NEXT DAY! We really got so many compliments from our bridal party, venue staff and some of our guests about how great our photographer was and how beautiful the pictures turned out. If you are on the fence about booking Karly, don't be. Book her!!! I really cannot recommend her enough.

Peter Wynn Thompson Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,200
  • Serves North Riverside, IL

I began my career as a photojournalist working for newspapers and magazines documenting current events, sports and pop culture. Creating meaningful images is at the heart of being a photojournalist and it's this mentality that I bring to my wedding photography. I work to create timeless images that truly tell the story of one of the most important days of your life.

From day one, Peter made us feel relaxed and it was so easy working with him. The engagement photos session was so much fun, he had great ideas for photos, and we laughed a lot. Besides getting great photos from this session, it allowed us to get to know Peter more (and vice versa) and feel more comfortable together before the wedding. We couldn't wait for the wedding day to hang out more! Peter and his team took amazing photos on our wedding day and are a joy to be around. They truly added so much to our entire wedding day team. We miss working with Peter on a daily basis - it was such a pleasure! I highly recommend Peter for your wedding!

Studio This Is 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Serves North Riverside, IL

We are a close-knit family of photographers, filmmakers, and designers with a kindred passion for storytelling. Our vision for a collective studio was dreamed up to answer the problem of frustrated brides and grooms waiting ages to see their photos or just get an email back and the problem of artists burned out on business-running because it’s impossible to do it all.

Chad, Sabrina, and the whole team at Studio This Is are nothing short of OUTSTANDING to work with! We have been completely obsessed with them, from the planning process to our engagement shoot to the wedding day to the photos themselves. Chad took the time to listen to our vision and bring it to life even more beautifully than we ever could have imagined. He was also incredibly organized and communicative, which meant a lot to someone as type A as me. :) The whole crew on the day of our wedding was extremely professional and kind, with a meticulous eye for details. And the photos - we are absolutely speechless! I could not recommend Studio This Is more!

We could not have been happier with the services and product we received! We picked Nora as our photographer as it seemed like she was great at using natural lighting and did a good job with capturing photos that weren’t posed. We were not disappointed! Nora made the process as easy as humanly possible and very comfortable. She was able to read us easily and could tell when the group was getting restless and even could tell if I wanted certain photos without me saying. Nora was the only photographer but managed to capture all the photos we could have hoped for. The ceremony photos were beautiful but the reception photos perfectly captured the night. The quality of the photos when we got them was spectacular. Additionally, the entirety of the photos were sent to us within just over 4 weeks despite the fact that they had 8 weeks. Lastly, we booked the DJ through essence as well (spinning’ discs) and Nora and the dj worked together great which made it that much easier. If you’re considering essence, do it - you will not regret!

The quality of their work was incredible - Luz made me and my family look so photogenic, even my mom loved the photos! She was so patient with my family's inability to follow direction and accommodated my request to get great shots without having to pull me away from the party. Luz had a great attitude, made light of the chaos, and worked within my budget rather than trying to convince me to add more time. I absolutely loved working with her and am so grateful for the beautiful photos that captured our special day.

I didn’t get into the wedding industry because I was the little girl dreaming of my wedding day. I love story-telling, I love love, and I love people who want to laugh and have a great time because they realize that life is short and beautiful. Wedding photography is all of those things at once; every time I go to work it’s the best day of someone’s life. How cool is that?

Oh my GAWWWD! AJ is the BEST. Like seriously - hire her right this second! I cannot emphasize enough how grateful I am for the way that she shows up as a person and as a photographer. I am the more extroverted of my partnership and AJ did an incredible job making my partner feel at ease during our engagement shoot and our first look. She knows exactly what to say to get a nice photo that doesn’t read like “I’m being forced to take pictures”. From Day 1 (honestly, even before we hired AJ), we knew what to expect. She is communicative and easy to get a hold of. After a brief “get to know you” session, she builds three personalized packages based on what you’re looking for (and the names of each package are the best part…just you wait). Engagement Shoot: Our engagement shoot was so fun! AJ gave us a few suggestions and we ended up taking photos in and near the Montrose Bird Sanctuary. Talk about a GORGEOUS spot for photos. AJ is a great conversation maker and makes those who are less comfortable taking photos feel at ease. Her direction during our session made for spectacular photos (which we used for our save the dates and got lots of compliments on). We got sneak peeks within a day or two and the full gallery was high quality. Wedding Day: The package we selected was for 10 hours of service. AJ showed up early to where I was getting ready. Her second shooter was with my partner. Both of them were lovely during the day and brought positive, calm vibes for the duration of the day. The combination of posed and candid “getting ready” shots were well balanced. Our first look was at Garfield Park Conservatory and she and her second shooter did a great job communicating with each other so that my partner and I didn’t accidentally cross paths until it was “go time”. AJ is a great people wrangler - she made sure that our shots at Garfield Park were just us and communicated with other guests to make these shots happen. When we got to our venue, AJ and her second shooter got through our family portraits with haste so that my partner and I could relax before our ceremony. I was blown away by our sneak peeks, which we got several days after our wedding. Hiring AJ will be one of the best decisions you make for your big day.
