John Foley Photography

  • Photographer

  • Serves Northfield, IL

Hi! I'm John, a wedding photographer based in Chicago, IL. I believe deeply that great wedding photography is about creating imagery that is as visually compelling, as it is emotionally significant. Weaving the images together to tell unforgettable stories. My distinct 'documentary meets fine-art' style is a product of my unrelenting commitment to my craft and the complete trust that my couples place in me. I primarily cover weddings in the Chicagoland area, but I will travel to any destination worldwide for those seeking an adventure.

John is one of the most talent photographers I know. He truly captures the moment to make it a memory you will never forget. John’s professionalism is top notch and he's super laid back and easy to work with. He laid out an itinerary for us and we were able to adjust for more or less time if we wanted, he helped make the day go perfect and stay on schedule. He has an eye like no other and I would recommend him to anyone and everyone. Everyone who has seen our photos are just in awe. John, keep doing what you are doing! You are doing great!!

Alana Lindenfeld Photography

  • Photographer

  • Serves Northfield, IL

Six years of taking bright, colorful, fun wedding photos in the city has taught me how to deliver a complete gallery of your day told in an artistic, meaningful, and unobtrusive way--because I'm here to document your day, not to direct it. As much as I love taking photos (it's truly my favorite thing in the world!), I believe your wedding is about celebrating all your people being in the same place at the same time + kicking back and enjoying while I make sure all those memories are on camera.

Awarded Best of Zola
Alana did our engagement pictures on location in Joshua Tree. She’s super friendly and communicates very quickly and efficiently with her clients. She did an amazing job getting lots of natural candida and a fantastic job editing them! We got the pictures in a reasonable time frame, and are so happy to have these as memories. Definitely recommend her!!

I’m a wife and Jesus lover who is dedicated to serving and loving my clients well, by giving them a unique experience. I offer custom wedding packages that are designed with my couple in mind. I also provide custom timeline creations, and help with anything (even non-photo related)! By the time my couple gets their wedding images, they’ve not only gained a photographer that will produce great images, they’ve gained a friend - and to me, that’s priceless.

Awarded Best of Zola
Sierra was AMAZING. From the moment we met her at our consult, we knew she was the one. She was so professional, and would always check in with me to make sure I was doing okay and wasn’t freaking out too much! On the day of my wedding, she was there early, and even helped with getting my dress ready, and she helped calm my nerves by just sitting with me and listening to me vent lol. Her photos are amazing, but honestly the experience of working with her was one of the best I’ve ever experienced. I didn’t just gain a forever photographer, I gained a new friend! Definitely hire her - you won’t be disappointed!

Essi Photography

  • Photographer
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Northfield, IL

Chicago-based wedding and elopement photographer. I like to make my clients take off their shoes or at least get bare and honest about their love in front of my camera. I love to explore the urban environment with you and make your wedding portraits feel real and true to your life in the city. But I also take any chance I get to drag you to the woods or the beach for some barefoot wedding portraits. Aren’t we so lucky to have those right here in the city!

Awarded Best of Zola
Essi was just phenomenal to work with. You can tell she is very passionate and serious about what she does & it definitely displayed in her work. The entire process from start to finish was seamless. Essi met with my fiance & I twice, once when we first inquired about photography for our wedding and again a month before our big day. A lot of photography agencies and freelancers will just hop on a call or zoom to meet with you, but not Essi. She made it a point to meet with us & get to know us in person. Having never serviced a middle eastern style wedding, she absolutely crushed it! She was so attentive and took her time with us; never rushed us or made us feel like we were just another booking. She got to know us on a personal level and took interest in who we were as a couple. As someone who lost a large deposit to a previous photography agency who outsourced knockoff photographers, I am so incredibly happy I stumbled upon Essi. Her work is simply unmatched, professional and so so sooo beautiful. You will not regret booking with Essi.

Sam was awesome & SO PROFESSIONAL. My husband and I had been looking for a DJ since we first got engaged and were not too pleased with other encounters we had. When we reached out to Sam we were able to see him/speak to him via Zoom to hash out the details of our wedding and what we were looking for. He allowed us to prepay for our event, and he continuously checked in with us & responded to any questions we had in between. When my stepson was having a bit of a moment(due to not doing well in large crowds), Sam allowed us to sit him near the DJ booth (as he loves the equipment) - supervised by his grandfather- until he was ready to join the party. Our families enjoyed the music, and were even allowed to request a few specific songs for special traditions. He was on time, communicative, professional, & flexible- he made our night special & if we had a chance to redo it- we’d sign on with him again!!! Thank you soooo much Sam!!!!!!

  • Serves Northfield, IL

We were born from lessons learned by tackling the most important wedding to date; my own. A planner to my core, I never considered the need for assistance when planning and executing my wedding. And while I threw a truly great party, it came at the expense of me enjoying my own wedding. I took away from the experience the hard truth that just because I could, didn’t mean I should, and have turned that into something that I truly love; watching other couples bask in their moment, stress-free. We offer a variety of wedding and honeymoon services with the simple mission of creating beautiful, unique events that feel as good as they look.

Awarded Best of Zola
After some careful contemplating, I decided to hire a Day-of Coordinator for my wedding day. I was nervous to give up the reins after all of the pre-planning work I did. I'm (admittedly) a control freak and really wanted our big day to go as well as possible and stay within budget. It's also not easy for me to ask for help. A friend recommended Bisoux Event Co. to help me and Lisa was my Coordinator. She was kind, professional and handled many moving parts with aplomb and poise. After speaking with her for the first time, I knew she was exactly what I needed so I could relax, give my phone to my MOH and enjoy the day. When things had to change on the fly, (they will, they always do) she made audible decisions that were thoughtful and practical. If you are a control freak like me, do yourself a favor and hire Bisoux for your big day- You'll be grateful for the help!

Relish catered my wedding and to be honest, they were amazing! They did not need my support at all the day of and were very independent which is super important since my stress levels were already high! The food was amazing.. I had nothing but amazing feedback! Literally people were messaging me days later asking who catered! Only thing negative is I ordered white lasagna thinking red sauce and white dress disaster and we were served regular lasagna. Not a huge deal just not what I was expecting. Besides that literally 10/10 thank you so much Relish for being a part of our special day!

I started coordinating/event planning in 2017 by creating, managing, and executing my own nurses brunch which started as a 12 person event and now has grown to hosting over 150 attendees annually. Over the last 3 years I've had the pleasure to plan, coordinate, and execute multiple weddings. What started as a personal hobby has transitioned into a business, and It has been a pleasure to be able to serve couples on their big day.

Following our engagement, my husband and I were eager to tie the knot within a few months but wished to sidestep the typical stresses associated with wedding planning. Enter Kylie, whose invaluable assistance allowed us to relish our brief engagement period while navigating a seamless and stress-free planning process. Guiding everyone through the where and when, meticulously overseeing everything from decorations to music and food, Kylie granted us the luxury of merely showing up and savoring the results of her hard work with our nearest and dearest friends and family. Her meticulous attention to detail, organization, exceptional communication skills, and boundless creativity played pivotal roles in crafting a smooth, intimate day that will forever be etched in our memories. Moreover, Kylie's warm and personable nature put both my husband and me, as well as all our wedding attendees, at ease. Thanks to Kylie's unwavering dedication, our wedding day surpassed perfection and exceeded our wildest expectations. We are profoundly grateful for her assistance, and if given the chance to relive the experience, we would choose her a thousand times over!

Kate Scott Photography

  • Serves Northfield, IL

My name is Kate Scott Daly, and I can't wait to meet you! I'm a Chicago native and have been a professional photographer for nearly a decade. I am obsessed with capturing the perfect moment that will make you gasp and say "Oh my god, this is amazing!" Being a queer woman, it is so important to me that you feel safe, loved, and beautiful every step of the way. If you're looking for someone you can relax with and just be yourself, you've found me! Let's face it: it can be awkward being in front of a camera. Even I feel nervous sometimes! I understand that anxiety and will do everything I can to make you feel fabulous!

My fiancée and I were photographed for our proposal/engagement by Kate and we loved her work! I found Kate on Zola and loved her portfolio. The diverse clientele and the way Kate was able to capture everyone so beautifully was a huge driver in choosing her to photograph us. When I reached out to Kate to get started with planning, I was blown away by her thoroughness, responsiveness, and clarity. She walked me through her pricing, what to expect, and even offered to help with light planning for the surprise proposal. I was super nervous but Kate was so kind and helped put me completely at ease. The day of the proposal (she said yes btw), Kate stayed in contact with me and gave me updates. Our original spot was busy, then free, then busy again lol. Kate arrived early and was scoping out the location, which helped so much! My fiancée and I don’t take a lot of photos, so I was a little worried about how our session would go. I had nothing to worry about! Kate’s energy was intoxicating in the best way! We felt so comfortable when taking photos. Kate had planned out poses and gave us tips the entire time. 10/10 would recommend her! The photos turned out amazing too! Kate gave us a few preview photos a few days later and we loved them. We still have a few more photos that Kate is finishing editing, but we’re so confident that they’ll be as fantastic as the previews. Overall, we really enjoyed our time with Kate and would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer!

I’m a wedding photographer who specializes in photojournalistic style. I love capturing candies as well styled portrait shoots with the bride and groom, bride and bride, as well as groom and groom. I’m queer friendly too! Everyone is welcome.

Kim was an absolute delight to work with. She was very attentive and came with so many ideas on how to make our wedding photos special for us. She came a few days before to check out the church where we would be having our photos done which shows me that she takes her job very serious. Kim is very easy to work with she made it very relaxed and easy to take photos with her. I am someone who doesn’t like attention on me and has social anxiety and she helped me to feel relaxed while taking the photos. She didn’t just take beautiful photos for us but she made the experience fun and memorable for us as well. I would definitely recommend Kim for photos. She also had our photos ready for us earlier than expected. Would definitely work with her again! Thank you Kim for capturing such beautiful photos and helping make our special day a day to remember.

Chef Cuellar and his entire team are incredible. From the first call, it was obvious that he and his team cared about making our wedding the magical day we had always dreamed about. Even though we lived in Philadelphia and needed to come to a tasting on the weekend, they made it work with their schedule and completely blew us away with the menu they prepared based on our first few meetings. Incredibly professional but also warm, inviting, and easy to talk to and express ourselves around. When it came to the big day, he and his team were ready to go despite a few last-minute curveballs. Our guests thought the food was amazing and continued talking about it well after the wedding ended. We cannot recommend enough Chef Cuellar and his team for weddings. They are candid about what they can do and what it might take to make it happen! For background, we had a wedding of about 70-80 and did a Mediterranean buffet style for the main course with a charcuterie board during the cocktail hour. For dessert, they prepared churros as well as multiple types of gelato.
