KAS Photography

  • Serves Palatine, IL

I love being able to capture those endearing, authentic laughs, and just “in the moment” moments. I believe photos are a timeless way to relive that special moment. Memories are one of the most beautiful things we as humans have, so why not have that memory frozen in time where you can physically see it!

Karla did my business promo shoot, in which was a very spontaneous decision on my behalf.. being that I am pretty awkward and do not really enjoy “modeling”. I was super awkward the whole shoot but Karla made me feel very comfortable and made me laugh the whole time. It honestly didn’t even feel unnatural at all as she captured my most genuine moments. She really helped me with “easing up” since I tend to get stiff and just as awkward as can be. She was extremely professional, friendly, funny, caring and patient! She managed to capture my best angles in which surprised me because my whole life I always get pictures taken of me and my lovely best friend AKA my double chin. I would highly suggest her to anyone looking for a photographer for any and every occasion possible. She comes off as a friend and not a stranger at all, which is why I’m looking forward to booking any future shoots I plan to take and she will also be the only person I am confident in recommending to others! SHE IS THE BEST.

RoGina Montgomery Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Palatine, IL

With every wedding, I strive to create images that are both timeless and modern, capturing the essence of each couple's unique love story. My approach is candid and unobtrusive, allowing me to capture those genuine, heartfelt moments that often go unnoticed. I believe that a wedding is not just a celebration of a couple's love, but also a celebration of the love that surrounds them.

I couldn’t be more happier and satisfied with the level of professionalism and quality photography RoGina has to offer. Of course everything had to be perfect for the big wedding day and she absolutely helped my dream come true. I can’t wait to have her again for family photos soon! She’s truly so kind & gifted.

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!

Greetings! I’m Phil, a passionate and creative photographer based in the vibrant city of Chicago. With a lens as my canvas, I specialize in capturing the essence of moments that tell unique stories. From the picturesque lakeside to the heart of the city, I specialize in crafting timeless engagement and wedding photos that reflect the love and joy of couples saying, "will you marry me?" and "I do" in Chicago. Chicago’s skyline is a masterpiece, and I take pride in capturing its grandeur.

Kayla Lupean Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Palatine, IL for additional fees

Hi! I'm Kayla, owner of Kayla Lupean Photography. I have been photographing weddings since 2009 and have been full time with my business since 2013. I have photographed over 500 weddings since beginning my business and am passionate about capturing all of the big and small moments that happen during a wedding day to create the first heirloom of your love, your friends and your family for your marriage and life together! For portraits I focus on creating classic images that stand the test of time and that showcase your joy and love. For the wedding day I focus on capturing authentic moments and interactions between you and the ones you love.

We had the pleasure of working with Kayla for our Engagement session and Wedding Day. Kayla was lovely and the images she captured are stunning! Kayla has excellent expertise and worked beautifully with our wedding planner to capture our day. Kayla made excellent suggestions, encouraging me to take “getting ready” pictures in my childhood home instead of the church’s dimly-lit bridal area. These are some of my most favorite pictures of the day! Kayla also knows how to gracefully manage a crowd, we had 30 minutes for church pictures and 5 family groupings to capture. Needless to say, we loved our experience with Kayla and look forward to working with her for family photographs in the coming years!

Shooting with Laura was such a blast. Not only did she make it easy, she made it so much fun! We shot in Hocking Hills, which can be pretty tricky terrain to walk through while all dressed up! She made sure we were comfortable the entire time, helped me climb up and down stairs, & was so eager to help in any way that she could. To top it all off, HER PHOTOS WERE BREATHTAKING. I cried when I first saw them. They are photos of memories that I will treasure forever, & I owe it all to Laura! I can’t recommend her enough!
