In 2021 I quit my day job to pursue my long time love of wedding photography full time... and it's extremely safe to say I have no regrets! I've met the most incredible people through this job, and it fills me up knowing I can give what feels like the ultimate creative gift. I come from a small Illinois town with a large extended family and a circle lifelong friends who might as well be blood. My community, the people I love, and the little things that bond us together mean everything to me. Let me help you celebrate you and yours!

Andrea was one of the photographers recommended by our venue (Venue at the Grove) and we couldn’t be happier that we went with her. We knew we were in good hands at our engagement shoot, where she made us feel comfortable and was so fun to work with. I was so happy to see her on my wedding day because it felt like having another friend there with us on our day! Our photos (engagement and wedding) turned out beautiful and are the perfect way to look back on and remember our wedding.

  • Serves Peru, IL for additional fees

Hi, I'm McKenna! The person behind the camera and a hopeless romantic. I describe my photography style as candid, romantic, and timeless. My goal is to make a human connection with all my clients and deliver images that you'll love forever. I started 1828 Collective in 2016 after I realized that capturing relationships and telling love stories was my passion. Four years later I'm so in love with my job that I often forget I'm working. I find joy in capturing love, hearing about how you met, and everything in between.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you have spent even just a few minutes checking out McKenna's work, it is obvious how good she is at getting her subjects comfortable! Creating images that are playful and honest. Well crafted and timeless. Intimate and irresistibly fun. But what you may not be able to see through the limitations of your computer screen, is how she exudes positivity, enthusiasm, and carries a genuine curiosity. Does this sound like someone who you would want at your wedding? I hope so. I have had the pleasure of working along side her while capturing video and I'd happily have her at every wedding taking the photos! Hire her to tell your story.

Images can recreate those intangible elements more fully in our mind, allowing us to relive our emotional experience long after the day has ended.

Kelsey Sheehan Photography was founded in 2019. I made the jump into being a professional photographer to follow my heart and work in a career path that I love! When I am not working you can find me baking with country or 90s/00s R&B blasting, sitting by the fire with my neighbors, doing yoga, kickboxing, jiu jitsu, or hiking with my family. Okay, and maybe binge watching Schitt's Creek, Gilmore Girls, or Grey's Anatomy for the hundredth time.

Kelsey was wonderful to work with for an engagement photo session. She had great recommendations and was flexible when our original date had forecast for rain. She was very professional and easy to communicate with. 1000/10 would recommend working with Kelsey to anyone.

Photography truly has a full grip on my soul– I love EVERYTHING about capturing special moments to be forever held in time! I consider my style to be way more candid, as I truly adore capturing an authentic experience that is almost tangible to the person viewing the photo. I want the viewer to feel the emotion and as if they were there with us right back in that moment. I love realness of a perfect candid shot…my goal—especially with couples—is to get to the heart of their connection and connect with my couples, as well, to truly make them feel comfortable in front of the lens so that we can get to those authentic magic shots!

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the pleasure of working with MoonTide Media for our wedding photography/videography. Shannon and Ally were an absolute joy to work with from start to finish. Their communication throughout the planning process was fantastic - they consistently kept us updated on travel plans and made sure we were all on the same page regarding the photography timeline. Most importantly, the quality of their work is stunning. We recently received a preview of some of our photos and were brought to tears by the beautiful images capturing our special day. Shannon and Ally have a true talent for capturing emotional moments without ever getting in the way. They were the hardest working team at our venue, going above and beyond to get every possible shot we could have imagined. We felt so comfortable with them that they even grabbed some extra candids of our wedding party that we had asked for with no issues. If you're looking for amazing photographers/videographers who produce breathtaking images while also making you feel at ease and comfortable on your wedding day, look no further than MoonTide Media.

Jenni and her team did a phenomenal job capturing our wedding day. We felt so comfortable from the moment we first met with her and that definitely translated to how easy it felt taking direction from her for our wedding day photos. Her team took time to get to know us and figure out what we were comfortable with so it felt natural (we're not the most comfortable in front of the camera but somehow she figured out how to get those sweet in the moment shots without it feeling forced!). The photos turned out stunning. From the formal portraits to our mountain top vows to the sweetest candids she captured of me and my dad and my adorable nieces and nephews there’s seriously so many amazing photos to choose from. I also appreciated how organized she was with our formal portrait list keeping it quick and everyone ready to move through those as soon as possible. Cannot recommend her enough. Thank you so much Jenni! We absolutely could not dream of better photos!

Tara Beth Photography is a place of inclusion, empathy, intimacy, and care. From the first email, I take care with my clients. Considering them all unique, and with that, their stories being unique. We talk about how you want to be captured, how your love should be captured. We go over insecurities, love stories, and anything else that may come up during our Zoom calls. I don't want to be just someone you hire. I want to be considered someone you trust, and enjoy to have around!

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Tara Beth for our wedding in December 2022. We started following her instagram years prior and fell in love with how she captured every moment, from the guests to the couple. Not only were her photos amazing, but being a part of the LGBTQ community can feel daunting at times when reaching out to vendors, specifically for same-sex weddings. We had a few tough experiences with other vendors in regards to being a same-sex couple, but Tara Beth, as she is a part of the community, made it easy to feel comfortable and accepting. We contacted her and were met with a quick response. From the start, we knew she was the one. Her vibe and passion for love sold us! My wife and I were very nervous to take photos, but Tara Beth reassured us that she would walk us through everything - and she did just that. She talked us through our first look and it was an amazing experience. She also guided our party and family photos, which was super helpful as we were able to get our photos done ahead of schedule! We appreciate everything Tara Beth did for our special day and would recommend her 100 times over!

From the moment we booked Dj Harrington Photography, their communication was on point. They made me feel completely worry-free leading up to the wedding. On the day, both photographers were amazing to have by our side - not only did they capture phenomenal shots, but they also reminded us to take a moment and enjoy ourselves. They felt like best friends following us around, and it didn't feel like we had just hired a couple for the day. Their passion, kindness, and talent were evident in every photo. I truly believe Dj Harrington Photography found their calling, and I am so grateful they were a part of our special day. They exceeded all of my expectations and I can't recommend them enough.

Hey!! Congratulations and I'm so excited you're here! My name's Lissa (pronounced "Lyss-uh") and photographs are my jam! Also my jam? Bright colors, the lamest jokes, floral everything, weird history, and awesome ghost stories. I'm a total mother hen / perpetual big sister and I'm mom to Max, Henry, and Penelope. I love creating. I garden. I sew. I crochet. I design ridiculously cute tee shirts. But most of all? I freaking love creating photographs. A professional photographer since 2011 (eek!), my photographs are bright, happy, and totally meant to hit you in the feels. But most of all? They're a total party!

It was such a pleasure having Lissa as the photographer for our wedding. She has taken several photos for me and my family throughout the years, and each time the photos have always been exactly what we wanted. Her photos are vibrant, full of color, and full of feeling. Lissa was sure to respond quickly to contracts, questions, and provided information in a timely manner. She listened to our desires and concerns, and when needed she provided feedback that helped us feel more comfortable and excited to work with her. She is incredibly easy to work with her. She was flexible with any photo requests that came up in the moment, and she guided and directed us for other shots she felt would turn out well when we weren't sure what to do next. She was professional and courteous to all of our wedding guests and yet always made sure to prioritize our (the bride and groom) desires and time as opposed to the rest of our wedding party. She had a happy, yet focused disposition while working with us. That focus was evident in the BEAUTIFUL pictures she took. She perfectly captured our joy that day. Turnaround time was better than expected, and we couldn't be happier with the results. We have no regrets with our choice of wedding photographer. She's amazing!

From the initial consult, to the delivery of our Gallery, Sam was the superhero needed to keep things going smoothly. If you’re looking for a photographer who has skills in getting to know who you really are, making sure your personality is as much in the photos as you are, going above and beyond to help things go smoothly, take care of things you didn’t even know needed to be done, and show up in whatever way helps you while getting the job done: you’ve found her. I could not possibly say enough that would capture how great of an experience it was to work with Sam; the professionalism, care, and attention to details are as equally prevalent in her practice as her positive attitude, genuine helpfulness, and kind spirit. That is to say, Sam is everything you could want in a photographer, and everything you need to make sure it’s done with the utmost precision and skill.

Heyo! I am a lady (she/her) that adores photography. I describe my style as eclectic classic. I absolutely cover the basics, but add in a lot of fun and creative shots too. I am based out of Central Southern Illinois, but I am willing to travel to any location.

My wedding photos were the perfect depiction of my wedding day. I felt confident and you can tell him the pictures. I had told Sollie that I was self-conscious about how I looked at times. Sollie was conscientious of angles and trying to get pictures she thought look good as well as getting photos that were important to me. She included my family and got shots that were not necessarily planned, but turned out perfect. I have now used her for all of my family photos and photos of my children ever since and don’t plan on changing that. She is amazing.

We feel so lucky to have found Andrew as our wedding photographer. He has an incredible eye for the editorial style and makes his photos into works of art with golden light and chiaroscuro. So many photographers just rely on their high-res equipment but don't offer anything more--I don't want a macro shot of every pore or line on my face like an owl in a tree at 100 yards, I want to have a sense of magic and beauty in every photo. Andrew actually does that. I almost cried when I saw our first look photos because I don't feel very confident being photographed and I finally had dozens of photos of myself and my husband that I want to share with friends immediately and cherish forever. He delivered the first look so fast, even though I know he was busy working another wedding; I thought for sure we would have to wait longer. The wedding package we chose included very nice touches like polaroids so we had something in hand at the end of the wedding day itself, too. It was very thoughtful and left us feeling good about the whole experience right away. He was very personal and nice to work with, but not intrusive, and went with the little schedule changes we had, and was open to suggestions while we took post-ceremony photos around the city. I couldn't be happier with our experience with him and would recommend him highly to anyone looking for a real artist for their wedding photography.

We wanted to be able to share our special day with them from afar. Diana’s photos made that possible. She beautifully and organically captured the whole day better than I could have imagined. On top of Diana’s excellent photography and editing skills, she is a genuinely kind person who made me and my husband feel comfortable and at ease.

Hello! I’m Nicole, Your Wedding Photographer, storyteller, and friend. If you’ve found your way here, it’s likely because you’re a lot like me—someone who cherishes heartfelt moments, believes in love stories that are as unique as the people in them, and values the beauty of what happens in those unplanned, in-between moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
Nicole captured the wedding day from beginning to end in such effortless and timeless fashion; from the tiny details of our homemade Day-of-the-Dead sugar cookie decorations to the vast woody backdrop of where my husband and I said our vows, Nicole captured every design and element through her camera lense with artful finesse, giving my husband and I treasured photographic stills that will forever keep our special wedding day celebration alive. Even more impressive is how Nicole adapted to our needs in every way possible, such as running up the stairs to grab my husband’s boutonnière, organizing each family for pictures after the ceremony, climbing up on rocks for that perfect shot, and helping bustle the long train of my dress for the first dance. She brings calm to the chaos and reassurance to any unexpected uncertainty. Her crafted behind-the-scenes edits are also stunning and preserved the genuine characteristics, colors, and romance of our wedding day. I cannot recommend Nicole enough!

I studied photography at Savannah College of Art and Design and started my freelance photography career when I graduated in 2016!

If I had to describe Cayleigh in one word, it would be fantastic! When I was look for a photographer I really wanted someone who would mesh well with my husband as he is not very photogenic, or should I say camera shy.

We did and Engagement shoot, 10 hours for our wedding, and will be doing some maternity photos here in a couple months as well!
