Wendy was the sweetest photographer ever!! She was so kind right from the beginning. We had an engagement session with her and my husband and I were awkward and she helped us feel comfortable in front of the camera. As for the wedding she met all our expectations she made sure we covered all my ideas I sent her. The pictures came out so beautiful and made me cry all over again. I would book her again and again. Thank you Wendy truly.

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!

Kate was absolutely AMAZING! Her energy was fantastic and I felt so comfortable chatting with her and following her instructions for photos. My now fiancé could not have chosen anyone better to document such an important moment in our lives. Our photos so far are PERFECT! 1000/10 would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer!

Pedro was awesome! We were looking for a local (in Chicago) photographer, and found the perfect one. He was super easy to work with, and took amazing pictures. Our initial meeting was via Zoom, which made working it around our schedule super easy. He was extremely responsive to all of my emails, and even was workable with our budget and what we wanted to accomplish with photography. I love his ability to take un-staged, in the moment photos as well as great family photos. He went above and beyond for us, and we are grateful for so many amazing photos to choose from. I would definitely hire him again in a heartbeat.

George Street Photo and Video has one story to tell: Yours. With over twenty years of experience, our award-winning team has been lucky to capture thousands of weddings for our couples across the United States. Specializing in both wedding photography and videography, we offer affordable and customizable packages starting at $1295 that are designed to suit your unique vision and budget. We even offer a fun style test to help us match you with a photographer that aligns with the vibe of your day.

I have thoroughly enjoyed working with this photo and video team! I began working with the wedding coordinator, Nora, who was very informative and helpful throughout the process! My only concern was the fact that I was not able to know who my photo and video team was before a couple weeks before my wedding! As a wedding planner, I like to plan things ahead of time and make sure everybody is on the same page without questions or issues so that the day moves smoothly! Thankfully, once I received my photo & video team’s information, they were so eager to help and learn about my wedding day! Sarah, Brian, and Bobbie were the dream team! They got everything that I could’ve wanted captured on my wedding day and more! They went above and beyond to make sure that my wishes were granted, and the lighting was perfect and everything! They were really easy to work with and made sure to get the job done quickly so that we were able to thoroughly enjoy our day! We received our photos from our wedding day a few weeks ago, and we are absolutely in love with all of them! I love the organization that they put the photos in as well as adding additional photos such as candids and other photos that were captured throughout the day! When we received the wedding videos, it was like we were reliving the day all over again! So amazing to be able to rewatch the ceremony, speeches, and dances with my loved ones and reminisce! 1000% recommend!

Hi! I'm Emma, owner and lead photographer of Emma Mullins Photography. Our goal is simple: to capture your vibe, your people, and your love in a way that looks and feels true to life. We're in the middle of our 11th Chicago wedding season, and it's been a whirlwind of all things real and fabulous! We are super excited to offer FILM photography services to our awesome couples this year!!

We are so glad that we booked Emma Mullins Photography for our engagement photos and wedding - Emma is phenomenal! Our package included an engagement shoot, a second photographer, and a wedding album. We did our engagement shoot in Lincoln Park (where we got engaged). If you’re introverted like we are, rest assured that Emma will put you and your partner at ease and take stunning, creative shots. We saw several other couples also doing engagement shoots, and compared to other photographers, Emma was lively and made the experience fun. It was important that we felt comfortable with the person capturing intimate moments on a meaningful day, and Emma was absolutely the right person for the job. To prepare for our wedding day, Emma asked thoughtful questions and helped us create a list of shots and special details to capture. She did a wonderful job capturing every special moment of the ceremony and the reception, and the second photographer, Alexis, matched her energy and style. When we reviewed the photos afterward, we were delighted with how they turned out. Our album is a wonderful keepsake. We will cherish the photos of my husband and I, our bridal party, and family and friends. We cannot recommend Emma enough!

Hi! I'm so glad you're here. I'm a Chicago-based wedding photographer here to help you tell your love story. Through humor, support and documentary storytelling I'm there to capture your day in an authentic way that reflects who you both are, how you love, and how your community shows up for you. Stylistically, I consider myself a docu-storyteller with a flair for art-forward portraits. With a background in film and digital, I like to incorporate the classic, the dramatic and the real.

We LOVED working with Layne. She is such a positive energy and you can tell that she is so passionate about capturing the vibe and emotions of your wedding. When we look back at our photos we can see how it felt on that day. We were also unfortunate enough to experience a Covid wedding cancellation 2 months before our wedding was supposed to take place. Layne was very supportive and was willing to work with us to photograph our later elopement instead. Very communicative and a pleasure all around! We always recommend her when our friends are getting married as well.

*****The best way to reach me is to fill out the inquiry form on my website!***** As a documentary-style photographer, I love to emphasize connection, texture, and authentic emotion. Being a former actor who found a deep love and passion for wedding photography, I'm most drawn to the art of storytelling while creating honest and original work. I strive to make my images fully represent my couples in every way possible. I'm goofy, fun, and always create a deep connection with my couples to ensure their big day is captured with passion + care.

We are so happy we chose to work with Madi for our wedding photos and was one of best decisions we made. We immediately liked her on the first call as she was just easy to talk to and really took an interest in learning about our story. We could tell she had amazing organization skills, and her photography was exactly what we were looking for when it came to our wedding. She was friendly and personable and provided easy communication. She was very flexible, tolerated our need to bring our dogs into both the wedding and the engagement photos, and made us comfortable during the photography process. At our wedding, she was on time, and SO on top of things that I really didn't need to worry about anything getting done. She was on it and coordinated everything so seamlessly. She not only is excellent in her photography skills, but helped so much in establishing our timeline and sorting out what was actually feasible for the day. We really appreciated her expertise. I fully trusted her in the process and knowing that definitely took stress off of us. The best part, is she is just an awesome human!! I highly recommend Madi for your wedding!!

I've picked up a camera just about every day since I fell in love with photography in 2013. Though every shoot holds something unique, it takes a lot to catch me off guard after nearly a decade in business. I pride myself on my ability to quickly connect with my clients, making them feel comfortable, cared for, and confident that they look great. Not every event I’m at goes exactly according to plan and I know how to roll with the punches. Being a helpful and calming presence in the midst of your wedding is second nature to me. Basically, I try to treat people how I want to be treated: with fairness and understanding!

Awarded Best of Zola
Zach was absolutely amazing to work with! We were quick to book with him after clicking so well at our first meeting. We booked an engagement session separate from the wedding booking and were so glad we did! He provided great direction and conversation, helping two socially awkward folks feel comfortable and look like superstars. He was on time and professional for our wedding day, taking care to make sure we covered our photo list and suggesting a few shots that wound up as some of our favorites. He returned our images exactly on schedule and WOW! We were blown away! The photos exactly capture my memory of the wedding day. We would hire Zach again in a heartbeat!

Hey there! I’m a weddings and couples photographer based in Chicago, IL with my partner Emily and my rescue dog Daxter. I’m here to document joy and celebrate all the meaningful moments with the kickass people that find me.

We booked Sam for our elopement at City Hall in October and cannot say enough wonderful things about working with him! From the very beginning, he was organized and communicative and put us totally at ease. The day of our marriage ceremony, he was the absolute best third wheel, making the day feel special by hyping us up and also disappearing into the background so that we could have some special moments that felt more private. Neither my husband or I had ever done a formal photoshoot before but we both felt so comfortable with Sam that it wasn't awkward. And most importantly, the end product was phenomenal. Sam had edited (and shared with us!) more than half the gallery by the end of the day. The photos are gorgeous (the colors, the lighting, the framing of the shots) and perfectly capture our special day. We feel so seen. 10/10 would book again!

Kriztelle was such an amazing photographer for our wedding journey. From our first consultation she ensured the planning was about us and made us feel at ease with choosing a photographer. We checked out her instagram and loved her work, which led to our decision to book. Kriztelle was always flexible and honest with us. We quickly understood her passion and dedication as hopped on a boat with us on very cold Chicago day to ensure she got the best shots of us! When it came to the big day, Kriztelle made sure we were taken care of throughout her entire time with us. After each grouping of photos we took, after many photo requests from our family throughout the night (of course with our approval), and our truly candid photos on the dance floor. She checked every box we had requested. We also partnered with her for Photo Booth services and she managed everything like a well oiled machine. She was patient with our family and even helped us with a plan B when our outdoor wedding ceremony was rained on (Chicago weather at its finest). She worked a long day with us and captured detailed memories we will cherish forever. We recommend Kriztelle to anyone with professional photo needs, especially on their Wedding Day.

I don’t think I’ll ever stop raving about Ed & Aileen Photography. We worked with Ed for our wedding and engagement sessions, and it was a fantastic experience. We loved our engagement photos, and Ed surprised us with a 35mm film gallery from our wedding day. I don’t know how he has the energy to be everywhere at once, but he somehow does it. I can’t wait to see our digital photos. Every time I looked, he was there capturing moments. He brings a lot of fun energy everywhere he goes, and I can feel how much he loves his job. It shows in all his photos. If you want to work with a true professional, who gets down and dirty to get the right shots, Ed’s your guy. 10/10!! He coached us so we’d look our best, kept us on schedule, and expertly corralled our giant wedding party. All while leading us around the nature boardwalk at the Lincoln Park Zoo, finding the perfect spots. Thank you, Ed ️

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. Keeping posing to a minimum and capturing natural moments of your big day. I am a perfect photographer for a couple that believes the natural moments mean more than posed photographs.

Roman and Anastasia captured our wedding perfectly; we loved having them as our photographers as they were very relatable, kind, honest, and talented people. Communication with them was very easy and they always responded in a timely manner. During photography sessions they were open to our suggestions, but most importantly, they were great at making us feel comfortable. We love our photos and I am so glad we put our trust in them. I highly recommend them!

I developed a deep passion for photography when I was just 12 years old. Back then, capturing moments with my friends and family meant using Kodak Film, which was not as effortless as it is today. Since then, photography has remained my true calling. In 2002, I pursued my love for journalism and photography by studying at the reputable Institute of LAINSPROCOM. From 2006 onwards, I have been professionally capturing the beauty of weddings and portraits. My photography style can best be described as honest, sincere, and intimate. I strive to capture the raw emotions and captivating moments that make each occasion unique.

Our experience with Widlet was amazing. He is such a fun photographer to be around. He is very professional and got the eye to catch the perfect shot. In overall we ended with BEAUTIFUL PICTURES. I would recommend him without a doubt.

Hi, I'm Samuel! Chicago based wedding and elopement photographer here to give couples a truly relaxed and down to earth experience. Being photographed shouldn't be uncomfortable or boring!  Telling love stories through photos brings me immense joy. 

We were so grateful to Samuel who was able to document our city hall ceremony on a very last minute request during the end of year holidays. (Are you free next weekend?) We were drawn to the documentary style of his work and thought it was a fitting way to remember a special moment in a basement of Chicago's City Hall. Leading up to the day, we texted and chatted about places to do portraits after and Samuel was very patient and helpful in suggesting places that felt right for me and my partner. Not only did he have the inside scoop on what the city hall ceremony was going to be like and what was going to happen, but he was also great to hang out with in line and and get to know better. We both felt very comfortable working with Samuel and the nerves of working with a professional photographer for the first time went out the window. I can only imagine how amazing the experience would be to work with Samuel with more time to prepare or at locations a little less drab than a city hall basement!

Hello, my name is Nikki, and I am a wedding and family photographer for the sentimental and nostalgic. I have been lucky enough to call this my career for over 12 years. I am driven by a passion for storytelling and documenting your life for you to keep forever. Rooted in the heart of Chicago, IL, I am always ready to pack my bags and travel wherever your story unfolds (frequently travel to CO and WI). Whether it's the heartfelt promises exchanged on your wedding day or the joyful pitter-patter of little feet during an intimate family session at home, I treasure the opportunity to document every chapter of your life.

I have said it before and I will say it time and time and time again - Nikki is one of the most talented, genuine, and kindest souls you will EVER meet! She photographed our wedding on October 4th, and I continue to receive the sweetest comments from my bridal party, family members, and wedding guests regarding how accommodating, polite, and sweet Nikki is! Although we have only received a "sneak peak" of our photos thus far, I have received ENDLESS compliments regarding the quality of these photos. Her photos are warm, timeless, intimate, and just full to the brim with love. We had a tight timeline on the day of our wedding leaving limited time for photos, and Nikki was AMAZING at taking charge of the situation and helping to keep everyone on track to ensure we would get the photos we desired. She is organized, timely, and poised and professional in all her interactions with both us and other vendors the day of. I would pick Nikki time and time again for any and all life events because I just know that not only will she take the photos, but they will be photos that we will treasure and share for a LIFETIME. Thank you, Nikki, not only for all that you do, but also just for being you! We are so lucky to know you!

From my first moment as a wedding photographer, I knew I wanted to kick tradition to the curb. I was tried of seeing wedding photography that excluded the communities that I hold closest. I work hard to form a real connection with each of my clients to craft an experience that captures their unique spirit.

Ashley is so perceptive and talented! I told her a little bit about us and our style and she created the right balance between moodiness and fun that we wanted. She always got back to us just under 24 hours and answered every question that we had. She is dedicated to her clients and their needs. I enjoyed being in her company because she made us feel comfortable. She understood our needs and never pressured us to do anything out of our comfort zone. We are a more laid back, care-free couple, so we gave Ashley lots of space to experiment and it definitely paid off. If nothing else has convinced you, we have already booked our 1 year anniversary photos with her and I will continue to go back to her for any event that should be photographed.

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!

LATOSHA'S EXCEPTIONAL SKILLS, WARM PERSONALITY, AND TALENT FOR MAKING EVERYONE FEEL COMFORTABLE MAKE HER THE PERFECT CHOICE FOR COUPLES SEEKING BOTH INCREDIBLE PHOTOGRAPHS AND A TRUSTED FRIEND THROUGHOUT THE WEDDING PLANNING PROCESS.

I truly couldn’t have asked for a better photographer on our wedding day. She had done my graduation pictures, so I wanted to have her do our wedding pictures due to how amazing the grad pictures came out. She is extremely proactive - she had us meet 2 times before the wedding in order to go over details and background on my husband and I. I could truly see that she genuinely cares about each of her clients and giving them the best day possible and figuring out what’s important to each couple. I really appreciate this because felt like a collaborate effort. On the day of the wedding, she had the BEST energy. Her joy, positivity and personality truly shine and radiate. I received so many comments on how much guests loved our photographer because of how lively and wonderful she was. Additionally, she was extremely creative by having us do table shots and working with the DJ to turn it into a fun game of which table was the fastest. We and our guests had such a fun time with this idea, and how we were able to get pictures with all our guests. I truly can’t recommend LaTosha enough. She is authentic, creative, radiant, talented, and so wonderful to work with. Our wedding day and pictures came out beautifully and because of her it was stress free and fun! Thank you for everything!!!
