PTaufiq Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $10,000
  • Serves Shawneetown, IL for additional fees

P.Taufiq Photography is the creation of artist and award-winning photographer, Pervez Taufiq. Pervez has a love and passion for photography that has exponentially blossomed over the last 10 years. As the lead singer for Boston based band Living Syndication, he was used to being on the other side of the lens but was always fascinated with how and what made a picture or video speak to the viewer. Despite touring in front of hundreds of thousands of people and having songs chart on radio and TV, he kept gravitating towards the photo and video world. “When people ask me what equipment I use, I tell them “my eyes and my heart” -Pervez Taufiq

Working with Pervez and Nicole Taufiq was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very first conversation, it felt like we were talking to friends—not just vendors. They took the time to understand us as people, not just clients. Nothing felt forced. Their warmth, calm energy, and natural ability to connect made every step of the process feel effortless. Of course, their work is jaw-dropping—stunning photography and cinematic videos that speak for themselves. But what truly sets them apart, what makes them luxury photographers, is their deep care, passion, and personal commitment to the couple. Weddings are chaotic. Things go wrong. Timelines shift. Emotions run high. But through it all, Pervez and Nicole became our steady hands. When things didn’t go as planned, they stepped in—quietly, calmly, confidently. They always had a backup plan. They always had our backs. They protected our peace. They made sure we stayed at the center of it all—not lost in the logistics or pulled in every direction. They reminded us to slow down and feel every moment. And that’s something we’ll never forget. The entire PTaufiq team felt like family. They surrounded us with people who matched our vibe and supported us at every turn. From the intimate first look to the whirlwind of events across our wedding weekend in Panama, they were always there—guiding, cheering, capturing, and caring. They weren’t just there to take beautiful photos and videos—they brought vision. They managed logistics, directed flow, and created space for us to be fully present. Thanks to them, we didn’t just have memories—we got to live them. By the end of the weekend, the relationship wasn’t just vendor and client—it became something so much more. We’re forever grateful to have met not just extraordinary artists, but lifelong friends. If you’re looking for a team that will go beyond the lens, who will pour heart and soul into your day, who will treat your wedding like it’s the only one that matters—Pervez, Nicole, and their team are it. Their passion is unmatched. Their energy is contagious. Their impact is unforgettable. There’s no price tag for what they bring to the table. Because what they give you isn’t just content—it’s a legacy. Thank you for everything, Payal and Kirtan - Panama 2025

They explained the flow that made sense but never pressured me to make decisions I didn’t want to rather giving me more information as they expert opinion.

Elizabeth Ladean Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Shawneetown, IL for additional fees

In a nutshell - I am your giddy third wheel! I’ll travel anywhere for a great love story, I believe photography should be FUN, and that it should feel like an adventure because really, it’s just us, going on a little adventure together! This is also a no pressure situation! You don’t have to know “how to pose” — this isn’t about posing at all! This is 100% about us 3 out and about together, having fun, laughing a ton, and me giving you guys prompts and direction all in the effort of eliciting a natural reaction!

I can't recommend Elizabeth Ladean Photography enough!! I've had the opportunity to work together personally and professionally many times over the years. She truly is the best in the business!! She is extremely talented as a photographer and has a knack for making you feel comfortable and at ease. She is responsive, organized, and proactive. I've worked with many wedding professionals; she has always stood out in the way she runs her business! When you work with Elizabeth you'll get gorgeous, timeless photos but also a memorable experience!! Highly recommend!!!

Jamie Rogers Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Serves Shawneetown, IL for additional fees

Hey I'm Jamie! I'm an wedding + lifestyle photographer based in St. Louis, MO but I love to travel! Photography and LOVE are two things I adore! One thing I can guarentee is you'll probably hear me say, "I love love!" at least once on your special day! I can't wait to get to know you more and share in your memorable day!

For our elopement session in Florida, Jamie, the lead photographer, did SUCH an amazing job! She was very detailed and directed us with posing, how to stand, what to do, etc. As someone who has no clue what to do when having my photo taken, Jamie was EXTREMELY helpful with guiding both me and my husband. We had a couple of scheduling errors (on our end) and had to switch the times and Jamie was so gracious and flexible and still got our photos done with the gorgeous Florida sunset. The photographer was so kind and professional towards us and she is our go-to for all of our photography needs. I was able to communicate with her with utmost ease without ever feeling like a burden. I have gotten multiple sessions done with Jamie and each one never fails to amaze me, each time more than the rest. I would 1000% recommend Jamie Rogers Photography and anytime anyone needs a photographer, I always give them Jamie's name and they are always impressed by her services.

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!

Jack Wylde (they/them) (name in progress) I am an Inclusive Wedding Photographer blends fine art with authentic storytelling, creating images that feel timeless and deeply personal. Inspired by the richness of romantic paintings, I capture love with moody tones, candid moments, and creative angles. From elopements at sunrise to backyard celebrations under the stars, I celebrate all types of unions—LGBTQIA+, non-traditional, eco-friendly, and more. Whether it’s a courthouse ceremony or a handfasting in the woods, I focus on the details and emotions that make your day truly yours. Let’s turn your love story into art.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our elopement photos by From GA with Love are absolutely magical. They didn’t just capture the obvious moments but found the heart in every little detail of our day. One of our favorite shots is of the winding dirt road we drove down at sunrise, with the mist clinging to the trees—it feels like the start of our own fairy tale. Another incredible image is of us exchanging our vows on a quiet riverbank, with a heron landing in the background as if nature itself was blessing our ceremony. Even the candid photo of us laughing together while struggling to light our unity candle in the breeze is now one of our most cherished memories. Their ability to honor the intimacy and uniqueness of our day made our gallery feel deeply personal and full of love. The best part was the inclusion of our kid, who got to feel like a part of the day. If you want a photographer who can make your story feel as epic and authentic as it deserves, they are the one.

  • Serves Shawneetown, IL for additional fees

WELCOME! I'M LISA. And I am so glad you found my online home! There’s something magical about the sparkle in a man’s eye as he says “I do” to his bride. There’s something wondrous about the warmth of your husband’s comforting embrace after a long day at work. And there’s something simply delightful about the mischievous grin on a toddler’s face as they burst into laughter, telling their momma the best joke ever. (Spoiler alert: it'd probably be a bit inappropriate for the dinner table!)

Awarded Best of Zola
Lisa went above and beyond anything I've heard a photographer do and became a friend. Planning a wedding during a pandemic can be stressful but Lisa made sure it was the most beautiful and special day. She is very responsive, detailed and caring. My husband is not one for pictures, but she made him feel comfortable. Lisa not only captured our small wedding ceremony in 2020 but also our reception in 2021. The pictures are absolutely stunning and perfect!! She was so well organized and kept everything running smoothly. I never had to worry or stress about the picture aspect of my wedding and could not be more thankful. I highly recommend Lisa.
