Jana Blue Photography (Photo + Film) 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Steger, IL

My name is Jana Blue and I've been photographing weddings for 12 years. I'm consistent not in a trend of photos or style, but emotions. Each wedding and couples are so unique and my work follows that. In my career I've photographed both big production weddings and also intimate DIY ones. I've photographed informal engagements and elopements/weddings in a desert in Chile, in the mountains of Zion, in a beach in Croatia, in an ancient church in Greece and in forests in Brazil. I work with all different budgets and needs from my brides. I'm a preferred vendor of Chicago First Lady Boat, so I do weddings on the boat during the summer.

It was truly an honor having Jana and her team capture every part of our special day. She exceeded our expectations and went above and beyond with delivering the most stunning and breath taking photos. From the very start, Jana took the time to get to know us as a couple and was with us every step of our planning journey. Even with a family emergency, Jana went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and she delivered an unforgettable experience I will forever cherish. Jana herself radiates so much light, joy, creativity, and passion, and her presence alone made everyone around feel all the good vibes. Jana will work with you and will give you so many great options. Her packages are perfectly curated and she will deliver. Anyone who gets to work with her and her team are incredibly lucky!

A Chicago-based wedding and elopement photographer that values genuine connection, authentic emotions, and getting to know my clients on a deep and personal level. I value capturing your moments and memories exactly how they happen, helping you to remember the feelings of intimacy, love, and warmth of marrying your person.

I don't even have the words to tell y'all how amazing Jayde is. We are SO grateful we reached out to Jayde back in 2022 for our engagement shoot and immediately knew we needed to hire her for our April 2024 wedding. From the very beginning, Jayde was super professional, patient, and on top of it, not to mention SO friendly and warm. She made me and my husband feel so special and comfortable in front of her camera, and our entire bridal party loved her too. She created a seamless timeline for the day that worked so well and she made sure we were on time all day. The photos truly speak for themselves. She has an amazing eye and we are obsessed with her editing style. She surprised us with over 100 (!!!) previews the next morning and they were INCREDIBLE - we were blown away and shocked that she could turn them around that quickly. We are so so so excited to see our full gallery soon. Don't hesitate to book Jayde - she's truly a gem in the Chicago wedding industry. We can't wait to find another reason to book her!

Daniela Cardili Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $5,900
  • Serves Steger, IL

Daniela Cardili tells the story of your wedding day with heartfelt images that artfully portray this very personal event. She combines her unique sense of style and her passion for photography to create a photographic document that captures special moments, relationships, and love. Her style reflects a mix of a photojournalist’s reflexes, a portraitist’s eye, and the strong influence of the worlds of beauty and fashion. She continues to build on her abundant natural talent by attending workshops and seminars to keep up with the latest trends in wedding photography.

We live in New York but are planning our Chicago wedding which makes vendor selection tied to phone calls and e-mails. In a process that can feel so impersonal, Daniela made it immediately feel like she had known us forever! During our first call, she was down right excited about our wedding which made me even more excited! Since we were in New York, we originally decided to hire Daniela for our wedding and do engagement photos local to NY. Once the pandemic hit and we had to move our wedding, my fiance and I wanted to do something romantic together. We called Daniela and asked if she would do an engagement shoot for us in Chicago. I cannot tell you how happy I am that we decided to do that. It was the BEST day. We got to spend the evening laughing together, exploring our hometown, and enjoying each moment - that is exactly what Daniela captured. Scrolling through the photographs, I didn't know someone could capture love like that. I am so grateful to have these pictures forever and ever. If I could describe her final product it would be the perfect balance of high end, romantic, chic, natural. It is instantly clear looking at her photographs that she is an incredible professional who takes her craft very seriously all with a big smile and heart to make you comfortable to look and feel your best. We booked a vendor and ended up with a friend for life! Can't wait for the wedding!

I've been photographing weddings and love stories for ten years and have captured 200+ wedding days. After photographing my very first wedding for a dear friend, I couldn't believe how much I LOVED photographing wedding days. To tell each couple's completely unique and beautiful love story from behind my camera...there is no greater honor and joy!

First, I am SO incredibly happy I went with Winterlyn to capture my wedding day! As soon as she got to the venue, she went to work and did not stop until she left for the night. I appreciated her work ethic, professionalism, advice, and creativity. Her personality made it easy to have a great day, even in the midst of a little chaos. Also, I have to mention her second shooter, Antwonette, was a pleasure to work with as well! Second, the sneak peak pictures....BLEW ME AWAY! I wanted light, airy, magical pictures, and she delivered beyond my wildest dreams (and I only have seen the sneak peaks). Between the detail pictures, portraits, groups, ceremony and reception, Winter sure knows how to capture the magic of a wedding. If you are looking for a photographer, Winterlyn is hands down the best! Thank you for everything Winterlyn!

The Nicodem team is everything you want and need in a photography team for your big day. Not only are they incredibly personable, they are extremely organized, professional, efficient, and talented. When we began inquiring with photographers for our wedding, we were having a hard time finding the right fit because everything seemed so impersonal. The Nicodems reached out with a beautiful email and wanted to schedule a phone call for our consultation. Our 30 minute conversation turned into an hour because they were so lovely and I felt like they truly cared about getting to know us, learning our story our story, and hearing about our vision for our day! We knew that they would be the perfect fit. Our engagement photos were so fun with them and they turned out incredible. Leading up to the wedding weekend the Nicodems frequently checked in with us to see how we were doing, if we needed anything, and even sent us flowers (how cute is that?!?!). During our wedding day, we weren't worried about anything because we knew the Nicodem Team would take care of everything. We were calm and able to focus on the joy of the day. The Nicodems did a fabulous job organizing my crazy and big family, capturing special moments, and being our pump-up squad. After the wedding they gave us some sneak peeks and we were dying to see more. Within the timeline provided they gave us our full gallery, and 2 years later, we look at it almost monthly. The only regret is that I wish we booked them for video too!! Your wedding photos and video are forever, to make sure they are perfect, make sure you have the Nicodem Team for both! Thank you Nicodems! You are the absolute best :) xx, The Campions
