I believe that every picture I take and give you should be frame-worthy. Give me beautiful light and good vibes and I'm set to go! Looking forward to hearing your story, getting to know You better and creating memories for you! If you are looking for a fine art wedding photographer in Chicago I would love to hear from you!

From the moment we first spoke with Bozena of Bozena Voytko Photography, we knew we had found our wedding photographer. Her communication was prompt, detailed, and personable, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of her work is truly stunning - her light and airy style beautifully captures the details and natural light of our special day. Bozena shot our engagement session as well, so we knew it would be a breeze to work with her on our wedding day. She was a joy to have by our side, and the photos she delivered just 12 days after our wedding are incredible. We are thrilled with the way she was able to document all the special moments that made our day so unique and meaningful.

Awarded Best of Zola
When we hired JVaughn Photography we knew we were getting an amazing photographer but we had no idea we would be getting such an amazing person and friend out of it too! Justin is the absolute sweetest person we have had the honor of meeting and he has such a great eye to make our vision come to life! He made sure to have a meeting with us to get to know us and understand the vibe we wanted for our photos and he kept constant communication throughout the entire process to make sure all the bases were covered and he had a clear understanding of the timeframe and game plan. He was the one vendor we NEVER had to worry about. After he gave us our engagement photos, everyone knew he was the perfect photographer for us. Once the wedding day came, the entire bridal party and guests could not stop raving about how much they loved him! He gives clear direction on how to pose, what to do with your hands, how to fix your face, and knows how to use lighting. One of our biggest concerns when finding a photographer is having someone know how to use lighting because more often than not either I get lost in the light or my fiancé gets lost since our complexions are so far from each other. Thankfully Justin knew exactly how to make it all work out! He also stuck to the game plan and made sure none of those important shots are missed but he was also flexible enough to allow us to add in and change some of that game plan. I can honestly sit here and say that thanks to JVaughn Photography, our big day was absolutely perfect (even during covid). We already told him to get ready for our maternity photos, gender reveal, baby shower, and family portraits. I will forever recommend him to EVERYONE.

Hi! I’m Connie! First of all congrats!🍾 ✨Thank you for visiting my profile and considering me as your photographer! I am so excited for your big day! Here are some things you might wanna know! I’m not typical photog- I don’t just arrive on your day, leave after few hours, and deliver few months later! I’m there for all the moments leading to the big day! You can hit me up any time- we can brainstorm all the ideas, timelines, all the tiniest details! I am a fan of Pinterest vision boards, sending each other tons of messages and be open about EVERYTHING! This is your day! Let’s make it all about YOU!

All I can say is Connie is hands down so much more than a photographer. She was so patient, kind, and positive when we had our elopement. We got down pour rain and she was quick to have plans to take us to get beautiful pictures. She was so thoughtful with doing things she didn’t have to do, like helping hold my wet dress, and so much more. Connie is extremely calming presence in a stressful and hectic day. We absolutely loved our pictures and all the special moments she captured without us realizing and was truly so special working with her!

So there’s no “I” in team right?! While Captured Couture is the product of years of hard work that I built from the ground up. I have an amazing team because sometimes takes more than just me.

We’ve covered hundreds of weddings together, and have refined our editing style and way of shooting to be completely consistent. You won’t be able to tell the difference. Pinky promise! No matter where you’re planning from when it clicks, it clicks.

Jennifer and her team are seriously a dream come true. I could not have imagined better photos that captured our wedding day and all the feelings we had. The wedding went by so fast I almost didn’t remember everything. But then came my stunning photos from Jennifer. She brought me back to that day and I felt like I was reliving the day again. Jennifer and her team are so talented and make you feel comfortable and helped guide us in poses, etc. Will gladly recommend her to anyone in the future wanting exquisite photos and an incredible photographer.

You NEED to have Mariah as your wedding photographer – YOU WON’T REGRET IT!!! My husband and I got married July 23rd, 2022 and we had the pleasure of having Mariah by our side for the last year to help document our love. We are based in New York City and having to plan a wedding in another state was a challenge since I don’t have many creative connections in Illinois. From the moment we met Mariah for our consultation meeting last Fall, we IMMEDIATELY clicked with her energy and it was a no brainer to us that we would love to work with her. Mariah came to New York on a cold Fall morning to shoot our engagement photos and came to shoot our engagement party as well. My husband and I are admittedly awkward and didn’t think we would feel comfortable with getting our pictures taken, but Mariah made us feel like we were just being ourselves as she captured us on camera. Our photos were always a top priority when planning our wedding vendor list and we could not have asked for a better match in creative expression than Mariah. With our engagement/engagement party photos as a teaser, we absolutely cannot wait for our rehearsal dinner/wedding day photos. Our guests were in awe of how she made everyone feel at ease and are equally as excited as we are to see what she captured on our big day!! Mariah is a creative genius and we are so happy to have been able to be added to the King & Opal family!!! Message her NOWWWWW to set up your consultation!!!!!!

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

It felt like Hana went above and beyond for us but that’s truly just how she works! Leading up to the big day, she was incredibly helpful and answered any and all questions we had. On the big day, like many people are, I was a ball of nerves - Hana and team were the calm I needed throughout the day. She helped us stay on schedule for photos and was flexible when things had to shift. Not to mention, our photos are absolutely incredible!! I wouldn’t change one thing about our experience and I truly cannot recommend Hana enough !!

I was that kid enchanted by Disney Princess movies and the idea of "true love". My true love revealed itself through photography. At 8, I grabbed my dad's camera and was hooked, thrilled to show people my world. I started with zoo animals, friends, and siblings, eager to freeze moments in time. As I grew, I learned from local photographers and knew by 17 that photography was my calling. Since then, I’ve captured love in all its forms: couples, new parents, best friends, and the joy of seeing your favorite band live. The world is full of magical firsts, and I'm honored to capture these moments forever.

We’ve known Kaitlyn for a while and were so honored to have her capture our wedding events! She was there for the proposal, engagement shoot, rehearsal dinner, and the wedding day! Kaitlyn is so fun to be around and so incredibly talented! We really appreciated her “fly on the wall” approach so we could just enjoy ourselves and live in the moment without having to worry about posing. Looking forward to having her capture many more of our milestones in the future :)

I am a Chicago-based wedding + elopement photographer. I am available worldwide and love to travel! I document genuine moments for couples, no matter who they love. My images are the perfect mix of posed and photojournalistic, giving you gorgeous portraits without missing the important, candid moments you will want to remember for years to come. My approach to wedding days is simple: I want to make sure you have images of you two that you love and cherish and tell your wedding day story.

I came across Tawny a few years ago when she was tagged on another Instagram page that I followed. I was immediately drawn to her style, and her inclusiveness as a photographer. I knew someday, when the time came for me to get married, that Tawny would be on the short list. After getting engaged and beginning our vendor search, Tawny's attention to detail, and personalization of her services stood out amongst all the other inquiries we sent out. Something as simple as the personalized video she sent us after our initial inquiry, detailing her packages and what she felt would be best based on what we were looking for. When we finally met for our engagement shoot this past February, we had an instant connection! Tawny was so inclusive, and captured our vision so perfectly that we could not wait until wedding day! This past weekend, we had the pleasure of spending the entire day with her, and as a bride, the biggest piece of advice I can give other brides is to choose vendors who you vibe with, and want to spend your whole day with! I would get married a million times over if Tawny was going to be on my team!

Hi! My name is Mouna, I am a wedding and lifestyle photographer. I love a beautiful smile, a good book, green tea, watching the sunrise, and photography. I am a life seeker, a dreamer, a giver who express gratitude towards beauty, relationships, love and laughter through my lens. I've studied and practiced photography for over ten years. I would love to get to know you, listen to your story, meet your family, and to be part of the team you’re putting together for your big day.

I started my photography business having a passion for capturing pure emotions and real life moments. I love capturing the essence of people, love and the characteristics that define them both. Being able to visualize a bond between people and bring that to life through a photo is what I set out to do, no matter what moment I am capturing!

I worked together with Liz a couple of times while second shooting. Liz is great with detail! She is always finding the alternative angle to best cover a couple's event. She is professional, kind, and inclusive. Liz is go-with-the-flow and able to adapt to the unpredictability that wedding days can sometimes be. Overall, Liz is a wonderful photographer!

As a small boy, I would sit for hours watching my mother hand-color portraits for a local photographer, during the cold winter months, by a fire in our family room. From there I began taking my own pictures with my first box camera. Fast forward to a restless twenty-something working as a microbiologist, taking weddings and portraits on weekends. Eventually I graduated college with an M.A. in Photography and started out in Chicago, assisting numerous photographers, shooting everything from oranges to weddings. I have been fortunate to have worked all over the world. Photography is more than a job, it’s an avocation, a passion, it's what I do.

Hi and thanks for viewing my page. My name is Ruben and I have been a photographer for a long time. I started this journey when I was 17 years old. Back in the film years as we like to call it. I’ve worked and still work for major studios in Chicago that contract my services and do many wedding under my own label. Please contact me for more information.

G & R Photography was a fantastic choice for our wedding photography. From the beginning, their communication was easy and quick, which put us at ease throughout the planning process. Their work was professional and the value was very affordable, especially given the quality of the photos. On the day of the wedding, they were flexible, considerate, and punctual, helping to ensure everything ran smoothly. We're thrilled with the beautiful photos that captured all the special moments of our big day.

I cannot say enough good things about Josh Newton.

I have been shooting professionally for nearly ten years throughout Indiana--though I am very eager to travel with my camera! I bring a creative, moody vibe to my photographs that aim to tell your story in it's own unique beauty. I love helping tell & creating stories, and have held various day jobs from newspaper reporter to behavioral therapist. I know that my job touches almost as heavily in service as it does in the arts, and utilize all of my qualities to work with all of your vendors so that YOU have the best day possible!

Kelly is a dream photographer for a planner like me. After meeting at a bridal show, she approached me to help her get a styled shoot idea she had for years executed and it was such a dream and honor to be asked. Kelly is very easy to communicate with while knowing just when to (kindly and graciously) take charge and run the show to let her work shine through. She presented her ideas clearly with flexibility to let my style and touch shine through. I am positive she would be any couples dream to work with on their big day. Cannot recommend her enough!!

I document love for a living, and what drives me is capturing authenticity in the moments that I am privileged to become a part of with my clients. I've been photographing weddings for over a decade. I know how to make you look good, and how to take away the "overwhelmed" fake vibe most couples feel and replace it with meaningful photos in 1/250 of a second.

With the day just being insane. There were so many times Kay checked in on me which made me to make sure I was okay, really made me take a breath throughout the day and made me feel special. We did our engagement pictures at a brewery and she was super creative with the pictures. For our wedding day I sent her my Pinterest board and she went for all the pictures I wanted. I’m so excited to see what they all look like. Even her second shooter seemed like she was everywhere. Start to finish the whole process was so easy to work with Kay. With so many vendors having one you vibe with is important and it was all there. 10/10 recommend her, & the team she has.

Love! Flowers! Cute couples! Cake! The very reason I love photographing weddings is the beautiful moments between two people committing to each other. All of the other details are just the icing on the cake.

My company has flow her in annually, for the last 6 years to capture professional headshots, apparel/website photos and provide photography trainings. Personally, she has captured the excitement of our new puppy, a maternity session and a memorial service for my grandfather at Arlington National Cemetery. She's captured the magic or our wedding day and countless family photos. For each occasion, Joy has been incredibly professional, superb with communication and manages to shoot every pivotal moment with grace and efficiency. There is no photographer who can compare to Joy; she's our photographer for life!

Shawnee was an unbelievable photographer and such a special part of our wedding weekend. From the moment we reached out to her to getting our pictures, she has been incredibly communicative, easy to work with, and deeply kind. She made us feel so at ease and taken care of at our Rehearsal Dinner and on our wedding day. She not only allowed us to be our fullest selves but also encouraged capturing us in ways that felt authentic and not stuck in expected wedding photos or gender roles. She captured our guests so beautifully too, particularly the kids who were in our wedding. Everyone's personalities shone through so wonderfully and the picture are absolutely stunning. We cannot believe how many and how incredible each and every photo is. We cannot recommend Shawnee enough!

Hi! We are Mark and Ligia Chiu- a Chicago based photography/videography husband/wife team. I started Ligia Chiu Photography about 10 years ago when I was searching for a creative outlet during my very science courses of pharmacy school. What started as a simple hobby capturing moments for my close friends, soon blossomed into something more profound and my passion for photography has grown steadily over the years.

We knew the moment we got engaged that we wanted Ligia Chiu to be our wedding photographer! She took the time to understand our vision for the wedding, scouted out potential locations beforehand, and guided us every step of the way. Right away, Ligia surprised us by asking for a list of "must-have" photos. She was all about capturing our moments. On the day itself, she had this incredible ability to make everyone feel comfortable and relaxed. When we received the photos, it was like reliving the entire day, but with the added bonus of Ligia's artistic eye. She has a true talent for capturing the essence of the day and the personalities of everyone involved. We HIGHLY recommend Ligia Chiu to anyone looking for an exceptional wedding photographer!
