Springfield, IL
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Oak Park, IL

Hi, I’m Teri! I’m a Chicago based Wedding Photographer. I approach my photography as an artistic craft. I strive to create images that are emotional and striking. My life’s work is photographing people’s most joyous moments—preserving feelings and details that may otherwise be lost. I am obsessed with creating playful compositions, capturing fleeting moments that make the most treasured memories come alive again. The couples I work with place immense trust in me and it is my honor to create art for them.

Teri was amazing, she got amazing posed and candid photos of our day and the turn around time for our pictures was very quick! She was as even able to work with the poor weather we had to get beautiful fog filled pictures and take advantage of the blue cast at sunset! Would highly recommend her to any and everyone!

DJ is amazing. She’s so sweet and easy to work with. She really adapts to the couple and it shows through her work. We were nervous to do our engagement shoot and she made us as comfortable as we could be. The photos we received made us so happy to relive the session. We can not wait to have her for our special day in June!

Alaura Creative

Chicago, IL
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,900

My name is Alaura, and I am a Chicago-based photographer with a love of great art, true stories, and old-school glamour. I believe in romanticizing everyday life for the joy of it. For me, that means fine teacups on a Wednesday, bouquets for no reason, and a home full of antiques. This also translates to my photography style!

Working with Alaura was nothing short of perfect! Our pictures turned out better than we could have ever hoped for. We felt so comfortable with her for our solo shots and our families have raved about how well she integrated into our small, intmate day. It was the best day of my life and our pictures I think display that so well.

Awarded Best of Zola
Cristina is too wonderful for words! She is an absolute joy to work with and her photos are beyond stunning. Neither my husband nor I have any idea what we’re doing in front of a camera, and Cristina could not have been kinder or more patient with us during both our engagement photos and wedding day. We brought along our dog for our engagement photos, and Cristina never batted an eye during his less-than-cooperative moments. She made the engagement photo session a complete breeze and so much fun from start to finish. Her partner, Constantin, joined for the wedding day, and they made the most incredible photography duo. They captured all the important moments and ensured that we got every last photo we wanted. They also handled corralling everyone for large family photos in an extremely timely and orderly fashion. They’re both so lovely, fun to work with, and take the most incredibly beautiful photos! I could not recommend Cristina (and Constantin!) more highly.

Chicago, IL
  • Fine art style

I made a conscious decision early on in my career that I wanted to LOVE what I do and do what I love. With a bachelor’s degree in graphic design and photography you could say I’m one of the few that stuck with my major and still love it to this day. I’m a helpless romantic, a wife, a mother, a worldwide traveler a marathon runner and a wedding photographer. Deciding who will bring your memories to life is one of your most important ones. When the whirlwind and excitement of the day is over, beautifully captured images will be what help you revisit the romance, emotion and spirit of all of those little moments.

Christine was an absolute dream to work with! Shortly after booking Christine for our November 2, 2019 wedding we scheduled our engagement shoot with her - during the shoot we knew we hit the jackpot. Christine was calm, cool, and so easy to be around - she provided super easy direction and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We couldn't wait to spend our wedding day with her! Christine was incredibly organized throughout our planning process. Leading up to the wedding day she created a very thorough timeline for the day - which was necessary given the size of our bridal party and families and the logistics of the day. Everything ran so smoothly on wedding day and Christine captured all the shots we wanted - our families and bridal party loved working with her too. And, of course, our photos are absolutely stunning! We couldn't be happier with our experience - thank you, Christine!!

Those memories are all we have from the anchors that built us. Photos are proof that we have lived

Hi, I’m Bri! I can drink margaritas like it's my job and get down with my bad self to some old school hip-hop. I own too many house plants and I almost always have a messy bun on top of my head. My love languages are physical touch and quality time. I dance a lot in my kitchen whether it be alone, in front of people or for no reason at all. I value honesty and communication above all else so therefore I have a soft spot for people who speak their mind. The way I choose to live my life is simple, by being present in everything I do. This is what I believe to be the key to a happy life.

As a DJ I get to work with a lot of photographers and Bri Short is at the top of my list. I highly recommend!

M28 Photography & Films

5.0

Chicago, IL
  • Fine art style

I’m all about art and creativity. I absolutely love photography and capturing moments for families and couples. It means a lot to have people appreciate your work and cherish it because it means a lot to them. It’s also cool to have clients who not only enjoy my work with M28 but also become a fan of my own personal projects. I am an activist in every sense of the word. I advocate for issues that speak out against injustices and inequality in an attempt to make the world better for our children.

The Summerset team is the warmest and most professional team. We were nervous about finding a photographer we felt comfortable with, since my husband and I are on the shy side when it comes to photos. Since meeting Mack at a wedding event, we were instantly drawn to working with them. Since then, each person from their team that we worked with was incredible. The process starts off with a call where they get to know you and based on what you are looking for and wanting, they match you with a photographer that is a good fit. And they did such a great job matching us. We worked with Dominique as our lead photographer and had so much fun with her at our engagement shoot and on our wedding day. For our wedding we worked with Dominique and Marcus for photography and Mack as our content creator. They made us feel comfortable and made sure we had fun throughout our wedding. Not only that, but they brought incredible energy. As an added challenge for them, we also have incredibly camara shy family memebers that they were able to take out of their shells and made incredibly comfortable. After spending just few minutes with the team, us and our families were comfortable posing and taking photos, as they almost make you forget there is a camara there. It has only been a few days and because we had the content creator package, we already got an amazing video and previews of our photos. We have no doubt all of our photos will be incredible, and the videos that were captured were so special. They were able to find moments for us to connect with one another in the midst of a lot of activity. Could not recommend them enough.

Chicago, IL

I never take lightly the incredibly humbling role which my clients entrust me to. It is my job to not only document once-in-a-lifetime moments and emotions but to do so in an artful and romantic manner. My favorite is gallery delivery day when my clients and their families are able to relive the sentiment they felt on the wedding day! Gallery delivery day often results in joyful, tearful calls of thanks and this is the most rewarding feeling in the world!

The photos and video we received from Bonphotage were everything we hoped they would be and more. They will certainly be shared and hung on our walls for years to come. The photographers and videographer were extremely friendly and helpful, offering amazing guidance on how to get the best shots and angles. Ultimately they captured the magic of the day so well that looking at the photos is like reliving the wedding all over again! The finished product was worth every penny we paid.

Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

What started out as a hobby, evolved into a great passion. With a camera on hand for every event, I spent my lunch money as a young kid developing films at the photo store. I became so fond of capturing as many organic moments as I can in photographs and fell in love with the idea of telling people's stories in images rather than words. I started venturing into professional photography right after my own wedding to my high school sweetheart, Erick, which was back in 2014. I LOVE everything wedding-related. My favorite to photographs are the wedding details, the bride and groom portraits and anything that will make me either cry or laugh!

Awarded Best of Zola
I don't even know where to start...Michelle was such a huge part of our wedding! Not only did she capture every perfect moment, she stepped up in so many ways for us. We had to postpone our wedding a full year due to Covid. Once we finally got closer to the date, we were on zoom calls with Michelle and my wedding planner going through the most detailed timeline. The timeline was so important to us. Michelle went the extra mile and came to my mom's house on the Saturday before our wedding to capture all of our "detail" shots, and of course snapped a few of us and our puppy Charlee! The pictures turned out amazing and I am so happy she gave us the extra time to take her time and capture these beautiful images. We had so much more time in the morning for getting ready pictures and I NEVER felt rushed during the day. I gave Michelle a huge task of capturing many family pictures and she executed this so perfect! Despite the rain rain rainnyyyy day we had, Michelle still captured some beautiful pictures of my husband and I outside which we are so grateful for. Michelle and Erik are amazing! AMAZING! Our wedding would not have been what it was without them. They took our timeline and helped to keep everything moving so smoothly! I remember asking at one point "how are we doing on time?" and I was told "we are actually 6 min ahead of schedule". It was the most perfect day. Everyone say's how the day fly's bye. I didn't have that feeling once. I felt like it was the longest day in the best way possible! I remember every moment and felt present the whole time, along with got that time for my husband and I to take in and enjoy the day for us! I don't think I would have had the same experience if it weren't for Michelle. She is amazing at what she does and goes above and beyond. We are FOREVER grateful for her and she has not seen the last of us. Thank you again Michelle and Erik! You guys have a very special place in our hearts. Love, Tony & Kelly

I am driven to capture wedding days in a purposefully artful, poetic, way – softly directing my couples into the most beautiful light and choosing compositions that highlight their love story. It is vital to give couples the time and encouragement to let go and be themselves. Couples wedding photos should feel like art – pieces they will hang on their walls and look at with awe. My work is heavily influenced by the romance and evocative emotion expressed in a ballet which leads me to create photographs that artfully express the feeling of ones wedding day through the play of movement and light.

Awarded Best of Zola
Reyna was beyond amazing. First off, our photos are spectacular and timeless. She was able to capture such special moments that are difficult, like when we were dancing at the reception or hugging our family after the ceremony. Our couple photos were filled with laughs and movement, and she made us look beautiful. Even our photos, even the family and wedding group photos, came out natural and soft. Secondly, Reyna is so kind, understanding, wonderful to work with. We benefited from her experience and guidance, all the while keeping our wishes intact. Hands down, best find of our wedding!

Awarded Best of Zola
If you’re looking for someone to make you feel your absolute best, super comfortable, and give some direction - you’re in the right place. Nicole and I would not have been happier with the choice to book Steve for our engagement/wedding photos and video. We were nervous and uncomfortable with posing and stressing out about how we would look in our photos, but he did his absolute best to make it super fun and stress free. We look at these photos and are still in shock at how beautiful we felt and how much fun we had. He communicated with us every step of the way and took the time to understand and execute our vision. We wanted a couples handshake stop motion … seems a little out there, right? Well … he made it happen and I’m still crying over it today. We had a few photos to swoon over as soon as a few hours later(to hold us over), and the rest came super quickly as well. I could go on and on, but I think you get the point. There is only one answer here - book Steve for your photo & video needs if you’re looking for the best experience out there

A POET WITH A CAMERA IN HER HAND: I’m Ayla — pronounced “eye-luh”, like “I love you” — and I never quite grew out of seeing things the way I did as a kid: heart first, bright eyed, curious about everything and particularly drawn to movement and pretty light. My travels, my writing (certified art school kid), and my big family have brought me from that inquisitive, emotional child to the woman I am today: knee deep in wonder & riverbeds, usually mid-laugh, and so full of gratitude for my life I can hardly contain it to language.

I’m a little late on my review, my husband and I got married dec.30,22 and we came across Ayla through another photographer that wasn’t available and let me tell you that was the best thing that could’ve happened for us! To be genuinely honest Ayla is one of the most caring, kind and considerate people I’ve ever met. She worked with us with our budget and tried to make things the least stressful she could for us through the whole wedding process and on top of all of that the pictures were BEYOND AMAZING! She worked with so much Patience with my huge family and was just so much more than we ever could’ve hoped for. And did both digital and film for us both for engagement photos and wedding. If I could leave her more stars I would! Don’t keep looking for another photographer just book Ayla

Hey there! Kataryna here. Thanks for checking out my work. I never thought that I would have the opportunity to meet you and everyone else that I have throughout my photography journey. I started photography in high school and fell in love with all that my camera and I could do. In my college years at the University of Iowa, I was able to strengthen my photography skills by taking an internship with a wedding company. Shortly after graduation, I moved back to the Chicago suburbs and began growing my business. A few years later, and I am extremely grateful for everything I have been able to accomplish. ​

What can I say about Kat? She is easy to work with, flexible, professional, creative, and overall incredible to work with! Kat was able to work with us to find a package that fit our needs. During the planning process she was excellent at communicating, responsive to my questions, and open to all my ideas! The day of, Kat and her second shooter Emma arrived early and were a breeze to work with. Kat clearly has a incredibly creative eye and utilized our photo location and my dress so well! Kat had a combo of posed shots and capturing perfect candids. We received our preview photos promptly and our album in a very timely manner. If you are looking for a quality photographer, look no further. Kat Beatty is the way to go!

I love photographing weddings. Between my second photographer and myself, we have photographed over 2,000 weddings. You can rest assured that your wedding images will be amazing and you will treasure them for a lifetime.

I've known Ian for over 16 years in the wedding photography industry. Not only is he an exceptional, skilled, and seasoned photographer, but he's also been a great mentor and friend. As a fellow professional photographer, I've worked side by side with Ian, shooting several weddings over the past several years. If I have a question about a new camera gadget, lens, or lighting equipment or need advice with my own wedding photography business, Ian is on speed dial. I chose Ian to photograph my wedding in Southern California. Right from our initial consultation, Ian impressed me with his professionalism and passion for his craft. He took the time to listen to my vision for the day and offered valuable insights and suggestions to ensure that every moment would be captured beautifully. Ian and his team were super easy to work with on my wedding day. They were punctual and organized, making everyone feel at ease in front of the camera. Their friendly demeanor and calming presence helped alleviate pre-wedding jitters, allowing Julie and I to relax and enjoy every moment. His incredible talent and experience behind the lens sets Ian's Photography apart. He has a unique ability to capture the emotion and essence of each moment, resulting in stunning photographs that we will treasure for a lifetime. Whether the tender moments shared during the ceremony or the spontaneous laughter on the dance floor, Ian and his team captured it all with artistry and precision. In addition to his exceptional skill as a photographer, Ian also went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was perfect. They were proactive in scouting out the best locations for photos, and their attention to detail in composing each shot was truly remarkable. Let's face it, unless you're a professional model, posing in front of the camera could seem daunting. Ian gave us perfect directions before each shot was taken. We didn't have to think about looking awkward in front of the camera. Ian was there to guide us every step of the way. When we received our wedding photos, we were blown away (as expected) Each image was a work of art, telling the story of our special day in the most beautiful way possible. Our friends and family have been raving about the photos ever since, and we couldn't be happier with the results. Overall, I cannot recommend Ian Borgerhoff Photography highly enough. If you're looking for a wedding photographer who is not only talented but also passionate, professional, and genuinely invested in making your day unforgettable, look no further than Ian and his team. You won't be disappointed.

She has the most beautiful soul and she’s so outgoing and her laughter is contagious. Anyways, beyond all these amazing qualities her talent is beyond perfection.

I started my business when I was just 17 years old. Since then I have turned that small hobby into a full time career photographing beautiful couples love stories. Throughout my 8 years in business, I have been lucky enough to photograph over 200 weddings throughout Georgia and the other southern states.

As a wedding officiant, I have the pleasure of working with so many different vendors, photographers in particular, and I can honestly say that Taylor is one of the best! Working with her is always fabulous! Her professionalism, creativity, and dedication to capturing perfect moments and special details are second to none. She puts couples at ease with her easy going nature which helps them to relax around her and act naturally, in turn allowing her to capture a variety of gorgeous shots. During the ceremony itself, she blends seamlessly into the background while effortlessly capturing the essence of the heart of the ceremony. So much so that, as the officiant, I am unaware that she is even there which I think is a perfect approach for that particular part of the wedding day! Taylors work is truly beautiful and her commitment to ensuring her couples have the best possible photography experience attention to detail and commitment to excellence makes her a standout choice for any wedding or special event.

Behind the camera: I am cracking bad jokes & cramming myself into strange spaces to get the shot. Behind the editing screen: I am smiling, getting high off the emotion of the moment captured. No shame, it’s why I do what I do. I love love. But I guess that's why you are here right? My style: Authentic, timeless, classic & filmy nostalgia. I capture those in-between moments, the messy, the loud, the intimate & the joyful ugly cry. Then you can feel like vogue for every other moment to show the world the rockstars that you are.

What you can't see is her empathetic, fun, & take-charge approach. While we were getting ready, she was scoping out locations, coordinating with the hotel manager and our guests, and taking detail photos. When it was time for our couples photos, her positive energy and confidence as the inflection point from when I went from being anxious and stressed to finally feeling excited and starting to have fun. She engaged us in ways so she could capture the beautiful and genuine moments between my wife and I."

I am a caffeine addict who never sleeps. I love a good thunderstorm and playing Candy Crush for the brain breaks. I adore all kinds of dogs, but I have a special love for German Shepherds. My all-time favorite thing is to sit by the fire with a glass of good cabernet or watch the ocean waves hit the beach. I love to garden and to build things (but I let my husband to finish all my projects LOL). I enjoy good food and will likely refer to a stand up comedy routine at least once in a conversation. I am also a football mom, lacrosse mom and basketball mom. Wife to a very understanding husband and emotional support person for my big puppies.

I catered a wedding for which Silvia Gilbert was the wedding photographer. She communicated with everyone very clearly on timelines. She was very professional and efficient and made everyone feel at ease. I would gladly work with Silvia again.

We are two best friends creating memories with our cameras! We are passionate wedding photographers who strive to capture the special moments that will stay with you forever. We are catching the dreams, we are catching the lights.

I’ve worked alongside andres/lights wedding photography multiple times and it is such an honor to work alongside him!!! He has a calm demeanor, gets shots that are TRULY works of art, and is amazing at instructing couples in what to do. He also works amazingly with vendors, and was always making sure we were staying out of each others way and working as a team. By far my favorite vendor to work alongside. You would be lucky to hire him as your wedding photographer!

There’s something to be said about understanding another person. Sometimes you experience it in conversation. You know the feeling: interactions that leave you and that other person thinking, wow; we just said the Exact. Same. Thing. But if you’re lucky it’ll go deeper; understanding that person so much that you begin to anticipate what they may say or do. It's what makes our partnership so strong. As brothers, we understand each other, and we feel it shows in our work. But our greatest joy comes from sharing our work with you. To have all the memories of your day come flooding back to you in waves is magical, and it never gets old.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our entire experience from start to finish was amazing. We received exactly what we wanted in out wedding photos as well as quite a few unique ideas that they came up with based on our personalities. Brighton and Basette were professional and fun! Their presence felt more like family than it did a vendor. In addition to our experience, the quality of our photos was beyond exceptional! They have unique style that made our photos stand out against the traditional style. They have a way of capturing natural emotions and not making things look posed or unnatural. You will have your expectations met and exceeded in choosing Brighton and Basette Photography!

A Charleston Wedding Photographer with a fierce love for storytelling, fostering memories and capturing those moments that you will want to treasure forever. I get to tell your story. And, I think that’s pretty cool. I love traveling everywhere and anywhere, talking with my hands, buying plants (and attempting to keep them alive), and spending as much time as I can with my loved ones. I have lived in Boston, Paris, and New York City, and am now lucky enough to call Charleston home, while also still traveling the world for my clients. You can usually find me on my back porch in downtown Charleston, right next to my favorite little park.

Jessica is a joy to have a part of any wedding! Her work is beautiful and she captures the love and emotions of her couples' biggest day. From the beginning of the planning process, until the photos arrive in your inbox, she always puts the couples' needs and wants as her priority. Her organization, professionalism, and calming composure are exactly what couples need out of their photographer!

At the end of the day, all we have are the stories told about us and the ones we write about ourselves. I love writing about the musings of life and sharing my thoughts with others in conversation and social media posts. I constantly document my own life so I don't forget the big or little moments. Every time I travel to somewhere new I love connecting with those who cross my path, and yet I equally love coming home to my dog. TLDR: sentimental soul, avid movie goer, mental health advocate, and decent chocolate chip cookie maker.

Rachael was our photographer for our September 2023 wedding. There is no question that she was the absolute best person we could have had for such a special day. From beginning to end Rach helped us plan and execute our vision. We were not using a wedding planner, so she helped us get a lot of details and timelines on track. She also made sure we had fun and were able to relax through the whole process. On our wedding day Rach showed up ready to go and excited for a fun day. She captured so many beautiful moments between our first look, moments with family, ceremony, and reception. She also gifted us a moment alone to talk and take in the day just the two of us - it was so special and intimate. I will always cherish the memories and details she captured for us. Rachael also did our engagement shoot a few months before the wedding and those photos are so incredibly breathtaking. Some people have such a talent and artistry in what they do and Rachael is one of those people. If you are looking for someone who will become your friend, make you feel beautiful, and most importantly capture these special moments in a way that brings back every emotion of life and love when you look back at the photos, we 10000% recommend Rachael.

Hi there, my name is Jen El-Haddad! I am the lead photographer and owner of "Jennifer Mary Photography". I specialize in lifestyle photography and portraits! I started this business almost a decade ago, as a Photography/Computer Digital Imagery student at Shepherd University (Go Rams!) with a dream to share the artistic joy with others. However, life seemed to have a different plan. I slowly moved into the corporate world and lost touch with my creative side. After lots of soul searching and a 7-year hiatus, I found my love for photography (again.

Jen was amazing! Prior to our wedding we booked our engagement photos with Jen, so we could practice poses. I had a very particular lighting style, and Jen listened to my wishes and used the most amazing light angles and edited the photos in the was I had asked for. Prior to the wedding we had phone calls and meetings to make sure we had a set list of the photos I wanted, so that the day of nothing would be missed and it was stress free. Wedding day Jen captured every moment from getting ready, to the ceremony, family portraits, couples photos and even dances at the reception. Jen is kind, caring, respectful and professional. She was truly a joy to work with and I am in love with my wedding photos! I highly recommend booking your wedding, engagement or any pictures with this lovely photographer!

Fueled by equal parts strong coffee and French 75's, I spend my days capturing the kinds images that convey distinctive emotion through intentional moments and create elevated images you'll treasure for a lifetime. I showcase your story and love in an exceptional gracious way. I believe in real moments, heartfelt conversations, love stories that grow stronger through the storms and the kind of joy that can be found in the simplest of moments. When I'm not tearing up during the vows you'll find me in the kitchen whipping up a new recipe, dancing to Sinatra with my husband, or snuggling with my mini me.

Working with Rohana was one of the best experiences. She was fun, professional, hilarious, and prepared. Her photos were incredible. She was an essential aspect of the wedding team.

I'm wholeheartedly committed to ensuring that each of my couples has their precious moments meticulously captured, preserving memories that will endure for years to come. My purpose is to authentically narrate your unique love story, exactly as it unfolds.

My husband and I can't sing our praises enough for Cassandra! From beginning to end working with her was a dream. We instantly clicked with her when we had our consultation and we knew we had to have her apart of our day. When we had our engagement session that assured us that we chose the right photographer for our day. The images we received from our session were just beautiful and really captured our love for one another. Everything leading up to our wedding was wonderful and she was extremely helpful as we ran into some hiccups with other vendors and she was there to help us find someone just as amazing. The day of our wedding was better than we could have dreamed. Our vendor team was amazing, Cassandra took care of everything and some, she keep us on our timeline, made the day so enjoyable but also took charge so I wouldn't be stressed out. She is so talented and not only an amazing photographer, but a life long friend now. Thank you so much for giving us photos to cherish for the rest of our lives and giving us the most wonderful experience. We love you!

I have studied fine art photography long before I ever started taking portraits of other people and shooting weddings. Fine art photography was my beginning, creating conceptual and authentic art that spoke to me and told my story was what I started with and then I started blurring that line between fine art and documentary. I started documenting other people and their lives in the same way that I created my own work intended for shows and galleries. That is how I came to the style that I shoot now, still blending the two parts of my life.

Alas, a film photographer was born in the streets of Europe somewhere in the early 2000's, one who had a keen eye for detail and an appreciation for fashion.
