Hebron, IN
  • Photojournalistic style

🌺 I create vibrant, emotional, dreamy photos for couples who want to savor every moment, but don't want to feel uncomfortable, overly-posed, or awkward in front of a camera🌿✨️ 📍 Chicagoland-based, but always traveling, both for work and fun✈️

If you're thinking about booking with Nina, do it!! I have known Nina for years, and she has done many shoots for our family. We've used her for engagement, maternity, and our daughters first birthday photos. Each session has been nothing short of amazing. She has always been great with communication and her attention to detail is beautiful. We get so many compliments on her photos. She was fantastic at getting people posed for our daughters first birthday, as well as working with our daughter. She has always been so patient and willing to listen to my ideas, then does her best to make them happen. I have never been disappointed when working with Nina, and we look forward to having many more memories captured by her.

Hi there! We are Tyler and Emily, the husband + wife duo behind Hello Rose Photography. Tyler is big picture, Emily is all details. He is the person at weddings keeping the schedule on track and making every person laugh, smile, feel good.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I had TWA for our wedding in October of 2020 and I can't express enough how amazing they were to work with. We weren't sure what our wedding plans would look like during that time and plans changed multiple times. I never once worried about their flexibility and understanding. On our wedding day our team of photographers were amazing and captured every moment, big or little, beautifully. Our second photographer was able to get my husband out of his shell and feel comfortable with having someone taking his pictures all day. If you are considering TWA, you won't regret having them as part of your wedding day!

We are traveling wedding photographer and videographer. For 2024, we have 70+ weddings booked in 21 different states. Our shooting style is photojournalistic, natural, CINEMATIC to traditional. Our editing and style depends. Very easygoing and flexible depending on the client's preference. Our team is dedicated in delivering memories.

We decided to do a last minute baby moon in the Miami area. I wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to get a photoshoot. However, I was a bit worried about finding a photographer on short notice, especially between Christmas and New Years. I reached out to several photographers and Ledd Lens was the only company that promptly responded, replying to me within ten minutes, From the very start of our conversation, Andre was exceptionally professional, responsive, and approachable. He was very flexible with my last minute request and accommodating to my asks. I knew right away that he would be a fantastic choice. When the day came the weather did not cooperate and Andre was able to flex his schedule to a time that was not rainy, which was much appreciated. He assured me that this would be a positive experience regardless of the weather. And the photo shoot went fantastic! His ability to choreograph and capture a scene is unparalleled. You could feel the enthusiasm and passion he has for his work, and that is reflected in the final product. Andre did a great job of quickly editing and delivering the photos. We absolutely love how they turned out and cannot recommend Andre and Ledd Lens enough!

I was looking for a photographer who would understand my vision for our wedding, and who would also be able to add their own artistic style to the photos. Sarah’s photos instantly enchanted me with their blend of romance and realism, and her work did NOT disappoint! Our engagement photos were a magical fall city-scape experience, and our wedding photography (Even the sneak peek) looks absolutely stunning. I will cherish these photos for a lifetime! Her work is sleek, creative, beautiful, and fun. Not at all cheesy or corny. And to top it all off---she is super easy to work with and is fun to have around!

Piero Pierrot Photography

Wheeling, IL
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,600
  • Serves Merrillville, IN

Hi, I’m Piero, lead and wedding photographer, it has been amazing meeting so many couples, with so many stories to tell. I adapt to my couple's wishes so they get their own experience. I don't have a unique photo style, I try to use them all to tell every story, and that helps me capture so many beautiful moments. I capture candid moments as well as helping the couple with their favorite portrait ones. I've been doing weddings all over Illinois, Wisconsin, and Indiana.

Awarded Best of Zola
My wife and I hired Piero for our outdoor fall wedding. We both were not sure what we wanted other than a lot of pictures- neither of us had any idea of any specific types of shots we wanted. Legitimately, we lucked out big time with our photographer choice because Piero is on top of his picture game. We did engagement photos with him and weren't sure of any poses- warning him that we'd need some guidance. He came with a plan, but also was so good with letting ideas unfold organically too. In seconds we were comfortable with his friendly energy and goofy spirit. On our way home after that session we both knew we picked the right guy- and we hadn't seen any photos yet. Within days (so quick) Piero sent us a file of gorgeous engagement photos with so many to choose from. My wife and I did something weird for our wedding- we were married on a Friday with family and close friends and we threw a huge party the next day for the big crowd. We planned it ourselves and hosted on our own property. Needless to say, we were busy up to our eyeballs the months leading up to our big day (weekend lol). We hired Piero for both nights, he took the wheel requiring only a list of people we wanted in pictures, and he crushed it. He made our bridespeople so comfortable creating stunning portraits, he jumped right it on the dance floor with our guests capturing hilarious candid shots, he might have gotten up on our jousting inflatable to catch guests in action, and all in all capture our favorite moments just perfectly. Piero is professional yet fun, good at planning and going with the flow, and he will represent your event exactly as it was. He has all of the plans and all of the backup plans down to a science. Absolutely loved this guy! Don't luck out on your event- hire Piero for certainly perfect pictures!

From getting ready with my sisters to my husband's unforgettable first glance at me, Layne's photographs allow me to endlessly relive that magical day. Additionally, her contagious energy and infectious joy brought much-needed positivity to an otherwise hectic and stressful morning.

Chicago, IL

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.

Union, IL
  • Photojournalistic style

I resonate with intimate, honest weddings, ones that present as unique and authentic, ones with tradition but they threw that tradition out the door and made their day an authentic representation of their marriage. As an artist, I am able to document weddings while incorporating my own artistic visions and yours. I love natural light, nature, and intimate moments. It is important to me for you to trust me as photography is a collaboration.

Megan helped make our incredible wedding day -- the happiest day of our lives -- something we can cherish forever. Her photography not only captured the day's spirit but also all the sudden instances that now help us recall how emotional it was. Her attention to detail and her eye for angles, lighting, and composition are uncanny. We'll look at these photos for years and will forever be thankful to Megan for putting her heart and soul into everything she does, including our wedding. On top of all that, she is absolutely pro: she takes pride in her work and delivers only the best product and service. I could not recommend her any higher.

We are David and Rachel McKissic, the owners and photographers. We have been in business for 9 eventful years in Indianapolis, and beyond. We took a risk with no experience, a love for art, and a love for love. We made this decision after we said "I do". We were going to buy a couch but we opted to chase a dream. We are still chasing that dream and capturing so many amazing moments along the way. We have 3 wonderful children who are the fuel of our lives' drive. I (Rachel) am a lover of detail and David lives life on the edge. Together, we are a complementary couple and you'll definitely sense it when you work with us! Let's connect!

Awarded Best of Zola
We cannot speak highly enough of Rachel and David. They were so chill and amazing during both our engagement and wedding sessions. They were patient and kind in giving us direction and feedback during poses, but also adept at capturing the special off-guard moments. There were able to capture the absolute joy and raw emotion that we and our guests felt on our wedding day, and which we'll now remember forever because of them. We can't wait to work with them again.

AwestrucKen Photography focuses on ensuring great moments in time are caught. As much as we are tech/gear heads with regards to equipment, we also know that the greatest piece of equipment any photographer can have is his/her brain. We pride ourselves on using our brains and our gear to not just take pictures, but to tell stories. While pictures, as Dorothea Lange says, “take an instant out of time; altering life by holding it still”, it’s also important that each instant of time is part of a person or event’s story.

Ken was great from start to finish and was extremely receptive to what we were looking for in terms of a vendor we can jam with and will also be able to work well with our other vendors - it was very important ALL our vendors were people we could consider people we'd call our friends and Ken is just that! Fun, charming, charismatic and creative - you need that in a photographer! We will continue recommending him to our friends and family for years to come 3

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.

100/10 would recommend! Ashley & her partner, Liv, were incredibly easygoing, and downright fun to be around. Ashley took the time to go over how she could capture the moments that were most important to us, our desired aesthetic, and wedding planning timelines/details along the way. During the formal shoots, she guided us in all the right ways, and the organic moments she captured outside of that were thoughtfully executed. She was timely with the edits and the final photo galleries are everything I hoped for (and more). When I say I cannot stop looking at our wedding photos, I’m not exaggerating - they are stellar. We’ve also gotten countless comments from friends and family about how perfectly our wedding day was captured. I was lucky enough to stumble upon the Unabridged Photography website after perusing for wedding photographers in the Chicago area on the Knot; I was struck by how well she captured light, movement and detail (not to mention our mutual love for ABBA discovered in her Bio). I cannot recommend Ashley (and Liv) more highly!

I studied Journalism and photography in 2002 at the Institute of LAINSPROCOM and have been shooting weddings and portraits professionally since 2006. I describe my photography as honest, sincere, and intimate. My primary focus is the beauty and raw emotion in each moment. I love the romance of weddings, I approach each event and each session with attention, honesty, and love. I put my heart and soul into my work.

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.

I absolutely love capture those in between moments with my combination or posed and candid style in photography. I also aim to help my couples as much as I can during the planning process by providing any vendor suggestions they may need as well as creating a timeline to allow the day to flow more smoothly.

There is so many things I can say about my wonderful experience with my photo shoot! Due to COVID my husband and I just got married at the court house and all I wanted were some beautiful photographs. I found Brenda through a random search on Instagram and I fell in love with her work. I’m so lucky that I found her. From the moment I contacted Brenda she was SO informative. I was impressed at her location guide with SO many places not too far from me. When I met Brenda in person at the photo shoot she was so sweet and passionate about how and where to pose us. Her personality is great! My husband prefers to speak Spanish so I was happy that Brenda was able to explain how to pose us in Spanish. I highly recommended Brenda for any photo shoot you want to have and I will definitely be booking her for future events.

I didn’t get into the wedding industry because I was the little girl dreaming of my wedding day. I love story-telling, I love love, and I love people who want to laugh and have a great time because they realize that life is short and beautiful. Wedding photography is all of those things at once; every time I go to work it’s the best day of someone’s life. How cool is that?

I stumbled across AJ on TikTok after another creator I followed tagged her in something, and let me tell you, that was the best click I’ve ever made. AJ talks often about her “daisy chains” (people who book and rebook for progressive life events) and it’s so clear why her clients are so loyal. We had her take our engagement pictures and also document our welcome party and wedding. She has such a great eye for the perfect, unique shot, but even the expected photos came out incredible. She was at a little higher price point than some of the photographers I looked at, less expensive than others, but I will tell you she was worth every single penny I paid her. She also is just a wonderful person to work with – she did a great job putting us at ease in every interaction, facilitating our personalities really coming out in the photos, and was just funny, and personable, and kind. My guests repeatedly (and well after the wedding was over) made a point to tell me how much they liked her and how comfortable she made them. I will also tell you that I am not terribly comfortable with myself and particularly being photographed and she not only made me calm the heck down but she helped me to be comfortable enough that she got absolutely stunning photos. 10/10, definitely hire her, and let this be a lesson in trusting your gut when TikTok leads you down a rabbit hole to the perfect person for the job.

I am a New England Elopement photographer. As a hopeless romantic, moments of deep connection are my oxygen and I am made of the feels. I live for the unconventional. I will be so much more than your wedding photographer, I will be your guide, your biggest fan, and the curator of your love story— I will also be the one tearing up from behind my lens as I listen to your vows. Wanderlust runs through my veins, I have made it my life’s mission to let every place I have ever been touch my heart and change the way I see the world. There is no adventure too wild or out there, the world is our oyster.

Working with Danielle cannot be any easier! As a wedding vendor myself, it was essential to find a photographer that aligned with my brand, provided high-quality photographs, and is communicative. Danielle ticks every box, and then some! Her presence is fun and inviting, and she captures my wedding stationery and signage PERFECTLY every single time! Danielle continues to go above and beyond, and is an absolute pleasure to work with.

Austin was a great fill-in for his photography friend, Brooke, who was our original photographer chosen while she was on maternity leave! Austin showed up exactly on time and ready to work the day of our wedding. With the craziness of the day, a couple things had to change before the ceremony and our reception ran just a little behind schedule but he was great in adapting to our changes and quick on his feet with coming up with great shots! His prices and quality are phenomenal!! He got our photos back to us quickly and they were super easy to share with family! Thanks for being so awesome Austin!!

*****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.

Madi is *just the best* - she was unbelievably kind, professional, warm and caring from the moment we started the process with her. We didn’t really know what a photographers role was in a wedding and she was so helpful in mapping out how and where we would take photos, a timeline for the whole day and then made sure we stuck to it. The day of - she went above and beyond to make sure we got incredible shots and also make sure other logistics were in order too. Everyone at our wedding still talks about how amazing she was! Finally, she process our photos SO FAST and was captured so much love and joy of our day.

I believe you can't stand behind your business unless you can say you fully understand it – and 24 years of marriage is proof that I KNOW LOVE. I set out to capture the essence of love when I started Parker Photography in 2018. I have been married to my best friend for the last 24 years, and people who meet us swear we are newlyweds. We still act like lovestruck teenagers with each other, that same feeling we get from every newly engaged couple that we meet. We know where our couples are coming from and what they hope to capture in their engagement sessions and on their wedding day, and we make it effortless for them to achieve their goals.

Deb and her team did an absolutely amazing job with our wedding pictures in April 2021. The pictures are so beautiful and did a great job of capturing our day.

I have had a love for creating for as long as I can remember. When I was little, I drew everything as I saw it and I think that's why photography feels so perfect. It's an absolute dream to be an artist by trade and capturing special moments is a job I take to heart.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kindred Light has a way of capturing the moments you can't plan. Any photographer can capture those planned shots - those do not speak to their ability. Danielle has an eye and ability to capture the moments that speak the emotions without words, sounds, or captions. Being able to capture personality, emotion, expression, desire, and intent is something rare to find. Being able to have those moments/memories capture from our weddings is something we are forever grateful for! There is not a monetary value that you can put to those moments/memories!!!

She was very professional, took in a few of the things that I really wanted to capture and took them to a new level, and ultimately photographed our wedding better than I could have imagined. She was extremely reasonable in price. I am definitely booking her again when we get pictures done.

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!

I contacted Kate sometime in November to take photos of my proposal to my then-girlfriend, Morgan. Kate was super easy to work with from the start. She listened to my ideas and gave great input to help me nail down my plan. When the day came, she got the candid photos seamlessly and they turned out great. She was so enthusiastic and happy and it made the shoot a fun time. All of our friends and family love how the final album turned out. I would definitely keep Kate at the top of my list for any future photography needs.

Hey there! My name is Angelina and I started practicing photography in August 2020, but I've had an interest in it since I was 13 years old (I really wanted to shoot for National Geographic). Now I've expanded into portraits, engagement sessions, and I've done small weddings. I'm a Chicago native but I've also lived in Iowa, Arizona, Nebraska, & Texas. What can I say, I enjoyed a somewhat nomadic lifestyle. I have recently moved back to Illinois in the town of Channahon. My style of photography is more documentary-esque. Either way, I enjoy conceptualizing with clients to find what works for you!

Angelina was such a breath of fresh air. You all know how stressful hosting events can be let alone having a wedding! She came early to the venue which calmed my nerves, and made genuine connections with everyone to produce some of the best photos. What I appreciated most was her professionalism and authenticity.
