Lavinia + Louise Co.
Effingham, IL
  • Editorial style

Oh hey! It's me - Britney Walters-Chester. I’m a photographer and videographer now based out of Effingham, Illinois, after moving back home at the start of 2021. Lavinia + Louise was started between two friends in Ames, Iowa in 2018 - Lydia and Britney (the dynamic duo!). We were two friends who bonded over our love of rock climbing, jumping around at concerts, bashing on every season of The Bachelor (we secretly love it, and we know you do too), investing too much mental energy into board games, and watching videos of puppies try to walk upstairs for the first time.

Patrycja worked as a photographer for my wedding in January 2023 and I really couldn't be more grateful for the beautiful photos she took and how she was able to capture every moment of the most important day of my life. Communication with her is very easy, she also listens to what you want and you can work as a team with her. He was punctual and responsible with the delivery of her photos.

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.

We found Love Knot Photography last winter while wedding planning. There were a few things we noticed right off the jump which gave us confidence that we had found our wedding photographer. 1) they were extremely thoughtful in helping us plan our wedding day schedule and what we wanted to prioritize 2) the natural style, colors and joy captured in the photos is exactly what we like 3) after looking at the packages and comparing, they are a tremendous value 4) composition and storytelling is massively important and Love Knot is at the top in these departments 5) their command of lighting is masterful After working with the team, we found our first impressions to be accurate, as our expectations were met and exceeded. Love Knot Photography is definitely the best choice.

Hey there! My name is Maggie, and I am the Owner + Lead Photographer at Desert Luna Photography! I am 24 years old, and just had MY dream wedding myself! We had a small destination wedding in Arizona! I have taken photos with a camera since I was 10 years old - and have even won a few awards for one of my photos! I love the outdoors, chicken strips, being a plant momma, and creating magic through my lens! I am currently on year 5 of taking photos professionally, and on year 3 of being known as Desert Luna Photography!

Awarded Best of Zola
If you're looking for a photographer for engagement pictures, a wedding photographer, or a photographer for any other occasion - stop looking! My fiance and I were visiting friends in AZ shortly after our engagement and we booked Maggie for an engagement shoot at sunset while we were there. To say that we are are OBSESSED with our pictures is an understatement. Maggie was so knowledgeable about the lighting at that time of day and utilized the whole landscape to get great pictures with different backgrounds, not JUST different poses from us. We didn't stay in the same spot during the session as she continued to create new angles to adjust to as the sun continued to set. I felt comfortable asking "hey can we try this!?" and Maggie was more than willing to get excited with us about capturing the kind of picture we had in our mind. Maggie also gave us alot of direction on how to maybe tilt our head, or move a hand over a little bit, or recognized that the shot wasn't going to be great so she just scratched it and moved to the next idea. This was extra helpful to me because I didn't have to "guess how to model" and I appreciated that she made good use of her and our time. Maggie works quickly to get a variety of poses and landscapes, is willing to travel, and seems to genuinely love what she does. Her excitement and direction made it fun and exciting for us too! 10/10 for our experience with Maggie!

LT² Photography did a great job at our wedding. LaDonna truly went above and beyond to make sure that we have beautiful memories of our day. I’m so grateful that she encouraged us to get prints and wall art for keepsakes and decor in our home. Since we put our picture on the wall our dining has never looked or felt better. It just feels more like us now. She communicates so well and helped us stay organized and even sent us a budget calculator to help us manage our wedding finances- we didn’t even know we needed a budget tool until we started using it. I wish we hadn’t opted out of their videography service, but she gave us a highlight video anyway! I can’t say enough good things - my husband and I are just so impressed and glad we chose to work with LT2 Photography for our wedding.

We just had our wedding this past Friday, 8/21/20. Covid-19 created a lot of uncertainty on how things would turn out. But, there were 2 things that were certain. We were getting married and Justin was going to be there to capture it. Whether it was at the original venue, a boat, or in a tiny backyard. Justin's enthusiasm is so genuine and infectious. I had a ball with him around just waiting to take photos. Then when we started the joy never stopped. It never felt like we were completing a task, just enjoying life.

We’re Nicole and Michael — a husband and wife team of Chicago wedding photographers and videographers.

If epic photos and videos with your long-lost best friends (that’s us!) is a part of that vision, then let’s get into it.

From the moment we connected with this amazing duo, we knew it was meant to be. Nicole and Michael showed us the perfect amount of professionalism mixed with the ability to be our friends (even though we did not know each other at all), which made all the difference. We felt extremely comfortable with them during all of the steps leading up to the wedding, which in turn, made our actual wedding day that much more enjoyable. They knew we had a "vision" for our big day that we did not want to compromise, and they lived up to it in ways we could not imagine. It's almost been a year since we said "til death do us part" and we are STILL getting compliments on all of the pictures and the video! I can say that we will be forever grateful to have such an amazing day captured by the best there is.

  • Serves Salem, IL

Hi! I'm Kayla - a traveling Milwaukee wedding photographer - and I'm going to make you cry. Wait, what? Don't worry, not in a bad way. Most of my couples say they cry when receiving their wedding photos from me for the first time. Five, ten, fifty years down the road when you open your wedding album, bet I'll get you again. You'll still be surrounded by your loved ones - remembering the happy tears and laughing until your belly hurts - just as you did on your wedding day.

If I could rate Kayla a million stars, I would. She is INCREDIBLE and if you're even thinking about booking her, you should! My wife and I have had the privilege of knowing Kayla since she made the transition to making photography her full-time business. So, once we got engaged and started wedding planning, we knew that we wanted to work with Kayla and man—we were not disappointed. Kayla is so good at her job in the sense that she really takes the time to understand the vibe of each couple, tailoring each session (be it the engagement shoot or the actual wedding) to make sure the pictures are reflective of the couple's style. She also was amazing in terms of helping plan out our day-of schedule. She was so efficient the day-of and she and her team were the best hype-people. When we got our preview back (she's also SO fast), I started bawling again because they are just so beautiful. She captured the emotions, the moments, and the details so perfectly and her editing styling is so dreamy and perfect. I cannot recommend Kayla enough. Not only do we know that we will have beautiful photographs for the rest of our life, but we have a great friend in Kayla now.

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!

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.

I am SO thankful we chose Lissa as our wedding photographer. She is a blast to work with! Will make the most inexperienced photo subjects feel at home in front of the camera. She is so personal and caters her photography to each individual couple. We love that she loves candid photos. Her photography is so bright and full of life. I feel like I’m reliving my wedding day each time I open my wedding album.

Priscilla has had the honor of capturing many beautiful weddings! From Orlando, Mount Dora, Daytona, Jacksonville, St. Augustine to California & Georgia. Every single wedding has allowed me to work with some amazing clients. Weddings allow me to tell a story through my work and that alone makes me smile when YOU trust me to be the eye behind the lens to capture those very important moments that can only be looked back at through photo/video. Once the "I DO's" are said, the champagne is poured, the cake is cut and you have danced the night away, memories and photos are all you will have to remember that very special day!

Awarded Best of Zola
Priscilla is such an amazing person! She goes above & beyond in what she does and it sure does show!!!! She is very professional and very detailed. I have worked at a few different weddings with her and her eye to capturing certain details no one would think of is crazy! The smallest detail turns into a great final product! I promise if you decide to book Amarie J. Photography to photograph your wedding day, you will NOT be disappointed.

Akiem has built a young and successful career as a content creator in the professional sports industry. He has worked with respectable brands including, USA Hockey, USA Soccer, NFL Flag, RISE and more. However, during 2020 COVID put a stop on sports, and that allowed him to discover a new passion- an undeniable love for wedding photography and videography “I want my clients to experience my love for creativity and storytelling through serving them on the most important day of their lives.”

Awarded Best of Zola
My sister-in-law hired Akiem for our wedding photo as a gift for us. The experience was amazing. Not only he was very organized and thorough with the details, he even went to check out the places we are taking pictures beforehand. We were very lucky to work with someone like him that is both professional and passionate.

Miramar, FL

Hi there! We’re Tracey-Ann and Martin, wife and husband photography team, and we’re ready to capture the fun and romance of your wedding day. We’ve been documenting love stories for 14+ years (and happily married even longer!) and, along with beautiful photos, our intention is to infuse your day with pure joy! Partners in life and business, we use our synchronicity to document your day and to capture those special candid moments that make your wedding unique.

I do not write recommendations for many vendors because it is so hard for me to "pick a favorite." But Tracey and Martin are a rare find: they are a couple in love with each other AND the work they do! They put love, light, and professionalism to every project before them. Their talent is obvious in their finished work, but it isn't easy to see all the effort that goes into that finished product. They are the closest to the couple throughout the entire day, and they stop at nothing to give their couples the best experience possible. Their equipment is state of the art, and they capture every precious, fleeting moment. Every couple I have shared with Tracey and Martin simply ADORE them and their talent. They are an exceptional team to capture any special event!

I began, 2017; ‘Editorial Fashion’ working with modeling agencies. Then doing my 1st wedding by request in Taiwan for a Luxury Editorial style wedding. I completely fell in love with wedding imagery and the process that all goes into the experience. From there ‘I’ became ‘we’ as my team grew. Having refined our Luxury Editorial Image over the years!

Britney was helpful in several ways, I couldn’t imagine my wedding day without her! She over delivered! The end results are amazing, literally could not have found a better photographer and group to be there to capture my wedding day. Highly recommend talking with Britney.
