I would highly recommend Merz for any personal or professional event that you are in need of a photographer for. He has done both for me and all of them turned out amazingly. My proposal photos were so great and there were so many moving parts in the plan for the proposal that I was shocked everything worked out so perfectly.

Let's create wedding images with real emotion, story, and intention to them. I know being in front of the camera can be awkward.

These prompts will help you feel comfortable and also help create candid images. Check out my website for more info :)

Because of him, our memories growing up are preserved. Then I got my first camera + tons of film. I documented everything. When film turned into digital, that was a turning point in my life. Since then, my memories, large + small, have been organized on my computer, by year. So I can go back + revisit so many wonderful memories from my life...most which I wouldn't remember without pictures!

I've always been a creative at heart, my own mother is an artist so maybe it's genetic? However, photography was never on my radar. One fateful day, a friend reached out to me requesting engagement photos for her and her love. My iPhone and I were absolutely honored at the opportunity! After the debut of those beautiful, phone quality captures, the inquiries came rolling in! I was pleasantly surprised and within months decided it was only right to invest in proper gear. Officially established in 2021, I've been beyond blessed with the chance to meet so many wonderful people and capture their once in a lifetime moments! Anya Grace 🖤

Anya is a highly talented photographer. I struggle with following simple directions, which may be due to the language barrier as English is not my native language. However, Anya was extremely patient with me. I hired her twice for my wedding and graduation pictures, but I actually worked with her three times, including engagement photos, the wedding, and the graduation shoot. She made me feel like a celebrity in all the pictures. I highly recommend her to everyone.

Hi I'm Kyle, a Chicago based wedding photographer. I am a romantic at heart and a sucker for a love stories. I strive to get to understand my couples and create images that represent them as authentically as possible.

Awarded Best of Zola
1. Kyle is a true professional - A lot of photographers are great at taking photos but bad a business (Project management, sending you reminders, dealing with difficult family members, coordinating with other vendors, etc.). Kyle has a background in business and I can tell. Feels like I would have him on a consulting project. He works on timelines with you. He gives you firm deadlines, good client management skills. 2. Kyle is good at taking photos - Yup, simple but he takes great photos. I won't get into the weeds but he definitely has some dark and moody ones but some with lighter tones. He does your traditional family portraits, fun photos on the dance floor, but he'll mix in some photojournalistic ones and ones you would expect in a magazine. He was quick to edit and send us photos after the wedding. We didn't have to wait too long. 3. Kyle is fun to work with, he's reliable. He made my wife feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the process. That's huge. It's your wedding day and you want to trust someone. Someone like Kyle. 4. He serves as more than a partner throughout the day and months leading up to the wedding than just a photographer. There is a reason he charges a bit more than some other photographers 5. Personality-wise he was a great medium and I liked it. He's not too bold that he takes over the wedding and distracts from your big day, but he's bold enough to tell people what to do and get the right shots he needs. 6. I would recommend him!

We have beautiful photos from our engagement and our “covid take 2” much smaller wedding. Seth and Mary’s eyes see great shots where I couldn’t imagine, their fun demeanor and style gets you to be yourself, and Mary’s ability to wrangle your loved ones for photos is unparalleled - she’s not afraid to get loud, in a good and friendly way, of course.

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 a God send. She made my day feel so special she was so professional and friendly! She made sure to capture a lot of candid moments for us and the poses she suggested didn’t feel awkward or forced. The angles, the editing and the sheer amount of photos shows how much she made my day a priority. Thank you again!

Hang around a photographer long enough, and the phrase “rule of thirds” will probably come up. The idea is to keep your subject away from the center of the frame to create more visual interest, and in a way, that’s how I approach all my photo sessions: keeping things ever so left of center. If you need a photographer who can capture the warmth and love (or kooky energy!) of your family, or who’s willing to climb or crawl on and over just about anything to capture that perfect shot on your wedding day, or who can create engagement photos that show you being swept off your feet and into the blue sky above, I’m happy to oblige.

To say just a few words about Dave: You won’t find a gentler soul than this guy. From engagement to reception, he’s there to snag the serious and the silly. He has a way of making the camera shy feel right at home, while his quirky anecdotes will keep the extroverts engaged. At our reception, Dave was our anchor. He navigates events with ease, coordinating with other vendors in ways we didn’t expect. I am forever grateful that we made the choice to work with Dave, and would recommend him with enthusiasm to anyone seeking a wedding photographer!

My focus at your wedding isn't to steal you away from your family and friends for hours to make "art," but to empathically capture the moments and relationships present at your wedding. Your wedding photos are the single most important wedding investment you'll make. After the day is done and over, they will be what tethers you to your memories of your day. They will be the heirlooms you'll pass down to your grandchildren to hang on walls and sit on bedsides for generations to come.

We loved Chrissy! She was fun and easy to work with, and I loved that she provided color and black/white photos. She did everything on our list, and listened to our ideas as well. Nothing felt forced or over-posed, but she was great at guiding next moves when needed. Will definitely use again for future photos.

We are Kristi & Nathan, we’re married, we love love, and we’re here to tell stories authentically. Based in the Midwest, we never charge for travel because we believe you should be able to hire the photographers you love without worrying about extra fees. We love to create space for you to be yourselves, honest and unhinged, not posed, not fake. We want to capture you as you are in this moment in your lives, because love is magical. With freedom to be yourselves, emotion and beauty come through.

Our journey to finding our wedding photographer did not start well. Our wedding was in Montana and we reached out to a local photographer who seemed great at first. Then as soon as she found out it was a gay wedding, she backed out. Needless to say we were devastated that the very first person we reached out to was cruel enough to stoop that low. However, we will forever be grateful she did, because that brought us to Kristin and Nathan! We stumbled across Made to be Mine by pure luck while scrolling through Instagram one day. Right from the start they blew us away with their dreamy, jaw-dropping, moody AF photography style. Mix that with their kindness & compassion and we knew we found the perfect fit for us! We ended up needing to reschedule our wedding due to Covid and they made that stressful situation so much better by being super supportive and understanding. Moving our wedding date actually ended up working out in our favor because it gave us time to meet them for an engagement shoot! We already knew Kristi and Nathan were talented, but we left the engagement shoot in aww. My wife and I are usually so awkward in photos, but Kristi and Nathan made us look like naturals! They go out of their way to make you feel comfortable and relaxed. It honestly felt like we were just hangin with friends who just happen to be taking stunning photos of us at the same time. Flash to the wedding and let me tell you, they did not disappoint!! Everything from us, family, friends and the beautiful venue was captured absolutely perfectly. (Pro tip, have them do the drone video for you. You’ll thank me later.) When we were sent our official wedding photos, it wasn’t just an online link. Oh no, Made to be Mine of course goes the extra mile and sent us a literal wedding photo experience! We received actual prints of a few of their favs, zip drives of the beautifully edited video, the photos as well as extra little video clips from the day. All in a cute custom box with other fun little goodies in it. We seriously can’t recommend these guys enough. We truly feel like we’ve gained life long friends throughout this process and we’re beyond grateful for the amazing photos we get to look at on our wall everyday.

McKenna was so friendly and charismatic from the start and she fit right into the craziness and chaos of our life without missing a beat. She was flexible and super communicative, especially when it rained on the day of our engagement photos, which really helped to calm our nerves and make the session comfortable and fun. She stepped right into the flow of things on our wedding day and kept everyone on schedule and in good spirits. The photos came back better than I could've imagined and our guests haven't stopped talking about them. To say that McKenna is talented would be an understatement and I'll certainly be asking her to capture the rest of our big life moments!

The word ‘milieu’ defines how we want to capture your wedding: as whole of scenery. Any experience is the result of a series of moments and feeling of our interaction with others. Images can recreate those intangible elements more fully in our mind, allowing us to relive our emotional experience long after the day has ended.

Awarded Best of Zola
Salvatore was wonderful! He was very kind and professional. Before the wedding, he took the time to speak with us about our vision for the day and the shots we wanted. On the day of the wedding, he spent pretty much the entire day with us, and was even able to split his time between our ceremony and our reception. We got his photos right on time, and they were truly lovely, with a nice mix of posed and candid photographs, and beautiful lighting and focus throughout. Salvatore did everything we could have expected him to and more, and we are very glad that we went with Milieu for our wedding!

She let us pick who we wanted in photos and where we wanted them, and we are overjoyed with the results! The wedding day was a blast with Ashley and Jonathan, and you can tell!. They captured all parts of the wedding. I truly cannot say "dang, I wish they would have gotten that moment," because they captured it all. They had a good mix of artistic, fun, and romantic. They also made sure every one of the guests were in the photos.

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.

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.

I have a passion for travel and I love meeting new people and hearing their crazy (or not so crazy) stories. I love trying new things and walking around a new city until my feet bleed (that's literally happened...still love you tho, NYC). I'm a major extrovert, but I have a great appreciation for the little things in life. You'll likely find me sipping some strong coffee at a local café or snuggled up on the couch with some wine, pizza, and my husband on a rainy day. With a camera in hand, I am probably the most annoying person to travel with, stopping every ten feet to take a picture. Sorry not sorry.

My passion lies in documenting individuals as they live their best lives, immersed in the activities and passions that fuel their souls.
