Hi, Im Carol DeAnda, born and raised in the southwest suburbs and now living in Lake in the Hills Illinois, with my studio in downtown Algonquin. I have always been the one with the camera since grade school, but it wasn't until high school I realized that this could be my calling. After high school, I attended Harrington College of Design for the Digital photography program and started on my path to becoming a professional photographer. I am a PPA member and CPP (Certified Professional Photographer) and hold the Master Wedding Photographer degree from PPA, as well as a member of The Wedding Equality Alliance.

Carol and her team are ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL when it comes to photography! The work is second-to-none, the professionalism is always consistent, and everyone is always so friendly! :) I have been working alongside Carol at weddings for several years now. As a DJ, it can be tough to communicate with vendors and make sure everyone is always ready to go. This is definitely not the case with Carol. I'm able to find her in a moment's notice and she's ready to capture those precious moments in an instant! Not to mention, her genuine love for her clients. Each and every couple that she works for she gives her all - and that not only shows on the day of an event, but also in her work. Carol and her team edit and produce SOME OF THE BEST PHOTOGRAPHY WORK I HAVE EVER SEEN. Seriously. If you haven't checked out her portfolio, do it now. Carol has an eye for not only capturing your ideas, but also the tiny details that no one else would ever think about. Do yourself a favor a book with Carol and her team.

I’m a wedding + lifestyle photographer and I’m so excited for the chance to get to know you all! I was raised in a small town an hour west of Chicago and I grew up in a rather large family of six boys and only one sister! It's shocking I turned out as “girlie” as I am. My love for the arts came from my parents and my love for photography was a gift from the Lord. It was born out of a painful portion of my childhood, but the Lord used photography to mend and heal me. Photography has been my therapy and I’ve found peace and tranquility behind my camera.

You are probably assuming my about me section will have a story about how I always wanted to be a photographer, I came out of the womb holding a camera, but that couldn’t be me. I stumbled into it, literally. I had no plans to become a wedding photographer. I was either going to follow my dad’s path and go to dental school, or become a social worker. But a freshman in college decided to shoot a few photos for fun, and now over eight years and almost 200 weddings later, I could not imagine myself doing anything else. This is my dream job!

Awarded Best of Zola
I absolutely love working with Abigail and her partner!! Abigail was able to not only help keep us on track and on time with all of our timeline, but also was very helpful with questions or calming our nerves. We had a blast working with her and the photographs came back perfect! I appreciated the posed pictures along with the off guard pictures as well and it truly makes me happy looking back and being able to cherish all the memories through pictures. I will always recommend Abigial and her services, I know she does beyond great work with her time and dedication to her career.

My name is Jana Blue and I've been photographing weddings for 10 years. I'm consistent not in a trend of photos or style, but emotions. Each wedding and couples are so unique and my work follows that. In my career I've photographed both big production weddings and also intimate DIY ones. I've photographed informal engagements and elopements/weddings in a desert in Chile, in the mountains of Zion, in a beach in Croatia, in an ancient church in Greece and in forests in Brazil. I work with all different budgets and needs from my brides. I'm a preferred vendor of Chicago First Lady Boat, so I do weddings on the boat during the summer.

I would recommend Jana Blue over and over again! Thank you so much!

Alexander and I fell in love exploring the World together, from mini baecations, to immersing ourselves in new countries. Our love, has been our greatest adventure. Like most couples, our happily ever started with an elaborate vision of a dream wedding but months after planning we were left feeling incomplete. We found our dreams for a deeply intimate ceremony, lost in the expectations of modern-day wedding planning. We decided to take a leap of faith, following our adventurous hearts and ELOPE. Elle & Co transformed our elopement vision into a reality assisting with planning and providing exceptional care. Dani was truly my cheerleader and best friend wedding planner. Her listening skills are impeccable and attention to details makes her a true artist. Upon meeting Jed and Dani, we knew we made the right choice. We love their energy and connection, so natural. Our elopement was absolutely perfect, everything we hoped and dreamed for. The ceremony was private and intimate captured across breath-taking, beautiful landscape. Time stood still and there was only our forever. Our decision to elope was the most beautiful testament to our love. Our pictures take our breath away with every look. Cheers to adventure, love and elopement Elle and Co. Love always, Alexader & Kee Albaugh

Ally was a rockstar from day one. She responded to my Zola inquiry promptly and we set up a phone conference for the same week. The call went smoothly because Ally is such a professional. She went over all the key information, even adding things I didn't even think of. I knew right away that this was not her first rodeo. We planned a second call closer to the date to review the photo order and any shots that I wanted. The day of our wedding, Ally was there ready and waiting. She got moments from our first step out of the car, all the way to my guests getting down on the dance floor. After the wedding, Ally checked in to give us an estimated time for photo turn around, and she delivered in less than two weeks! The photos came out beautifully and we were able to download all of our photos to keep. I can recommend Ally with confidence because she, without a doubt, is the best.

I've been capturing weddings since 2009. My style is classic/true to color and my approach is a mix of directive (for posed parts of the day) and candid. Overall, I blend into the background as much as possible when it's appropriate, capturing things as they happen and I help you create portraits with gentle direction and humor where necessary. It is your day. let’s work together to make your photos the best record of your memories they can be! I look forward to working with you!

Marianne feels best when hiking, speaks Portuguese, considers herself a master at making açai bowls and blender soups, loves using clean products, and has to shower every night before going to bed (her alone time).

The Nicodem team is everything you want and need in a photography team for your big day. Not only are they incredibly personable, they are extremely organized, professional, efficient, and talented. When we began inquiring with photographers for our wedding, we were having a hard time finding the right fit because everything seemed so impersonal. The Nicodems reached out with a beautiful email and wanted to schedule a phone call for our consultation. Our 30 minute conversation turned into an hour because they were so lovely and I felt like they truly cared about getting to know us, learning our story our story, and hearing about our vision for our day! We knew that they would be the perfect fit. Our engagement photos were so fun with them and they turned out incredible. Leading up to the wedding weekend the Nicodems frequently checked in with us to see how we were doing, if we needed anything, and even sent us flowers (how cute is that?!?!). During our wedding day, we weren't worried about anything because we knew the Nicodem Team would take care of everything. We were calm and able to focus on the joy of the day. The Nicodems did a fabulous job organizing my crazy and big family, capturing special moments, and being our pump-up squad. After the wedding they gave us some sneak peeks and we were dying to see more. Within the timeline provided they gave us our full gallery, and 2 years later, we look at it almost monthly. The only regret is that I wish we booked them for video too!! Your wedding photos and video are forever, to make sure they are perfect, make sure you have the Nicodem Team for both! Thank you Nicodems! You are the absolute best :) xx, The Campions

Featured on Today show and Wedding Day Magazine. I believe everyone deserves to have life's biggest moments captured on camera. But photos turn into heirlooms when the moments are documented in a way that feels absolutely authentically you. No forced emotions, no fake smiles, and certainly no awkward prom-pic poses. Whether you’re dressed to the nines on the day of your wedding or, the dirty white dress that spent more time on the dance floor than the altar let’s capture the authentic you and have a damn good time doing it.

Mary was such an incredible photographer and person to work with for our wedding!! We are not too comfortable in front of the camera and she did such a fantastic job helping us and coaching us so our pictures were the best they could be. The day of the wedding she went above and beyond to make sure it was special and memorable and I cannot rave about her enough. We love Mary!!!

Our photos are GORGEOUS and they truly captured the memories that we will remember forever. I must include a prime example of how in-tune these two are: I have a scar on my right arm that I am self conscious about and truthfully, it would have been a challenge for anyone to get around. However, our photos limited the number of times my scar was visible, if even at all. A truly unique touch that means so much.

Unfortunately one of the photographers was late to the wedding and missed our ceremony, and although the lead photographer did an excellent job capturing what he could by himself, this mishap resulted in a crushing lack of photos of my dad walking me down the aisle.

As an event coordinator I look for vendors who are professional, a great value, and a team player with the other vendors at the event. Doru & Claudia Halip are at the top of that list. They have a real caring for their clients needs, making sure the photographic part of the day goes smoothly, with no drama. Many photographers do phenomenal work, however it is all about them, not the Bride & Groom. Doru & Claudia stay in the background, and their work is amazing.

Hi loves, I'm Sarah! I'm a destination wedding photographer and mother of two... CATS! I'm a big dreamer, romantic and creator, so you can only imagine how much I love what I do and sharing my passion with the couples I meet. I'm all about documenting authentic moments and getting to learn your love story. Because of how much I travel, I personally only take on a number of weddings per year as I'm very intentional with the work I do! If I'm not personally available, I have a team and they're amazing! So, if you love my style and don't mind working with my team the day of your wedding, the option is always there for you.

Sarah did an amazing job from the get go. She showed up earlier then she said she would and got some great shots I didn't even know she was taking. She was around for the entire night and captured the essence of our wedding. We are so happy with our pictures and the quality of work provided by Sarah. The turnaround time for the pictures was less then two months even though the contract says up to three (we got lucky!). We love them and are so appreciative of the memories.

Greetings! I’m Phil, a passionate and creative photographer based in the vibrant city of Chicago. With a lens as my canvas, I specialize in capturing the essence of moments that tell unique stories. From the picturesque lakeside to the heart of the city, I specialize in crafting timeless engagement and wedding photos that reflect the love and joy of couples saying, "will you marry me?" and "I do" in Chicago. Chicago’s skyline is a masterpiece, and I take pride in capturing its grandeur. My architectural photography brings out the unique character of each building, from historic landmarks to modern skyscrapers.

I had a amazing experience with Phil and his partner photographing my special day. Phil was very communicative through the process and scheduled time to review the shotlist to ensure all images we captured. I am more than happy with my wedding photos and I'd recommend him to anyone.

Hi I'm Patty, your wedding photographer. I am based in West Michigan and spend over 50% of my season servicing Detroit & Chicago couples. Along with servicing the Michigan and Chicago market, I have slowly begun to expand my territory to include destination work with places like Texas, Virginia, Florida and Spain. I serve couples who understand that this season is one worth being celebrated and remembered. The couples who embrace their family and their people however that looks. Most importantly I serve those who see these photographs as an investment into their legacy.

Patty was absolutely amazing to work with! She made the day feel so easy and smooth! She not only caught all the big moments of the day but also caught all the little, tiny moments that I don't see a lot of photos of on wedding days. We love the photos and will cherish them forever!

Why do I take photos? Well I’m glad you asked! When I was a teenager I was thrown from one of my horses and lost my long term memory. Thankfully my father was into photography and I notice that looking back at family photos helped to trigger my memory! With the fear of hitting my head and potentially loosing my memory again, I started taking photography classes and was obsessive about taking photos. Whenever I take photos for a client I remember how important it was to my recovery to have images of my life.

Elyse is the best. She is great with directing you into the perfect pose, always making sure you are show your best self. Her photography is natural and bright. I chose her for all our family photos and business photos because her editing and photography is timeless. She is great at getting everyone's attention and keeps things moving. Friendly, personable, reliable, basically every positive word describes Elyse and her photography! It's always hard to pick favorites when we get our galleries!

I'm Courtney! I care not only about providing you with sharp, authentic and colorful images on your wedding day, but helping you to be fully present on your wedding day so you remember all the big and little moments.

Courtney is everything you could want in a photographer. Photography was a top priority for my wedding and I'm so thankful I went with Expedition Joy. My photos are the exact "timeless, bright and airy (without being washed out)" that I dreamed of. She made us feel super comfortable, took feedback and let us request shots, quickly turned around our engagement session & wedding sneak peaks, and even let us sneak a shot back within 24 hours (insane!!!!). Photos are so important and you should book someone you can trust to give you the gift of those memories in the way you you want and envision them. Courtney did just that for us!! 10/10.

For as long as I can remember I have always been around a camera. Growing up, my Mom was a big documenter of life freezing childhood moments in prints and recording videos. For my ninth birthday I received my first camera. GAME CHANGER. Boy was it fun to step on the other side of the camera. I was unstoppable, never letting my camera leave my side. From then on I cannot remember I time I hadn't owned a camera... or two... or three! Giving other the gift of memories is what brings me the most joy in life. To know that they will have moments they loved shared and reminisced for generations to come. That is everything.

Joy has been absolutely wonderful to work with in all capacities. She puts a lot of effort into getting to know her clients with personal touches that do not go unnoticed. Most photos taken of me (the bride) in normal life are of the marathon / running photo variety, so I wasn’t sure how I was going to feel with more posed couple photos. Joy made everything feel so natural and easy between both the engagement shoot and the wedding day. Joy is extremely organized and is fantastic with time management - her template for the timeline worked so well for further planning. When the ceremony ran over, she got us back on target and moving out of the church while getting all the photos we had requested. She has such great vision for small details and how things will photograph - I often said “I trust your vision!” and the photos turned out so stunning! I especially wanted to remember the day in color, and Joy absolutely delivered on that (and quickly, too - the sneak peeks came back the next day!). She truly captured the magic of a fairytale day, and I am thankful to her and her team for their hard work. Joy is an invaluable asset to have on your wedding day, and you truly will not regret booking with her.

I'm an artist by nature. I love photography, but I also love to paint. Growing up I could color for hours. I come from one of those families where everyone is passionate. Things are really loud and your mom asks you when you've eaten last when you walk in the door. If you come from one of these families, you know exactly what I mean. When my son was born I picked up a camera and embarked on a challenge to learn as much as I could about digital photography. I love to be with people and I love to make people feel good about themselves. We should all have a hype girl and I'd love to be yours.

Sarah not only takes amazing photos, she has an easygoing personality that puts you at ease on your wedding day. Her organizational skills make the day run smoothly and keeps the stress away!
