About Maura Black Photography

Maura Black Stephens

Owner/Artist

I’m Maura – Chicago based wedding photographer to the stars (that’s you!) and I am so pumped you’ve found my little corner of the interweb. Your wedding day is going to be beyond-your-wildest-dreams amazing and beyond that, totally unique. Sure, you’ll put on “The Dress”, exchange your “I do’s” and probably cry at some point (or at all points!) but your wedding day is 100% completely and utterly yours. I am here to help make this the best day of your life while creating heirloom art that tells your personal love story. I offer planning support and insider advice at every step of the journey to ensure nothin'-but-net on your Big Day.

You are going to feel so comfortable and - dare I say - have so much fun working with me that you'll completely forget I have a camera in my hands and am capturing those beautiful, once-in-a-life-time, if-you-blink-you'll-miss-it moments. This, my friend, is when the magic happens! Drop me a line and let's get this party started - I cannot wait to get to know you :-)!

    From our first call, I knew I wanted to work with Maura. Photography was the most important element of our wedding for me. While quality of work is important, I wanted to really connect with our photographer and feel I could trust them to capture our day and create once in a lifetime memories. We were so incredibly lucky that we found Maura as she ticked every single box! We realized a few days out from our wedding that we’d have unavoidable rain the entire day and needed to pivot on most of our plans for vows, portraits, etc. Maura was truly a lifesaver helping us navigate plan B (and additional contingency plans). The location she recommended for our vows and portraits ended up being even more perfect for us than our original outdoor plans, and the photos turned out incredible. The quality of Maura’s work, her professionalism, stamina(!), and organization were all notably impressive to not just myself and the groom, but we received multiple comments how amazing Maura was from family, friends, and guests after the wedding. If I could leave one piece of advice for anyone currently planning their wedding, it would be to BOOK MAURA ASAP. You won’t regret it!

  • Highly recommend!

    When we first reached out to Maura to get our engagement photos done, we knew right away that we wanted to work with her. From then all the way to receiving our wedding photos, Maura was our cheerleader, coach, best friend, and professional photographer. As a couple who is camera shy, Maura was very patient and helped guide us. She made the whole experience super fun and we were sad when the engagement shoot was over! She's professional while being laid-back. For our wedding she was super helpful with planning out the day and made great suggestions. We ended up at a bar close to our venue with our wedding party for a drink and group photos pre-ceremony and Maura ended up scouting the place out prior to ensure she was familiar with the space. She was great with the family and getting everyone in the right place for all of the family portrait combos. Maura is the ultimate package and the vendor you want in your corner on your big day.
