I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I were from out of town and hired Sean to photograph us at a Christmas gala at the place we got married. He was accommodating to last minute changes to make the most of the session and even went above and beyond to make it happen. Upon first impression, he was upbeat and had a vision. We were outside in sub 30 degree weather with fading evening light as well as low light inside a building and he was up for the challenge. We ended up with beautiful images in less than ideal conditions and that is what makes a great photographer. Sean has a sense of humor and an eye for that perfect photograph. He was fun to work with and his heart for people and creativity shows through. Thank you Sean for capturing this time in our lives.

Oh hey — I’m Sammie! Or Sam. Samantha. Mom. Girl with the camera. I answer to basically anything! I’m a mom of two wild kiddos, three ridiculous fluff balls, and I’ve been married to my high school sweetheart since forever. I’m a loud, sarcastic, MCU-obsessed, book-loving homebody who swears a little too much and loves Chipotle - like a lot. I’ve been a photographer for 13 years, with degrees in photography and graphic design from Dominican University. My work is all about connection — capturing real, unscripted moments that will mean even more years from now. I’m so happy you’re here. Let’s create something beautiful together.

Samantha Jean Photography LLC was an incredible wedding photographer for our special day. From the very beginning, Sam was communicative, open to all of our questions, and available at all hours to ensure we felt supported throughout the process. On the day of the wedding, Sam got nearly every single shot on our photo list, going out of her way to make sure she captured all the important moments. The quality of her work is truly remarkable - the photos are absolutely beautiful and we are thrilled with how they turned out. We can't recommend Samantha Jean Photography enough to any couple looking for a professional, talented, and dedicated wedding photographer.

Hey! I'm Mackenzie - mom, photographer, wife and book + latte obsessed! Ideal day starts with a latte and a bagel sandwich (because going out for breakfast is the BEST) and ends with a good book. Throw in a photoshoot or wedding in the middle and I'm set!! I have been a professional photographer for 14 years now focusing on couples, families and small businesses. I am not a fan of super stiff posing so I use prompts and play games to capture your personalties and relationships. For weddings, most of your gallery will consist of candid shots of your day helping to tell your story. I'd love to chat with you more!!

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband & I can’t say enough good things about Mackenzie and Lex. We did an engagement shoot as well as our wedding photo/videos with them. They were extremely easy to communicate with and our pictures are AMAZING. I made a mistake in communicating what videos we wanted & didn’t realize it until a couple of months after our wedding. Mackenzie was so understanding & put together what she could so that we can still have some videos, we are so grateful for that! We plan to use them for any future photography needs because we loved them so much!

I'm Kate! A Chicago-area wedding photographer who loves getting to know her clients and offering a personalized approach. Candid moments are my favorite to capture, but I can offer as much guidance as you need when it's time for portraits.

Each couple is unique and I love offering an experience that celebrates YOU specifically. If this sounds like what you're searching for - please don't hesitate to reach out and get the conversation going!

Kate was one of our favorite vendors and a pretty important one as our wedding day photographer! We had a great experience with her at both our engagement photo shoot and on our wedding day. I also met with her a few times for consulting/advice on our timeline before the big day, which was SO helpful. Kate makes you feel comfortable and natural while she is behind the camera making the magic happen! She is so kind and has such a calming presence, yet keeps everything moving and on schedule. Kate makes sure to get all of your preferred photos, from detail shots to group shots and the moments in between.

My name is Jana Blue and I've been photographing weddings for 12 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.

Awarded Best of Zola
She’s simply the best photographer you’ll ever meet, blending creativity with flawless technique. She dives into your story, captures your essence, and brings it to life in every shot. Everything feels natural, and the results are nothing short of breathtaking. Honestly, I could write a book about it, but this is something you have to experience for yourself. One thing’s certain: she will absolutely blow your mind.

Awarded Best of Zola
Stephanie is just incredible! We hired her for our big day and had our engagement shoot with her downtown. We had never had photos done before and had no idea what to expect. She took incredible pictures of us but the best part was she made us feel like we were just hanging out with a friend and it made it all worth it because our pictures showed our awkward but fun side because we felt comfortable. Fast forward to our wedding day, we had to reschedule our reception due to Covid so we didn’t have a ceremony but we did have all the time in the world for photos and we made the most of it. It gave us all the extra time to do a first look with the best man in a wedding dress, and more. We didn’t worry about our timeline but we never felt rushed when times were going back to back. She checked in with us multiple times to make sure we had what we needed and took pictures of all the fun details so now when we look back we have all the memories and can enjoy the night like a guest. Fast forward to this year, we loved working with her so much as our family is expanded we reached out to have her do our pregnancy announcement photos AND our newborn photos with our little man. It is so special to find someone you trust and can deliver exactly what you need and more. Cannot recommend Stephanie and her team enough!

I’m a Danish wedding photographer based in Chicago. Photography has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’m drawn to images that feel honest and quiet - the kind that don’t just show what a moment looked like, but what it actually felt like to be there.

Awarded Best of Zola
I don’t know where to begin! Anders and Kristin were truly the dream team behind capturing our wedding day! They weren’t just our photographer and videographer, they were our hype team! Not only did they deliver breathtaking photos and a beautifully crafted video that have allowed us to relive every magical moment, but they also went above and beyond—personally driving us to our venue on our wedding day. Anders and Kristin were also some of the most fun people we’ve ever worked with. From our initial meeting at our engagement shoot, they had us laughing, feeling totally at ease, and actually enjoying every moment in front of the camera. Their creativity and talent speak for themselves—the photos and video are beyond stunning—but it’s their personalities that made the whole experience unforgettable. They somehow managed to capture every candid, heartfelt, and hilarious moment, while also making sure we had the time of our lives in the process. If you want vendors who feel like old friends and who will turn your wedding day into an adventure, these two are it! We couldn't be more grateful.

We’re Cling & Peck, a trio of humans who are hooked on creating photos and videos that are going to last decades and generations. These photos and videos aren’t for mass consumption; they’re going to be loved by different handfuls of humans for years to to come. We love that.

Awarded Best of Zola
Cling and Peck made our wedding day feel like a beautiful adventure. We got married at a forest preserve in the middle of nowhere and they had scouted out several great spots for photos beforehand so that we didn't have to waste time looking around. They also listened to what we were looking for as far as style, specific photos, etc. and delivered exactly what we wanted, and more! Their artistic eye and perfect setup of shots gave the photos the perfect woodland fairytale wedding vibes. Group shots were well directed and easy to manage, unlike many family photo attempts I had experienced in the past. They also ingratiated themselves easily with the wedding guests so that their photos/videos during the reception were barely noticed. They just seemed like another person having fun on the dance floor capturing the whole thing. Would definitely recommend them for all aspects of their wedding photography.

Hi, I'm Ashley! I'm a professional wedding photographer based in Northern Illinois! At my core, I’m a giggly, bubbly, empathetic goofball with a welcoming heart. I've had roots in the wedding industry for a while now and have taken on many roles and worn many hats in this profession! In addition to wedding photography, I'm also a wedding coordinator and work for my local florist! I thrive in environments where I can be intentional, present, loving, empathetic, real, raw, and share in this space with others. This is the driving factor behind my “why” and where my passion for photography and the wedding industry takes root.

Where in the world do I start with my girl Ashley?! When planning my wedding in 2024, I knew one of the most important things during the process was to find an amazing wedding photographer, and sure enough we did! My husband and I got SO lucky. From the beginning, Ash made us beyond comfortable at our engagement shoot (it was our first time ever taking professional photos) AND we had a blast even though it was absolutely freezing that day. During one of the most stressful times of my life planning the wedding, she was the most amazing support, giving the best advice and sweetest comfort throughout the wedding process. Ashley helped make our wedding day go by so smoothly, helped calm my nerves with her warm presence and did an AMAZING job with our photos. She helped capture the most beautiful parts of our day and was so determined to get rainbow pics that we were so lucky to have. Ash was not only the best wedding photographer and her work is beyond beautiful, but she's also become a close friend of mine. I truly am so glad we found each other, I will forever be grateful for our girl! Don't think twice, I promise you won't regret booking any shoot with Ashley!

I captured my first wedding in August of 2018, it was the day I fell head over heels in love with wedding photography. It's all about capturing the love story for me..the feels from beginning to end. When you book with AGS, you're signing on for an adventure. Your engagement session is a celebration full of us getting to know one another, lots of laughter, and having fun! As your wedding nears closer AGS will help with your timeline, connect with your vendors ( or introduce you to some of the best) and help plan out the perfect photo locations, along with any other needs to create the perfect day.

Gosh, I don't know where to begin with Arleigh. From the beginning, it felt like we knew Arleigh for the longest time. She made us feel so comfortable from the get-go. Her friendly and full of positivity and love personality made us feel so sure about choosing her as our wedding photographer. She captured our personalities and love in the most beautiful way. The photos she took truly showed who we were as a couple. In addition, she was a calming force as I was full of anxiety before walking down the aisle in front of a huge crowd. She made sure we were happy and calm the entire day and was always willing to take care of us in any way she could. I know I will be forever recommending Arleigh to others, as well as using her in the future for family portraits.

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 the absolute perfect addition to our special day! Obviously you cherish your wedding photos forever and we could not be happier with them! On our big day, he made sure to get the most beautifully stunning yet natural shots that we envisioned while making sure we were comfortable and having the absolute best time.

I’m Marissa a photographer, mom, and wife. When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll usually find me adventuring around Chicago (or across the country) with my family. We love exploring new places, and I’ll never say no to a good plate of nachos, a Snickers, or a fizzy water. Photography has been part of me for as long as I can remember—I’ve always had a camera in hand. Fun fact: my daughters are even named after a camera and after light (can you guess their names?). What I love most is capturing real, meaningful moments, especially weddings. Being able to preserve love stories in an authentic and lasting way is truly the heart of what I do.

Shooting weddings is what brings me the most fulfillment and joy. It is pretty amazing when your passion can become your career. I understand the importance of capturing the authenticity and uniqueness of your love. The most rewarding aspect of my work is seeing the joy, sacrifice, beauty and love in marriage. I will help you every step of the way to feel comfortable and confident, but I want to get all of the unplanned moments as well! If you think we're a fit, say hey!

Had the pleasure to work with Rachel & her team this past wedding season. Both her and her 2nd shooter were so kind and easy to work with. We were able to stay up-to-speed with everything and in constant communication throughout our client's wedding -- making execution flow so seamlessly. *VERY important as a fellow vendor / day-of-coordinator to have that team effort and good energy, as it only benefits the outcome of the day. Hope to work with her again in the near future (might even book her to do my wedding someday). Definitely a "Must Book!"

When it comes to my approach to wedding photography, I am big on really getting to know you two, learning about your love story, understanding your vision, and working collaboratively to ensure your day is as stress free as possible. I may be your wedding photographer, but relationships are so important to me with each client I work with.

Abby was an absolute dream to work with and such a joy to be around. Not only did we love working with her, but our wedding party, family, and friends did too. She took the most stunning photos and truly captured our love perfectly. Her creativity and eye for unique moments resulted in photos that we will cherish forever. We loved working with Abby and could not recommend her enough!

Kelly is not only incredible to work with but she is an amazing human being. We loved working with her and were just amazed by her talent. We wanted something a bit moody and unique with our photos and she delivered it better than we could ever imagine! We highly recommend her for who she is, her talent, organization, and communication especially replanning our wedding due to everything in 2020. We highly suggest getting the package with the book of pictures and USB. :)
