We had a great experience working with Ivan from IG Photo Video! We booked Ivan as the photographer for our wedding and our son’s Christening. Ivan provided exceptional HD quality, beautiful photos at a great price. He also provided us with an unlimited number of professionally edited photos, which gave us close to 800 gorgeous pictures to treasure. He also provides 50 printed images and a USB drive of all of images in high resolution. After comparing many photographers while searching, IG Photo Video truly provides the best value at the most reasonable price and gives you exceptional quality work. Ivan was punctual, easy to work with, and understanding of all of the day’s unexpected moments. He also gave great directions on posing and made the process very easy. The pictures came out beautifully and it was our best decision to hire Ivan! We would absolutely hire him again, and after seeing our photos, our guests said that they will be reaching out to him as well!

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.

Welcome to Leif and Christine, Rockford wedding and portrait photographers. We specialize in capturing your special moments. While we are based in Rockford, IL, we also photograph weddings in Chicago Suburbs, Beloit, Madison, WI. We would love to be a part of your special day!

Christine was my wedding photographer for my winter wedding at Kilbuck Creek and I cannot recommend her enough!!! From early communication, to the engagement shoot, to the wedding she was an absolute dream to work with. She made my husband and I comfortable after we told her how we didn’t know how to take photos and walked us through everything to make sure we got flawless results. She even sent us a canvas set with some of our wedding photos! She made sure every inspiration photo was taken and had the tough job of wrangling together us and our rambunctious bridal party to get the job done! If you are getting married and looking for a photographer or need some family portraits look no further, Christine is your girl!!

We are SO happy with how the photos turned out and would hire him again in a heartbeat. Thank you Phil!

Erik Anderson - Photography

Loves Park, IL
  • Fine art style

I grew my business after a desperate venture as a newspaper photographer over six years living with student loan debt in my father's basement. But, that soon changed... And in 2014 I had the opportunity to work with some of the best wedding photographers in the state line as a second photographer having 20 weddings that first year. It was brand new to me, it stirred a passion, and I realized I wanted to do this for a living. I found my calling, but that first year was rough, until...

Choosing Erik as our photographer was the best decision we made for our wedding day. Their work is pure magic—each photo a masterpiece, telling the story of our love with unmatched artistry. Professional, unobtrusive, and a true visionary, Erik’s effortlessly captured every emotion and moment. The post-production brilliance elevated the visuals to breathtaking heights. Not only is he an amazing photographer, but he also is a spectacular extra ‘honorary bridesman’ as he puts it. He helped out with so many things other than taking photos - like helping my mom with my buttons. His personality is professional and artistic but also hilarious and personal. We felt like we made a family friend during our time with Erik. If you're seeking an artist, not just a photographer, choose Erik for a wedding day turned timeless masterpiece. Our heartfelt thanks for turning our moments into an everlasting symphony of love. He is worth every penny and so much MORE!

I'm Chrissy and I'm a documentary wedding photographer with 10+ years of experience who fully believes that your life deserves to be documented truthfully. 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.

My name is Elliot Stokes and I am a photographer located in the Madison, WI area, but I work all across Wisconsin and Illinois. I have been drawn to the camera since I was young, but becoming a father has really shown me the magic behind capturing the most candid and beautiful moments of our lives. I started my journey into professional photography officially in the summer of 2019 and received my Bachelors of Fine Arts degree with honors in Digital Photography in the spring of 2022. I absolutely love what I do and look forward to every new experience and opportunity this journey takes me on!

Book with Elliot now!! I stumbled across Developing Diamonds Photography randomly on Facebook and found myself deep diving into all of the photos. I was so impressed by the romantic look and feel and knew that was exactly what I wanted for our big day! Elliot was very responsive to all of my emails and questions. When we met for our engagement pictures even my husband, who hates pictures, had an enjoyable time. Elliot is very personable and truly gets to know you as a couple. The day of the wedding he was on time and professional. He listed to all my wants and needs in pictures I was looking for. After seeing our sneak peek at the wedding I couldn't wait to see our final pictures! They were back within a week and they were stunning! I couldn't ask for a better experience and would recommend Elliot to anyone!

We couldn't have asked for a better photographer on the most important day of our lives. They took so much time to incorporate everything we could want in our wedding photos and they even took the time to edit some multiple amazing videos with the footage. They were patient and they made us feel comfortable and supported during the night and we had a blast as well. On top of all that, he knew how to capture well our love story. His team is amazing and they provided a high quality, welcoming, amazing photography experience. I'd recommend their work for any event you'd like to capture precious moment's in! They were worth more than every cent we spent! Again, thank you so so much Ledd and team. We will treasure these photos forever.

Bonie Weddings is a wedding photography and videography company, dedicated to capturing those unscripted and genuine moments. From candid laughs and unplanned dance moves to even the cake mishaps (yes, it happens), We're there to preserve the authenticity and genuinely of your special day. Our team of professionals firmly believes that every couple should have the opportunity to capture the memories of their special day without breaking the bank.

Bonie Wedding was great to work with. From the start process, the communication was easy. Hannah was our lead photographer with Emily and Lactoya were our videographers, who were both great teams. I highly recommend using Bonie weddings for both photo and video, as the two teams worked together without any trouble. During the reception, we barely noticed their presence, yet every time we looked up they were there recording everything. It was so nice to know that your special day was captured from start to finish, without feeling overwhelming. We appreciated Hannah and Emily's directions for all the photos. The production team was great as well. Very responsive and easy to communicate. They make the entire process clear and concise, which is appreciated when the wedding planning process and day off can feel overwhelming. Our wedding was not even 2 weeks ago and we already received our video trailer, as well as some sneak peek pictures from Hannah via Dropbox. Hannah also did our engagement shoot and it was fun and easy. We loved how our pictures came out and are so eager to see the rest. Thank you Bonie!

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'm Elizabeth! your wedding photographer who feels more like a friend! I am who you want to call if you want relaxed, fun and beautiful wedding photos!! I can't wait to hear from you and hear all about your big day!!

I hope I can do Elizabeth Grace justice in this review!! From the early communication to the pre-wedding communication to the day of professionalism and dedication to the quick turn delivery, Elizabeth was amazing and so easy to work with. She was amazingly thorough, patient, generous with their time, humble, adaptive, accommodating, pleasant, brilliant, etc, etc. I literally cried when I first saw our sneak peeks, because they were more than I could have ever envisioned. Our wedding photos are literally perfect. Beyond that – they became honorary family. From the engagement session where Elizabeth put my very (very, very, very) anxious nerves at ease, to helping us schedule our entire day to ensure we could capture the moments we wanted, and then to running interference and genuinely caring about me, my husband, our families, and our big day…I cannot say enough about the work of Elizabeth. I have never seen more amazing photos of myself, and capturing all the things we didn’t even think about. Elizabeth isn't ’t just your photographer, she’s a teammate in your wedding day – she wants it to succeed and be as gorgeous as you do, she wants you to be happy, not just because you are her client, but because she cares about you. I cannot recommend her enough. If you have the opportunity to add her to your team, do it.

Voted Best Detroit Wedding Photographer by Channel 4 News Detroit 2023. Metro Detroit Photographer. Based in southeast Michigan, but I'll meet you anywhere. Specializing in Weddings near and far, Engagement Portraits, Lifestyle Portraits, Newborn Portraits, Branding and more.

Awarded Best of Zola
We first worked with Chelcie for our engagement photo session in downtown Detroit. Most photographers I contacted had a very limited timeline for engagement sessions. We were blown away at the amount of time and care that Chelcie put into our engagement session. She also had an incredible eye for location spots to get the best photos. We had a few spots planned out, but she would end up seeing spots on the way that turned into absolutely incredible photos. My husband and I are also the type who are not totally sure how to pose or what to do for professional photos. Chelcie made us feel beyond comfortable and made those things SO easy for us. We just had to work with her for our wedding! And we are so glad we did. Her team was beyond amazing. We had Chelcie, her second photographer, and her assistant which meant they were able to capture every moment and truly helped our day to flow well. Once again, Chelcie was able to spot the best photo locations on the day of and make our first look the most special moment of our entire lives. Chelcie also worked seamlessly with my other vendors. She really cares about capturing her clients' visions and delivering really beautiful photos. We absolutely love our photos as they really capture our big day and are unique, not the typical "posey" photos. I cannot recommend her enough!!!

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.

She's the best of the best when it comes to wedding day, she will guide her couples and work with them to get the shots that they love and need for memories. I appreciate her ability to get the job done and doesnt stress her couples to the max.

As a small boy, I would sit for hours watching my mother hand-color portraits for a local photographer, during the cold winter months, by a fire in our family room. From there I began taking my own pictures with my first box camera. Fast forward to a restless twenty-something working as a microbiologist, taking weddings and portraits on weekends. Eventually I graduated college with an M.A. in Photography and started out in Chicago, assisting numerous photographers, shooting everything from oranges to weddings. I have been fortunate to have worked all over the world. Photography is more than a job, it’s an avocation, a passion, it's what I do.

Now we will be able to watch our wedding mass for years to come. Thom also captured many couples, family, and friends photos throughout the day.

I have a lot to offer, and I do things differently than most other photographers. More than anything, I want to make sure I’m the perfect fit for your wedding. My style and approach is a generous mix of documentary and editorial-style portraiture. For the majority of the day, I stay very hands off, focusing 100% on the story. You won’t find me asking you or your friends to stage or recreate moments, but you will find me ready to capture those moments before they even happen. During portraits, it’s a little different. I give plenty of direction, working to bring creative ideas and poses to make images that are as unique as the people in them.

Thomas Doggett has been photographing me (Mckenna) since I was 13 years old, and every time he delivers phenomenal results! He did pet portraits with me and my horse, my senior graduation photos, my COVID backyard wedding and the larger reception later on, and every single event was absolutely magical. Thomas is easy and fun to work with, and brings a wonderful upbeat and creative attitude to every shoot. 10/10 would recommend!

He aims to capture the beauty of the world and the people in them. He has recently begun his travels around the U.S capturing the life of those within that city.

Jason was recommended to me by a family member, and to this day, I'm so grateful. Jason was so quick with communication. He responded and asked for details from the very beginning. He was easy to talk to. We ended up booking him for our engagement photos AND our wedding photos. Our engagement photo session was seamless. Jason was easy to work with and he made my (now) husband and I feel so comfortable. Photo sessions do NOT have to be awkward with Jason. He recommended the LA Arboretum and the Pasadena City Hall for our shoot and we couldn't have asked for any better location. Jason knew exactly where to go and what to do. When it came time for our wedding day, Jason and Mae (his second) were so nice. They did not rush us for any photoshoot. He had us take our time, take breathers, and helped us stress about one less thing during the day. We just got our photos back and they are downright GORGEOUS. I could not believe these were us. I am still amazed by it all. The turnover time was so quick as well. Again, communication was so easy with him. I HIGHLY recommend Jason as a photographer. We could not have asked for anyone better.

She even helped bustle my dress and for that alone, I will always share my gratitude! She most recently shot our updated family photos with a mini tree farm shoot, and we can’t wait to continue on with her in the future to capture more of our most special moments as a family.

About wedding photographers in Genoa, IL

How much does a wedding photographer typically cost in Genoa, IL?

A Genoa, IL wedding photographer ranges from $320 to $7,500 and averages at $2,500. The cost reflects the number of hours included, if there is a second photographer, any prints or albums, and, most importantly, the experience of the photographer.
