My love for photography began in Rockford, IL, where I discovered storytelling through a lens. Over the years, I’ve captured Midwest landscapes, national parks, and life’s meaningful moments.

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories.

Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

I’m a wedding photographer who believes your story deserves to be told with honesty, intention, and a little bit of magic. I’m drawn to couples who feel deeply, love boldly, and sometimes worry about how they’ll translate on camera — that’s where my gift lies. Clients often share that I bring a calming, grounding presence that lets them breathe, open up, and feel beautifully themselves. I chase tender glances, soft chaos, joyful bursts, and all the quiet magic in between. If you want warm, romantic, lived-in imagery, I’d be honored to tell your story.

Hey there! Kataryna here. Thanks for checking out my work. I never thought that I would have the opportunity to meet you and everyone else that I have throughout my photography journey. I started photography in high school and fell in love with all that my camera and I could do. In my college years at the University of Iowa, I was able to strengthen my photography skills by taking an internship with a wedding company. Shortly after graduation, I moved back to the Chicago suburbs and began growing my business. A few years later, and I am extremely grateful for everything I have been able to accomplish. ​

I’m typically shy and not very photogenic, so I was extremely anxious about how our wedding photos would turn out. But after finding LaDonna through a Facebook ad, I immediately knew I wouldn’t have to worry if she was our photographer. She took the time to understand me and helped me find my confidence in front of the camera. By the wedding day, I felt completely at ease and able to focus on the moment with my husband rather than my insecurities in my head. LaDonna and the LT² team captured everything beautifully, balancing candid moments with fine art shots that truly tell our story. The photos are so authentic, and I’ll cherish these memories forever, along with the confidence I gained. Thank you, LaDonna, for an unforgettable experience! 3 7.27.24

  • Serves Ashton, IL

I'm a traveling wedding & elopement photographer based in Michigan. I am always down for an adventure. There is so much to explore and experiences to be had. I love getting to know rad couples and capturing some pretty iconic moments for them. Let's get this party started by sending me an inquiry!

Awarded Best of Zola
For starters, we had Taylor do our engagement pictures- my fiancé and I never had professional photos together and to say I was nervous, was an understatement. Taylor drove over 3 hours to do our little engagement shoot and came with this little speaker and the most warming personality. She made us feel completely comfortable and the pictures really spoke for themselves. She directed us and really made the experience something so fun. Fast forward to a year later, we obviously used her for our wedding. Not only did she help with our wedding timeline, but was easy to communicate with, prompt with response times, and really was excited for our big day. On our wedding day, Taylor was a complete professional. We stuck to a strict timeline and were able to get all our pictures done, still have time to enjoy cocktail hour, and mostly be present during our reception. Taylor has the most vibrant personality and makes everyone feel special on your day. She will hype you up and the next moment have you cracking up. Our wedding photos were exactly what we wanted. The pictures really captured the essence of our wedding, the feelings we had throughout the day, and the love we shared with everyone there. I would and DO suggest her to anyone who asks. Taylor really was the best choice a couple could ask for.

I am a fine art wedding photographer who makes your photos more FUN. I'm for the couples who want to show the JOY while still getting those beautiful, editorial images. Ever since my first wedding in 2006 (where I developed the negatives in the darkroom myself), I have been obsessed with capturing couples' love stories. I was born and raised in Chicago where I still split half my time, but I will travel all over the world to capture your love. You can always find me covered in an endless supply of dog hair or hiding chapsticks in several locations around my home.

Kristin did our engagement and wedding photos and they are all absolutely incredible! Before we even had a session with Kristin, she was super helpful and responsive. She gave vendor recommendations and timeline suggestions which were greatly appreciated! I had trouble deciding on a location for our engagement photos and Kristin did a great job at giving recommendations. We had so much fun shooting with her and I immediately knew we made the right choice. Kristin is so fun to be around! She’s funny, she’s the ultimate hype girl, and she gives great direction. Kristin helped make my wedding day truly incredible and we had a blast spending all day with her. I’m so sad that it’s all over now, but we would rehire in a heartbeat! She is such a gem and you will never regret booking her!

The only thing better than making memories, is reliving them. I love photography for so many reasons but the opportunity to freeze a moment in time and cherish that memory forever is reason number one. One reason I love wedding photography specifically is how it incorporates all my photographic passions into one day! Landscapes, street photography, documentary, portrait, macro...I could keep going. I love photography and hope my passion for my work shines through in your final gallery.

I'm Meghan Ann Imagery! I'm an artist, storyteller, and lover of love. It's fitting I ended up as a wedding photographer, right? I'm based in Connecticut but wishing for the dream inquiries that will send me to Alaska, Colorado, or some place new.

I found Meghan on TikTok literally the day after I got engaged and immediately knew she had to be our photographer. I wouldn’t let my husband take no for an answer — and I’m so glad I didn’t. From the very beginning, Meghan was friendly, down-to-earth, and made both of us feel totally comfortable (which was really important to me because I normally feel so awkward in front of a camera!). She did both our engagement shoot and our wedding, and was amazing at communicating throughout the whole process. She really took the time to understand our vision for a cozy, casual backyard wedding — and brought it to life through her warm, documentary-style photos that perfectly captured the vibe of the day. So many guests commented on how awesome the photographers were! Even though I leaned toward candid, documentary shots, Meghan was super flexible and helped us with some posed photos too, which turned out beautiful. She even helped set up our tattoo station (and got her own temporary sleeve — iconic), and sent us some Polaroids after the wedding, which was the cutest touch. Overall, Meghan was such a good vibe. It honestly felt like hanging out with a close friend who just happened to have a camera and a really good eye (: Can’t recommend her enough!
