I’m a 36-year-old husband to Samantha, dad to Silas and Fiona, and servant to our extremely wiggly companion, Moxie. I’ve spent 12 years documenting 400+ weddings, but I don’t really see myself as just your photographer. I’m your best friend at your side who happens to have a camera, documenting your day on digital, film, and Super 8. I’m also a stay-at-home dad, philatelist (postage stamp collector, (lol), LEGO freak, craft beer nerd, camera collector, and owner of an orange refrigerator because apparently normal refrigerators weren’t weird enough for us, haha.

Hi there! I'm a Chicagoland native and currently live in Aurora with my lovely wife Bridget. I first picked up my parent's camera when I was 12 and since then have never been without one. I love being creative behind the lens and making new friends along the way. I also love Oreos... One of the best things about this artform is being able to document the love people have for each other. To capture that moment in life whether it's a date to the fair or the big day.

Hi, I’m Joe! I’ve been photographing weddings for over 20 years because I love capturing authentic, heartfelt, and timeless moments while keeping the day fun and stress-free.

Featured in Modern Luxury Chicago Bride, and award-winning online and print magazines, I become couples’ go-to person on the day, building trust and creating images they’ll treasure forever. — Joe

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!!

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.

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.

From the first 'Yes' to the final dance, I’m here to capture the real, organic, beautiful stuff.

Hey future couples! I truly love weddings. I love the insane amount of beautiful in-between moments that inevitably happen and I get to capture in a stealthy way that makes me feel like a spy, but also the moments that I get to help create! Posing in a way that creates movement and memories and doesn't just end up being a part of your to-do list but a favorite part of the day! I adore laughs between kisses, the golden glow at sunset, a bride twirling or frolicking (bonus if there's a forest!) and forehead kisses. I love when you're willing to laugh, have fun, and be completely swept up in what is a beautiful but incredibly fast paced day!
