  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $2,695

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. ​

Carey Primeau Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
Crystal Lake, IL
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,250

Carey Primeau has been documenting weddings for 20 years and provides a supportive roll with honesty and flexibility. With a friendly, creative and artistic perspective, Carey will help bring out the best in you.

Carey was everything we could have hoped for in a wedding photographer and more. He was punctual, professional, and completely on top of the timeline from the moment he arrived, which immediately put us at ease. What really stood out was how comfortable he made us feel throughout the entire day. Neither of us are naturally confident in front of a camera, but Carey gave clear, calm direction without ever making things feel stiff or overly posed. He was warm, easy to be around, and blended in seamlessly- capturing real moments as they happened while still making sure we got all the “must-have” shots. And the photos speak for themselves. The shots are stunning- beautiful lighting, thoughtful angles, and so much emotion captured in a way that feels true to us. He caught candid moments we didn’t even realize were happening, along with gorgeous portraits that look effortless. If you’re looking for a photographer who is reliable, talented, and genuinely makes the experience enjoyable, Carey is it. We would highly recommend him to anyone and would absolutely hire him again. Five stars all the way.

Hey! Aaron and Becka here! We are wedding photographers based in the North Suburbs of Chicago. We have three kids; Judah (4), Jane (2), and Dan (6 months). Being parents is one of the sweetest gifts we have ever been given! When we aren't doing photography or ministry, we are either going for hikes as a family, playing music together, working on updating our 200 year old house, or hanging out with friends! We both love the shooting side of photography, but when it comes to the admin and post-creative, that's where Becka takes over! So, if you reach out, she will be the one chatting with ya!

Hiring Becka was the best decision we could have made for our wedding! She took care of every detail and was so easy to work with. The way she made us feel so at peace throughout the process of wedding planning was so unique and special. During pictures, she made the experience so personal and fun we barely felt like we were posing. Our pictures turned out better than we ever could have expected! She is so talented! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding photographer and already have to so many people!

Ken did an absolutely stellar job. I don't know many people who rave about their wedding DJ, and why would you, right? They play songs for about 5 hours, take requests, and that's about it, right? Not with Ken, not with Amp. Every minute of the night was thoroughly thought out and put together. Our wedding simply wouldn't have been as memorable with another run of the mill DJ.

Let’s create a ceremony your guests won’t stop talking about!

Awarded Best of Zola
Our experience with Rev. Dave was honestly a hit from the beginning! His personality is magnetic and you can tell he puts love and intention into the wedding ceremonies that he is a part of. He has different content up his sleeve (you’ll see when you book with him) to truly give you an unforgettable ceremony. Our guests could NOT stop raving about him and all of our guests thought that we had YEARS of personal family connections with him, when in reality we only had a 3-4 planning sessions. One of our close family friends even told my dad that our ceremony was the best ceremony he had ever seen and his daughter just got married (sorry girl!). All i can say is this: when you receive his pricing, DO NOT SKIMP. My (now) husband and i paid for this wedding ourselves, and i do admit that we went with the middle package because of our own hectic schedules and finances, but Rev Dave is WORTH IT ALL. You are (hopefully) only getting married one time, and one of THE best decisions you could make is hiring Rev. Dave!

The result: signature portraits that feel like paintings and a shoot that feels like hanging out with a friend. 300+ weddings. 151+ five-star reviews. A 10-photographer team. Zero cookie-cutter work.

Jerry and his crew made out wedding day incredible! They helped run the whole day, they got the guests seated, kept everything on schedule, and ensured that Ben and I didn't have to worry about anything. When our flowergirl got stage-fright right before walking down the aisle, Jerry swooped in to save the day and helped her find her mom. We initially didn't plan to do a grand entrance into the reception, but Jerry and the DJ (Megan from Music that Moves) made one happen last-minute so our flower girl could have a second shot ar throwing her petals. You're not just getting a venue at Parkway, you're getting a whole team who will make your event run smoothly. If we ever do a vow renewal or anniversary party, we will be back!

Meraki Salon Services was a pleasure to work with for our wedding day beauty needs. They were quick to reply to our inquiries and easy to get in touch with, which made the planning process much smoother. On the day of, the quality of their work was great and the looks lasted beautifully throughout the entire event. They were also flexible in meeting us at our hotel to provide the services, which was incredibly convenient. We were able to treat our mothers to a hair and makeup moment and our bridal party loved the results and not having to worry about their looks for the day. Everyone felt beautiful and confident. While the final looks were still stunning, we felt they didn't fully understand our vision - the bridal hair trial didn't fully translate, and the bridal makeup ended up more neutral than the requested pinky/peach tones with less dramatic eye makeup than planned. Overall though, it was a great value and we were happy with how everything turned out.

Full service, independent wedding florist serving all of Chicagoland and Southeastern Wisconsin including Milwaukee. I believe that your wedding flowers should reflect your blended, personal styles and accent your attire and event space, not steal the show.

I would absolutely recommend Annette for florals for your wedding! Our flowers turned out absolutely amazing! Annette was so great throughout the entire process. She is the sweetest, most kind woman and showed us that she truly cared about helping make our day special! She nailed our vision! Whenever I had doubts or was unsure on a specific design, she always helped me make a decision with her expertise, but I loved that it never felt forced and she was very particular about making me feel that it was truly whatever I wanted. This was huge! Annette was so professional and was so easy to work with. I don’t know what we would have done without her. Thank you, Annette!
