My husband and I hired Edgar (Anchor Studios) as our photographer for our wedding on July 7, 2024. He did an amazing job!! Since we started working with him for our engagement pictures up to the wedding and after, he has been great at communication and very professional. He went above and beyond by helping us create a timeline for our wedding because didn’t know how weddings usually go. He worked so hard on the day of our wedding to get the best shots, and was very kind and helped us a lot with organizing order of events. He had great ideas for poses and was very mindful to get all the pictures we wanted with family members and bridal party. And even better than all of this, when we got the pictures, they came out amazing!! It’s very clear that he put a lot of hard work into making them look incredible. He is a very talented and skilled photographer. We were blown away by how they turned out! We are very thankful for how hard he worked and how great he made the picture look! We highly recommend him!

A decade in professional theater. Nine years as a fine art street photographer. Now I shoot weddings. The theater taught me comfort—how to help nervous couples relax and forget the camera. The street work trained my eye—finding extraordinary frames in ordinary moments, chasing light like it owes me money. 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. Camera-shy? Creative? Both? Let's talk.

Jeremy is absolutely fantastic to work with; he is not only professional but incredibly positive and brings great energy to any event. Our wedding was the greatest day of our lives and we are so thankful Jeremy and his team were there to document it as it really comes across in the photos. His prices were very fair and we hope to work with him and his amazing team again in the future!

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot express how amazing Angela was. She has not only a super warm personality. But also an amazing work ethic. I got the package for two photographers and they were both phenomenal. While I was getting ready(we are running about 30 minutes late) she was out taking photos of the venue, the lay flat photos, and the other details pictures. She even held onto our rings for me because the bridal suite was a wreck and I didn’t wanna lose them. All in all my experience with her was a 12/10 experience. She was one of the people who made my wedding less stressful!

What started out as a hobby, evolved into a great passion. With a camera on hand for every event, I spent my lunch money as a young kid developing films at the photo store. I became so fond of capturing as many organic moments as I can in photographs and fell in love with the idea of telling people's stories in images rather than words. I started venturing into professional photography right after my own wedding to my high school sweetheart, Erick, which was back in 2014. I LOVE everything wedding-related. My favorite to photographs are the wedding details, the bride and groom portraits and anything that will make me either cry or laugh!

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Michelle was the best choice my wife and I made during our wedding preparations. Her photos are stunning. True professionalism, skill, and a keen eye for capturing those happy moments. But best of all, she has a warm personality which made working with her feel easy. She was able to photograph our Indian wedding with such class, that these memories will remain with us forever.

Along with my partner, our house is full of love with four boys, three cats, and dog. I like to create art, make things with my hands, work with plants in a garden, go on hikes, explore the world, talk one-on-one with people, and I like to laugh.

Jake is so much more than a wedding photographer—he’s a true visual storyteller. Every photo he took is filled with emotion, intention, and artistry. Looking at our photos now, I’m instantly transported back. He captured not only the big moments but also the quiet ones: stolen glances, joyful guests, the delicate details of our table settings. He saw everything without ever being in the way—so calm, so observant, so low-maintenance that we barely noticed him, yet he gave us the most complete and beautiful memory of our wedding. His attention to detail and his ability to see the full picture and the tiny moments is truly special! Jake made us feel totally comfortable in front of the camera, never forcing poses or interrupting the flow of the day. Instead, he brought our photo ideas to life with his own artistic touch—elevating them beyond what we imagined. If you’re looking for someone who will give you timeless, meaningful, and artful photos while letting you fully experience your wedding day—Jake is the one.

I’m Reyna, the heart behind Sea Circus Weddings. With over 12 years of experience as a wedding photographer, my passion for wedding photography is inspired by my grandparents’ enduring love; their wedding photos are cherished pieces that guide my work. I strive to create heirloom, film-inspired images that celebrate genuine emotions and joyful moments. I live in a charming Tudor house with my husband, our two little girls, and our cat, Goose. In my free time, I enjoy camping, cooking, and getting lost in a good book.

Awarded Best of Zola
how do you start a review for someone that means so much more to you than just a photographer, a wedding vendor, a person that is capable of capturing all of your happiest moments? From the very start, Reyna was attentive, thoughtful, generous, and kind. She’s not the generic sort of “kind,” either. She is the shirt off her back, put others before herself, drop everything to make sure everyone is doing well type of kind. From the first interaction with Reyna, we knew that we would be so lucky to have her throughout our engagement period and wedding day. planning and paying for a wedding all on your own as a 28 year old couple is no easy feat, but Reyna worked with us every step of the way and was more than considerate. I am forever grateful that I stumbled upon her gorgeous photos and insanely aesthetically pleasing Instagram profile. I thought “no way are we going to be able to snag a photographer this talented.” Reyna made all of our dreams come true. She was able to capture the most gorgeous engagement photos of all time - I think she might even have magical powers and was able to curate the perfect sunset complete with sprinkles of rain and a rainbow. People, including us, were absolutely blown away by the pictures, how she was able to really capture our personalities, and how she added her touch of magic. We really didn’t think that we could love photos any more than our engagement pictures. And then she sent us sneak peaks from the wedding day. Reyna continually blows us away with her talent. I truly think I was able to keep it together emotionally on the day of because I had Reyna’s sweet, calm, and reassuring presence with me every step of the way. We have gotten so lucky with all of our wedding vendors becoming friends and family to us and Reyna is at the top of that list. Now that we have met and loved Reyna in our wedding era, we cannot wait to have her with us for all of the rest of our eras in life. We might even have to make up some life events just so we can hang out with her again. Never in my life would we feel this lucky to have someone like Reyna in our corner and I hope for everyone to be able to experience the talent, warmth, and love that Reyna exudes in everything that she does.

While I call Chicago my home these days, I am *more* than willing to travel to your neck of the woods - just ask!

There aren’t enough words that could truly explain how skilled Daniel is behind the camera. I legit looked through his wedding albums for FUN months before our wedding. Every time someone asked me about our wedding photographer I would bring up the albums and gush over the absolute works of art. There’s one photo of a bridal party member in a circle mirror and there’s another mirror behind her and mirrors are doing mirror things? ANYWAY it is so beautiful I would hang it in my house, and I don’t even know those people! Not every photographer has an eye like Daniel. Some photographers get the same kitschy shots. Daniel turns your big day into ART that you’ll want to look at forever.

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.

We were nervous about engagement photos as neither of us are super comfortable in front of a camera, but she made us feel at ease, knowing exactly how to guide us and make us feel natural. We are a type-A couple, so Lauryn's professional platform was another huge benefit to working with her. Lauryn's portal houses all your information, she sends regular check lists and questionnaires to ensure she has everything she needs and is extremely communicative. This made us feel so supported throughout the planning process. Lastly, on our wedding day she was such a pleasure have with us. She corralled our friends and family to get things done efficiently without sacrificing quality--allowing us to enjoy our big day to the fullest.

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!
