Wedding Photographers in Downers Grove, IL

Truly, I never expected to be as fortunate as I am, getting to wake up every day to do what I love: combining a fascination of all things visual with the art of storytelling. Tessa Maxine Photography was founded in 2012 from the belief that — more than anything else — love, connection and legacy are what matter most in this world. As a photographer, my passion is to connect, understand your style and vision and find out what's most important to you. Then, with an editorial approach, create a timeless way for you to remember all the heartfelt love and laughter that makes the imperfect perfect on a wedding day. 


With Deepwell, I do what I do because it means I can be a part of bringing joy on your wedding day.

That means not just getting the standard portraits, but going above and beyond to capture the stunning, private moments that embody the uniqueness and excellence of your wedding day.

Hey, I'm Kevin, a wedding and portrait photographer based out of Chicago along with my fur child, an energetic Siberian Husky named Qi'ra (nerdy Star Wars reference). I'm a lifelong Chicago native, Cubs fan, and fancy coffee aficionado minus the handlebar mustache. When I'm not behind a camera I'm usually planning my next travel getaway or trying to stay active at the gym or on a hike. That, or lounging on the couch eating way too much pizza while watching Netflix ... but no, definitely the first one, I swear.

They started shooting weddings and the rest is history!

Hey there, I’m Virge Simone and I want to capture your love story. One of my favorite photos is one of my late grandfather holding my now 19 year old daughter when she was just a few days old. The photo was taken by me and I would guess with a basic point and shoot camera so the quality is not the best, kinda blurry, the colors are washed out but I LOVE that photo. That photo signifies to be to always be present and in the moment, because that’s the last photo I was able to take of my grandfather. As a photographer, that photo tells a story, its dated, its memorable and its timeless.

Hi, I’m Claudia Kneebone. Wedding & Lifestyle Photographer based in Chicagoland, Illinois. I am a twenty somethin-year-old who lives near Chicago, IL. I enjoy oat milk latte’s, house plants, home decor, colorful florals, reading, and feeding people. I love and serve Jesus.

I like to describe my style as warm, romantic, and emanating joy.

I'm just a chick with a camera in one hand and a white monster in the other. I'm typically the type of photographer who is known for being a hype girl, one of the first to dance floor, and will be your BFF by the time the wedding roles around!

I'm Taylor, your favorite irreverent wedding and elopement photographer, dog mom, and the most fun you've had during a photoshoot since, like, ever.

Hi, I'm Emily! If you're here, then most likely you are newly engaged (OMG, CONGRATULATIONS!), or a couple looking to document and celebrate your unique love story, or a significant other looking to capture your getting down on one knee and asking the person you love the most to spend the rest of their life with you. I am HONORED you are thinking of me for these incredible moments!

Hi, I am Habiba. I am a photographer based in the Chicago Suburbs. I would say that I am addicted to taking photos and for that, there is no cure . . . except to take more. Photography started as a hobby for me back in 2013 when I bought my first professional camera. Initially taking photographs of friends and family. I slowly moved onto having my own clientele where I could capture their moments. I work as a consultant at a well-known health insurance company during the week, photographer by weekend, and mommy 24/7.
