Their pictures were everything we wanted, capturing the golden sun, the magic of the moment, our happiness and laughter.

Ok, so we weren’t actual clients, but hear me out! My niece was getting married in the same venue as her wedding. Unfortunately, my niece’s wedding coordinator didn’t show up. Candice had a few quick moments while waiting for her wedding party to go inside and noticed a couple details that were off. She took a brief second to make a suggestion and fix my niece’s dress before she walked down the aisle. You can tell craft is her passion! She didn’t take any attention from her bride, in fact, I’m sure without this review the bride would have never known. However, when something is your passion you enjoy what you do and share your heart when you need to. I just wanted to say a quick THANK YOU for those few fleeting moments of assistance.

LM Studio could not have been a better choice for our wedding day! Kristin, Shelby, and the whole staff were absolute rockstars, especially the week leading up to the wedding! They were so helpful, and since we didn't have a planner, I literally feel like I could not have done it without them. In addition to the team, the venue was absolute perfection. It was so beautiful, and getting married in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows with that view was absolutely magical. We're big Chicago people, so being so close to the park and just a quick ride to the river was amazing for photos. We were a little worried that it would be a bit tight, but honestly it was a great size for our guest count of 150 people. Our guests kept raving about the space and the food! I cannot have asked for a more perfect day and I would 1000000/10 recommend LM Studio for your wedding day!!!

Kriztelle is an amazing photographer with eye for detail, and above all, an amazing person. She is reliable, trustworthy and loves to help you sort through the details of your wedding. Our marriage was held at Starved Rock State Park on February 2nd, and we were hit by a blizzard. While some of the (few) attendees cancelled because of the hazardous road conditions, Kriztelle didn't hesitate and got in her car! The result: Amazing pictures and great times! Aside from her talent for photography, she is a delightful person too. We had great fun talking to Kriztelle, and learning about her other endeavors and some of her personal life over the trajectory of planning our marriage. Kriztelle really takes te time to get to know her clients. She spend hours talking to us, sending us links, and meeting us in person. When we received the photos, both of us were overjoyed about the pictures and their quality. They really are the perfect compliment to an already perfect day. Do yourself a favor, and hire Kriztelle – she is a great photographer, with amazing vision, ideas, and overall a great person to work with and talk to. Thank you so much Kriztelle, for all you have done for us: the amazing pictures, the hours spend talking and laughing, the trips, the attention for detail, and the lovely stories about you and your husband.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about The Arbory as a wedding venue. From the moment we stepped onto the property, we were blown away by the modern jungalow vibes and stunning surroundings. The space is so beautiful and full of living plants that helped us stretch our floral budget while still creating a gorgeous blossoming space! The team at The Arbory was incredibly accommodating and flexible, allowing us to set up the space exactly as we envisioned for our special day. The bridal suite is amazing and provided a great space for us as a couple to step away and connect throughout the nice. I would also note that we loved the built-in photo/video booth! One of the most impressive moments was when they seamlessly flipped the ceremony space into the reception area, quickly and stealthily. It was truly a magical transformation. And I have to give a special shoutout to Shay, who went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was perfect and that we were happy.

Audrey and her staff responded to our emails and calls within the same day, often within just 5-10 minutes, which was incredibly helpful during the hectic wedding planning process. They were direct and attentive, making us feel like their top priority.

I started coordinating/event planning in 2017 by creating, managing, and executing my own nurses brunch which started as a 12 person event and now has grown to hosting over 150 attendees annually. Over the last 3 years I've had the pleasure to plan, coordinate, and execute multiple weddings. What started as a personal hobby has transitioned into a business, and it has been a pleasure to be able to serve couples on their big day. My flat rate fee of $900 bundles all the needs of the couple from start to finish.

I have worked alongside Kylie in a few different event planning capacities, and her attention to detail and vision for flawlessly executing and coordinating celebrations is excellent! Kylie has years of experience coordinating within the realm of non-profits; including fundraising events, a yearly brunch for nurses, and volunteer appreciation dinners. In addition to this, Kylie has executed the coordination of several weddings. I would highly recommend using Kylie as your event coordinator. She will always bring the fun, energy and attention to beauty that every event deserves.

I made a conscious decision early on in my career that I wanted to LOVE what I do and do what I love. With a bachelor’s degree in graphic design and photography you could say I’m one of the few that stuck with my major and still love it to this day. I’m a helpless romantic, a wife, a mother, a worldwide traveler a marathon runner and a wedding photographer. Deciding who will bring your memories to life is one of your most important ones. When the whirlwind and excitement of the day is over, beautifully captured images will be what help you revisit the romance, emotion and spirit of all of those little moments.

Working with Christine was one of the best choices we made in planning our wedding! Her passion for photography and working with soon-to-be married couples shines through in everything she does. She was so kind, welcoming and warm from the start, which really helped us open up during our engagement photoshoot. Her level of professionalism is unmatched and her attention to detail is reflective in all the beautiful pictures she captured and edited of our special day. She also helped us craft a perfect timeline for our wedding weekend that allowed us to capture all the photos we wanted while still enjoying our day with our family & friends. Don’t hesitate to book Christine and team - we highly recommend!

Hangout Lighting was a fantastic choice for our wedding reception venue. Jen's communication throughout the planning process was extremely prompt and helpful. I was looking for a space that was already partially decorated and set up, one that had some indoor and outdoor space, as well as one that allowed us to bring in any vendors of our choosing. Hangout Lighting delivered on all these points. We loved the lighting (of course!) and that the beautiful farmhouse tables and chairs were already perfectly in place. Jen offered a lot of flexibility in the timing of the day as well, so we could choose the number of hours that fit our event. I wish we could have celebrated past the 10pm last call and, looking back, might have started our event earlier in the evening to have more time. But all of the rules and guidance were extremely well communicated ahead of time, so we knew what we were getting into. The free street parking was plentiful, and the location worked great for us. Very glad we were able to celebrate our wedding at Hangout Lighting during the first year that they were hosting events in the space, as I think we got a great deal as well, having compared prices with some similar places in the area. Thanks Jen and staff!

Hello friends! I've recently moved to Chicago from Indy and I'm so ready to explore this new city together while capturing your memories. I founded Steady Hand Photography in 2019 after graduating high school, and hating college. I have a lot of different sessions under my belt, but weddings and engagements are what I'm most passionate and excited about. I hope to capture your day even better than you imagined!

Steady Hand Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! From the very first conversation, Leah's communication style was easy, smooth, fun, and loving. She made us feel so comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of her work and value was nothing short of perfect - clean, timely, and truly professional. Leah captured so many sweet, special moments with my parents, friends, and family. She was incredibly flexible with our schedule and however we decided to spend our time. We even had extra time for more couple and family photos than we had originally planned and she was on board! Leah is so sweet, like a friend, and it was very easy to be comfortable with her. As someone who can be a bit awkward in front of the camera, she made my engagement and wedding sessions feel smooth and easy. We are over the moon with our wedding photos and cannot recommend Steady Hand Photography enough!

My name is Kate Scott Daly, and I can't wait to meet you! I'm a Chicago native and have been a professional photographer for nearly a decade. I am obsessed with capturing the perfect moment that will make you gasp and say "Oh my god, this is amazing!" Being a queer woman, it is so important to me that you feel safe, loved, and beautiful every step of the way. If you're looking for someone you can relax with and just be yourself, you've found me! Let's face it: it can be awkward being in front of a camera. Even I feel nervous sometimes! I understand that anxiety and will do everything I can to make you feel fabulous!

We cannot recommend Kate enough! From the moment we met her, she made us feel completely comfortable and celebrated our love with so much enthusiasm. As a queer couple, it was important for us to work with someone who not only respected but truly celebrated queer weddings, and Kate went above and beyond. She took the time to help us clarify our vision for our wedding photos, which was especially helpful since we only had 6 weeks to plan our wedding and felt a little overwhelmed by the process. She was a great guide and we immediately knew we were in good hands! Kate’s associate Ryan shot the photos on our wedding day and they captured every special moment—from the big emotional vows to the smallest, most intimate glances—with such artistry and care. The photos are breathtaking, full of life, and truly reflect the joy of our day. Right when Ryan arrived, they jumped in with capturing photos of small details and worked to capture everything we wanted for our special day. Kate and Ryan were both an absolute delight to work with—professional, fun, and incredibly talented. If you're looking for a photographer who will make you feel seen, respected, and celebrated while delivering stunning photos, look no further. We are beyond grateful for Kate and Ryan and will cherish these photos forever! Thank you for making our wedding memories so magical!

The quality and value of their work was truly impressive. They kept guests of all ages dancing nonstop for the entire 3 hour set, seamlessly transitioning between genres and decades. We received so many compliments on the song selection and the incredible vocals. They really made the party atmosphere we envisioned come to life and kept energy levels high from the introductions to the last song. If you're looking for a band that will compliment your wedding style while also encouraging everyone to have an absolute blast, I highly recommend checking out Sorry For Partying!

Sierra Marie Photography

  • Photographer
  • Classic style

I’m a wife and Jesus lover who is dedicated to serving and loving my clients well, by giving them a unique experience. I offer custom wedding packages that are designed with my couple in mind. I also provide custom timeline creations, and help with anything (even non-photo related)! By the time my couple gets their wedding images, they’ve not only gained a photographer that will produce great images, they’ve gained a friend - and to me, that’s priceless.

My husband and I could not have chosen a better photographer for our wedding day than Sierra! We met her at a wedding expo at our wedding venue, Hoosier Grove Barn. She was so friendly and we could tell that photography is her passion (even better, she got married at the barn so she knows all the good spots!). She made sure we were on the same page with the photos we wanted and helped ease a lot of my anxiety on our wedding day. Our engagement and wedding photos came out amazing! I'm so happy to have found Sierra and if we need a photographer in the future, we will definitely be reaching out to her. Thank you for everything!! (:

We were lucky enough to book Canal Street Eatery & Market for our wedding on October 19th, 2024. Working with the Canal Street Team to create our event was absolutely incredible – everyone who works here is kind, warm and provided top tier service to us and our guests. Elise, the senior sales manager for catering and events, is an absolute rockstar. She ensured that our day went off without a hitch and worked very closely with us on all of the details that were important to us and our wedding day. She is extremely detail oriented, responsive, and above all else an incredible person. We love Elise!! Aside from the amazing team of people at Canal, the venue itself is absolutely jaw-dropping. Gorgeous high ceilings, perfectly decorated with a funky, yet simplistic design. It is truly the perfect setting for any party – and the pictures speak for themselves! We hardly added any of our own décor aside from our floral pieces and it was all the space needed. By utilizing the main dining space as well as their sister bar only a few steps away, we were able to have a seamless evening filled with delicious food, family and friends. We really cannot recommend Canal Street enough! Seriously, have your wedding here and come back again and again to relive the memories.
