Hiring Eivan’s for our wedding was a great decision! Our photographer Gregory I was professional and FUN! He kept us smiling throughout the day with his quirky personality! My fiancé does not care for photos so I’m happy we had someone working with us who could make him comfortable. He made sure to get multiple images even if it was just “one more”, it was never one more! We had actually hired a different photographer and we replaced him with this company. Worth the stress and money! If I had any tips for the company, it would be to have your photographers give a 30 minute warning before their contracted time is up. Weddings are so busy for the bride and groom, it is very easy to lose track of time. I think clients would appreciate a little heads up just so they can try and capture any photos they may have missed. Other than that, I have ZERO complaints. Such an amazing experience! 10/10 highly recommend :)

Kate Scott Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (8 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Elmwood Park, IL

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!

We can not recommend IG PHOTO VIDEO INC enough. We had Tetyana and Egidijus as our photographers and Irad as our videographer. We also were in contact with Ivan. He was extremely communicative throughout the entire process. From introducing us to Tetyana, Egidijus and Irad, How the process would happen from start to finish to getting our photos and videos back. The photos and video blew us out of the water. We are so in awe of the work and quality they put into our day. They were truly the best to work with from start to finish. The only thing is we have so many pictures I can not choose a favorite. (But that's a great problem to have) They truly captured my husband and I in our photos and videos and we are so blessed we came across their page.

Hi, I’m Connie—congratulations on your engagement. Thank you for being here and for considering me as your photographer. I take a thoughtful, hands-on approach and believe the experience matters just as much as the final images. I’m involved well before the wedding day—collaborating on vision, timelines, and details to ensure everything feels intentional and effortless. I love curated Pinterest boards, open communication, and creating imagery that feels elevated, timeless, and personal. This is your day, and it should reflect you. Let’s talk!

All I can say is Connie is hands down so much more than a photographer. She was so patient, kind, and positive when we had our elopement. We got down pour rain and she was quick to have plans to take us to get beautiful pictures. She was so thoughtful with doing things she didn’t have to do, like helping hold my wet dress, and so much more. Connie is extremely calming presence in a stressful and hectic day. We absolutely loved our pictures and all the special moments she captured without us realizing and was truly so special working with her!

A cinematic eye. --- A bleeding heart. --- An inclusive spirit. --- I've picked up a camera just about every day since I fell in love with photography in 2013. Though every shoot holds something unique, it takes a lot to catch me off guard after a decade in business. I pride myself on my ability to quickly connect with my clients, making them feel comfortable, cared for, and confident that they look great. Being a helpful and calming presence in the midst of your wedding is second nature to me. Basically, I try to treat people how I want to be treated: with fairness and understanding!

Awarded Best of Zola
Zach did such an incredible job shooting our city hall wedding! Having shot several similar ceremonies in the past, he was familiar with the space, knew exactly which moments to capture and where to get the best shots, and he even got there early and saved us a spot in line. After the ceremony and group shots were done, my husband and I spent an hour adventuring around the loop with Zach to take some couples shots. He has a tremendous eye for photography locations, and he captured beautiful moments of us by the riverwalk, under the L, and inside the cultural center. The entire experience felt very natural and so fun -- it was a huge highlight of the day. He got our pictures back to us at lightning speed, and they're all gorgeous. I'd recommend him to anybody.

I was that kid enchanted by Disney Princess movies and the idea of "true love". My true love revealed itself through photography. At 8, I grabbed my dad's camera and was hooked, thrilled to show people my world. I started with zoo animals, friends, and siblings, eager to freeze moments in time. As I grew, I learned from local photographers and knew by 17 that photography was my calling. Since then, I’ve captured love in all its forms: couples, new parents, best friends, and the joy of seeing your favorite band live. The world is full of magical firsts, and I'm honored to capture these moments forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
Having Kaitlyn as our photographer for our wedding was nothing short of a dream. From the moment we had our first call with her, I knew we were going to be so happy in choosing her. Firstly, her personality is so kind, caring, and matched so well with the vibe we wanted for our day - fun, full of joy, and easygoing. During the calls leading up to the day, she carefully gathered special details about us, what we wanted, and used those to capture the best moments from our wedding day. She was a joy to work with from start to finish. Now, the photos - we were amazed with the photo gallery Kaitlyn delivered (not to mention we got our preview the next day, and our full gallery a short time after; we really appreciated that!) the quality of the photos, and the candid moments she captured were so special to us. There are so many moments she captured where I did not even realize she was there, behind the scenes, getting the best moments of our love, and that is a true testament to her talent. Kaitlyn is so extremely talented, and we could not recommend her enough to anyone looking for a photographer for their event. She is exceptional at what she does, and she is a special person on top of that. And a special shoutout to her husband, Jake, who was her second photographer for our wedding. They worked seamlessly to deliver our dream wedding photos, and we are so happy. We get to relive our wedding day over and over with these pictures, and that is priceless.

We booked her for our June 2026 wedding, and from the moment we met during our engagement photos, we felt completely comfortable in front of her camera. She has such a genuine way of connecting with people that every session felt effortless and fun. On our wedding day, she went so far beyond taking beautiful photos. She kept us on schedule, helped brainstorm a solution when my dress needed a quick fix, placed my veil perfectly before key moments, and even stayed late so we could capture photos in my second dress. She was photographer, coordinator, problem-solver, and cheerleader all in one. Going above and beyond isn’t something she does occasionally—it’s simply who she is. Bare minimum is not in this woman’s vocabulary. It takes someone truly special to build a meaningful connection with every couple, and that connection shines through in every single photo she delivers. Looking through our gallery, we don’t just see beautiful images—we relive exactly how each moment felt. Booking Mayah was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. If you’re considering her or anyone on her team, don’t hesitate. It’s an investment you’ll be grateful you made for years to come.

Kriztelle is an amazing photographer! She made both me and my husband feel so comfortable during our elopement shoot. She guided us through the entire process with patience and ease, especially when we had no idea how to pose (lol). Her ability to capture genuine moments is incredible. The photos we received are absolutely beautiful, memories we’ll truly cherish forever. So grateful we had her as part of our special day!

Hi! I'm John, a wedding photographer based in Chicago, IL. I believe deeply that great wedding photography is about creating imagery that is as visually compelling, as it is emotionally significant. Weaving the images together to tell unforgettable stories. My distinct 'documentary meets fine-art' style is a product of my unrelenting commitment to my craft and the complete trust that my couples place in me. I primarily cover weddings in the Chicagoland area, but I will travel to any destination worldwide for those seeking an adventure.

As a young couple getting married, it was scary to trust a company to provide everything we needed, but we felt very confident when we talked with Steve. The communication with Steve was great and smooth! They offered a Photographer, Videographer, DJ, and Photo booth! Ron, Austin, and DeAndre were the dream team. If I could give more than five stars, I would.
