Ivan and his team were great! From start to finish it was a very smooth process to book with IGphoto, we had an engagement shoot with him as well. The photos for both engagement and wedding turned out amazing. They look luxurious and classic and truly captured what a fun day we had. I’ve watching the highlight video they made for us about a hundred times, it was very well edited. Can’t go wrong booking them!

Zach Caddy Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (18 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Elmwood Park, IL

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 is an incredible artist and I am so glad we hired him as our photographer for both engagement and wedding photos. I am not very comfortable being photographed, and was wary of ending up with a lot of awkward smiles, but Zach is a kind, funny person who will help you open up, laugh and let your natural smile out. His interests beyond the camera—music, film, etc.—have influenced his style, capturing the feeling of incredible moments with a cinematic quality. His photos captured the cozy and moody, yet crisp and bright November day of our wedding perfectly, and I know I will enjoy looking at them, and finding new favorites for years to come. We highly recommend Zach, and would certainly hire him again!

We had our engagement photos done for free with Pedro, and therefore I didn’t really know what to expect from them. But he was absolutely fabulous, made us feel comfortable the entire time, shot some really creative and cool photographs, and edited all of them for us (like 75). Some of the photos he took are truly incredible and a really sweet capture of our love. Very moody and cinematic. Was about a 2 week turnaround time. Thank you, Pedro!

Awarded Best of Zola
TWA Photographic Artists were straightforward and direct in their communication, and kept us on schedule throughout our wedding day. Their work was great, capturing many timeless and detailed shots. However, at times they seemed a bit hurried when working with our wedding party and guests, though they remained attentive and eager to get the right shots. For example, the photographer remembered the little details that made our photos special, but we felt a bit rushed after the ceremony and didn't fully capture the joy of those moments. Overall, TWA provided solid photography services, but could have been a bit more patient and attuned to our desired pace for the day.

So there’s no “I” in team right?! While Captured Couture is the product of years of hard work that I built from the ground up. I have an amazing team because sometimes takes more than just me. For larger events or on occasions when I am already booked one of my team members will gladly assist with your event. We’ve covered hundreds of weddings together, and have refined our editing style and way of shooting to be completely consistent. You won’t be able to tell the difference. Pinky promise! No matter where you’re planning from when it clicks, it clicks.

My (now) husband and I chose to hire Jennifer from Captured Couture as our photographer for our wedding. We were both blown away by her images posted on her website and Instagram page and after having a phone interview we were convinced she was the one for us. Jennifer was communicative and so easy to work with. We were able to get a free engagement session with the purchase of our package which was awesome because we were able to meet her in person before our actual wedding. The day of the wedding there were a few minor hiccups as our wedding was the same day as the Detroit Pride fest, and we weren’t sure some of our desired locations would be accessible. Without a moment of hesitation Jennifer, who knows the city of Detroit incredibly well, was able to secure a location for our first look and our wedding party photos which turned out to be perfect. Jennifer and her assistant LeAnn captured every part of our wedding with some much care and attention to detail. Our photos are spectacular and we are so thankful for our photography team. Both my husband and I would definitely recommend Captured Couture to anyone looking for wedding photography.

Heyyy friends! I'm Clayton, the lead photographer and artist behind Lux Everlasting. We're based in Chicago's Logan Square neighborhood, and I've been shooting weddings since the summer I graduated high school in 2007! I make candid, cinematic images that feel like raw memories, rather than a forced photoshoot. My couples value real emotion, time with their people, and beauty that goes beyond perfect lighting and poses. Queer-owned, proudly LGBTQ+ affirming, and high-key just really fun to have at your wedding!

Awarded Best of Zola
Lux Everlasting was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer. From the moment we first spoke with Clayton, we were impressed by his kind, professional, and truly relatable personality. The quality of his work is truly stellar- it genuinely was worth every single penny for us. The photos and video footage he captured were absolutely beautiful; literally had me gasping at how perfectly our day was documented. My family loved working with Clayton too, they all complimented how much fun he was and how beautiful our photos were, and that they would find an excuse to hire him for something lol. Clayton also eased a lot of my anxiety with his calm presence, he even talked me through a difficult moment which was unexpected and greatly appreciated. We highly recommend Lux Everlasting for any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience. My husband and I absolutely adore Clayton as a professional, and also as the awesome human being that he is, and hope to be able to work with him again in the future. 10/10 experience all around. I wish I could add more than 6 photos!! I picked these to show the range of his work; candid, editing, posed, group shots, ect.

From the moment we booked, we knew we were in great hands. Our photographer was incredibly easy to work with from start to finish. Communication was seamless, she was always prompt and clear, and she made the entire planning process stress-free. On our wedding day, she was more than accommodating and truly went above and beyond to make sure every moment was captured. She had a wonderful eye for detail and somehow managed to be everywhere at once. We have not found a single moment we wished we had a photo of. Her ability to direct poses made everything feel so natural and effortless, which is saying a lot because neither of us are particularly comfortable in front of a camera! Looking back at our photos now, we are so grateful. She did not just document our day, she made it something we can relive over and over again. If you are looking for a photographer who is talented, professional, and genuinely makes your experience better, look no further. We cannot recommend her enough!

Hi there! I'm Emily Rose, the sole photographer + editor of your wedding photos! I have been shooting weddings for a decade and love connecting with my clients as much as I love photographing them! They feel like close friends by the end of the day. I am documentary-style, in that I never stop shooting. While I help with posing during portrait sessions to make sure you look your best, I also love capturing the laughter of guests, the teary-eyed parents, the flower girl running up to you and hugging you at first sight, the tiny details, the real smiles you share with your spouse + the quiet, intimate moments between you two throughout the day.

Awarded Best of Zola
I have a lot to say here so let me do a TLDR: if you’re here reading this review it likely means photography is important to you. And if that is true, please just book Emily (Hello Rose Photography) because it should be illegal how amazing she is. Send the message as soon as you possibly can. Like right now. Please. The long version: Emily is an INSANELY AMAZING photographer. Color, posing, vibe, attitude, patience, EVERYTHING. Photography was on my top 3 non negotiable list for me, truly the most important thing next to having our dog at our wedding. Leading up to our wedding, I would randomly see her photos and be like ‘omg those are beyond gorgeous I hope my photos look like that’ and then I’d notice it WAS HER. Validation I never knew I needed. If you’re on the fence, just do it. She’s the kindest, gentlest soul and it truly put us at such ease. And she meshed so well with our quirky sense of humor. She also had the patience of a saint with our high energy doggo and capture the actual cutest photos of her. She captured love I’ve never seen between us (it’s hard when you’re looking at your person but it’s even harder for someone to be good enough to capture it). Her candids are literally the best I’ve ever seen. Of me and my dog, me and my friends, my husband and his friends, idk she’s just INSANELY GOOD. I love candids, if you’re a candid person WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR. I promise, I will bet everything on it, you will absolutely not regret spending a single penny on Emily. Honestly, she should charge more. We also had the ABSOLUTE pleasure of working with Bridgid on our wedding day. She complimented Emily so well and truly, I didn’t feel like we had 2 photographers they were so supportive and in tune with each other. Bridgid also found us funny and loved our doggo too. She even threw her the tennis ball. These ladies work so well together that I truly could not tell you who took which photo. SEAMLESS. I truly missed their presence, outside of photography, when they left for the day. These angels probably still don’t know the impact they had on us but one day I hope they see this review and know how important they were (and are) to our day.

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 had an absolutely positive experience working with Kriztelle and Tethered Stories for our wedding and engagement photos this past year. She has an incredible talent for capturing both the big and the intimate moments, and she’s someone you can trust with your special day. Kriztelle was incredibly easy to work with. From our initial consultation, she demonstrated professionalism, responsiveness, and transparency. On photo shoot days, She has the remarkable ability to capture genuine emotions and candid shots, but she’s also more than willing to offer guidance and feedback when you’re unsure about what to do with your hands or face. I appreciated her thorough get-to-know-you questionnaire; she took the time to truly understand us and ensure that we had a seamless experience by the time we met up in person. We were also quite happy to have an engagement session as part of our package. It was a great opportunity to learn how to work together and on the other side of the lens before the big day. She also even went above and beyond by offering to help us fine-tune our timeline and wants for photos, which was a huge bonus! We highly recommend Kriztelle and Tethered Stories to anyone planning a wedding. Mayra, our second photographer, was notably just as fantastic to work with. Tethered stories has captured memories that we will get cherish forever - and we are so grateful! Ps. We also had the privilege of booking a photo/video package through Kriztelle and her collaboration with Diamond Peak Films. If you’re considering booking photo and video for your big day, I highly recommend it booking both! They work very well together.

John Foley Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (12 reviews)
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,600
  • Serves Elmwood Park, IL

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.

John was AMAZING from the beginning to the very end! We were married in August of 2024 the Friday before Labor Day weekend. John made sure every single detail was discussed & planned prior to our BIG day. He made sure the shots I wanted downtown happened even though the wait at City Hall took longer than expected. I cannot express my complete gratitude for all the beautiful memories John caught of me, my family, my husband, and my fur babies! 10 out of 10 I HIGHLY recommend!

We booked Well Told Weddings for our photographer and I would book them again! Sal was our photographer, he did a wonderful job, was so much fun and the photos turned out fantastic. He was on time and made sure to check if we had any other photos we wanted to capture before the end of the night. We booked with Steve, who was great to work with and the communication was spot on. I’ll let the photos speak for themselves!
