Ligia Chiu Photography Film 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Evanston, IL

Hi! We are Mark and Ligia Chiu- a Chicago based photography/videography husband/wife team. I started Ligia Chiu Photography about 10 years ago when I was searching for a creative outlet during my very science courses of pharmacy school. What started as a simple hobby capturing moments for my close friends, soon blossomed into something more profound and my passion for photography has grown steadily over the years.

We knew the moment we got engaged that we wanted Ligia Chiu to be our wedding photographer! She took the time to understand our vision for the wedding, scouted out potential locations beforehand, and guided us every step of the way. Right away, Ligia surprised us by asking for a list of "must-have" photos. She was all about capturing our moments. On the day itself, she had this incredible ability to make everyone feel comfortable and relaxed. When we received the photos, it was like reliving the entire day, but with the added bonus of Ligia's artistic eye. She has a true talent for capturing the essence of the day and the personalities of everyone involved. We HIGHLY recommend Ligia Chiu to anyone looking for an exceptional wedding photographer!

We are a husband & wife duo based in Chicago focused on natural light, candid moments, and letting love shine. We create moving & cinematic films that you'll want to watch again and again. We offer trailers, short & long feature films, and would love to be a part of your wedding day!

Awarded Best of Zola
There are 423 views of our feature film and 230 of the trailer, and I swear they are all from me. That's how often I watch our wedding videos. And we weren't even sure we wanted a video! Ivana and Steven captured our special day in the most special way. They picked the perfect sound bites and married them with memorable moments that were seamlessly choreographed to the beat, lyrics, vows, and speeches. People are constantly commenting on the unique use of editing and special effects that are not typical in wedding videos and add so much character and life to the films. Ivana and Steven worked so well with our photographers and to top it off, they are just so gosh darn nice and smiley. You can't help but feel (really) good around Ivana and Steven - which is exactly how you want to feel during your wedding and when you look back on it.

AJ Abelman Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Evanston, IL

I didn’t get into the wedding industry because I was the little girl dreaming of my wedding day. I love story-telling, I love love, and I love people who want to laugh and have a great time because they realize that life is short and beautiful. Wedding photography is all of those things at once; every time I go to work it’s the best day of someone’s life. How cool is that?

Oh my GAWWWD! AJ is the BEST. Like seriously - hire her right this second! I cannot emphasize enough how grateful I am for the way that she shows up as a person and as a photographer. I am the more extroverted of my partnership and AJ did an incredible job making my partner feel at ease during our engagement shoot and our first look. She knows exactly what to say to get a nice photo that doesn’t read like “I’m being forced to take pictures”. From Day 1 (honestly, even before we hired AJ), we knew what to expect. She is communicative and easy to get a hold of. After a brief “get to know you” session, she builds three personalized packages based on what you’re looking for (and the names of each package are the best part…just you wait). Engagement Shoot: Our engagement shoot was so fun! AJ gave us a few suggestions and we ended up taking photos in and near the Montrose Bird Sanctuary. Talk about a GORGEOUS spot for photos. AJ is a great conversation maker and makes those who are less comfortable taking photos feel at ease. Her direction during our session made for spectacular photos (which we used for our save the dates and got lots of compliments on). We got sneak peeks within a day or two and the full gallery was high quality. Wedding Day: The package we selected was for 10 hours of service. AJ showed up early to where I was getting ready. Her second shooter was with my partner. Both of them were lovely during the day and brought positive, calm vibes for the duration of the day. The combination of posed and candid “getting ready” shots were well balanced. Our first look was at Garfield Park Conservatory and she and her second shooter did a great job communicating with each other so that my partner and I didn’t accidentally cross paths until it was “go time”. AJ is a great people wrangler - she made sure that our shots at Garfield Park were just us and communicated with other guests to make these shots happen. When we got to our venue, AJ and her second shooter got through our family portraits with haste so that my partner and I could relax before our ceremony. I was blown away by our sneak peeks, which we got several days after our wedding. Hiring AJ will be one of the best decisions you make for your big day.

Tequila Weddings

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Evanston, IL

Thank you for stopping by and looking through my work. I approach wedding photography with two philosophies: One is to be photo-journalistic. Capturing those unexpected moments, a flirty glance, a secret kiss or a burst of laughter. These are the small details and intimate moments that tell your story. My other philosophy is to be editorial. To direct, compose, and create interesting shots. These are the pictures that will be high-impact, dramatic and creative. Although I have a photo-journalistic approach throughout the day, I understand the importance of formal family pictures. So, be assured we will get all of those as well.

Awarded Best of Zola
Cesar's has been serving the City of Chicago for over 30 years, our website is killermargaritas.com. When we met Abel ( Tequila Weddings ) we knew it would be a great business opportunity since our signature drinks have Tequila. We've partnered with him for small intimate weddings, showers and bridal parties. It's always a pleasure to work with him. We host various vendors at both locations but by far he is the best and easiest to work with. if possible we would only partner with Tequila Weddings. His professionalism is unmatched and his enthusiasm for his clients is unparalleled!

This review is long overdue! If you are looking for amazing food and service for your wedding, cocktail party, corporate event, or honestly, ANY event catering and service you need, you can’t go wrong with Lisa and her team at Kuma’s. One of the top three important items we wanted to concentrate on for our wedding was the catering (food and service). We have been big fans of Kuma’s for a long time which led me to look at them for our catering needs. We looked at a few places which we thought would work for our vibe, but after meeting with Lisa, we knew we had to have Kuma’s catering. Starting with the tasting, refining the menu before the day, as well as the actual day, Lisa was extremely responsive and communicative and really worked with us and our budget to make sure our day was memorable and special. Their sliders are exceptionally delicious (make sure to get the chicken Iron Maiden), and despite them being known for their burgers, Kuma’s has the capability to accommodate all sorts of dietary restrictions including vegans, vegetarians, those with gluten free and dairy allergies, and even the pickiest of kids! We had nine kids attending our wedding and I was concerned they would not enjoy the sliders as much as the adults. Lisa offered to provide a tray of chicken tenders with sauces for the kiddos to accommodate them to go along with the mac and cheese we had put on the menu. Moreover, everything is prepared fresh and never frozen, which is remarkable in today’s market. The basil vinaigrette used for the house salad was made fresh the day of and if I could, I’d buy a bottle every week. Furthermore, there are special items you can only get with catering, and we highly suggest ordering the buffalo chicken bites, jalapeno popper bites, and especially the artichoke dip. They were out of this world amazing. Everyone left extremely satisfied and we still get compliments on how amazingly delicious the food was, not to mention the exceptional level of service. Lisa was extremely attentive and beyond helpful with set up and clearing and made sure we didn’t have anything to worry about at the end of the night. Nick, our bartender, was super helpful with last-minute tasks before guests arrived, and made sure everyone had a drink and were taken well care of. As I said before, we were big fans of Kuma’s prior to our wedding and this experience just cemented our love for them even more. We will definitely use them for our catering needs in the future. If you are looking for something unique and special that will have everyone remembering your event in the best possible way, we highly recommend you book Kuma’s!

We know you dream of an extraordinary wedding day. Let Jewell Weddings help make that dream come true. The beauty of a Jewell wedding is legendary. Whether simply stated or extravagant, every wedding we cater has the signature Jewell Weddings style, that “step beyond,” which has set us apart for decades. Our consultants are passionate about entertaining, combining creativity and expertise, so that even the smallest detail is not forgotten. With a knowledge of Chicago special events, extending beyond just weddings, we will make sure that everything, down to the last fork, fits your style.

We couldn't be happier with the service provided by Jewell Catering. My now-husband and I first contacted Jewell 14 months before our wedding and loved them instantly. From the initial tasting, we were consistently impressed with their professionalism and quality. Everyone we worked with was a delight, both during the planning process and on the day of our wedding (we initially worked with Katherine and then Jennifer in the final stretch before the wedding). Throughout the planning process, both points of contact were always quick to respond to our queries, on top of any changes we should be aware of, and generally a pleasure to work with. I got a ton of compliments from our guests on both the quality of the food and the quality of the service, and I can't think of a thing I would have changed about their work. 10000% recommend!

It is also a priority of ours that your film resonates with your spirit. That it represents you, your story, your love, and your style authentically. That's why we get to know you and your partner well and cater to your preferred look.

My husband and I recently got married in December, 2023. I'm so grateful we hired Rick and his team to be our videographer!! I would highly recommend using them. Rick was very professional and supportive throughout the entire process. We set up a few calls while being engaged to prepare for the day. He also worked really well with our photographer to gameplan for the day. This was HUGE because they were able to work together to obtain all the shots needed and didn't step on each other's toes. Rick put together a 2 minute clip of the day, and I watch it everyday! The shots he chose and the music he tied with it was so meaningful. It was a perfect video to showcase the day. I shared it on social media. He also put together a full 45 minute video of the day that includes special events and speeches of the day, so we won't forget anything special that happened! Again, we are so grateful we worked with Rick. He captures all the special moments and now we have his work to look back on the wonderful day! Thank you!

I've been photographing weddings now for over a decade, and if I'm being totally honest with you, I had expected to burn out on this gig years ago. Instead, here I am still falling more deeply in love with it -- with those hugs and big laughs and tears and nervous jitters, and all the big and little moments that make up your days. Every second of it feels so special to me, and the fact that I get to capture that will never cease to blow my mind and fill me with gratitude.

We absolutely loved Brooke!! She was able to efficiently get people where they needed to be on the day of. Her documentary style makes you feel at ease and you’ll still get those perfectly posed moments too. She was so helpful placing accessories and flowers for the perfect shot. As the bride, i felt less stressed when Brooke took ahold of the day. We can’t thank her enough!!

Hello & welcome! I have been a filmmaker and cinematographer for 8 years. I like to think working in different realms of video and film has given me a unique perspective. I see many wedding videos that look very similar, and frankly lack 'heart.' I am driven to infuse every wedding film with that special quality; hard to describe but easy to spot when you see it : )

Circle Dot Wedding Films was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding videography. From our very first interaction, their communication was fast, clear and incredibly helpful as we planned out the coverage for our big day. On the wedding day, their team was lovely to be around and did an exceptional job capturing all of the most memorable moments - from the emotional first look to the lively dance floor. The artistic final film they delivered was truly stunning, showcasing their talented and creative approach in a way that feels timeless. I would highly recommend Circle Dot Weddings to any couple looking for a videography team that will beautifully preserve the magic of their wedding day.

Hi, I am DJ James. I have 20 years of DJ experience, including hundreds of weddings and other gatherings. I utilize all the latest MP3 and Lighting technology that will make your next event a big success! My main mission is to provide ultra low cost DJ & Lighting services in combination with ultra high production value to all off my clients. Many DJ's and DJ companies nickel and dime their potential clients to no end and then have the audacity to provide sub-par performance and use outdated or just plain cheap equipment. Not so with DJUj. All my equipment is updated and I always use state of the art equipment.....Yorkville, Shure, Mackie, JBL, QSC, Sony, employing backup components. There is never a charge for set up/break down, and I do welcome all of my clients to see me live if they would like. This is something many DJ's & DJ companies will not do as they do not know who they are going to send out. You always get me and only me.

James was amazing. My husband and I wanted to have the perfect blend of nerdiness and class, and James helped us pull it off. We didn't get him much direction other than our special dances and play instrumental music during dinner, and he independently played instrumental game music for us. It was absolutely perfect. When the dances start, he played the perfect songs to keep everyone on the floor. It was a wonderful experience working with him.

I was born and raised in Ukraine where I studied at a law school. When I moved to the USA in 2016, I dramatically switched my career path from a lawyer to a digital artist. I got a degree in Media Arts and Filmmaking and started shooting dance, fashion, music, and became a wedding videographer located in Chicago.

What an experience! You can stop searching now! This is the best wedding film crew. We spent a LOT of time searching thoroughly everything about weddings, planning, and vendors. Then it was time for the videographer and we got some recommendations from our friends. We fell in love with Sofiia’s beautiful style and watched a few of her works. She doesn’t simply film a wedding - she creates a story, she connects dots, and she sings it with her own words. It’s amazing. Help yourself - hire Sofiia as your wedding videographer!
