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.

What makes us tick? How rad and unique our clients are. We flex our creativity in hopes of creating work as diverse as you are. Most of your day doesn't need our direction - it is perfect the way it is. When we do see the perfect lighting, or a gorgeous setting, you better believe we will suggest it.

Six years of taking bright, colorful, fun wedding photos in the city has taught me how to deliver a complete gallery of your day told in an artistic, meaningful, and unobtrusive way--because I'm here to document your day, not to direct it. As much as I love taking photos (it's truly my favorite thing in the world!), I believe your wedding is about celebrating all your people being in the same place at the same time + kicking back and enjoying while I make sure all those memories are on camera.

Chicago-based wedding and elopement photographer. I like to make my clients take off their shoes or at least get bare and honest about their love in front of my camera. I love to explore the urban environment with you and make your wedding portraits feel real and true to your life in the city. But I also take any chance I get to drag you to the woods or the beach for some barefoot wedding portraits. Aren’t we so lucky to have those right here in the city!

In our studio, we believe that weddings are a celebration of love and individuality, and our style reflects that.

Our team of talented photographers brings a fresh perspective and a keen eye for capturing candid, spontaneous moments that unfold naturally throughout your wedding day. We believe that the most memorable images are often found in the in-between moments, the laughter, the stolen glances, and the genuine emotions that make your love story unique.

Hi and thanks for viewing my page. My name is Ruben and I have been a photographer for a long time. I started this journey when I was 17 years old. Back in the film years as we like to call it. I’ve worked and still work for major studios in Chicago that contract my services and do many wedding under my own label. Please contact me for more information.

We're passionate about building genuine connections with our clients, which allows us to document their special moments in a way that feels both natural and extraordinary.

I picked up my first 35mm camera in High School and I don’t think I’ve put one down since. I knew I had something special when I could make people feel comfortable in front of the camera within ten minutes of meeting me. I truly believe that each one of us comes into this world with a purpose, and I know that mine is to document life & love through my lens.

We are a close-knit family of photographers, filmmakers, and designers with a kindred passion for storytelling. Our vision for a collective studio was dreamed up to answer the problem of frustrated brides and grooms waiting ages to see their photos or just get an email back and the problem of artists burned out on business-running because it’s impossible to do it all.

Hi, I’m Nicole, the eye and heart behind Valeo Photography. I believe photography is more than just taking pretty pictures. It’s about presence. It’s about catching those little moments between the big ones: the exhale before you walk down the aisle, the squeeze of your mother’s hand, the way your person looks at you when you’re not even watching. I’ve spent over a decade photographing weddings across Canada, Africa, the U.S., and beyond. I’m especially drawn to multicultural , inclusive and culturally rich celebrations. If you're looking for photography that’s real, elegant, soulful, and rooted in story—you're in the right place.

My background is in Creative/Conceptual, Fashion and Commercial work. I have over 7yrs of Video experience and 12yrs Photography experience. I bring a lot of technical, fundamental, and creativity into my work. Minimalist at heart. I like to think you can see me in my work.
