AJ Abelman Photography

  • Serves Manteno, 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.

We can take care of everything from table decorations and themed centerpieces to costumed servers, anything we can do to ensure a dynamic and memorable occasion for our clients.

I absolutely cannot say enough good things about Pear Tree Catering! Shelly and her entire team are so top notch - I can't imagine anyone going with anyone else! From the first day we met with Shelly, she assured me all would be prefect - and when the wedding day came - it was exactly that - perfect! I am a very type A person (In a nice way), but it makes me worry about all of the details - but, in this case, every detail was covered and even though I still worried, they were so on it, they did so many things I had not even thought of - every little thing was done and the wedding just flowed along perfectly! On top of that, the FOOD WAS PHENOMENAL!!!! I don't think I had one guest not tell me how super-impressed they were with the food! OMG...it was out of this world! Usually you expect "wedding food", but Pear Tree makes fantastic food as if you were out dining at a fine restaurant! And they did this working with a barely there kitchen and their own set-up....unbelievable! They did our bar service, and we even had a gelato station afterwards that everyone LOVED! We were so impressed with everything....I found myself thanking Shelly (owner) over and over again bc I knew they would be good, but I didn't realize until it all happened, how absolutely fantastic this company is. I highly highly recommend!!!! You will not be disappointed!

Such a delight to work with Saumya! We did a fall couple photoshoot. Due to the covid-19 pandemic, other than a quick photoshoot during our wedding, we hadn't done photos as a couple before. My partner is camera-shy and she made sure we both felt comfortable to be ourselves during the shoot. She is very attentive to your vision for the shoot, and creates a warm environment where the shoot feels like fun. Our pictures turned out great!

Hey guys, we are a collective that has come together to better serve our community. They say “if you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” Benjamin and Kelsey met at a coffee house when Kelsey was a cute girl with a camera in hand. Needless to say, they discovered that they had a mutual passion for more than just photography. We are chasers of our next adventure. Whether that be on a windy mountaintop, or in a deep valley for intimate quite moments. We are obsessed with capturing images of our couples that truly resonate with them.

If you are of the opinion that the photographer is one of the most important roles in your wedding, you are looking in the right place. Ben of Boxcar was exactly what I wanted in a photographer: easy to work with, flexible, personable, adventurous, respectful, responsive, passionate and generous. In addition to being an all-around great guy, Ben also knows how to use a camera. I'm not sure I am qualified to try and classify his style, but I would say it has a certain photo-journalist quality to it. A quality that conveys realism, but is also very artistic. Long and short of it is, I highly recommend this guy. You will not be disappointed.

We couldn't have been happier to hire Emily for our videography. Like many other 2020 couples, we downsized our event to be an intimate ceremony. We last minute decided to hire a videographer, and luckily for us Emily was available! Our day was pretty chaotic with a lot of moving pieces, and she went with the flow with patience and kindness. By the end of the night, we felt like she had been a friend forever. The video is absolute perfection, and we are so thankful she saved the day last minute and gave us an impressive video to share with our family and friends who could not be in attendance. If we could give more than 5 stars on every category, we would!

I run a photobooth business in New York and I’ve gone through a lot of backdrops over the years. Some are fine, most just didn’t look that vivid or high quality. This flower wall totally exceeded my expectations. I got the white one and used it at a wedding recently. my guests loved it! People kept lining up to take pics in front of it, and honestly, it looked great in every single shot. Super full, no weird plasticky shine like a lot of the cheaper ones out there. Setup was quick too, which I really appreciated. You can tell the quality’s there. Definitely planning to use it again and order a new color for future events.

Kim is based out of the Chicago/NWI area, but travels nationwide.

Rev Kim Rumph was an absolute pleasure to work with as my couple's wedding officiant. She has a super friendly and kind-hearted communication style, and was incredibly reliable and punctual throughout the entire planning process. On the day of the wedding, Rev Kim was professional, fun, and did an amazing job of capturing the audience's attention and making everyone feel relaxed and engaged. I would highly recommend Rev Kim to any couple looking for an officiant who will go above and beyond to make your wedding ceremony perfect!!
