Awarded Best of Zola
Wedding planning is not for the faint of heart, and — aside from finding the right life partner, finding the right team to coordinate your perfect day is paramount. Amber and Events with Ambiance were the perfect partners for us, two creatives with a dynamic vision for our wedding. Working with Amber gave us the freedom to create our day on our own terms, as she guided us through the process, stepped in to pull us together when it became too overwhelming, and, ultimately, brilliantly brought our vision to life. From flawlessly coordinating our venue and vendors to managing any and all hiccups and day-of stress (and wardrobe changes!), Amber was consistently ready with a smile, calm reassurance, and an immeasurable wealth of knowledge. With the help of her and her assistant Chelsey, our day was so gorgeous, memorable and personalized that our guests are still raving!

I've always been a creative at heart, my own mother is an artist so maybe it's genetic? However, photography was never on my radar.

After the debut of those beautiful, phone quality captures, the inquiries came rolling in! I was pleasantly surprised and within months decided it was only right to invest in proper gear. Officially established in 2021, I've been beyond blessed with the chance to meet so many wonderful people and capture their once in a lifetime moments! Anya Grace 🖤

Steve was amazing to work with. He makes everything so personal and takes the time to get to you know his clients to create a film that genuinely shows who you are as a couple. I have never been filmed before, and I was nervous about it... but I didn't even notice he was filming half the time because he made us so confrontable. Not only did he film the us, but he had a drone to capture the whole atmosphere of our weekend. He was so professional and FUN to be around and captured the important relationships that you would have wanted in your forever wedding film. A HUGE THANK YOU FOR helping keep the memory alive for the rest of our lives. I have had the film now for a few days and seriously need to stop watching it but i cant...its beautiful.

We’re Lights and Sound Media Weddings—your one-stop dream team for unforgettable, high-energy wedding experiences. We’re not just here to document your big day—we’re here to elevate it. From cinematic videography to swoon-worthy photography, epic DJ sets, seamless coordination, timeline planning, and even custom social media content, we do it all with flair, flexibility, and heart. Every package is handcrafted around your style, your story, and your budget—because no two love stories should look the same. We’re obsessed with getting every detail right and making you feel celebrated, not stressed.

Working with S&LM was pretty good. They communicated to me closer to the event, and asked me for everything they needed and more. The pictures I have seen so far look great, and the small video I have seen looked good as well. They made sure I got almost all of the specific photos I wanted, and had a take-charge attitude while photographing, and making sure everyone was in the right place and looking great! The DJs were pretty good, but didn't know all the specific songs we mentioned that we wanted played for certain dances/moments. They also didn't announce the first dance until they were hitting the play button, which threw our choreography off until we asked them to restart! Unfortunately, some people missed our dance because they didn't know that it was happening. It still worked out in the end, and all the right songs were played at the right moments. All in all, I would definitely recommend Lights & Sound Media to prospective couples.

Your story - your love - is beautiful and I can't wait to capture it in images you will treasure for years to come. I believe in real moments and heartfelt conversations over coffee, and in the kinds of images that remind you of the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments together.

We are passionate about storytelling through images that elicit an emotional response, using both film and digital mediums. Our style is unobtrusive which allows us to capture fleeting moments of joy, love, and tenderness with intentionality.

“WOW. Just WOW!! I honestly can't say enough good things about Lynzie and her team at Bonphotage. Booking Bonphotage was easily the best decision we made for our wedding and I truly could not imagine my wedding without them. From the first phone call with Lynzie, I felt completely at ease - her professionalism, knowledge and enthusiasm left us feeling that choosing Bonphotage for our wedding photography and videography team was a no-brainer. Leading up to the wedding, Lynzie and her team were responsive and detailed. They were instrumental in making sure our timeline was carefully tailored to ensure we received every image we desired while never feeling rushed or unnatural - and that is how we could best describe our whole experience with Bonphotage - ABOVE AND BEYOND! During the wedding day, the Bonphotage team struck the perfect balance between making sure we looked flawless by offering advice on poses, while still making us feel completely candid and natural! Our family and guests commented many times that they barely even noticed that our pictures and videos were being taken all night long! Lynzie, in particular, was meticulous, with razor-sharp senses anticipating every moment and emotion so carefully. The photography and videography team worked together seamlessly in a cohesive and planned manner. Truly a DREAM TEAM! But the BEST PART?! - the pictures were absolutely BREATHTAKING!! STUNNING!! and FAST! We got our entire wedding gallery in two weeks!

Hi! I'm Christin, a destination wedding photographer based in Chattanooga, TN. Specializing in timeless and artful imagery, my expertise goes beyond just taking photos; it's about crafting a visual story that reflects the joy, love, and unique spirit of your celebration.

Working with Christin at Christin Sofka Photography was one of the absolute highlights of our wedding journey. From our very first inquiry to the days following our wedding, Christin has been nothing short of phenomenal—responsive, professional, fun, and such a warm presence throughout. We initially found her because of her stunning photography style, but it was her incredible personality that sealed the deal. From our first call, she genuinely wanted to get to know us—our story, our vibe, our vision—and it showed in everything she did. Before we even officially hired her, Christin was helping us find a venue that aligned with our dream, connecting us with other amazing vendors, and offering support in ways far beyond the role of a photographer. She was in it with us every step of the way. I’m usually awkward in front of a camera, but somehow Christin made it feel effortless and fun. She created an environment where we could just be ourselves—and that joy, love, and personality came through in every photo. Our pictures shine with who we are. Every idea we had, she embraced and brought to life in ways that exceeded our expectations. She was just as excited as we were the entire time—and honestly, I can’t imagine our day without her. Christin is not just a photographer—she’s a true artist, a cheerleader, and a calming, creative force you’ll be so lucky to have by your side. If you’re considering hiring her: do it. You’ll be singing her praises too.

Hi, I'm Samuel! Chicago based wedding and elopement photographer here to give couples a truly relaxed and down to earth experience. Being photographed shouldn't be uncomfortable or boring!  Telling love stories through photos brings me immense joy. 

We were so grateful to Samuel who was able to document our city hall ceremony on a very last minute request during the end of year holidays. (Are you free next weekend?) We were drawn to the documentary style of his work and thought it was a fitting way to remember a special moment in a basement of Chicago's City Hall. Leading up to the day, we texted and chatted about places to do portraits after and Samuel was very patient and helpful in suggesting places that felt right for me and my partner. Not only did he have the inside scoop on what the city hall ceremony was going to be like and what was going to happen, but he was also great to hang out with in line and and get to know better. We both felt very comfortable working with Samuel and the nerves of working with a professional photographer for the first time went out the window. I can only imagine how amazing the experience would be to work with Samuel with more time to prepare or at locations a little less drab than a city hall basement!

We were thrilled with our flowers from Anthology on Main! Katie is a true artist. Her suggestions were excellent and workmanship beyond belief. The entire order was perfect. My beautiful bouquet sits in a vase on my desk and I still enjoy it every day.

Was referred to ESA from someone in my opinion whom was less than professional in her communication. So there was a little trepidation at first. However, from our first interaction with Christena at ESA to the end of the event Christena conducted herself in a professional and exceptional manner. From her initial communication, to vendor recommendations to all of the questionnaires to ensure the events moved smoothly were all investments that showed Christena cared. We used ESA for day of wedding coordination as well as a surprise birthday party the day before the wedding g. Yep, busy, busy, busy. Christena was there for a walk through at the venue which was 2 hours from her home base. She stayed in contact throughout the months leading up the the events and take the lead with vendor a onto or so before. She helped to keep us on track and was available via email with short turn around times. Although their was a LOT of planning prior to the wedding, Christena was more than helpful keeping us on track and ensuring the wedding day could be enjoyed without worrying about last minute pop up issues, and there were a few. Her team was able to resolve a bartender issue causing minimal interruption for guests. In the end Christena felt more like a guest as much as a vendor for each event. We are grateful for the service Christena provided and would highly recommend her and her company, ESA to anyone wanting a coordinator to help ease the stresses of such and important and joyous day!!
