Photography By Jill Emmer

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,900
  • Serves Milledgeville, IL

I’m Jill — a Wisconsin wedding photographer with over 13 years of experience and a serious love for honest, emotional moments. I’m drawn to real connection, great light, and the kind of photos that feel alive, not overly posed or polished.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jill was fantastic to work with. She helped me feel comfortable even though I usually feel awkward posing for pictures. My husband and I had such a great experience with Jill for our engagement photos that we asked her back to photograph our wedding and we would do it again. All our photos, from both photo events, are simply stunning. She captured our energy, the scenery, the natural light, and made us look great!

From the moment we first contacted Forest City Photographs, we were impressed by their attentive, warm, and professional communication. Joel and his team have an incredible eye for capturing precious, genuine, and timeless moments. On our wedding day, Joel (and Tyler!) managed to beautifully document the most vulnerable and special moments, transporting us back to the best day of our lives every time we look at the photos. The value they provided is truly priceless, and we couldn't be happier with the incredible work they delivered. We are absolutely blown away. You can clearly tell from their work as well as a single conversation with them, that they LOVE what they do and they pour their passion into these photographs. The amount of gratitude we have for Forest City Photographs is immeasurable!! ️ We would choose them a million times over and over again!

Hooke Photo

As a small boy, I would sit for hours watching my mother hand-color portraits for a local photographer, during the cold winter months, by a fire in our family room. From there I began taking my own pictures with my first box camera. Fast forward to a restless twenty-something working as a microbiologist, taking weddings and portraits on weekends. Eventually I graduated college with an M.A. in Photography and started out in Chicago, assisting numerous photographers, shooting everything from oranges to weddings. I have been fortunate to have worked all over the world. Photography is more than a job, it’s an avocation, a passion, it's what I do.

On such an important day, Thom makes everything easy. No stress at all to work with. Very professional. The pictures were great. Thom shows true passion with the photos. Its more then just another day at the office. 11/10 would recommend to everyone.

Erik Anderson - Photography, LLC.

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Milledgeville, IL

I'm a 35-year-old husband to Samantha, our son Silas, daughter Fiona, and our wiggler companion Moxie. I've been a wedding photographer for 11 years, having photographed over 300 weddings and countless other sessions! My hobby is also my job, and you bet my wife loves that, haha. I am also a stay-at-home dad, a philatelist, a Lego freak, and a craft beer nerd, and we have an orange fridge, haha.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are not from the area so the first time we officially met Erik was the day of our wedding. From the moment we met, Erik’s energy was calm and confident. I can’t think about my perfect day without thinking about how incredible he was. As soon as he arrived, the energy in the room lifted. He was funny, cracking jokes and also very focused in the details. Without even realizing it—or maybe he did—he helped me carry the mental load of the day. It felt like he knew his role was more than just capturing beautiful photos. He reminded me to be present and to truly live in each moment. He also went with the flow and made any and all of my requests happen like taking photos yards away or running up flights of stairs for that perfect picture. And let me just say—it was 100 degrees outside. Yet there he was, juggling multiple cameras and bags, fanning my dress, offering me his personal fan, and handling all the little things that only someone who is a true master of their craft would even think to do. Choosing Erik as our photographer was, hands down, one of the best decisions we made. He is truly one of a kind. My husband and I are incredibly grateful for his time and are honored to have had him photograph our day.

Meg Dunn Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Milledgeville, IL

Timeless | Romantic | Classic Wedding photographer - I believe in the idea that "great photos are created from personal connection." I put my heart and soul into making sure the couples I work with have the best possible experience and end up with images that we can both be proud of. My favorite part of taking photos is being able to find the special moments within your big milestones. It's those candid times, along with the significance of the occasion, that come together to create your favorite memories and it's my job to capture those through my visual storytelling.

From start to finish, Meg exceeded every expectation. The weather took an unexpected turn during our engagement shoot as it does in Chicago in March- Meg didn’t bat an eye she stayed positive, improvised effortlessly, and made the day stress free. Despite the winds and cold the photos were stunning I actually couldn’t believe it she is truly so talented. The turnaround for photos is quick and she communicates every step of the way. We already got our full gallery of wedding photos and I am just blown away by the moments she was able to capture, I’ve looked at them so many times and I feel like I’m still seeing them for the first time. Her editing style is stunning, it’s clear that she puts so much intention into every photo. I cannot recommend Meg enough!

I'm Courtney! I care not only about providing you with sharp, authentic and colorful images on your wedding day, but helping you to be fully present on your wedding day so you remember all the big and little moments.

Courtney was AMAZING! I found Expedition Joy on instagram when she was doing a giveaway contest for a free Engagement session. To our suprise and BIGGEST BLESSING— we won! When my husband and I met Courtney, we instantly clicked! She was so easy to talk to and made us feel so comfortable so quickly! She was very intentional about building trust with her and having a friendship as well! We had great conversations during our shoot and got to learn about her aswell! After our session, my husband and I both agreed that we NEEDED Courtney to be a part of our big day. We expressed our excitement with Courtney just as much as she expressed hers with us! During the planning months, she was so easy to reach and made us feel confident that she would go above and beyond for us on our special day and she DID. Courtney showed up camera in hand and started shooting the second she walked in the door! She was ON IT. She continued to encourage the bridal party and family so they felt comfortable as she was taking photos. She was so intentional with everyone! Courtney and her second shooter were the life of the party on the dance floor! They had a blast with us and it was so much fun for all of our guests to cheer them on when they went to bust a move in the center circle! Courtney continued her 5-star reputation throughout the night and even went above and beyond to stay past our contracted time for our grand exit! She took the most memorable photos of our day, we will always remeber her when we reminisce on our beautiful photos! She truly is Expedition Joy

My love for photography began in Rockford, IL, where I discovered storytelling through a lens. Over the years, I’ve captured Midwest landscapes, national parks, and life’s meaningful moments. What started with local events and concerts grew into a passion for weddings and portraiture. I believe the best photos come from genuine connections, so I prioritize building relationships to understand your story and vision. Whether celebrating love, connection, or a fleeting moment, I’m here to calm nerves, share laughter, and capture memories you’ll cherish forever. Let’s create something timeless and yours.

Working with Tyler Yomantas Photography was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. His communication style was easy, efficient, and comfortable, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of his work was truly exceptional - creative, informed, and worth every penny. Tyler is our go-to for everything photography related, as his portfolio speaks for itself. He has an eye for the smallest detail and made every step of the way a comfortable one. With his extensive background and experience, Tyler truly captured all the special moments of our wedding day with care and expertise.

I'm Chrissy and I'm a documentary wedding photographer with 10+ years of experience who fully believes that your life deserves to be documented truthfully. My focus at your wedding isn't to steal you away from your family and friends for hours to make "art," but to empathically capture the moments and relationships present at your wedding. Your wedding photos are the single most important wedding investment you'll make. After the day is done and over, they will be what tethers you to your memories of your day. They will be the heirlooms you'll pass down to your grandchildren to hang on walls and sit on bedsides for generations to come.

We loved Chrissy! She was fun and easy to work with, and I loved that she provided color and black/white photos. She did everything on our list, and listened to our ideas as well. Nothing felt forced or over-posed, but she was great at guiding next moves when needed. Will definitely use again for future photos.

We can't recommend OLAS enough! Our photographer, Victoria, was amazing—super bubbly and made us feel comfortable right away during both our engagement and wedding shoots. She was so fun to work with while remaining highly professional and knowledgeable. The variety in our photos was incredible, but some of my favorites were the natural ones that perfectly captured our personalities. The rest of the OLAS team was also fantastic, helping us develop a detailed timeline and sharing portfolios of potential photographers to choose from. We received our photos quickly, and they were beautifully edited and of exceptional quality. Be sure to check out OLAS—and definitely ask for Victoria!

Between 2023-2024 of wedding planning, I had found Albany Capture on Zola and decided to book their services after doing some research. Wedding planning didn’t go accordingly at first to the point where I had to change the venue and date. Luckily Albany Capture was still available in spite of all the changes and was flexible in working along with us. My new husband and I just got married on May 2, 2025 and we can’t thank Pedro of Albany Capture enough for capturing our special day! Pedro is not only talented, he is so kind and professional at the same time. Even my guests kept telling me what an awesome photographer/videographer he is!

The Talented Photographer was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Alec's communication style was fun, professional, and incredibly personable. He had a true passion for his craft that shone through in every interaction. The quality of Alec's work was absolutely stunning - we got a wonderful variety of candids, formal shots, and editorial-style pictures that captured all the special moments of our day. Alec has an incredible eye for the right shots, and the final photos are absolutely gorgeous. Despite a complicated location schedule that I was worried about, Alec made the whole day seamless, traveling to over 4 different spots to ensure we got all the groupings and special shots we wanted.
