We can not recommend IG PHOTO VIDEO INC enough. We had Tetyana and Egidijus as our photographers and Irad as our videographer. We also were in contact with Ivan. He was extremely communicative throughout the entire process. From introducing us to Tetyana, Egidijus and Irad, How the process would happen from start to finish to getting our photos and videos back. The photos and video blew us out of the water. We are so in awe of the work and quality they put into our day. They were truly the best to work with from start to finish. The only thing is we have so many pictures I can not choose a favorite. (But that's a great problem to have) They truly captured my husband and I in our photos and videos and we are so blessed we came across their page. This company is 100 percent worth the money and we wouldn't have changed a single thing. You guys were amazing in person and in your work! You can definitely tell they love what they do by the work they produce. A huge thank you to Tetyana, Egidijus, Irad, and Ivan for helping make our day extra special and a day we can look back on in 50 plus years!

Zach Caddy Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (18 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Northlake, IL

A cinematic eye. --- A bleeding heart. --- An inclusive spirit. --- I've picked up a camera just about every day since I fell in love with photography in 2013. Though every shoot holds something unique, it takes a lot to catch me off guard after a decade in business. I pride myself on my ability to quickly connect with my clients, making them feel comfortable, cared for, and confident that they look great. Being a helpful and calming presence in the midst of your wedding is second nature to me. Basically, I try to treat people how I want to be treated: with fairness and understanding!

Awarded Best of Zola
Zach did such an incredible job shooting our city hall wedding! Having shot several similar ceremonies in the past, he was familiar with the space, knew exactly which moments to capture and where to get the best shots, and he even got there early and saved us a spot in line. After the ceremony and group shots were done, my husband and I spent an hour adventuring around the loop with Zach to take some couples shots. He has a tremendous eye for photography locations, and he captured beautiful moments of us by the riverwalk, under the L, and inside the cultural center. The entire experience felt very natural and so fun -- it was a huge highlight of the day. He got our pictures back to us at lightning speed, and they're all gorgeous. I'd recommend him to anybody. Thanks again, Zach!

Hi, I’m Connie—congratulations on your engagement. Thank you for being here and for considering me as your photographer. I take a thoughtful, hands-on approach and believe the experience matters just as much as the final images. I’m involved well before the wedding day—collaborating on vision, timelines, and details to ensure everything feels intentional and effortless. I love curated Pinterest boards, open communication, and creating imagery that feels elevated, timeless, and personal. This is your day, and it should reflect you. Let’s talk!

All I can say is Connie is hands down so much more than a photographer. She was so patient, kind, and positive when we had our elopement. We got down pour rain and she was quick to have plans to take us to get beautiful pictures. She was so thoughtful with doing things she didn’t have to do, like helping hold my wet dress, and so much more. Connie is extremely calming presence in a stressful and hectic day. We absolutely loved our pictures and all the special moments she captured without us realizing and was truly so special working with her!

Audrey was the photographer for our wedding in March and I could not recommend her more highly!! The planning process was easy - she guided us through all of the big decisions before our big day and helped us pick a shooting location outside of our venue. I probably should have opted for an additional hour, but Audrey went above and beyond to make sure we got all of the shots we wanted within a short amount of time. I'm not normally comfortable taking photos but Audrey was a great director and made me feel so comfortable. The photos were gorgeous and really captured the love and specialness of the day. And the cherry on top was that she was affordable! Thanks so much Audrey for everything!!!!

Hiring Emily for our engagement and wedding weekend was the BEST decision!! We had a three-day Indian / Western fusion wedding, and Emily did an incredible job covering all the different events, venues, attire, and colors. Ahead of the wedding, Emily was highly responsive and provided guidance on our photo locations. During the weekend, Emily was such a JOY to be around, keeping up with the energy of our wedding party and families. She was highly flexible during the weekend while keeping to our schedule. She came early to capture all the details and rolled with the punches when we changed the location of our photos last minute. The photo turnaround for our sneak peaks was unbelievable and all the photos are incredible – truly captured the happiness and joy we felt during the weekend! Some finer points that are worth celebrating: - We were very picky on selecting a photographer who could photograph and edit mixed race couples and families well: Emily provided many examples ahead of booking and delivered on our photos as well!! - This was Emily’s first full-scale Indian wedding, and you would never be able to tell!! She captured all the right moments in the most beautiful way. In a traditional South Indian ceremony, there are many action shots and Emily’s ability to capture everything on the mandap blew me away. - Unfortunately, Tyler was busy for our wedding weekend, but Emily selected the two best second shooters we could ask for – Corey Bienert for Saturday and Aaron Bean for Sunday. All three of them matched the fun yet calming personality and vibes of our family, friends, and overall day. All in all, if we did it all over again, we would book Emily every time!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
We booked her for our June 2026 wedding, and from the moment we met during our engagement photos, we felt completely comfortable in front of her camera. She has such a genuine way of connecting with people that every session felt effortless and fun. On our wedding day, she went so far beyond taking beautiful photos. She kept us on schedule, helped brainstorm a solution when my dress needed a quick fix, placed my veil perfectly before key moments, and even stayed late so we could capture photos in my second dress. She was photographer, coordinator, problem-solver, and cheerleader all in one. Going above and beyond isn’t something she does occasionally—it’s simply who she is. Bare minimum is not in this woman’s vocabulary. It takes someone truly special to build a meaningful connection with every couple, and that connection shines through in every single photo she delivers. Looking through our gallery, we don’t just see beautiful images—we relive exactly how each moment felt. Booking Mayah was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. If you’re considering her or anyone on her team, don’t hesitate. It’s an investment you’ll be grateful you made for years to come.

We had an absolutely positive experience working with Kriztelle and Tethered Stories for our wedding and engagement photos this past year. She has an incredible talent for capturing both the big and the intimate moments, and she’s someone you can trust with your special day. Kriztelle was incredibly easy to work with. From our initial consultation, she demonstrated professionalism, responsiveness, and transparency. On photo shoot days, She has the remarkable ability to capture genuine emotions and candid shots, but she’s also more than willing to offer guidance and feedback when you’re unsure about what to do with your hands or face. I appreciated her thorough get-to-know-you questionnaire; she took the time to truly understand us and ensure that we had a seamless experience by the time we met up in person. We were also quite happy to have an engagement session as part of our package. It was a great opportunity to learn how to work together and on the other side of the lens before the big day. She also even went above and beyond by offering to help us fine-tune our timeline and wants for photos, which was a huge bonus! We highly recommend Kriztelle and Tethered Stories to anyone planning a wedding. Mayra, our second photographer, was notably just as fantastic to work with. Tethered stories has captured memories that we will get cherish forever - and we are so grateful! Ps. We also had the privilege of booking a photo/video package through Kriztelle and her collaboration with Diamond Peak Films. If you’re considering booking photo and video for your big day, I highly recommend it booking both! They work very well together.

John Foley Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (12 reviews)
  • Fine art style

  • Serves Northlake, IL

Hi! I'm John, a wedding photographer based in Chicago, IL. I believe deeply that great wedding photography is about creating imagery that is as visually compelling, as it is emotionally significant. Weaving the images together to tell unforgettable stories. My distinct 'documentary meets fine-art' style is a product of my unrelenting commitment to my craft and the complete trust that my couples place in me. I primarily cover weddings in the Chicagoland area, but I will travel to any destination worldwide for those seeking an adventure.

John was AMAZING from the beginning to the very end! We were married in August of 2024 the Friday before Labor Day weekend. John made sure every single detail was discussed & planned prior to our BIG day. He made sure the shots I wanted downtown happened even though the wait at City Hall took longer than expected. I cannot express my complete gratitude for all the beautiful memories John caught of me, my family, my husband, and my fur babies! 10 out of 10 I HIGHLY recommend!

One of the greatest compliments I’ve ever received was that my photographs were beyond stunning and worthy of being featured in a wedding magazine—and I couldn’t agree more. Noelle’s passion and artistry in photography are truly spectacular. Every photograph from my engagement session and wedding was elegant, timeless, and far exceeded my expectations. Noelle and her team were an absolute pleasure to work with, and I trusted them completely with my wedding day vision, which they brought to life beautifully. I couldn’t recommend her enough!

Melo Photo + Video was created with one thing in mind: you and your wedding day. Our local city photographers are there to capture each candid moment: whether you’re planning an intimate micro wedding with your closest friends and family, or an elaborate affair with everyone you know. Melo Photo + Video offers customizable packages at practical-budget friendly prices.

Melo Photo Video made our wedding day so easy from start to finish. Their communication was simple and straightforward, which took stress out of the planning process. When we got our photos back, we were blown away by how thorough and professional their work was. They captured the beauty of my new family in ways we didn't even know to ask for. Every shot felt intentional and showed the real moments that mattered most to us. We would absolutely recommend them to any couple looking for photographers who care about getting it right.
