Hi, I'm Abi! I'm an Illinois + Tennessee wedding photographer passionate about capturing your day as it truly unfolds. My approach blends documentary storytelling with gentle guidance, giving you space to be fully present while I preserve the real moments, genuine emotions, and little details that make your day yours.

“If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. Abigael went above and beyond in every possible way! From the moment we met, she made me and my husband feel comfortable, excited, and like absolute royalty. The photos? SLAMMING. Every single shot was stunning! Emotional, dreamy, and timeless. She captured moments I didn’t even know happened, and somehow made us look even better than we felt on the best day of our lives. Not only is Abigael insanely talented, but her energy and dedication were unmatched. She hustled, hyped us up, and made sure every little detail was captured perfectly. I’m still in awe going through our gallery! If you’re on the fence, you should have booked her yesterday. Your future self (and your wedding album) will thank you! Thank you Abigael!”

Born and raised in Joliet, IL. but now based in Pontiac, IL my husband and I love to travel all around the state and also out of it. Since I was a kid I've always loved photography and always had a camera I could get my hands on ready. It mostly consisted of my older sister's old cameras but I would make it work. I’ve been photographing weddings professionally since 2017. I like being the friend in the background taking pictures of you while you take it all in. That's the feeling I like to give my clients, posed and candid pictures.

Hi there! I'm Stefan, a wedding and portrait photographer based in Central Illinois. I've been capturing special moments through my lens for the past 9 years, and I can't imagine doing anything else. Photography has always been my passion, but it wasn't until I started shooting weddings and portraits that I truly found my calling. There's something incredibly special about being able to document life's most important moments - the laughter, the tears, the joy, and the love.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Our first reason we were drawn to Stefan (besides the amazing photos) is the fact that he is LGBTQIA friendly. We had our concerns about being comfortable in front of a photographer if they were not. From the moment that Stefan walked in the door and got to work we knew we had made the right choice. He made the day feel so easy, pulled us to the side at just the right times, while also making sure we had plenty of time with our guests, took whatever pictures we asked, and made us feel so comfortable. We could not have asked for a better person to photograph our wedding day! Thank you Stefan! You have no idea how much you did for us throughout the day just by being so easy to work with!”

As an experienced wedding photographer who has photographed over 150 weddings in ten states, I've come to love joyful, adventurous couples who adore their friends and family. My couples tend to care most about genuine emotion and tender moments of the day and having timeless, classic, happy photos that will stand the test of time. They can't wait to have a stunning album full of the story of their wedding day to look at for years to come and share with generations. They see the wedding as the start of a beautiful marriage and care more about their marriage than making their wedding a production.

I never once had to worry and stress about photos. Day of the wedding, she completely killed it. She was still her happy self but was able to organize us and snap some amazing photos. She worked with me on some odd family and friend dynamics and eliminated any worries I had. She did a fantastic job of catching the perfect small moments, some of which I didn’t even know she was capturing. The photos are all so naturally beautiful and I can’t even begin to describe how much we love them.

“Rachael was our photographer for our September 2023 wedding. There is no question that she was the absolute best person we could have had for such a special day. From beginning to end Rach helped us plan and execute our vision. We were not using a wedding planner, so she helped us get a lot of details and timelines on track. She also made sure we had fun and were able to relax through the whole process. On our wedding day Rach showed up ready to go and excited for a fun day. She captured so many beautiful moments between our first look, moments with family, ceremony, and reception. She also gifted us a moment alone to talk and take in the day just the two of us - it was so special and intimate. I will always cherish the memories and details she captured for us. Rachael also did our engagement shoot a few months before the wedding and those photos are so incredibly breathtaking. Some people have such a talent and artistry in what they do and Rachael is one of those people. If you are looking for someone who will become your friend, make you feel beautiful, and most importantly capture these special moments in a way that brings back every emotion of life and love when you look back at the photos, we 10000% recommend Rachael.”

“My husband and I were beyond impressed with our entire experience with Debra Aslanidis Photography. From start to finish Debra made my experience as a bride so smooth and stress-free. Wedding planning can be a stressful process, but Debra provided excellent communication about what to expect leading up to the wedding and the day of, so we felt very at ease the entire time. When I ran into an unrelated issue (a problem with another vendor), Debra reached out and sent me recommendations and offered support while I dealt with the situation. It was unbelievably kind and not at all expected, but it really made me feel cared for and I appreciated Debra going above and beyond for me! On the day of our wedding, Debra and her partner Jeremy were absolutely phenomenal. For one, they worked so perfectly together. We had guests complimenting how well they worked and coordinated together! I seriously can’t thank them enough for not only being amazing photographers, but also helping with other tasks that they voluntarily did. I seriously felt like they assumed the role of our wedding coordinators at times, since we didn’t have one, by providing suggestions and opinions since they’re the experienced ones when it comes to weddings! I couldn’t be more thankful for their confidence and comfortability in doing so! Finally, I am seriously blown away by the fact that we got our photos about a month after our wedding day! Debra has worked weddings, engagement shoots, and other photoshoots every single weekend and has a family, yet still managed to bust her butt to finish our photos, and it was the best surprise to get our photos back right before celebrating one month of marriage. I am so in love with our photos and have looked at them every single day, multiple times a day, since getting them back. Photos are the one thing you keep from your wedding day (besides your memories!), and I am absolutely in love with the final photos! The editing is beautiful, and I’m so happy we prioritized finding a photographer who emphasizes the behind-the-scenes and candid moments. I love that our pictures are 100% in the moment and capture the real, raw emotions of everyone! There were several detailed shots of our venue and decor and I love those just as much as I love the ones of me, my husband, our families, and our friends! They’re all so stunning!! Our photos made me laugh, cry, audibly say “awww,” and smile the biggest, cheesy grin. I absolutely believe your photographer is one of the most important vendors you choose for your wedding day, and I would 1000% recommend Debra Aslanidis Photography to everyone I know!!”

“Bogdanov Photography was a fantastic choice for our wedding photography. Svyat, the lead photographer, was extremely professional, friendly, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. His communication style put us at ease and his attention to detail ensured we got all the shots we wanted.

“Brayley was an integral part of our wedding day! Her timeline was so helpful in planning how to get the shots I wanted. She was fun to work with and it just felt like we were hanging out with a friend rather than posing for pictures. The sneak peaks we have gotten back so far are amazing. The golden hour photos have taken my breath away. I would 100% recommend her to anyone who is looking for both timeless and fun photos. She is so easy to communicate with and I felt like I could ask any question.”
