We used sound photography for our elopement at mount rainier. Eugene was our photographer and did such a great job I am in love with my photos they are everything I wanted. Communication was so easy and because we were in the park Eugene made sure we had a specific meeting spot so he was easy to find. Sounds made everything so easy!

Kate Scott Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (8 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Orland Park, IL

My name is Kate Scott Daly, and I can't wait to meet you! I'm a Chicago native and have been a professional photographer for nearly a decade. I am obsessed with capturing the perfect moment that will make you gasp and say "Oh my god, this is amazing!" Being a queer woman, it is so important to me that you feel safe, loved, and beautiful every step of the way. If you're looking for someone you can relax with and just be yourself, you've found me! Let's face it: it can be awkward being in front of a camera. Even I feel nervous sometimes! I understand that anxiety and will do everything I can to make you feel fabulous!

We cannot recommend Kate enough! From the moment we met her, she made us feel completely comfortable and celebrated our love with so much enthusiasm. As a queer couple, it was important for us to work with someone who not only respected but truly celebrated queer weddings, and Kate went above and beyond. She took the time to help us clarify our vision for our wedding photos, which was especially helpful since we only had 6 weeks to plan our wedding and felt a little overwhelmed by the process. She was a great guide and we immediately knew we were in good hands! Kate’s associate Ryan shot the photos on our wedding day and they captured every special moment—from the big emotional vows to the smallest, most intimate glances—with such artistry and care. The photos are breathtaking, full of life, and truly reflect the joy of our day. Right when Ryan arrived, they jumped in with capturing photos of small details and worked to capture everything we wanted for our special day. Kate and Ryan were both an absolute delight to work with—professional, fun, and incredibly talented. If you're looking for a photographer who will make you feel seen, respected, and celebrated while delivering stunning photos, look no further. We are beyond grateful for Kate and Ryan and will cherish these photos forever! Thank you for making our wedding memories so magical!

Awarded Best of Zola
Eivan's photo and video services were very affordable and were a major reason why we went with them. I think the photos we received turned out very well and captured many of the amazing moments that we had at the wedding. The service we paid for only included one photographer and one videographer but they were both very attentive and made sure to be where the action was the entire day. Overall, the experience was positive and for a bride who was more focused on living through the experience of her wedding, Eivan's did a good job of handling the stuff you don't really want to think about.

We hired Maks and Gemma for our wedding 2 weeks ago and I couldn't have nicer things to say about them. Maks and Gemma came in and instantly clicked with our group from the beginning. They did an amazing job making our not so photogenic groom and groomsmen absolutely love taking photos on our day. They knew exactly what I had visioned for my wedding and they went absolutely above and beyond. If you are looking for photographers to get everyone energized and going Maks and Gemma are definitely your people! We will definitely be using them in the future for maternity, family, and whatever other photoshoots we can do with them. Sincerely a bride who read a million reviews on all my vendors and couldn't have been happier with all my choices.

Hi, I'm Ashley! A Chicago wedding photographer with a love for capturing fun-loving and adventurous couples. From the I do’s to the epic dance moves, it’s my passion to capture authentic and candid moments created and inspired by one-of-a-kind couples! My process is simple. Document your day and create a vision with you: together we’ll create a seamless day that doesn’t feel like a posed photo shoot. I am LGBTQ+ friendly and support inclusivity and diversity.

Ashley is incredible and we cannot recommend her enough! As an LGBQT couple we were looking for someone who not only make us feel comfortable but understood posing for a same sex couple. Starting from our initial kick-off call to our engagement shoot and through our wedding day Ashley was nothing short of amazing! She made us feel at ease and like someone we had known for a lifetime. She was knowledgeable and helpful when it came to picking out a location and poses for our shoots during our engagement session and wedding day. Ashley was prompt, patient, understanding and brought a much needed sense of calm on our wedding day itself. Let's face it, weddings always have a curveball and Ashley was able to go with the flow and help my husband and I feel immediately at ease while still capturing the day. Every photo delivery we would receive, was better than the last. We thought we couldn't be happier after seeing our engagement session and then we received the photos from our wedding day. Ashley captured not only our special moments of the day but the details (flowers, table settings, bar set up, guest book set up etc.) and we couldn't be happier. Quality service, quality photos, quality across the board. At the end of the day Ashley feels like family and that's more than we could have ever asked for!

Words can’t fully describe how amazing Emma is. She did our engagement photos and they blew us away, so we knew we needed her for our big day. The pictures are a work of art, but what really blew us away was her professionalism and willingness to help in every situation. She’s more than a photographer. She’s a wedding life saver. She helped out in more ways than I can count and was bubbly and friendly about it. So much so that I had friends coming up to me and saying “your photographer Emma is AWESOME!” She’s just that talented and wonderful.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are huge fans of Emma! Here are 5 reasons she should also be your wedding photographer: 1. Emma is incredibly nice and was so generous with wedding organizing wisdom. She helped us feel more confident about the thousands of small details in the entire process, from our first Zoom meeting with her to the engagement photo shoot to the final shots on our wedding day 2. She is incredibly thorough as a communicator. We never had any question about what she needed or what she was doing before, during, or after the ceremony. And she was even very communicative via email with our moms(!) 3. She is so organized but also so creative. She kept our wedding day smooth by planning out all the posed shots needed, and she got all photos back to us in an always impressive timeframe. But she was also always open for a surprising shot or a little experiment. It made her work feel even more personal 4. She was a rock star on our wedding day, if you couldn’t tell. And she was a super fun hang during our engagement photo session, which featured Emma, my wife, and I improvising playful shots during a sudden rain storm(!) 5. Most of all, when she’s taking photos of you, her excitement in that moment fires you up more and makes you feel so comfortable. She makes you feel like your pictures are the best wedding photos ever taken. (But ours were, obviously)

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.

PHOTOS YOU CAN FEEL! We believe in the magic of the unscripted—the belly laughs, the happy tears, and every quiet vibration in between. Our documentary-style approach allows your day to unfold naturally. If you’ve been searching for a blend of artistry and authenticity, you’ve found it.

I looked at a LOT of wedding photographers. There are a lot of people out there who do beautiful photos, but none really felt like a fit for us -- either the photo style was moodier/sexier than I thought we could pull off, or the price was too steep for the amount of hours we wanted to have the photographer available, or photos felt too “posed” and cookie-cutter. Then we found Randy. The first thing I noticed about Randy’s portfolio is that people were smiling and laughing. You’d be surprised how few photographers feature photos that look joyful! The second thing I noticed is that photos weren’t all the same; different couples had different looks and styles. I felt like I was learning something about the couple by their photos. When we contacted Randy, we discovered that his work was not only in budget, but that his pricing included a full day of wedding photos – no matter how many hours the day lasted! Our package included engagement photos, wedding photos, a small album, and we added a photobooth for the wedding day. Our engagement session and wedding ended up being two years apart (thanks, COVID) and Randy did an incredible job with both! The engagement shoot gave us a great sense of how Randy works and got us accustomed with posing. What I most appreciated was the fact that Randy caught the moments in between the poses – where my husband and I were laughing with one another or sharing a special moment. For the wedding photos, Randy joined me a little bit before 9 am and was with us until the reception ended at 11 pm! He had a second photographer there during most of that time, as well. I really wanted to capture the joy of finally being able to be together with family and getting to celebrate. After nearly three years of being engaged, I was determined to make the day as stress-free as possible and just enjoy myself. Randy picked up on our joyful, relaxed mood right off the bat and gave us the photos of our dreams! Our photos are bright and colorful (although he picks wonderful photos to do in B&W) and full of laughter, big smiles, and happy tears. Every part of the day is beautifully captured, but we are especially fond of the candid joy in our reception pictures. He got such wonderful shots of our guests that we sent everyone a photo in their thank you cards! If you want wedding photos that feel like you, your partner, and your loved ones, I cannot recommend Randy enough. He is professional, easy to work with, and so talented. We are so grateful to have found him!

Spoiler alert: I didn't grow up daydreaming about weddings. Instead, I grew up on shaky home videos and weathered family albums—so I know how important it is to keep memories alive. The problem? The internet is overflowing with photos that focus on trends over authenticity. That's why, in a world filled with filters + fads, I'm here to capture every real moment of your wedding day.

Chelsea was a dream to work with! From our first meeting, it was clear we were in good hands. She strikes the perfect balance of creative eye and meticulous planner, making sure we had a clear plan going into the day while staying flexible should things go awry. Case in point: when we met for our engagement shoot, it stormed, but we were able to tuck away in a cafe to chat and still capture beautiful photos once the rain passed! As two very camera-shy people, it was really important to find a photographer who made us feel comfortable, and Chelsea was exactly that. You spend as much (if not more) time with your photographer on wedding day as anyone else, and we could not have picked a more perfect person to invite into ours. On the actual day, she made everything feel effortless. Our motto for the day was “In Chelsea we trust,” and we couldn’t have put our faith in a better person. She made a big day feel relaxed and fun -- even when taking photos in the middle of downtown traffic! Throughout the day, she took the extra time to arrange things just so, and the love and care shine through in our photos. If you're thinking about hiring Chelsea: do it. We couldn't recommend her more!

Hello! My name is Brigette and I am based out of the Chicago land area, but make it my mission to travel for photography as much as possible! I love the color purple, crazy hats, funk music, & all things outdoors! Traveling is my number one passion! I LOVE connecting with couples and getting to tell their love story authentically. I like to connect my subjects with nature and use natural lighting to create breathtaking images that emphasize my love for the natural beauty we find outside every day!

Brigette Burgman Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! From start to finish, Brigette's communication was efficient, organized, and personal. Her dynamic, captivating photography was full of emotion and truly captured the essence of our special day. Brigette helped us stick to the timeline by getting all the pictures we wanted, and she was incredibly flexible when I got tired during our portrait session, quickly adjusting the structure to keep me comfortable. As a planner myself, I sometimes struggle to let go and be in the moment, but Brigette's calm, kind demeanor put me at ease. The final photos exceeded our expectations - they are exactly what we had hoped for and more. We are thrilled with Brigette's services and cannot recommend her highly enough!

Fuller Photo Co. is a queer, woman owned photography studio specializing in documentary style wedding photography since 2016. Offering film and digital! My number one goal is to create a relaxed and fun atmosphere, where you feel safe and supported while being photographed. I love focusing on color, fun and real candid moments in my work. Nontraditional wedding plans are my absolute favorite. The more true to you and more unique that your wedding plans are the better!

From the beginning to the end, Jordan was a pleasure to work with for our wedding. Their work speaks for itself but the work was also paired with just a great vibe and a desire to give us precisely what we were looking for. Our initial meeting was thorough and we left it feeling super supported. Day of was a breeze, we were able to just let Jordan do their thing. I've been in lots of wedding parties and Jordan was by far one of the best people wranglers I've ever encountered. Our after-ceremony photos were a breeze because they had it all under control, and after that all we had to worry about was being present with our friends because they were on top of it- dances, cake cutting, and our friends' chaos! We got our first peek quickly and the wait for the rest felt like nothing. Once we received our full photo set, we cried- because Jordan perfectly captured every aspect of our Wedding day perfectly. Book Jordan, you won't regret it!

Hey there! I’m a weddings and couples photographer based in Chicago, IL with my partner Emily and my rescue dog Daxter. I’m here to document joy and celebrate all the meaningful moments with the kickass people that find me.

I cannot say enough good things about Sam, truly. We hired him shortly after getting engaged and were fortunate enough to have engagement photos and our wedding with him. My husband and I are both creatives and have worked in media so photo was extremely important to us. If you want true to color and documentary style photos then look no further. Not only does he stylistically do a remarkable job but it felt like we were just hanging out with a bestie all day. Let this be your sign to hire Sam. It’ll be one of the best decisions you make for your wedding day.
