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.

The emotion of a portrait. Will it have a place in your heart? I spend a lot of time, on a few great images. Until every image I capture, enhances each life that it captures. You might view it often, or you may view it rarely. But you will always feel it. This is my signature, and it means everything. – Michael Novo
