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

We couldn't be more grateful for Zach and his work! I had a million things running through my mind on our wedding day, and making sure we captured every moment was a priority. Zach assured us to not even think about photos, that was his job! His energy was calming and grounding! We got to live in our day and see it beautifully captured after. He was communicative, kind, and delivered exactly what we wanted. I highly recommend him and hope to hire him again for more of life's moments.

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!

The best part about what we do are the stories we get to tell. The happily-ever-afters, the love-at-first-sights…it’s the truth in a moment and a look that says it all. As Chicago area wedding photographers for over twenty years now, we’ve seen and captured just about every incarnation of true love imaginable. That’s why we approach your special day as a unique journey we take together. We walk you through every step, from proposal and engagement photos and perfectly capturing those forever wedding day moments with photography, videography, and content creation, to expertly crafting your very first family heirloom…your wedding album!

Awarded Best of Zola
TWA Photographic Artists were straightforward and direct in their communication, and kept us on schedule throughout our wedding day. Their work was great, capturing many timeless and detailed shots. However, at times they seemed a bit hurried when working with our wedding party and guests, though they remained attentive and eager to get the right shots. For example, the photographer remembered the little details that made our photos special, but we felt a bit rushed after the ceremony and didn't fully capture the joy of those moments. Overall, TWA provided solid photography services, but could have been a bit more patient and attuned to our desired pace for the day.

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!

Hi, I'm Samuel! Chicago based wedding and elopement photographer here to give couples a truly relaxed and down to earth experience. Being photographed shouldn't be uncomfortable or boring!  Telling love stories through photos brings me immense joy. 

We were so grateful to Samuel who was able to document our city hall ceremony on a very last minute request during the end of year holidays. (Are you free next weekend?) We were drawn to the documentary style of his work and thought it was a fitting way to remember a special moment in a basement of Chicago's City Hall. Leading up to the day, we texted and chatted about places to do portraits after and Samuel was very patient and helpful in suggesting places that felt right for me and my partner. Not only did he have the inside scoop on what the city hall ceremony was going to be like and what was going to happen, but he was also great to hang out with in line and and get to know better. We both felt very comfortable working with Samuel and the nerves of working with a professional photographer for the first time went out the window. I can only imagine how amazing the experience would be to work with Samuel with more time to prepare or at locations a little less drab than a city hall basement!

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.

No matter how many questions I had or if I just wanted to update her about something she was always there, literally a friend from a far. Leading up to wedding day Nicole checked in with me and made sure she was current and up to date with all things wedding, she assisted me with the timeline and overall flow of the wedding day and even added in some suggestions. Nicole showed up on wedding day and it was so nice finally meeting her in person after almost a year of Facetime, calls, and texts. I have never met someone more professional. I would recommend Nicole over and over to anyone because she provides such quality in her photos and it was an absolute joy working with her.

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
Having Kaitlyn as our photographer for our wedding was nothing short of a dream. From the moment we had our first call with her, I knew we were going to be so happy in choosing her. Firstly, her personality is so kind, caring, and matched so well with the vibe we wanted for our day - fun, full of joy, and easygoing. During the calls leading up to the day, she carefully gathered special details about us, what we wanted, and used those to capture the best moments from our wedding day. She was a joy to work with from start to finish. Now, the photos - we were amazed with the photo gallery Kaitlyn delivered (not to mention we got our preview the next day, and our full gallery a short time after; we really appreciated that!) the quality of the photos, and the candid moments she captured were so special to us. There are so many moments she captured where I did not even realize she was there, behind the scenes, getting the best moments of our love, and that is a true testament to her talent. Kaitlyn is so extremely talented, and we could not recommend her enough to anyone looking for a photographer for their event. She is exceptional at what she does, and she is a special person on top of that. And a special shoutout to her husband, Jake, who was her second photographer for our wedding. They worked seamlessly to deliver our dream wedding photos, and we are so happy. We get to relive our wedding day over and over with these pictures, and that is priceless.

When looking for a wedding photographer, we were looking for several qualities… We wanted someone that has an upbeat and outgoing personality to help us and our wedding party get re-energized throughout a long day, listens and follows through with our preferences, creates high quality photos, guides us on what to do for poses, and gets creative with the different styles of photos - Audrey was exactly all of these, and so much more. We purchased the package that included engagement photos and she provided us with an extensive amount of both engagement and wedding photos.

I've been doing photography since high school years. After seven years working as photo journalist, I worked for 5 years on cruise line industry in the photography department. It was 2000 when I became a wedding photographer and opened our own photography studio.

From start to finish, H Photography made our wedding day feel effortless. They stayed in constant touch before the big day and listened to exactly what we wanted, then delivered on every single request. During the ceremony and reception, they came up with creative shots we hadn't even thought of, capturing moments that made our day feel truly special. The final photos are stunning and we can't stop looking at them. Best of all, their pricing was fair for the quality we received. We'd recommend H Photography to any couple looking for a photographer who is responsive, skilled, and genuinely invested in telling your love story.

I am a Chicago-based wedding + elopement photographer. I am available worldwide and love to travel! I document genuine moments for couples, no matter who they love. My images are the perfect mix of posed and photojournalistic, giving you gorgeous portraits without missing the important, candid moments you will want to remember for years to come. My approach to wedding days is simple: I want to make sure you have images of you two that you love and cherish and tell your wedding day story.

Tawny was an absolute joy to work with and an incredible photographer. From start to finish, she was timely, professional, and incredibly thoughtful. On our wedding day, she gently helped keep us on track with our timeline while also offering flexible, creative alternatives whenever scheduling needed to shift. Something we appreciated more than we can say. She truly listened to our personal requests and made sure every photo we mentioned was captured, which made the experience feel very intentional and personal. Tawny’s photography style is exactly what you see in her portfolio: timeless, beautiful, and full of emotion. The photos we received are lifelong keepsakes we will treasure forever. As a queer couple, it was incredibly important to us to work with someone who was LGBTQ friendly, affirming, and made us feel completely comfortable being ourselves. Tawny created a welcoming, inclusive environment from the very beginning, and being local to Chicago was an added bonus that made coordination seamless. We were married in October 2025, and choosing Tawny was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. I genuinely hope to work with her again in the future for other photography needs and would recommend her wholeheartedly to any couple.

So there’s no “I” in team right?! While Captured Couture is the product of years of hard work that I built from the ground up. I have an amazing team because sometimes takes more than just me. For larger events or on occasions when I am already booked one of my team members will gladly assist with your event. We’ve covered hundreds of weddings together, and have refined our editing style and way of shooting to be completely consistent. You won’t be able to tell the difference. Pinky promise! No matter where you’re planning from when it clicks, it clicks.

Jennifer and her team are seriously a dream come true. I could not have imagined better photos that captured our wedding day and all the feelings we had. The wedding went by so fast I almost didn’t remember everything. But then came my stunning photos from Jennifer. She brought me back to that day and I felt like I was reliving the day again. Jennifer and her team are so talented and make you feel comfortable and helped guide us in poses, etc. Will gladly recommend her to anyone in the future wanting exquisite photos and an incredible photographer.
