Jana Blue Photography (Photo + Film)

5.0

Wheaton, IL
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Skokie, IL

My name is Jana Blue and I've been photographing weddings for 10 years. I'm consistent not in a trend of photos or style, but emotions. Each wedding and couples are so unique and my work follows that. In my career I've photographed both big production weddings and also intimate DIY ones. I've photographed informal engagements and elopements/weddings in a desert in Chile, in the mountains of Zion, in a beach in Croatia, in an ancient church in Greece and in forests in Brazil. I work with all different budgets and needs from my brides. I'm a preferred vendor of Chicago First Lady Boat, so I do weddings on the boat during the summer.

From start to finish, Jana made our wedding day in Chicago feel so special and unique. My partner and I spent 3 hours with Jana, who so graciously accommodated our numerous photo locations across Chicago in such a beautiful way! We felt very taken care of by Jana and her team and cannot recommend her enough. Not only does she listen to her couples, she also provides confidence and mastery which makes you feel like getting your photos taken should be part of your everyday life. Thank you Jana - we will hold on to these photos dearly forever! Maria and De'Sean

Ally was awesome to work with. She was really nice, very professional, affordable, she communicated clearly and quickly, and she was great at making us look good. We are pretty terrible at taking photos ourselves, but she managed to make us look great. We are so happy with how these turned out. And she was so quiet and sneaky during the ceremony that I didn't see her once. Granted, I was getting married, but she got some great shots without getting in the way of the ceremony. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an event photographer.

Awarded Best of Zola
Wow! We have had just such a lovely time working with Emma. We booked her because we’d heard she was great with making couples feel at ease in front of the camera and that was absolutely true. Our engagement photo shoot was fun and easy, and even better the photos turned out amazing. She makes sure to get the pictures parents will want and then makes sure there’s time for photos that really show our character. Prior to our wedding, she was helping to keep us on track with any tasks and she helped answer any questions we had along the way. Day of, she kept us calm and having fun with the photos. Emma is this great balance of buttoned up and professional and easy going so you never feel stressed. We got our first look gallery back just two days after our wedding and WOW. She has such a great eye and knows just what to do to get great shots. We will absolutely work with her again and would recommend her to anyone in a heart beat.

A Chicago-based wedding and elopement photographer that values genuine connection, authentic emotions, and getting to know my clients on a deep and personal level. I value capturing your moments and memories exactly how they happen, helping you to remember the feelings of intimacy, love, and warmth of marrying your person.

If you’re looking for a photographer.. look no further. Jayde is your GIRL. She is the kindest, coolest, down to earth photographer there is. My husband doesn’t love the camera he was very uneasy at the beginning of our engagement session. By the end, she had him laughing smiling, being his goofy self. She made him feel so comfortable on our way home he was like well she was the best I can’t wait for our wedding! Then throughout the wedding process (ours was alittle over a year) if I had ANY questions or just needed to vent she was always there with a listening ear. She consistently reminded me that it was my day that she was there to help in any way she could. At the wedding day, she was hyping us up, being goofy as always did a phenomenal job. We had a huge bridal party an even bigger family.. which I know is never fun for any couple or photographer. But she GOT IT DONE. She is so efficient knows how to keep it going. I can’t thank Jayde enough for everything she did for me my husband. I can’t wait for her to take pictures of us the rest of our lives, because she’s stuck with us! PS if you’re looking for a photographer that gives you sneak peaks… she’s also your girl. We got over 100 pictures from our wedding by the time we landed at our honeymoon. Okay thank you for coming to my tedtalk about the amazing Jayde!

I'm an artist by nature. I love photography, but I also love to paint. Growing up I could color for hours. I come from one of those families where everyone is passionate. Things are really loud and your mom asks you when you've eaten last when you walk in the door. If you come from one of these families, you know exactly what I mean. When my son was born I picked up a camera and embarked on a challenge to learn as much as I could about digital photography. I love to be with people and I love to make people feel good about themselves. We should all have a hype girl and I'd love to be yours.

Sarah not only takes amazing photos, she has an easygoing personality that puts you at ease on your wedding day. Her organizational skills make the day run smoothly and keeps the stress away!

I am suburban lifestyle and portrait photographer, weather enthusiast; married to a wonderful husband and mother to two precious little boys. Yes, I now know what it feels like to have your own kids cooperate for photos. It sometimes takes a village. But I must say I have gotten mighty good at it. So don’t fret. It is possible! Since 2010, I’ve been behind the lens capturing whatever comes my way. This includes all of your smiling faces. My artistic style is full of color and fun. Not airy, not moody, just FUN!

Welcome! My name is Kathleen Virginia Williams, and I’d be so excited to capture your life. I lived in the city of Chicago for 7 years, but now I live in a northern suburb, Grayslake. I love my job as a Chicagoland freelance photographer, and you usually can find a camera in my hand even when I am not working. (I often have to be asked to stop taking pictures, just follow my personal Instagram @kathleenvirginiawilliams). Some other things that I love: cooking, bike rides, gardening, adventures, dancing (some call my dancing hopping), design, a great movie, and the Blackhawks.

I have always loved capturing memories. I learned that from my Uncle Mike. Since he passed away, I have picked up his hobby of capturing people's beauty and the emotions they share in a single moment. I hope I can share that love with you as well! ​ I grew up in the northern suburbs of Chicago, and now I call a cozy neighborhood in Chicago home. When I'm not taking photos, you can find me reading a good book, grabbing drinks with friends, snuggling with my cat, or riding my Peloton!

Hi! I'm Sarah. Congratulations on taking the next step in your wedding planning! Choosing to work with me earns you more than just a photographer; you get a hype-girl, a dress fluffer, a confidant and a new best friend. Since we are now future besties, here's what you should know about me: My love for portraiture stems from the joy it brings me to make others feel beautiful. Few things make me feel as giddy as photographing weddings, engagements & proposals, and I can't wait to capture the next stage of your love story. My strengths lie in natural lighting, illuminating colors, and catching the candid moments that make you, you.

We hired Aviva Media as both our engagement and wedding photographer and I cannot write enough good things about her!! In the planning process Sarah was consistent and communicative, asking questions I hadn't even thought to consider. We had multiple phone calls where it was clear she wanted to work with me to create the best version of the photos for my now-husband and I. During both the engagement photo shoot and wedding she was an absolute ray of sunshine, making everyone involved feel comfortable, but also ensuring we worked through our planned schedule so we got all of the shots we wanted. Sarah also went above and beyond throughout every part of the process: arriving early to do detail shots, calmly evolving the plan as some timeline hiccups came up during the wedding, and even doing one of my bridesmaid's hair! And, of course, the pictures are GORGEOUS!! I can't imagine ever hiring anyone else - thank you Aviva Media!

Our team of professionals firmly believes that every couple should have the opportunity to capture the memories of their special day without breaking the bank.

Bonie Wedding was great to work with. From the start process, the communication was easy. Hannah was our lead photographer with Emily and Lactoya were our videographers, who were both great teams. I highly recommend using Bonie weddings for both photo and video, as the two teams worked together without any trouble. During the reception, we barely noticed their presence, yet every time we looked up they were there recording everything. It was so nice to know that your special day was captured from start to finish, without feeling overwhelming. We appreciated Hannah and Emily's directions for all the photos. The production team was great as well. Very responsive and easy to communicate. They make the entire process clear and concise, which is appreciated when the wedding planning process and day off can feel overwhelming. Our wedding was not even 2 weeks ago and we already received our video trailer, as well as some sneak peek pictures from Hannah via Dropbox. Hannah also did our engagement shoot and it was fun and easy. We loved how our pictures came out and are so eager to see the rest. Thank you Bonie!

From your candid laughs together to the way your grandmother's eyes well with tears when she sees you walk down the aisle - no detail is too small. We’ve had so many sweet couples from around the world trust us - from our own backyard in MN to the Coasts & even Internationally. I've had the honor of being nominated as the Top 3 Photographers in MN & the experience of photographing over 150 weddings. But each feels completely unique & gives me the joy of butterflies

I have worked with Allie on multiple styled shoots, and she is now doing my wedding next year, so I have gotten the pleasure to see her behind the scenes, and now working with her as my wedding vendor. Each time I work with her, I see her work getting better and better. Her style is romantic and light, and she loves to capture the detail of every event so that you will never forget all the work that went into it.

Awarded Best of Zola
I don't even know where to begin with Zachera. She is a truly special human being, and it was an absolute honor to have her documenting our most intimate and special moments during our wedding day (and engagement shoot). If you go to her website, it'll tell you what you need to know about her and her work, but what it doesn't do is detail exactly how amazing she is and how amazing she'll make you feel. Before we officially booked Zachera, she set up a FaceTime meeting with us (we're in different states) and wanted to know our story so that she could ensure that we were the right fit for each other - an important step to making sure your day is going to be smooth and capture what you're envisioning! After we booked her she was nothing but exceedingly kind, helpful, and accommodating. I can't say enough how wonderful it was having her there on our wedding day. She really enhanced our entire experience, and I can't imagine our day without her help and guidance and kindness. I am a self-conscious person who worries often what I'm going to look like in pictures, and that's not something you want to think about on your wedding day. Zachera helped make me feel like the most beautiful bride, with genuine sincerity. Outside of Zachera being a great human, her work is absolutely stunning. It speaks for itself- you just need to look at her samples and you'll know. It makes you feel things. I don't know anything about photography but I do know that looking at her work conveys actual thoughts and feelings and not just images. Please consider sharing your day with someone like Zachera, and rest easy knowing that your memories will be lovingly preserved.

Hello, Lovelies! Sheena here! I’m a Chicago Wedding & Engagement photographer located in Lockport, IL. I start from your wedding day, and I’m there to help with your timeline, set up our friendship, and so excitedly I have been with families from the wedding to the birth of their children, and one day on to their senior photos. Let’s capture your life as it grows and blossoms! Let’s work together to make some of your most beautiful moments your most precious memories.

We booked Sheena for our wedding in October and couldn’t have made a better choice in photographers. From the very first time we spoke, Sheena was incredibly communicative and knowledgeable about all the details. Without Sheena, I’m not sure we could have organized our crazy group! She created the perfect day of timeline, adapted to a few hiccups in the day, and even got us into our reception quickly while still ensuring we got all the photos we wanted. Sheena’s passion shines through in her work while shooting but even more so in the final product. We could not be any happier with the our final wedding album and are so thankful to have our special day captured forever. We highly recommend booking Sheena for your special day. You won’t regret it!

This past year marked 10 years since I shot my first wedding. I’ve met so many wonderful couples which grew into lasting friendship, and photographed some amazing events. Capturing candid moments, posing beautiful portraits, bringing out personalities and making weddings fun and relaxed are hugely important to me! Beyond just capturing the day, I help every client with their timeline from the day we first chat, to pre-planning meetings, and the wedding day itself. My favorite clients are the ones that are down to earth and want to enjoy the organic moments of their wedding day.

Rebecca was, without a doubt, the best investment we made when planning our wedding. We knew the minute we hung up our initial call with her that she was going to be a perfect fit for us. Our engagement session was nothing short of perfection. She had great ideas, poses, and concepts without making us feel stressed, too staged or uncomfortable. She made us laugh constantly and the photos were stunning. The wedding day was an absolute dream! She was so unbelievably organized and brought such a calm presence to everyone involved. Rebecca took all of our wants and needs into consideration and made sure we were feeling good every step of the way. She laughed with us, joked with us and let us have emotional moments throughout the day. She was always one step ahead and solving any and all problems or issues that popped up. Our sneak peek photos were ready so fast and were AMAZING! She truly knows all the right angles, lightning and prompts to make for perfect wedding photos. We would rebook her over and over again and recommend her to any and every couple!

I put my heart and soul into making sure the couples I work with have the best possible experience and end up with images that we can both be proud of. My favorite part of taking photos is being able to find the special moments within your big milestones. It's those candid times, along with the significance of the occasion, that come together to create your favorite memories and it's my job to capture those through my visual storytelling.

Meg was an absolute pleasure to work with! From engagement pictures to our actual wedding day, Meg felt more like a good friend than just another vendor. She and her assistant, Vic, took the time to understand our priorities and ensure that each and every moment we wanted to capture was covered. In addition to this, they were also insanely creative creating images we didn’t even think about or consider. You’d be silly not to consider her.

We can’t recommend Kelsey enough!! She was amazing to work with leading up to our wedding and the day of. Kelsey was very responsive, super helpful in creating the timeline for the day, giving us ideas on best shoot locations for the wedding day, and helping everything run smoothly and on time the day of the wedding. Also, her pictures speak for themselves, they are incredible. They really told the story of our wedding day so genuinely and beautifully. She captured my husband and I (who are not the most natural subjects) so authentically and artistically. She also really helped the day move along timely, especially with all of our bridal party and family members. Our priest was also a tad difficult about where Kelsey could stand in the church to take pictures during the ceremony, and she still captured the ceremony in full and beautifully. We also had her create an album for us and our parents after the wedding and they all turned out stunning! Would highly recommend her for your wedding, she is the best!!

You'll often either find us at a coffee shop, the nearest burger joint or curled up in bed binge-watching New Girl while eating allllll the snacks. Oh, and we can't forget that we're dog parents to our favorite girl, Nala who is always trying to snuggle close.

Jenna was absolutely amazing to work with for our wedding. We booked an engagement session and 8hr coverage from her for our wedding day with a second shooter. She ended up being sick the day of the wedding and texted us already with a plan in motion for another shooter to come in her place. When they got there they knew absolutely every single detail I ever spoke about with Jenna. It couldn’t have been more like if Jenna was there herself. She even got us around 25 photos as a sneak peek the very next day! We have talked so much since the wedding that we have absolutely zero bad things to say about the photographers and how easy they made the entire day go. Absolutely loved Jenna and her whole team and have already discussed booking with her for any future photography we might need!!

He was so sweet and patient when it came to our families, he also speaks fluent Spanish and English which was perfect for our American/Peruvian wedding (my parents don't speak Spanish and my husband's parents don't speak English.) Not only was his personality off the charts, his photography skills were also outstanding. He caught the sweetest moments between my husband and I as well as with our families. He captured details of the wedding that I would probably forget if we didn't have pictures (table settings, my nails, decorations etc) and the quality was stunning.

Hi I'm Patty, your wedding photographer. I am based in West Michigan and spend over 50% of my season servicing Detroit & Chicago couples. Along with servicing the Michigan and Chicago market, I have slowly begun to expand my territory to include destination work with places like Texas, Virginia, Florida and Spain. I serve couples who understand that this season is one worth being celebrated and remembered. The couples who embrace their family and their people however that looks. Most importantly I serve those who see these photographs as an investment into their legacy.

Choosing Patty to be our photographer was the greatest decision we’ve ever made! From the moment we met her to receiving our wedding photos, Patty was INCREDIBLE. She made a wonderful effort to get to know us before our engagement shoot. Not only is Patty a phenomenal photographer, but she has also become such a sweet friend - going as far to lend me her Hulu password so we could be caught up on How I Met Your Father together. I felt like she understood our style and matched our energy wonderfully. During our engagement shoot in Saugatuck, Michigan, I was insistent we went to the beach to take some photos. Little did we know it would be a nearly mile hike in the heat of summer to get there. Despite sweating our butts off, Patty had a smile on her face the entire time and was incredibly professional. The photos were breathtaking and exceeded our expectations. During our wedding day Patty was there for every special moment, big and small. We didn’t worry once about the photos because we knew we were in wonderful hands. We had about 225 guests and both have big families, Patty was able to manage all of us during our family portraits! Patty is such a genuine person with a remarkable eye and talent. We can’t recommend Patty enough to be your wedding photographer!

I'm going to break this down as simply as possible...... Melissa is a dream come true. She is everything you could ask for in a photographer and SO MUCH MORE. She's professional, kind,an excellent communicator, and has the best creative eye. But that's not all that makes Melissa great; she has the ability to make you feel comfortable. My husband is a shy, introverted kind of dude - the kind who'd rather do household chores than pose in front of a camera and smile - and Melissa has this nature about her that made him feel relaxed and at ease to catch our best moments. All of that is just touching a little bit on the SKILL Melissa has. Besides her exceptional talent, she is a joy to be around, Melissa brightens a room! You can't help but feel like your best self around her... it makes for some really wonderful digital lifetime memories. Can't say enough about what a treasure Melissa is. 10 out of 5 stars, easy.

I'm able to find her in a moment's notice and she's ready to capture those precious moments in an instant! Not to mention, her genuine love for her clients. Each and every couple that she works for she gives her all - and that not only shows on the day of an event, but also in her work.
