Joel and his team have an incredible eye for capturing precious, genuine, and timeless moments.

  • Starts at $2,200
  • Serves Somonauk, IL

My love for photography began in Rockford, IL, where I discovered storytelling through a lens. Over the years, I’ve captured Midwest landscapes, national parks, and life’s meaningful moments. What started with local events and concerts grew into a passion for weddings and portraiture. I believe the best photos come from genuine connections, so I prioritize building relationships to understand your story and vision. Whether celebrating love, connection, or a fleeting moment, I’m here to calm nerves, share laughter, and capture memories you’ll cherish forever. Let’s create something timeless and yours.

“Working with Tyler Yomantas Photography was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. His communication style was easy, efficient, and comfortable, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of his work was truly exceptional - creative, informed, and worth every penny. Tyler is our go-to for everything photography related, as his portfolio speaks for itself. He has an eye for the smallest detail and made every step of the way a comfortable one. With his extensive background and experience, Tyler truly captured all the special moments of our wedding day with care and expertise.”

“Edgar is the best! He was fun to be around and up for anything. He traveled hours to meet us and even went on a pretty buggy/muddy hike to capture the most incredible photos. We are both so awkward in front of a camera and he immediately made us comfortable - such an important skillset! We can't wait to see him again next June for our wedding, and have so much faith that he will hit it out of the park again!”

  • Serves Somonauk, IL

A decade in professional theater. Nine years as a fine art street photographer. Now I shoot weddings. The theater taught me comfort—how to help nervous couples relax and forget the camera. The street work trained my eye—finding extraordinary frames in ordinary moments, chasing light like it owes me money. The result: signature portraits that feel like paintings and a shoot that feels like hanging out with a friend. 300+ weddings. 151+ five-star reviews. A 10-photographer team. Zero cookie-cutter work. Camera-shy? Creative? Both? Let's talk.

Awarded Best of Zola
“We are absolutely thrilled with our experience working with Jeremy! He is so considerate, professional, and easy to talk to. He is incredibly creative and motivated to make our dreams come to life. He was even willing to hike in a forest with us on a hot, buggy evening to capture the most beautiful photos we've ever seen that will forever remind us of our special day. 10/10, no complaints - he is simply the best!”

I am a professional photographer and artist based in Lockport, IL. I own Two Birds Photography and I've been photographing weddings and families for about 20 years. I'm a sensitive nature guy who loves to talk to trees, pick up rocks, and put my hands in running water. I'm good natured, goofy in my own way, introspective, and intuitive. Along with my partner, our house is full of love with four boys, three cats, and dog. I like to create art, make things with my hands, work with plants in a garden, go on hikes, explore the world, talk one-on-one with people, and I like to laugh.

“Since day 1, Jake was incredibly easy to work with. He was communicative, professional, kind, and made the entire process feel effortless. We chose a package that included a 1-hour engagement session and brought our pups, Lily & Layla. He was amazing with them and did such a great job incorporating them into our photos. On our wedding day, everything went perfectly. Jake even arrived slightly early to the hotel and immediately sprung into action. From meeting us at our main photo location to guiding us through poses, he made us feel comfortable and confident the entire day. He captured our ceremony and reception beautifully, and even took us out for sunset photos — which I am SO glad he did. We just received our preview gallery and are absolutely blown away by how beautiful the photos are so far. We are beyond excited to see the rest. We truly could not recommend Jake more!”

I’m a wedding photographer who believes your story deserves to be told with honesty, intention, and a little bit of magic. I’m drawn to couples who feel deeply, love boldly, and sometimes worry about how they’ll translate on camera — that’s where my gift lies. Clients often share that I bring a calming, grounding presence that lets them breathe, open up, and feel beautifully themselves. I chase tender glances, soft chaos, joyful bursts, and all the quiet magic in between. If you want warm, romantic, lived-in imagery, I’d be honored to tell your story.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Natalie was fantastic from beginning to end! We had already signed a contract with another photographer as well as placed a deposit. We saw Natalie at our best friends' wedding and loved how she blended into the crowd while still making sure she got every shot. Once we saw the final portfolio from our friends, we knew we had to make the switch. It was the best decision we made. Finding vendors can be extremely overwhelming, especially being a same sex couple. Natalie made the entire experience so much better. We thoroughly enjoyed her company just as much as her photography expertise. We will be using her for any family photos we need taken in the future. 10/10 recommend!”

I am a fine art wedding photographer who makes your photos more FUN. I'm for the couples who want to show the JOY while still getting those beautiful, editorial images.

“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.”
