Jeremy Glickstein Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (10 reviews)
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,950
  • Serves Union, 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
Highly recommended! I am a Chicago videographer who had the privilege of working alongside Jeremy. Whether it's a corporate shoot, headshots or wedding photography Jeremy and his team have you covered! He and his team are 100% committed to making you feel comfortable and at ease. Jeremy delivers top notch quality in his photography and his work speaks for itself. Creative surprise is apparent in his work. He is so professional but also so down to earth. He is kind, honest, creative and his work is superb. I would highly recommend hiring Jeremy and his team for your photography needs.

Awarded Best of Zola
If only there were more than 5 stars to give Brittany and Rock 1 Photography... She is the most professional, efficient, light-hearted, positive, and FUN photographer I've ever had the pleasure of working with. We worked together on a wedding once (I am a floral designer), and I was so impressed by her that I hired her to take photos of my family. On a crummy-weather day, where toddler temper tantrums and bad attitudes were flying high, Brittany somehow managed to snap shots that made us look like the happiest, most attractive family ever!! To say I was blown away is an understatement. If you're looking for a photographer who you can TRULY count on, and is GUARANTEED to get you the most amazing pictures from your wedding day - look no further... Brittany is the absolute BEST!

  • Serves Union, IL

Your wedding story, captured through real, effortless connection. The most beautiful images happen when you feel comfortable enough to be yourself. From booking to your last dance, I make sure you feel at ease, supported, and excited. My style is soft, emotive, and rooted in candid magic—the quiet glances and unprompted laughter. I let genuine emotion lead the way rather than stiff, rehearsed poses. Weddings can be a whirlwind, but sessions with me feel relaxed and fun, like spending time with an old friend. Come as you are, bring your love, and I will preserve the big milestones and everyday magic you’ll want to remember forever.

I found Enerel Photography through a Facebook group and was immediately drawn to her portfolio. She was newer to wedding photography, but her rates were so reasonable that I decided to take a chance on her—and I'm so glad I did. From our first conversation, she was responsive and thoughtful about every detail of our day. On our wedding day, she showed up prepared and on time, and it was clear how much care she put into capturing our moments. Her photos turned out beautiful and elegant, with a soft, creative style that perfectly matched what we envisioned. She absolutely exceeded my expectations and delivered exactly what we hoped for.

We just had our wedding this past Friday, 8/21/20. Covid-19 created a lot of uncertainty on how things would turn out. But, there were 2 things that were certain. We were getting married and Justin was going to be there to capture it. Whether it was at the original venue, a boat, or in a tiny backyard. Justin's enthusiasm is so genuine and infectious.

Carey Primeau has been documenting weddings for 20 years and provides a supportive roll with honesty and flexibility. With a friendly, creative and artistic perspective, Carey will help bring out the best in you.

Carey was everything we could have hoped for in a wedding photographer and more. He was punctual, professional, and completely on top of the timeline from the moment he arrived, which immediately put us at ease. What really stood out was how comfortable he made us feel throughout the entire day. Neither of us are naturally confident in front of a camera, but Carey gave clear, calm direction without ever making things feel stiff or overly posed. He was warm, easy to be around, and blended in seamlessly- capturing real moments as they happened while still making sure we got all the “must-have” shots. And the photos speak for themselves. The shots are stunning- beautiful lighting, thoughtful angles, and so much emotion captured in a way that feels true to us. He caught candid moments we didn’t even realize were happening, along with gorgeous portraits that look effortless. If you’re looking for a photographer who is reliable, talented, and genuinely makes the experience enjoyable, Carey is it. We would highly recommend him to anyone and would absolutely hire him again. Five stars all the way.

I believe you can't stand behind your business unless you can say you fully understand it – and 24 years of marriage is proof that I KNOW LOVE. I set out to capture the essence of love when I started Parker Photography in 2018. I have been married to my best friend for the last 24 years, and people who meet us swear we are newlyweds. We still act like lovestruck teenagers with each other, that same feeling we get from every newly engaged couple that we meet. We know where our couples are coming from and what they hope to capture in their engagement sessions and on their wedding day, and we make it effortless for them to achieve their goals.

Not only do I have a great eye for the art, but whatever the task is at hand I am able to execute it… it’s my passion. Family and friends whom I have photographed in events say this is my “calling.” I love using natural light when possible and do not over process my pictures; natural is beautiful. I would love the opportunity to share your engagement and wedding day through my lenses. I bring a touch of photo journalism and an intimate approach to my clients that shines in my work. For weddings, I instinctively capture the event through the couple’s eyes. I shoot their story in a natural way.

Working with Esme Photography as a vendor partner has been consistently excellent—they exceed expectations on every level. Their communication is prompt and stress-free, making collaboration seamless whether we're coordinating timelines or discussing event details. During portrait sessions, Esme's team gently guides couples and wedding parties with such calm professionalism that everyone stays relaxed and present, which genuinely makes a difference in the final images. What truly sets them apart is their eye for detail; they capture both the sweeping atmosphere and the subtle moments that make a day meaningful, showcasing every element in its best light.

Warm, and emotive portraits showcasing authenticity is my first priority. I'm here not only to capture your precious moments but to be right by your side through such large life events. I'm based in Lake County, Illinois, and yes I love to travel! If you want me to photograph your story, it will require a travel fee, depending on where it takes place. But no worries, I always try to find the cheapest way to come.

Kailee Rei Photography was an exceptional choice for our wedding photographer. Kailee was prompt, kind, and calm in all of our communications leading up to the big day, putting us at ease through the planning process. On the wedding day itself, she impressed even my husband, who doesn't normally like having his photo taken. Kailee gave clear direction for portraits and efficiently wrangled our large groups for family photos, helping keep the day running smoothly. The quality of Kailee's work is simply amazing - we've received so many compliments on our wedding photos, which perfectly captured the joy and special moments of our celebration. We felt the exceptional images we received were well worth the value. I would highly recommend Kailee Rei Photography to any couple looking for a talented, professional wedding photographer.

Hi, Im Carol DeAnda, born and raised in the southwest suburbs and now living in Lake in the Hills Illinois, with my studio in downtown Algonquin. I have always been the one with the camera since grade school, but it wasn't until high school I realized that this could be my calling. After high school, I attended Harrington College of Design for the Digital photography program and started on my path to becoming a professional photographer. I am a PPA member and CPP (Certified Professional Photographer) and hold the Master Wedding Photographer degree from PPA, as well as a member of The Wedding Equality Alliance.

Carol and her team are ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL when it comes to photography! The work is second-to-none, the professionalism is always consistent, and everyone is always so friendly! :) I have been working alongside Carol at weddings for several years now. As a DJ, it can be tough to communicate with vendors and make sure everyone is always ready to go. This is definitely not the case with Carol. 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. Carol and her team edit and produce SOME OF THE BEST PHOTOGRAPHY WORK I HAVE EVER SEEN. Seriously. If you haven't checked out her portfolio, do it now. Carol has an eye for not only capturing your ideas, but also the tiny details that no one else would ever think about. Do yourself a favor a book with Carol and her team.

Dee’s photobooth is def a crowd pleaser! Everyone loves the party favor of a memory of the night! Dee is so engaging, asking so many questions beforehand so she shows up, sets up, and just goes! You don’t need to check in on her or anything. She brings props to match your event. Some of her stuff is so funny, it brings out the best in people. Her prices are fantastic, just let her know what your budget is.
