Nicole Endress Photography

  • Photographer

  • Starts at $4,800
  • Serves Vandalia, IL for additional fees

Hello! I’m Nicole, Your Wedding Photographer, storyteller, and friend. If you’ve found your way here, it’s likely because you’re a lot like me—someone who cherishes heartfelt moments, believes in love stories that are as unique as the people in them, and values the beauty of what happens in those unplanned, in-between moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
Nicole captured the wedding day from beginning to end in such effortless and timeless fashion; from the tiny details of our homemade Day-of-the-Dead sugar cookie decorations to the vast woody backdrop of where my husband and I said our vows, Nicole captured every design and element through her camera lense with artful finesse, giving my husband and I treasured photographic stills that will forever keep our special wedding day celebration alive. Even more impressive is how Nicole adapted to our needs in every way possible, such as running up the stairs to grab my husband’s boutonnière, organizing each family for pictures after the ceremony, climbing up on rocks for that perfect shot, and helping bustle the long train of my dress for the first dance. She brings calm to the chaos and reassurance to any unexpected uncertainty. Her crafted behind-the-scenes edits are also stunning and preserved the genuine characteristics, colors, and romance of our wedding day. I cannot recommend Nicole enough!

Hey!! Congratulations and I'm so excited you're here! My name's Lissa (pronounced "Lyss-uh") and photographs are my jam! Also my jam? Bright colors, the lamest jokes, floral everything, weird history, and awesome ghost stories. I'm a total mother hen / perpetual big sister and I'm mom to Max, Henry, and Penelope. I love creating. I garden. I sew. I crochet. I design ridiculously cute tee shirts. But most of all? I freaking love creating photographs. A professional photographer since 2011 (eek!), my photographs are bright, happy, and totally meant to hit you in the feels. But most of all? They're a total party!

Awarded Best of Zola
It was such a pleasure having Lissa as the photographer for our wedding. She has taken several photos for me and my family throughout the years, and each time the photos have always been exactly what we wanted. Her photos are vibrant, full of color, and full of feeling. Lissa was sure to respond quickly to contracts, questions, and provided information in a timely manner. She listened to our desires and concerns, and when needed she provided feedback that helped us feel more comfortable and excited to work with her. She is incredibly easy to work with her. She was flexible with any photo requests that came up in the moment, and she guided and directed us for other shots she felt would turn out well when we weren't sure what to do next. She was professional and courteous to all of our wedding guests and yet always made sure to prioritize our (the bride and groom) desires and time as opposed to the rest of our wedding party. She had a happy, yet focused disposition while working with us. That focus was evident in the BEAUTIFUL pictures she took. She perfectly captured our joy that day. Turnaround time was better than expected, and we couldn't be happier with the results. We have no regrets with our choice of wedding photographer. She's amazing!

My husband, Zach, and I got married on May 25, 2025 and working with Hannah was seriously one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. I feel like many vendors default to only addressing the bride, but Hannah made sure that we both felt included from our very first meeting, to all of the email exchanges, and to finally our wedding day! I was definitely a type A bride, but Hannah welcomed all of my planning energy and gave us access to a bunch of resources to help in the process including her wedding planning guide, a design template for a wedding binder, and access to her event diagraming software. On our wedding day, Hannah set-up everything to perfection, she keep things moving seamlessly, and she made tear-down a breeze. I don’t even know what fires she had to put out during the day and that’s EXACTLY THE POINT! When I think back on the day, I can’t even remember a single thing that “went wrong,” and that’s a huge testament to everything Hannah did behind the scenes so we could both relax and fully enjoy the day with all of our family and friends. If you’re looking for the perfect day-of-coordinator, Hannah’s THE it girl.

Oh... hello. You made it. That's nice. This won't take long, if you poke around a bit you'll probably find what you're looking for. There are some photos, some words... and hopefully they help you decide if I'm the right person to document your wedding. I like to photograph moments that happen naturally, without too much fuss. If you're into that-if you're ok with a little wind in your hair, or a cake that leans slightly to the left-then maybe we'd get along just fine.

From the moment we met Erika and Loy for our engagement shoot, we knew we had found something special. They made two self-proclaimed awkward people feel totally at ease in front of the camera. It didn’t feel like posing—it felt like laughing, dancing, and being fully ourselves, all while they worked their magic. The photos captured not just how we looked, but who we are. We walked away from that session with more than beautiful images—we walked away with memories. Fast forward to our wedding day, and they absolutely blew us away. Our friends and family keep raving about the photos: “absolutely stunning,” “so artsy,” “journalistic,” “soulful,” and “hilarious and beautiful at the same time.” The photos brought the emotion of the day flooding back—joy, intimacy, hilarity, and everything in between. Every little detail, every fleeting look, every big, beautiful moment—it’s all there. They somehow captured the energy of the day, not just the visuals. We’ve gone through the gallery more times than we can count, and each time we see something new to love. From my dad’s emotional first look to the spontaneous dance floor chaos to those quiet moments between us in Adirondack chairs—it’s all so genuine and full of heart. Working with Erika and Loy wasn’t just hiring photographers—it was inviting two incredibly talented, kind, and charismatic humans into some of the most important moments of our lives. We can’t imagine having had anyone else there with us. If you’re considering them—do it. Truly, 10 out of 10.

She took the time to explain everything and made sure we felt comfortable and confident in her abilities. The quality of their work is truly outstanding - creative, passionate, and professional. Erica was flexible and open-minded throughout the entire process, and her attention to detail was incredible. She did such an amazing job with our photos and gave us so many options to pick from when our big day was over. It was such a stress relief to have Erica there, as she felt like a part of our family. We are thrilled with the beautiful memories she captured and cannot recommend Captivated Impressions highly enough.

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.

I’ve worked along side of Tawny for many years now in the bridal industry. Asking Tawny to do my maternity photos was a no brainer. I love her style of photography. She really took my personal style into consideration and created such a custom photoshoot for us. I will forever cherish these photos of my once in a lifetime experience with twins! Thank you Tawny!
