About Jana Blue Photography (Photo + Film)

Jana Blue Photography (Photo + Film)

photographer

My name is Jana Blue and I've been photographing weddings for 12 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.

I am here now to capture your unique moments. I see beauty everywhere and I notice details which make each moment special and I do my best to capture that. My style is intimate and minimalist – stripping away all the superfluous things that just clutter the shot and focusing only on those subtle and mysterious elements that invoke feelings of magic and awe. Although I shoot in different lighting conditions, my preference is for natural light which brings out the true glow of eyes and smiles.

Highly Recommend!
We were nervous about having photos taken since we don't usually enjoy being in front of the camera, but Jana Blue Photography completely changed that for us. Janna made us feel so at ease and beautiful throughout the day—it was like having family take our pictures instead of a professional. Her communication before the wedding was detailed and kind, which helped us know exactly what to expect. She had great timing and captured all the moments that mattered without being intrusive. The photos turned out amazing, and we're so grateful for how involved she was in making our day special. We would not hesitate to use her again for any future photo needs!

An All-Inclusive Photographer!
From the moment we reached out to Jana Blue Photography, communication felt straightforward and stress-free. She listened closely to what we wanted for our day and understood our style we wanted for our photos. What really impressed us was getting both photography and videography included in one package, which made the whole process simpler and more affordable. We'd recommend Jana Blue to any couple looking for a photographer who genuinely cares about getting it right.

Beautiful Wedding Photos
Jana did an amazing job leading up to the day, day of, and days after. She delivered way more photos than I expected and they were beautiful. She was great at communicating and felt more like a friend offering support than a vendor. Would highly recommend!

She’s jsut the best photographer you’ll ever meet
She’s simply the best photographer you’ll ever meet, blending creativity with flawless technique. She dives into your story, captures your essence, and brings it to life in every shot. Everything feels natural, and the results are nothing short of breathtaking. Honestly, I could write a book about it, but this is something you have to experience for yourself. One thing’s certain: she will absolutely blow your mind.

Jana is THE BEST!!!
From the moment we met Jana, we knew we had found our wedding photographer. Jana immediately made us feel comfortable and confident that she had our most important day well under control. She had us laughing and relaxed in our first meeting as she beamed through the zoom screen, exuding a true interest in our love story; and she was soo attentive to details - she brought up many important specifics that we wouldn't have thought of on our own. Our first opportunity to work with Jana was our engagement photos, that's when we, again, truly knew we made the right choice. Jana is very easy to work with, even though she's really specific in how she wants you to pose -- and the results were fantastic. When we got the engagement photos back, we saw how unique Jana's photography is. We looked great(!), but also...all the colors around us popped, she caught natural light in a really beautiful way, and the "stories" she told through our poses were all so special compared to the other photographers we looked into. Our wedding day threw every challenge possible at Jana... inclement weather, pushy-other-brides-photographers doing their shoots in the same space, and even a traffic-blocking protest when we were traveling to the venue... and Jana remained resilient, calm, and on-task. We booked a 2nd photographer, Gail, through Jana, who was also fantastic, our only regret from our special day was not booking Gail for longer, as both of them were able to capture every special moment of the ceremony/reception/formals. To ensure you get the whole days' events and both get-ready rooms, we highly recommend future couples to book both for the majority of the day. Thank you Jana and Gail, for making our special day memorable, perfect, and genuinely beautiful....and we have the photos to prove it!
