About Margarita Chudinova Photography

Margarita Chudinova Photography

Chicago Wedding Photographer

I’m a wedding photographer based in Chicago, with a big love for capturing authentic emotions, timeless moments, and all the little details that make your day unique. Whether it’s a quiet look, a burst of laughter, or a beautiful sunset kiss, I believe those are the moments you’ll want to remember forever.

What sets me apart is the way I blend natural candid moments with gentle direction, so your photos look effortless but still polished. My approach is warm, relaxed, and storytelling-driven—I want you to feel comfortable in front of the camera so your real connection shines through.
