Sheena is the perfect photographer for your big day. She helped us manage the chaos of our timeline while still keeping us at ease and relaxed for our photos. We had so much fun with her throughout the day. Our finished photos were beyond our expectations - we get so many compliments on them! I look at our gallery at least once a day.

Michelle Zapanta Photography 

5.0

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,800
  • Serves Wilmington, IL

What started out as a hobby, evolved into a great passion. With a camera on hand for every event, I spent my lunch money as a young kid developing films at the photo store. I became so fond of capturing as many organic moments as I can in photographs and fell in love with the idea of telling people's stories in images rather than words. I started venturing into professional photography right after my own wedding to my high school sweetheart, Erick, which was back in 2014. I LOVE everything wedding-related. My favorite to photographs are the wedding details, the bride and groom portraits and anything that will make me either cry or laugh!

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Michelle was the best choice my wife and I made during our wedding preparations. Her photos are stunning. True professionalism, skill, and a keen eye for capturing those happy moments. But best of all, she has a warm personality which made working with her feel easy. She was able to photograph our Indian wedding with such class, that these memories will remain with us forever.

Hello there! My name is Alana. I am a wedding photographer based in the Chicagoland area who ranges from lovely backyard weddings in the suburbs, to swanky celebrations in the city, to flying off to stunning elopements around the world. Weddings with me include tons of laughter, lots of support in planning and organizing, and photos so vivid that your memories jump out of the frame.

Awarded Best of Zola
Alana was a joy to work with and is such a sweet person. My now-husband and I didn't even finish our consultation call with her and we knew we'd found our photographer. Alana was communicative, prompt, and kind. Any time I had a question, she always answered with great info and a smile. We loved that her pricing was clearly outlined for all the packages and we could pay in installments. Our wedding package included an engagement session, digital galleries with LOTS of photos, and both color and black-and-white versions of each photo. Most importantly: just take a look at her gallery of photos and you can see how she truly is an amazing photographer! I fell in love with her style and art the moment I saw her vendor page. She has an incredible eye for capturing moments, light, and color. Post-wedding, my husband and I have received numerous compliments on our photos and how stunning they are. We cannot recommend Alana Jordan Photography enough. 3

Two Birds Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Wilmington, IL

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.

Jake is hands a down the best photographer out there. He was absolutely amazing to work with, professional, speedy, and efficient. We had a few inspiration photos but most let him run free with poses and style and we are SO glad we did. It’s honestly hard to pick our favorite pictures out of the gallery because they are all absolutely stunning.

Hey there! If we’re going to be friends, you should know that I'm goofy, adventurous, a shameless cat mom, and I don’t like chocolate (weird right?!). I graduated from Bradley University in 2018 and launched Moira Nolan Photography, specializing in wedding and engagement photography in 2019.

Especially since it is a goal of mine to visit all 50 states.

Awarded Best of Zola
I can't even begin to describe how absolutely amazing and wonderful our experience was with Moira! When we first contacted Moira she called us to go over our questions, and her services, it was so nice to be able to have a conversation about what we wanted and what she would provide! In the time leading up to our engagement shoot, I had changed my mind on location multiple times and Moira was extremely understanding and helped my vision come to life! We took our engagement pictures at the public library where I met my (now) husband and even took some pictures in the rain at our favorite park! Moira worked thru the downpour and got some AMAZING shots! Leading up to our wedding we met with Moira to go over timeline and she helped to make sure we would have enough time allocated for everything we wanted. On our wedding day Moira was punctual and extremely amazing to work with! We had to move some things around timeline wise and it all worked out beautifully. Our pictures are absolutely INCREDIBLE. I'm obsessed with them and she captured our day perfectly. I hope this review helps with your decision to pick your photographer, and I would HIGHLY recommend working with Moira, she is the best of the best!

From the moment we connected with this amazing duo, we knew it was meant to be. Nicole and Michael showed us the perfect amount of professionalism mixed with the ability to be our friends (even though we did not know each other at all), which made all the difference. We felt extremely comfortable with them during all of the steps leading up to the wedding, which in turn, made our actual wedding day that much more enjoyable. They knew we had a "vision" for our big day that we did not want to compromise, and they lived up to it in ways we could not imagine. It's almost been a year since we said "til death do us part" and we are STILL getting compliments on all of the pictures and the video! I can say that we will be forever grateful to have such an amazing day captured by the best there is.

Hi, I’m Amyth - guy behind the lens, and I’ve loved photography ever since I was a kid using my dad’s SLR camera. Whether it was with an old digicam, my trusty Canon 550D, or now with the amazing Canon R5, every photo I took made me love photography even more. I don’t stick to just one type of photography. I love capturing all moments, whether it’s a wedding, a proposal, a newborn’s first days, family get-togethers, portraits, fashion shoots, everyday life, or even your pets. Your moments deserve to be captured with care and creativity. Let’s make some beautiful memories together. 📸

On the wedding day, Amit was calm, organized, and incredibly attentive. He captured every detail—from the emotional moments during the church ceremony to the vibrant joy of our celebrations with family and friends. We especially loved how he highlighted the cultural elements while keeping everything natural and authentic. The photos themselves are stunning. The portraits feel timeless, the candid shots bring us right back to the moment, and the editing style is elegant yet modern. Looking through our gallery, we felt like we were reliving the entire day all over again. AMIT is the best in the field

Hey love, I’m Kara - your Nikon-loving, sunset-obsessed photographer and wedding cheerleader! When my sister got engaged in 2010 and I invested in my first camera, I started to experience the joy of documenting love stories as I photographed her engagement session - my very first session. From there, things grew quickly and now my husband and I photograph 20+ weddings a year together! When I’m not photographing weddings throughout Chicagoland, you can find me snuggling our puppies Georgie + Jett, lovin’ on my family, spoiling the littles in our life as Auntie Kara, gardening in our backyard, and exploring breweries with my husband Kyle.

Kara is one of our favorite photographers to work with, and we have nothing but great things to say about her work!

It all started with a hand-me-down camera and my obsession with weddings. I discovered my passion for photography as a teenager, and I’ve been hooked ever since! After earning my degree in Paralegal Studies, I decided it was time to pursue my dream. There’s something about photographing weddings that brings me true happiness. I love capturing the genuine connection between couples on their big day. When I’m not behind the camera, I’m spending time with my family! I have a beautiful little boy and one precious, fluffy dog. I also love reading books and taking weekend road trips with my friends and family.

Absolutely — here’s another version with the same voice and message, just reworded enough to feel fresh on a different site: You honestly can’t go wrong booking this company. I was pretty laid-back as a bride — except when it came to photography. After working as a bridal gown model, I knew exactly what I wanted and I was nervous about how the photos would turn out. George Street completely delivered. Their planning tools made the day feel organized before it even started. Both photographers arrived early, stayed on top of the timeline, and somehow managed to capture every important moment without being noticeable at all. I had a handful of creative, slightly “edgy” shots I was hoping for, and they brought them to life perfectly. One of my favorite parts is how easy it is to view everything afterward. We have access to every single photo, and being able to share the link with our friends and family has been such a fun way to relive the day together. I’m so happy with how everything turned out and would definitely recommend them to future brides

Original Weddings Photo & Video is a team of EMMY award winning storytellers. Our photography and videography packages are tailored to you, customizable and perfect for every wedding. We offer engagement photography, wedding photos, highlight films, wedding coverage and more.

Awarded Best of Zola
We initially went with Sound Originals out of cost consideration and ease of booking because their combined photo/video package seemed so much more cost effective than many of the quotes we were getting from individual photographers and videographers. We assumed therefore that the quality might be a bit diminished by comparison, but were quite pleasantly surprised to discover that this was not the case! We are beyond pleased with the coverage they provided of our wedding and reception, and would certainly recommend Sound Originals to anyone seeking photo/video of their big day. Our team on the day of the wedding were absolute rock stars. Kate, Trung, and Travis all were incredibly friendly and helpful, and went above and beyond in ensuring we had excellent photos and video--both candids and plandids. We're so grateful to each of them for their excellent work! If you're considering booking Sound Originals, there is one practical consideration we might offer, however: Their business model seems streamlined to provide a standardized product and level of quality to many clients at once by contracting with local photographers and videographers--this is great for ensuring that clients know what to expect visually and that the company has backup photographers ready in case any members of the assigned team can't make it, but this also seems to come at the cost of personal touch when communicating with the company and the photo/video team. Our communications with them were always through a portal on their website and often felt rather impersonal. This was a trade off we were perfectly fine with, given the very affordable price we paid for our package and the piece of mind in knowing that even if our lead photographer got sick or something, someone else would be there to fill in. If you, however, require a high level of customization or personal touch and want to cultivate a close relationship with your photographer, then you may want to hire a photographer/team directly.

With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

We had such a great experience with OLAS! Our photographer, Jasmine, was a very calming and helpful presence during the day. She was professional and patient and worked collaboratively with us and our families to adjust to our shot needs and any other minor chances. She also gave clear directions on how to pose! The photos came out really wonderful - we love the warmer tones and Jasmine captured the joy, fun, and touching moments really well. The OLAS team was very professional from beginning to end and we appreciated the level of detail through the planning process.
