  • Serves Chicago Ridge, IL

I have been a wedding photographer for over 10 years now, but I'm still excited about every wedding I shoot. Every day is different, and I love the excitement and the genuine relationships that I get to capture between the couple, their parents, their siblings, and their best friends. My goal is to help each couple have the best possible day, while capturing their memories in the most flattering and memorable way.

Awarded Best of Zola
My fiancé and I were absolutely thrilled with the experience we had with Mary Rose! From the very first consultation to the final delivery of our photos, they exceeded all of our expectations and more. The attention to detail, creativity, and professionalism she brought to our engagement shoot were beyond compare. She made us feel comfortable, relaxed, and completely at ease, allowing us to enjoy every moment while capturing the most incredible, candid, and beautiful shots. What we loved the most was her ability to capture not just the big moments but also the little, intimate ones that truly tell the story of us. The photos are so vibrant and full of emotion, and we’ll cherish them for a lifetime. If you’re looking for someone who will not only give you stunning photos but also be an amazing, supportive presence on your special day, Mary Rose is your person. We couldn’t be happier with the results and are beyond grateful for her incredible work! Thank you again for capturing us so perfectly. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer and look forward to continuing working with you!

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Chicago Ridge, IL

I am a bilingual (Polish, English) Chicago & NWI based wedding photographer who enjoys traveling and music. I like to take a documentary approach to photography. Keeping posing to a minimum and capturing natural moments of your big day. I am a perfect photographer for a couple that believes the natural moments mean more than posed photographs.

Awarded Best of Zola
Roman Lorek Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, they were great communicators - open, honest, and responsive to all of our questions and requests. Their work is truly high quality, with an artistic and beautiful style that captured all the special moments of our day. They went above and beyond, making thoughtful suggestions and recommendations that helped make our wedding day even more perfect. Roman and Anastasia were friendly, professional, and made the entire photography experience easy and stress-free. They also did a "family" engagement shoot ahead of our wedding, which was the most fun I had ever had taking photos. Could not have been a better experience all-around! We would highly recommend Roman Lorek Photography to any couple looking for a talented and dedicated wedding photography team.

Zach Caddy Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Chicago Ridge, IL

A cinematic eye. --- A bleeding heart. --- An inclusive spirit. --- I've picked up a camera just about every day since I fell in love with photography in 2013. Though every shoot holds something unique, it takes a lot to catch me off guard after a decade in business. I pride myself on my ability to quickly connect with my clients, making them feel comfortable, cared for, and confident that they look great. Being a helpful and calming presence in the midst of your wedding is second nature to me. Basically, I try to treat people how I want to be treated: with fairness and understanding!

Awarded Best of Zola
Zach was absolutely amazing to work with! We were quick to book with him after clicking so well at our first meeting. We booked an engagement session separate from the wedding booking and were so glad we did! He provided great direction and conversation, helping two socially awkward folks feel comfortable and look like superstars. He was on time and professional for our wedding day, taking care to make sure we covered our photo list and suggesting a few shots that wound up as some of our favorites. He returned our images exactly on schedule and WOW! We were blown away! The photos exactly capture my memory of the wedding day. We would hire Zach again in a heartbeat!

I have thoroughly enjoyed working with this photo and video team! I began working with the wedding coordinator, Nora, who was very informative and helpful throughout the process! My only concern was the fact that I was not able to know who my photo and video team was before a couple weeks before my wedding! As a wedding planner, I like to plan things ahead of time and make sure everybody is on the same page without questions or issues so that the day moves smoothly! Thankfully, once I received my photo & video team’s information, they were so eager to help and learn about my wedding day! Sarah, Brian, and Bobbie were the dream team! They got everything that I could’ve wanted captured on my wedding day and more! They went above and beyond to make sure that my wishes were granted, and the lighting was perfect and everything! They were really easy to work with and made sure to get the job done quickly so that we were able to thoroughly enjoy our day! We received our photos from our wedding day a few weeks ago, and we are absolutely in love with all of them! I love the organization that they put the photos in as well as adding additional photos such as candids and other photos that were captured throughout the day! When we received the wedding videos, it was like we were reliving the day all over again! So amazing to be able to rewatch the ceremony, speeches, and dances with my loved ones and reminisce! 1000% recommend!

Jay & Nicole Vega decided to pursue a career together in the art of Photography. Met & married in Chicago in 2013, two people set out on a business venture of a lifetime. While Nicole is the main photographer of the company, we have also expanded and hired reliable, talented photographers to work along side with us, while still maintaining a small business feel.

Finding and working with Nicole was one of the best decisions I could have ever made for mine and my husbands wedding. Nicole from day one made sure to make herself available and was so informative. No matter how many questions I had or if I just wanted to update her about something she was always there, literally a friend from a far. Leading up to wedding day Nicole checked in with me and made sure she was current and up to date with all things wedding, she assisted me with the timeline and overall flow of the wedding day and even added in some suggestions. Nicole showed up on wedding day and it was so nice finally meeting her in person after almost a year of Facetime, calls, and texts. I have never met someone more professional. I would recommend Nicole over and over to anyone because she provides such quality in her photos and it was an absolute joy working with her.

I absolutely loved working with Audrey for our wedding! I had to write her a review. I found her for her beautiful photos but I'm most happy with my choice in her, for all the rest of the little things. We met with her to discuss engagement shoot and wedding photos and she was so thoughtful. She asked questions I hadn't even thought of and it was from those questions that really helped me plan the rest of the wedding day of. She gave me a photo timeline that was absolutely essential. The rest of my vendors were given her timeline and they were so thankful at her level of detail too. I appreciated the thoughtful small touches. The way she asked about any complicated family dynamics, who our chosen family was, who she should highlight etc. I appreciate that she didn't come with assumptions and asked questions, so gently. I've found that's rare in the bridal world. I would 100% recommend Audrey to anyone we know and absolutely loved our experience with her. We went with a second shooter and we loved Olivia too! They both did fantastic work and were so thoughtful and professional. Thank you for all you did for Mike and I, Audrey! We will always remember you as a the one who kept us all together!

Look no further - you have found your photographers, trust me! Clayton and Jordan have all of the checks, and then some. They photographed my wedding, as well as my sisters wedding, her sister-in-laws wedding, my brothers wedding, and one of my closest friend's wedding and in ALL cases their presence and quality of work was absolutely perfect. They have a way of bringing a sense of comfort and ease while photographing you and your families, balancing professionalism and charisma to make portraits super comfortable - they have kind and genuine personalities and obviously passion for the art they create and for providing their clients with a beautiful and meaningful reflection of important life milestones. Their talents are emphasized in this uncanny ability to create the most enchanting and magical candid photographs! When I looked through our wedding photos for the first time I remember thinking - how did they possibly capture that moment, I didn't even see them near us! Our pictures have this intangible quality where they almost reflect the exact "personality" of our wedding day. They have the experience, artistic eye, and this interpersonal empathy that will leave you with absolutely no regrets. We are forever grateful for Clayton, Jordan, and Lux Everlasting.

I was that kid enchanted by Disney Princess movies and the idea of "true love". My true love revealed itself through photography. At 8, I grabbed my dad's camera and was hooked, thrilled to show people my world. I started with zoo animals, friends, and siblings, eager to freeze moments in time. As I grew, I learned from local photographers and knew by 17 that photography was my calling. Since then, I’ve captured love in all its forms: couples, new parents, best friends, and the joy of seeing your favorite band live. The world is full of magical firsts, and I'm honored to capture these moments forever.

My husband and I can't recommend Kaitlyn enough. From the booking process, our engagement shoot, through the wedding itself Kaitlyn was thoughtful, professional, and attentive to our preferences and requests. She even drove 3 hours to do our engagement shoot in Wisconsin and was able to film our ceremony on her own! Her sneak peek the next day made us so so happy, and she got every photo on our list, including some out of order or spontaneous based on how the day went. We couldn't have been happier with Kaitlyn's services! Rachel & Alex

A Chicago-based wedding and elopement photographer that values genuine connection, authentic emotions, and getting to know my clients on a deep and personal level. I value capturing your moments and memories exactly how they happen, helping you to remember the feelings of intimacy, love, and warmth of marrying your person. PLEASE GO TO MY WEBSITE TO INQUIRE!

This is guaranteed to be longwinded because there aren't nearly enough words to explain how incredible Jayde is and how magical working with her was so if you're reading this, lock her in now and trust that you won't regret it because you're in amazing hands. For context, I was your quintessential type A bride with a very specific vision for my wedding. Given that, I was especially particular when it came time to pick our wedding photographer but from the moment we connected with Jayde, we knew she was the one. Beyond her professionalism and talent behind the lens, Jayde is kind, genuine, personable, patient, and caring, feeling like more of an old friend than your typical vendor. When we were torn on whether or not to do the first look, Jayde provided a high level of expertise and support, which led to us doing it and literally receiving photos that left us speechless. She also showed the highest level of enthusiasm for and dedication to capturing our day based on the vision described and literal 10 page mood board I created for her the week of our wedding, on top of the fact that she seamlessly captured photos of me and my husband on the skydeck, despite her personal fear of heights. During our initial conversations, I told Jayde that regardless of if I was looking at my photos six months post-wedding or 26 years later, that I wanted to be able to travel back in time and evoke the same emotions that we felt on our special day, and Jayde went way above my expectations, delivering breathtaking memories and stunning photos that we'll forever be grateful for. So all that said, if you're looking for someone who will ensure you're comfortable in front of the camera and will guide you flawlessly through the process of creating magazine worthy images that reflect the love shared between you and your partner, you NEED Jayde and I promise, you will not regret booking with her.
