Hello Rose Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,500
  • Serves East Chicago, IN

Hi there! I'm Emily Rose, behind Hello Rose Photography. I have been shooting weddings for a decade and love connecting with my clients as much as I love photographing them! They feel like close friends by the end of the day. I am documentary-style, in that I never stop shooting. While I help with posing during portrait sessions to make sure you look your best, I also love capturing the laughter of guests, the teary-eyed parents, the flower girl running up to you and hugging you at first sight, the tiny details, the smirk you share with your spouse at the altar and the quiet, intimate moments between you two throughout the day.

Emily is an absolute delight to work with. She works with you to provide the perfect pictures that you envision. She did both our engagement and wedding photos and we will will cherish them both forever. Emily has amazing talent and team and it is displayed in every photo they take. We are so grateful for her!

Please visit my website + fill out the contact form for more information + to receive a Wedding Guide! I absolutely love capture those in between moments with my combination or posed and candid style in photography. I also aim to help my couples as much as I can during the planning process by providing any vendor suggestions they may need as well as creating a timeline to allow the day to flow more smoothly.

There is so many things I can say about my wonderful experience with my photo shoot! Due to COVID my husband and I just got married at the court house and all I wanted were some beautiful photographs. I found Brenda through a random search on Instagram and I fell in love with her work. I’m so lucky that I found her. From the moment I contacted Brenda she was SO informative. I was impressed at her location guide with SO many places not too far from me. When I met Brenda in person at the photo shoot she was so sweet and passionate about how and where to pose us. Her personality is great! My husband prefers to speak Spanish so I was happy that Brenda was able to explain how to pose us in Spanish. I highly recommended Brenda for any photo shoot you want to have and I will definitely be booking her for future events.

We offer a personalized experience backed up by more than 33+ years in business delivering high quality, creative photography and video on time and within your wedding budget. We are experts in photojournalism, offering couples an unmatched level of value for their wedding photography and video services.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Eivan’s for our wedding was a great decision! Our photographer Gregory I was professional and FUN! He kept us smiling throughout the day with his quirky personality! My fiancé does not care for photos so I’m happy we had someone working with us who could make him comfortable. He made sure to get multiple images even if it was just “one more”, it was never one more! We had actually hired a different photographer and we replaced him with this company. Worth the stress and money! If I had any tips for the company, it would be to have your photographers give a 30 minute warning before their contracted time is up. Weddings are so busy for the bride and groom, it is very easy to lose track of time. I think clients would appreciate a little heads up just so they can try and capture any photos they may have missed. Other than that, I have ZERO complaints. Such an amazing experience! 10/10 highly recommend :)

Pedro was awesome! We were looking for a local (in Chicago) photographer, and found the perfect one. He was super easy to work with, and took amazing pictures. Our initial meeting was via Zoom, which made working it around our schedule super easy. He was extremely responsive to all of my emails, and even was workable with our budget and what we wanted to accomplish with photography. I love his ability to take un-staged, in the moment photos as well as great family photos. He went above and beyond for us, and we are grateful for so many amazing photos to choose from. I would definitely hire him again in a heartbeat.

I booked Sarah for our intimate wedding in April, and I couldn't be happier with the results. My husband is a photographer, so he was very picky about wanting a photographer who would capture the natural beauty of our unconventional wedding in our favorite restaurant. Looking through Sarah's work, we really loved how her work didn't look staged or overly edited. When we got back our photo proofs, we were even more blown away. During our pre-dinner photoshoot, we have so many stunning photos of us in our favorite Chicago neighborhood, both in places we wanted and in cute little alleys and doorways that she found day-of. And then during dinner, despite pretty cramped quarters, we have photos of all of our 40 guests enjoying the evening. We will treasure Sarah's work for years to come!

Lyndsey was amazing through our whole wedding process; from engagement photos, meetings, and the wedding day! She helped two people who generally don’t like their pictures taken feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Her style of photography was exactly what we were looking for and we are so thrilled with the outcome. Lyndsey set up a meeting prior to our wedding and created a whole timeline for photos that went along with what our coordinators at the venue had planned. As a big planning person this was so nice for me to see how the whole day would fit together. My favorite thing about working with Lyndsey was just her in general. She is truly a kind person who is passionate about her work. She has an eye for photography that I haven’t seen in any one else’s work. The poses that she created felt natural and came across beautifully. I can’t recommend her enough. If you are looking for timeless looking photos that don’t fit into that standard wedding photo box then she is the one for you! I am so thankful to have worked with her during my wedding journey, she made everything amazing! I look forward to working with her again in the future.

I resonate with intimate, honest weddings, ones that present as unique and authentic, ones with tradition but they threw that tradition out the door and made their day an authentic representation of their marriage. As an artist, I am able to document weddings while incorporating my own artistic visions and yours. I love natural light, nature, and intimate moments. It is important to me for you to trust me as photography is a collaboration.

I must have gone through three dozen portfolios looking for a wedding photographer. We didn’t want your typical run of the mill cheesy pics but rather ones that really tapped in to us a couple. The pictures Megan took had depth and really captured our feelings in that moment. Highly recommend.

Hello, I’m Melissa! I’m a wedding & lifestyle photographer with a heart and eye for the genuine, real, and joyful moments! Based in Chicago but let’s be real, I love to travel - so take me with you! :) My heart as a photographer is to document your moments genuinely & always true to color. So that one day you will look back & remember not just what it looked like - but what it FELT like!

Melissa and her crew were exceptionally communicative and collaborative throughout our entire planning process. They provided excellent support the day of the wedding and showed both flexibility and calmness throughout the event. Overall picture quality was good, but the photos of the wedding itself and post-wedding family gathering suffered from bad lighting and unfortunate positioning. This may have been more about the venue itself (Osteria via Stato in Chicago), but there was room for improvement.

Born and raised in Joliet, IL. but now based in Pontiac, IL my husband and I love to travel all around the state and also out of it. Since I was a kid I've always loved photography and always had a camera I could get my hands on ready. It mostly consisted of my older sister's old cameras but I would make it work. I’ve been photographing weddings professionally since 2017. I like being the friend in the background taking pictures of you while you take it all in. That's the feeling I like to give my clients, posed and candid pictures.

I appreciate the clear communication and attention to to detail. She is good at capturing the spirit of the moment and has reasonable pricing. Photos were received promptly. I would definitely recommend this photographer.

I developed a deep passion for photography when I was just 12 years old. Back then, capturing moments with my friends and family meant using Kodak Film, which was not as effortless as it is today. Since then, photography has remained my true calling. In 2002, I pursued my love for journalism and photography by studying at the reputable Institute of LAINSPROCOM. From 2006 onwards, I have been professionally capturing the beauty of weddings and portraits. My photography style can best be described as honest, sincere, and intimate. I strive to capture the raw emotions and captivating moments that make each occasion unique.

Our experience with Widlet was amazing. He is such a fun photographer to be around. He is very professional and got the eye to catch the perfect shot. In overall we ended with BEAUTIFUL PICTURES. I would recommend him without a doubt.

From my first moment as a wedding photographer, I knew I wanted to kick tradition to the curb. I was tried of seeing wedding photography that excluded the communities that I hold closest. I work hard to form a real connection with each of my clients to craft an experience that captures their unique spirit.

Ashley is so perceptive and talented! I told her a little bit about us and our style and she created the right balance between moodiness and fun that we wanted. She always got back to us just under 24 hours and answered every question that we had. She is dedicated to her clients and their needs. I enjoyed being in her company because she made us feel comfortable. She understood our needs and never pressured us to do anything out of our comfort zone. We are a more laid back, care-free couple, so we gave Ashley lots of space to experiment and it definitely paid off. If nothing else has convinced you, we have already booked our 1 year anniversary photos with her and I will continue to go back to her for any event that should be photographed.

Hi, I’m Kirsten, the creative heart behind Kirsten Wray Photography! Since 2008, KWP has been capturing life’s most amazing moments, right here in Indianapolis and beyond. After earning my Bachelor of Fine Arts from Ball State University, I followed my passion for photography to the vibrant city of Indy, where I’ve been telling stories through my lens ever since. Whether it's local events or adventures across the globe, I’m all about creating stunning, authentic images for my incredible clients. Let’s make magic together!

Kirsten Wray Photography was absolutely fantastic to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, Kirsten's communication style was direct, effective, and genuinely sweet - she immediately put us at ease as a couple who doesn't usually love being in front of the camera. Despite having a huge family that was challenging to wrangle, Kirsten was professional, prompt, and thorough in getting all the group shots we wanted. The finished photos are of excellent quality and editing, capturing all the special moments of our day in a way that exceeds our expectations. Kirsten went above and beyond to deliver amazing photos, and we couldn't be happier with the results. We highly recommend Kirsten Wray Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

AwestrucKen Photography focuses on ensuring great moments in time are caught. As much as we are tech/gear heads with regards to equipment, we also know that the greatest piece of equipment any photographer can have is his/her brain. We pride ourselves on using our brains and our gear to not just take pictures, but to tell stories. While pictures, as Dorothea Lange says, “take an instant out of time; altering life by holding it still”, it’s also important that each instant of time is part of a person or event’s story.

Ken was the absolute perfect addition to our special day! Obviously you cherish your wedding photos forever and we could not be happier with them! On our big day, he made sure to get the most beautifully stunning yet natural shots that we envisioned while making sure we were comfortable and having the absolute best time.
