Carey Primeau has been documenting weddings for 20 years and provides a supportive roll with honesty and flexibility. With a friendly, creative and artistic perspective, Carey will help bring out the best in you.

As the Mother of the Groom, I cannot say enough wonderful things about our wedding photographer Carey Primeau! From the very first moment, Carey was warm, professional, calm, and incredibly attentive - not just to the bride and groom, but to everyone in the family. On such an emotional and fast-moving day, Carey had an amazing ability to capture the most meaningful moments naturally and beautifully, without ever feeling intrusive. What impressed me most was his eye for detail and emotion. Carey captured the love, joy, laughter, and even the quiet, tender moments that mean so much to a mother watching her son begin this new chapter. The photographs are absolutely stunning—timeless, elegant, and full of life. Every image tells a story, and together they perfectly reflect the spirit of the day. Beyond Carey's INCREDIBLE talent, his kindness and patience stood out! Family photos were handled smoothly and efficiently, as he made everyone feel comfortable and at ease. I am beyond grateful for the memories Carey preserved for our family. These photos will be cherished for generations! If you are looking for a photographer who is Exceptionally Skilled, genuinely caring, and truly invested in capturing your wedding day perfectly, look no further. Hiring Carey Primeau was one of the very best decisions we made.

ABOUT BILL McNEELY I have been working in media for 35years. I developed my skills by volunteering in our ministry's media department as a videographer and photographer. I soon developed a love for media and went on to serve for 10 years as our church's network media director. Some of my personal favorite events to cover are weddings, but I love any chance to help create memories. I look forward to the opportunity to serve you!

I had a wonderful experience with Flash Media Groups’ photography services. The entire process was professional, smooth, and handled with great attention to detail. Communication was clear, timelines were honored, and the final product truly reflected quality work. The touch-ups were especially impressive—very natural, polished, and flattering without looking over-edited. It’s clear that care is taken to make sure clients still look like themselves, just enhanced in the best possible way. William McNeely clearly cares about his customers and their satisfaction. That level of customer care shows in how attentive, patient, and accommodating the service feels from start to finish. You can tell there is pride in the work and a genuine desire to make sure clients walk away happy. Overall, I highly recommend Flash Media Groups for anyone looking for professional photography with high-quality editing and excellent customer service.

DeAnda Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,895
  • Serves North Chicago, IL

Hi, Im Carol DeAnda, born and raised in the southwest suburbs and now living in Lake in the Hills Illinois, with my studio in downtown Algonquin. I have always been the one with the camera since grade school, but it wasn't until high school I realized that this could be my calling. After high school, I attended Harrington College of Design for the Digital photography program and started on my path to becoming a professional photographer. I am a PPA member and CPP (Certified Professional Photographer) and hold the Master Wedding Photographer degree from PPA, as well as a member of The Wedding Equality Alliance.

Carol and her team are ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL when it comes to photography! The work is second-to-none, the professionalism is always consistent, and everyone is always so friendly! :) I have been working alongside Carol at weddings for several years now. As a DJ, it can be tough to communicate with vendors and make sure everyone is always ready to go. This is definitely not the case with Carol. I'm able to find her in a moment's notice and she's ready to capture those precious moments in an instant! Not to mention, her genuine love for her clients. Each and every couple that she works for she gives her all - and that not only shows on the day of an event, but also in her work. Carol and her team edit and produce SOME OF THE BEST PHOTOGRAPHY WORK I HAVE EVER SEEN. Seriously. If you haven't checked out her portfolio, do it now. Carol has an eye for not only capturing your ideas, but also the tiny details that no one else would ever think about. Do yourself a favor a book with Carol and her team.

My name is Elliot Stokes and I am a photographer located in the Madison, WI area, but I work all across Wisconsin and Illinois. I have been drawn to the camera since I was young, but becoming a father has really shown me the magic behind capturing the most candid and beautiful moments of our lives. I started my journey into professional photography officially in the summer of 2019 and received my Bachelors of Fine Arts degree with honors in Digital Photography in the spring of 2022. I absolutely love what I do and look forward to every new experience and opportunity this journey takes me on!

Awarded Best of Zola
Elliot made all of our dreams come true. His professionalism and talent does not go unnoticed. He was the first vendor we booked for our wedding before we even had a venue figured out because of how much we loved his work. He is incredibly responsive to texts and emails which is so important when planning a wedding. He was very prepared for the wedding day! Elliot was able to make sure we stayed on schedule and even moved events around when needed to get the best photos possible since our wedding was outside. He went above and beyond to make our wedding run smoothly. By the end of the night, we didn't want it to end so we even extended his services by an hour which he happily made work. We even had sneak peeks by dinner time which surprised us. We could not have asked for a better photographer for our wedding. I am recommending him to all of my friends with weddings in the future. I can't imagine my wedding any other way. Thank you Elliot!

We can not recommend IG PHOTO VIDEO INC enough. We had Tetyana and Egidijus as our photographers and Irad as our videographer. We also were in contact with Ivan. He was extremely communicative throughout the entire process. From introducing us to Tetyana, Egidijus and Irad, How the process would happen from start to finish to getting our photos and videos back. The photos and video blew us out of the water. We are so in awe of the work and quality they put into our day. They were truly the best to work with from start to finish. The only thing is we have so many pictures I can not choose a favorite. (But that's a great problem to have) They truly captured my husband and I in our photos and videos and we are so blessed we came across their page. This company is 100 percent worth the money and we wouldn't have changed a single thing. You guys were amazing in person and in your work! You can definitely tell they love what they do by the work they produce. A huge thank you to Tetyana, Egidijus, Irad, and Ivan for helping make our day extra special and a day we can look back on in 50 plus years!

You are probably assuming my about me section will have a story about how I always wanted to be a photographer, I came out of the womb holding a camera, but that couldn’t be me. I stumbled into it, literally. I had no plans to become a wedding photographer. I was either going to follow my dad’s path and go to dental school, or become a social worker. But a freshman in college decided to shoot a few photos for fun, and now over eight years and almost 200 weddings later, I could not imagine myself doing anything else. This is my dream job!

Awarded Best of Zola
Abby wasn’t able to travel to my wedding but she sent her assistants and she edited the photos. It went absolutely perfect. The photos were beautiful and I got so many meaningful photos with my family and his family that I wouldn’t have thought to get. I sent her draft of a timeline and the photographers printed it out and had it to make sure the photos I wanted got done. They were absolutely amazing. Thank you so much to Abby and her team.
