As a young couple getting married, it was scary to trust a company to provide everything we needed, but we felt very confident when we talked with Steve. The communication with Steve was great and smooth! They offered a Photographer, Videographer, DJ, and Photo booth! Ron, Austin, and DeAndre were the dream team. If I could give more than five stars, I would.

I’m Marissa a photographer, mom, and wife. When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll usually find me adventuring around Chicago (or across the country) with my family. We love exploring new places, and I’ll never say no to a good plate of nachos, a Snickers, or a fizzy water. Photography has been part of me for as long as I can remember—I’ve always had a camera in hand. Fun fact: my daughters are even named after a camera and after light (can you guess their names?). What I love most is capturing real, meaningful moments, especially weddings. Being able to preserve love stories in an authentic and lasting way is truly the heart of what I do.

Awarded Best of Zola
I hired Marissa as our photographer this past June for our Long Beach, California Wedding knowing she was going to capture every moment beautifully. Let me tell you, she delivered so much more. She helped keep forward momentum through the whole night when everything was just a joyful blur I was lost in. When an issue arose with the second photographer, she found a solution before we even knew of the problem. She was such an incredible asset throughout the entire experience. On top of that, our photos came out incredible. She captured the feeling of the wedding. So many touching moments, celebrations, and Justin and I have never looked better. I’m obsessed. I can’t rave enough about how incredible Marissa is. I could not imagine our wedding without her, you shouldn’t either. 100000/100 highly recommend

Zachera Photo

  • Classic style

  • Serves West Chicago, IL

Love and storytelling have been the anchors of my life. What began with theatre and paint evolved into my photography career, and I learned love from the very best. This art form allows me to celebrate beauty and hold a mirror to what I believe is the best part of our existence - joy. For this, my heart overflows with gratitude.

Awarded Best of Zola
Choosing Zachera to photograph our wedding was the best decision we made. From start to finish, Zachera was there for us – going above and beyond, helping us warm up to the camera (thank goodness for the engagement shoots!), to staying on calls longer with me to ask how I was doing during the insurmountable wedding planning process, all the while keeping an open and transparent line of communication – Zachera simply ‘gets it’. She is one of the best humans to ever exist that is following her passion, and the expertise that comes with it can be seen in her work. The proof is in the puddin'! My husband and I can’t wait to work with Zachera again during other life milestones!

I’m a photographer who genuinely loves people and the art of storytelling. I don’t just show up with a camera—I show up as your biggest fan and your calm in the chaos. On your day, I’m fully in your corner, cheering you on, keeping things light, and making sure you feel comfortable being you.

Being Joy Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,799
  • Serves West Chicago, IL

For as long as I can remember I have always been around a camera. Growing up, my Mom was a big documenter of life freezing childhood moments in prints and recording videos. For my ninth birthday I received my first camera. GAME CHANGER. Boy was it fun to step on the other side of the camera. I was unstoppable, never letting my camera leave my side. From then on I cannot remember I time I hadn't owned a camera... or two... or three! Giving other the gift of memories is what brings me the most joy in life. To know that they will have moments they loved shared and reminisced for generations to come. That is everything.

Joy has been absolutely wonderful to work with in all capacities. She puts a lot of effort into getting to know her clients with personal touches that do not go unnoticed. Most photos taken of me (the bride) in normal life are of the marathon / running photo variety, so I wasn’t sure how I was going to feel with more posed couple photos. Joy made everything feel so natural and easy between both the engagement shoot and the wedding day. Joy is extremely organized and is fantastic with time management - her template for the timeline worked so well for further planning. When the ceremony ran over, she got us back on target and moving out of the church while getting all the photos we had requested. She has such great vision for small details and how things will photograph - I often said “I trust your vision!” and the photos turned out so stunning! I especially wanted to remember the day in color, and Joy absolutely delivered on that (and quickly, too - the sneak peeks came back the next day!). She truly captured the magic of a fairytale day, and I am thankful to her and her team for their hard work. Joy is an invaluable asset to have on your wedding day, and you truly will not regret booking with her.

Bellissima Photography and Design

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves West Chicago, IL

I knew I wanted to be a photographer the day I picked up my first camera. I was only 9, but I took that camera everywhere from that day forward. For me, seeing people's expressions is a huge part of why I do what I do. It's what I love. So i infuse that love in every wedding I photograph. Because we are boutique style studio, I listen to my clients on what's important to them, and I am able to tailor my photography to that. I feel that every client has a different story to tell, so not every wedding is the same. Our style is a mix of classic with a modern twist, and a dash of photojournalism.

Bellissima was easy to work with and was able to work with an outdoor fall wedding. She was available for whatever pictures were needed and was creative with her ideas of how to bring out the colors and wedding feel of a fall farm wedding. We were excited when we first met and was able to give our ideas. She traveled with the bridal party and took great pictures. We were very happy with the overall product.

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!

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.
