My husband is my second photographer, so we come as a photo team! Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving so you look and feel natural and comfortable. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I Got You!

Awarded Best of Zola
Lacie was absolutely phenomenal to work with throughout the entire wedding planning process. From the moment we jumped on a phone call to see if they were a right fit, I knew they would be. Her enthusiasm, understanding, outgoing way that she relates to people is an energy that you want on your big day. Our engagement session was incredible, she moves so quickly but efficiently, as to ensure you get all the shots you want, but is very mindful of time. Our wedding day was COMPLETE because of Lacie. In addition to her positive attitude, she helped smooth the timeline of events during the day when exterior factors were impacting the photography, and problem solved so wonderfully on the spot. She stepped in to help in moments that were above and beyond what we hired her for, and for that I am truly grateful. Her photography style is versatile and beautiful, specifically catered to your preference. I can't imagine a better photographer for our wedding and we are so grateful!

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.

Shayla Loring Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,699
  • Serves Elwin, IL

As a wedding professional of 17+ years, I understand the importance of hiring a photographer you can trust. I've been photographing weddings since 2007 - I LOVE ALL things wedding! Watching your Mom zipping up your dress while she fights back tears, the first look with Dad as he sees his baby girl ready to walk down the isle... capturing all the little moments while you say "I do" is what I live for! I believe your wedding day is the start of your family legacy and it's meant to be captured and enjoyed for years to come.

As a DJ for over 25 years, I have worked with many photographers in my time. None are as easy, professional, and fun, to work with as Shayla Loring Photography is. I have had the pleasure a handful of times, and those are the weddings that go the smoothest. She has great communication skills, lots of unique ideas, and a passion to capture the night just the way the bride and groom want it. She also realizes the night is about the two getting married and her sole focus is on capturing the best memories in the photos. If you are in search of the BEST photographer, look no further!

I can't recommend Justine enough, from her professionalism, to her artistry she is a dream to work with. As a photographer myself, I am nervous, awkward, and admittedly particular about having photos of myself taken. With Justine at the help myself, my partner and all of our guests were at ease and the images she captured fully represent the vibrant and loving nature of our ceremony and celebration. Thank you Justine for being exactly who you are and doing what you do so beautifully. You have captured for us moments we will cherish forever.

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,600
  • Serves Elwin, IL

As an experienced wedding photographer who has photographed over 150 weddings in ten states, I've come to love joyful, adventurous couples who adore their friends and family. My couples tend to care most about genuine emotion and tender moments of the day and having timeless, classic, happy photos that will stand the test of time. They can't wait to have a stunning album full of the story of their wedding day to look at for years to come and share with generations. They see the wedding as the start of a beautiful marriage and care more about their marriage than making their wedding a production.

She was professional but fun – and completely unobtrusive, yet she was right there for every important moment and seemed to capture everything!

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.

We had our wedding in California and Edgar flew out and helped make our day so memorable! We didn't know him before and didn't end up doing an engagement shoot (so I was a little nervous) but he absolutely nailed it. His photos are stunning (I've gotten a TON of compliments on them), he is extremely communicative, and he had a bunch of photos ready to go by the end of the wedding. Both me and my husband aren't great at posing for photos and he knew exactly how to place us without it feeling faked. Super easy to work with and just a really nice guy. I'd highly recommend him to anyone!

Grace was a pleasure to work with during the wedding planning process. She was timely in her responses and upfront with pricing. On the day of the wedding, it felt like we were herding cats, but she remained professional and efficient. Even though we were running behind schedule with getting dressed, she managed to squeeze in a few dress shots and some first look photos. Grace remained patient even as some of our friends and family showed up late for photos! As we moved between locations, she made sure I was holding my dress in a way so that I wouldn’t fall on my face. She also helped my MOH bustle my dress after the ceremony (again, so I wouldn’t fall on my face). Grace was always cognizant of the lighting on location, and how it would affect photos. Her assistant, Joey, was lovely and accommodating as well. All in all, a wonderful experience!

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

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.

They were able to capture all of the milestones during the day and were even willing to hop on our party bus when we wanted footage of the wedding party driving around! We were so impressed by how quick the photos were delivered! We received a text while on our honeymoon the week after our wedding that our edited photos were done and one week later we received all our pictures! You don’t hear that often from photography companies! We also watched our wedding video trailer today (which was delivered in less than 2 months from our wedding) and can’t stop watching it! I would recommend 505 media to anyone!!
