About Emma Mullins Photography
Emma Mullins Photography
Digital + Film Wedding Photography Hi! I'm Emma, owner and lead photographer of Emma Mullins Photography. Our goal is simple: to capture your vibe, your people, and your love in a way that looks and feels true to life. We just wrapped our 13th Chicago wedding season, and it's been a whirlwind of all things real and fabulous! Emma Mullins Photography embraces diversity and inclusivity. We are a proud ally of the LGBTQ+ community and happy to serve humans of every background, gender and identity.
My hands-off, documentary approach allows couples to feel totally comfortable in front of the camera (it's the number one thing mentioned in our Reviews!). Expect a mix of candid moments and contemporary portraiture while still being able to enjoy time with your guests. For a glimpse of what it's like to work with me on wedding day, check out our Behind-the-Scenes video! Sound like what you're looking for? Inquire through my web site to get started!

Emma made our dreams come true
We are huge fans of Emma! Here are 5 reasons she should also be your wedding photographer: 1. Emma is incredibly nice and was so generous with wedding organizing wisdom. She helped us feel more confident about the thousands of small details in the entire process, from our first Zoom meeting with her to the engagement photo shoot to the final shots on our wedding day 2. She is incredibly thorough as a communicator. We never had any question about what she needed or what she was doing before, during, or after the ceremony. And she was even very communicative via email with our moms(!) 3. She is so organized but also so creative. She kept our wedding day smooth by planning out all the posed shots needed, and she got all photos back to us in an always impressive timeframe. But she was also always open for a surprising shot or a little experiment. It made her work feel even more personal 4. She was a rock star on our wedding day, if you couldn’t tell. And she was a super fun hang during our engagement photo session, which featured Emma, my wife, and I improvising playful shots during a sudden rain storm(!) 5. Most of all, when she’s taking photos of you, her excitement in that moment fires you up more and makes you feel so comfortable. She makes you feel like your pictures are the best wedding photos ever taken. (But ours were, obviously)
Response from vendor•Dec 7, 2025Nick, this is such a kind review! Thank you so much for sharing!! It was an absolute honor to capture your wedding day, and I will never forget the surprise rain during your engagement session :) Thank you again for having us! CONGRATS again to you and Moira!!!Loved Working with Emma and Her Team!
Working with Emma Mullins and her team was one of the very best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, Emma took the time to truly get to know us, what mattered most to us, and how she could capture our story in a way that felt authentic. As two people who are a bit camera-shy, we were amazed at how natural and comfortable she made us feel in front of the camera. Her warmth, professionalism, and easygoing personality instantly put us at ease. One thing that stood out was how incredibly prepared and thoughtful Emma was every step of the way. She provided us with so many helpful recommendations leading up to the big day: everything from navigating the permit process at the Honeycomb in Lincoln Park to curating a list of photo types we might want to include in our wedding album. Her guidance made planning so much easier and ensured that nothing important was overlooked. On the wedding day itself, Emma and her team were absolutely phenomenal. They anticipated every moment, seamlessly blending into the background while still capturing every detail. When it unexpectedly started to rain, Emma didn’t miss a beat. She had brought along beautiful, photogenic umbrellas so we could keep our outdoor shoot going without stress. That level of preparedness and care is something we will never forget. Our photos turned out more stunning than we could have ever imagined. They perfectly reflect the joy, love, and emotion of the day, and we’ll treasure them for a lifetime. Emma’s artistry, dedication, and thoughtfulness are unmatched. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who not only produces incredible images but also makes the entire experience stress-free, fun, and memorable, we cannot recommend Emma Mullins enough. She is a true gem, and we are endlessly grateful to her and her team.
Emma was a joy to work with!!!
Emma and her associate, Sasha, were an absolute joy to work with. From the planning stages, to engagement photos, to our wedding day, Emma was communicative, professional, and uplifting. Our engagement session photos are beautiful and surpassed what we hoped for. For our wedding, we asked for photos both downtown and in Lincoln Park, and Emma knew all the best spots. We were pleasantly surprised by how many sneak peek photos Emma provided us just a few days after the wedding, and we can’t wait to see the entire wedding album in a few weeks! We also received many compliments from our guests about how great Emma was. Please book Emma for your own engagement/wedding, you won’t regret it. :)
Response from vendor•Sep 22, 2025Vivienne, thank you so much for these kind words!! We absolutely loved being part of your day, I'm so happy we could help bring your wedding vision to life :) Thank you again for having us! CONGRATS again to you and Zach!!!A Joy to Work With
We loved working with Emma, and we are so happy that she shot our engagement and wedding photos. Both of us were very nervous to be in front of a camera, but Emma's excitement and guidance made it such a comfortable and fun experience each time. Emma made each step of the process so easy. Consults were a breeze. Details were clear. Her timelines were very helpful and thoughtful. Emma was so thorough and accommodating in her planning that we went into the big day with zero worries about the photography. When the wedding day did roll around, she and Alexis did a wonderful job of documenting everything from the small details to the big moments, from candids to posed portraits. We were so thrilled to go through our first look and final galleries, and we really could not be happier with what she delivered. Emma rocks. Her photos rock. If you're looking for an engagement or wedding photographer, we recommend her wholeheartedly!
