"Jeremy did such a wonderful job with our wedding-- he captured so many beautiful, silly, fun moments throughout the day. Before the wedding he was so clear with his communication and was helpful for providing suggestions to get the best pictures possible while still getting to be in the moment and enjoy the day. Afterwards we got our pictures in a timely manner and were very happy with the result. I would highly recommend him."

Pricing FAQ
What do most couples invest for weddings?
Most couples invest $6,000–$7,500 for complete coverage with two photographers. This includes timeline planning, 48-72 hour highlights, and full gallery delivery.
Can we customize a package?
Absolutely. Tell me your plan and I'll tailor coverage, team size, and deliverables to fit. No one-size-fits-all here.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. Reserve with a retainer, then split the balance into 2–3 payments on a schedule that works for you. Zero-stress financing.
What if our venue isn't "Instagram-worthy"?
I started as a street photographer. I can make a parking lot look cinematic. Your venue matters way less than you think. Light, emotion, and framing—that's what makes photos beautiful.
Do you charge travel fees?
Local Chicago coverage is included. Modest travel applies outside the metro or for destination events.
Do you shoot LGBTQ+ weddings?
Absolutely. Love is love. Non-traditional ceremonies and same-sex weddings are not just welcome—they're celebrated.
What if we're awkward in front of the camera?
Most of my couples are. I use my theater director background to give you natural prompts that don't feel forced. You'll forget the camera's there.
When do we get our photos?
Highlights in 48-72 hours. Full gallery in 2 weeks (standard) or 7 days with rush delivery add-on.
Ready to Lock In Your Date?
I only take 20-25 weddings per year to maintain quality. If your date's available, let's talk.
