Chicago Wedding
PhotoGRAPHERS
& VIDEOGRAPHERS
For The Madly In Love.
We’re two Chicago photographers + videographers that are alllllllll about the vibes.
Savor a cinematography and photography style that is closely in tune with your experience and your relationships. And you betcha we’ll be electrifyingly artistic, innovative and aware of what you need as the party goes from scenes of palpable romance to jumping into the pool (part of your planned exit, naturally).
Looking cool is one thing, but having the opportunity to get completely and gorgeously lost in the moment — that is a whole other ballgame. Our filmmaking and photography style prioritizes both — capturing the chic, well-designed aesthetics with an immersive perspective while you take these moments and make ‘em your own.
“200% RECOMMEND”
“Michael is a burst of energy and Nicole was a breath of fresh air. We recommend them 200% if you are looking for amazing photographers.”
– Jennifer | Wheaton, IL
AND OUR WORK SHOWS IT.
Queen of collaboration and wife to Michael, bringing fresh ideas and good vibes to your creative partners as she communicates behind the scenes
Lives on cloud nine when she knows that she’s helped you feel comfy and cute (be it with reassurance, classy footage of you or her Mary Poppins bag of snacks, hand warmers, water bottles, etc.)
The one you’ll warmly chat with before the wedding, and who quietly captures the in-between moments that feel as real as it gets
nontraditional wedding photographers

The Best Memories Involve
Sentimental
And made to last, of course. Allow us to personalize and energize the experience, and then produce timeless takes even strangers would cry over.
Sincere
We are here for the edge-of-your-seat emotions, the real smiles, the deep laughs. This entire story is charged by your love, and we’ve mastered the art of revving up good vibes for authentic captures.
Stunning
The framing, the details, the finesse of a team with a fine-tooth-comb approach. We’ll stand in a fountain if we have to (true story), but we’ll usually simply stay aware of the environment and angles so your photographs are ridiculously beautiful.
Started from the bottom, now we’re here.
How our Chicago videography business + photography our marriage began.
We met on the first day of our college photography class, and within weeks, we were already working side by side. We did anything we could to be behind the camera.
We built our brand, and our relationship, by making everything out of nothing. Now we’re happily married with two cats and the rest is history (meet the kitties below). And at least one annual vacation to somewhere tropical — last year it was the Dominican Republic; Greece is next!
Our vows, abridged – Because you should know how we feel about marriage.
From Michael
"Nicole, I vow to show up. Life is going to throw things at us, and when that happens, we will be there together. When you take a hit, I’ll be there to support you. When you are crying, I’ll be there till your cheeks are dry. When you are angry, I will be there to give you peace. Nicole, they say don't marry someone you like, but marry the person you couldn't live without. For me, these last three years have been the best years of my life; I can't wait to start a new journey with you and be by your side till the end of time. I love you with every ounce of me Nicole. Thank you for choosing me."
From Nicole
"The meaning of love is someone who makes you feel good about living. Who brings out the you who is joyful and giving - something that gives you a chance to be strong, or trust in another to help you along. Somewhere that you feel like you’ve been forever - a place where you’re growing and learning together - I feel that with you! I’ve found the someone who accepts me as I am, yet helps me to become a better, more fulfilled person… Love was unexpected - It truly found me when I needed it the most. Our love will be the greatest adventure in our lifetime and I cannot wait for that! I love you so very much."
The overlooked photo assistants
Unfortunately our cats can’t pick up the cameras (trust us, we tried), but we consider them Chicago photographers in training anyways.
Dee Dee
Sweetheart, quiet, lap cat, lovable (more like mom)
Dexter
Troublemaker, always seeking attention, a social butterfly (gets it from his dad)
