I can't say enough good things about Greenkey Photography. It's been almost a year since our…read morewedding and I have *not once* thought, "I wish we had done that with the photographs" or "I wish my photos would have such-and-such". I would not change one thing. We worked with Kieffer and he was professional, calming, and inspiring every single time we met. We were on the fence about an engagement photo session. He recommended it so that we would get used to having someone in our faces with a camera. At first, never having worked with a professional photographer, that maybe it was just a nudge to an upsell. But it was included in the package we selected and it really worked!! My camera-shy wife was so much more comfortable on our wedding day because of it. Green Key came up with the theme for our engagement photos and they turned out so well! We still go back and look at the album. Kieffer also suggested making a photo book of our engagement photos with white space and using it as our guest book. It was such a great idea and everyone loved it! The wedding day was unbelievable. He took care of everything imaginable. There were fun pictures that I didn't even notice him taking, and he captured some moments that I will remember forever. Looking back at our photos helped me recapture some things too, because the day does go by so fast! I wanted some funny face pictures with my young nephews (because we always do them at every holiday) and he was totally up for it! Nothing threw him, he got all the pictures of my...difficult...family members, and made it all work. And of course, price. The value was amazing. We compared him with other photographers and the price compared to what we got was substantially different than other photographers. Sometimes you worry about it when you get a good deal but not here. He was genuinely well priced for an amazing talent. I could go on and on about Kieffer from Greenkey Photography. I'd hire him again in a heartbeat.

Greenkey DJ and DJ Nick Laudadio are TOP NOTCH. From the initial meeting all the way to the final…read moresong of the wedding, Nick was extremely easy to work with. Planning a wedding can be stressful, and the music can be one of the biggest stressor since it sets the mood for the reception. However, Nick's experience and knowledge helped to set us at ease. Nick is very adaptable and can give you as much or as little help as you require. We sat with Nick and we gave him an idea of the type of bands and music that we liked. From there he was able to start to create a playlist that he would use. After he shared the playlist with us, I could tell that he had a pretty good idea of what we like and it was clear he paid attention to what we discussed to create a solid playlist. Next, I worked with him to to give him a few other ideas of some songs/moods we would like to add to enhance what he had already done. The more information you share with him, the better things get. He is excellent at zeroing in on the information you give him to personalize the music to your taste. However, if you wanted to be a little more hands off, there is no doubt he can take care of you too. Like I said, even with a minimal amount of input he was well on his way to creating an awesome playlist that still would have been great. No matter what you want, Nick will be able to work with you to make sure that your reception will reflect you! Our whole reception was awesome, and I actually had multiple guest tell me during the event that they loved the music! It doesn't get much better than that! Give Nick a call, he will take good care of you!

We hired Mark for our 9/28 destination wedding in Chicago. He was recommended to me by the DJ…read morecompany [DRM Entertainment] and we could not have asked for more. I'm a pretty frugal guy, so my ideal wedding photographer would be my friends with digital cameras. Alas, that viewpoint is not shared by my wife, so the next best option was Mark Campbell. He was very reasonable and absolutely top-tier. We received the photos via DVD today and they are perfect. He even created a photo label for the DVD... cool added touch, whereas he could have simply written on it with a Sharpie. Also, included was an extra DVD copy for each of our families. At the wedding, he did his thing and directed the photo shoots and was just super organized and energetic. Highly, highly recommend Mark for your Chicagoland events.

I'm going to be honest here as I have a lot of respect for the YELP process…read more Mark worked with me on a number of jobs last summer and for that reason I feel I should not pretend that I can offer an objective review of his work. However I can attest to his character and people skills. Mark has the perfect temperament for a photographic artist, he is able to make people comfortable in a short space of time and works in a relaxed approachable fashion in order to bring the best out of his subjects. Like I said I won't offer an opinion of his work but you can bet that I would happily work with him again in the future, and that's probably the best recommendation that I could give.

I got married abroad and I was looking for a photographer for our second wedding ceremony back…read morehome. I came across Matt's website and knew he would be the perfect fit for us. The ceremony was small and low key with no bridal party/groomsmen. We just mainly wanted group photos with different family members and friends post ceremony, in addition to pictures during the ceremony. Matt was responsive and always easy to get in touch with, not to mention a really kind and nice person. Since this was the second time around, we did not want to do any artsy couples photos around the city or any getting ready pictures, and he was very understanding to what are needs were. Matt was amazing to work with! He was easygoing and laid back. I would definitely book him again for another family event or special occasion in the future. I highly recommend working with him! Thank you Matt for being there to capture our special day!

My path first crossed with Mr. Cohen when we were trick or treating in the downtown area where his…read morestudio is located. He was taking complementary pictures of the kids in their costumes. Then we actually won a gift card toward the cost of pictures (for guessing the correct weight of a pumpkin!)

So, with the first experience out of the way, we jumped in with a request for family portraits (Four Generations). They were absolutley lovely and he handled the kids with grace and calm. Mr. Cohen is now our go-to photographer. You will not be disappointed!

We are indeed very fortunate to have chosen Michael Lee Photography for our wedding. His website is…read morea great introduction. He is a third generation photographer, and we loved his philosophy. A quote from him we repeated often in the days leading up to the wedding, "If love is in the room, nothing else matters." We submitted a request through the website, and he got in touch quickly. We had a wonderful conversation, which gave us complete confidence to enter into a contract with him. Before our special day, we had a virtual meeting to go over the shot list, and he asked all kinds of great questions. On the day of our wedding, he was early, and ready for us when we were. He is great at communicating with you, keeping it light, and getting great expressions. He worked wonderfully with the caterers to prepare the scenes inside the venue. He was always kind and professional. Working through the shot list, he learned everyone's names, and kept the posing and taking of photos fun and relaxed. We received so many compliments from our guests about how wonderful Mike was. Then we got our photos! At first he would text us teasers, and they were all amazing. Then before too long, we received a link to our own website with all of the photos, and then received a USB drive with all of our shots. We're very excited to receive prints. I cannot recommend Michael Lee Photography enough.

He has a very impressive yet unimposing style, and while he happily took any formal photographs that we wanted, he excelled at "capturing the moment" shots. He took our suggestions and improved upon them and was able to direct us to the shots that he recognized we would want. And during the wedding and reception I barely even noticed he was there yet he got so many great shots. We received the photos within the time he estimated and just loved them. I am so happy that we went with Mark--he has a great eye and I would highly recommend for everyone--and he is very flexible and works with your budget. Couldn't ask for better!
