She worked her magic from the time we booked until she delivered our photos to us. Not only did she make us all feel comfortable during the photo shoot but also brought out the best in us all. These photos are precious keepsakes that will stand the test of time. I can not say enough about her flexibility in scheduling- we had to reschedule due to weather. She made us a priority.

We ended up doing a "micro wedding" in our backyard. The photos are stunning and he goes above and beyond and has the ability to manipulate the scenery to make the photos even more beautiful. We are very happy to have found him and plan to work with him in the future for family photographs. Highly recommended!

Shalin was our favorite wedding vendor by a mile. His photos for our wedding were simply gorgeous…read moreand he was incredibly easy to work with. Our wedding was scheduled for July 2020 and was postponed a year due to Corona. As a west coast bride, Shalin was kind enough to transfer my engagement photo session hours to the wedding because it was too risky to fly to Chicago in April. He re-worked our contract for the following year and honored the original price, which was great. On the wedding weekend he went above and beyond. He was so kind to our families, coordinated with all the other vendors, and did amazing photos while honoring our timeline. He got all our photos edited by the time he promised and sent us a flash drive with all the photos (over 8K for the 5 events he did for us that weekend). He also created a gallery with all those photos that we can share with family. If you don't want to worry about your photography, hire Shalin. His photos are simply gorgeous and you will love his interaction with you and your guest. Multiple family members told us how amazing he was.

She gets many of them from handmade artists in Europe. Agata is the consummate professional, knowing just how to pose newborns, not only to get wonderful photos, but to do it safely and with lots of support, all while keeping the precious little ones asleep. She captured such touching images of us as a family as well. She has both an all neutrals and white choice for the background as well as darker woods, so there's a great variety and what she can do. If you communicate what you were looking for, there's a very high chance she can make it happen. Agata was also very professional in her communication and outlined exactly what would be needed to make the shoot go smoothly on the day of. if you're looking for some of the highest quality, newborn and family photos in the northern suburbs, II highly recommend her.

WARNING: DO NOT TRUST SONYA I hired Sonya in May 2020 as a…read morefull-time planner to help me plan a wedding for Aug 2022. I worked with Sonya for 4 months before I terminated the contract. In the 4 months, Sonya did not do anything except e-mail some venue options. I found Sonya to be highly unprofessional and dishonest. Sonya does not communicate and kept making excuses for not being able to accomplish any tasks. I got frustrated with her lack of progress and started planning my own wedding. It took me only 3 weeks to tour multiple venues and book one. Sonya would send me venue options via e-mail but never followed up or scheduled tours. She blamed the venues and claimed they were not responding to her. Weeks would go by and I would hear nothing from her. I checked up on her every 2-3 weeks to even get any information. After 3 months, she calls me saying she found a venue. She tells me it is within my budget and allows outside catering. She askes me to send me my availability to schedule a in-person tour. I send her my schedule and don't hear anything back. Two weeks later I call her and ask what happened. She again makes excuses that the venue isn't responding, etc. A few days later she e-mails me a contract for the venue with no information except the attached contract. The contract did NOT match anything Sonya told me over the phone. It was double the cost and did not allow for outside catering. I asked Sonya and she said it was just an "example" of a contract for me to see (what?) and that she will work it out with the vendor. Guess what? Never heard from Sonya again about this venue. We communicated to Sonya about our concerns with her work she never addressed them. I got frustrated and decided to contact venues on my own. In two weeks, I set MULTIPLE in-person venue tours and within 3 weeks I secured a venue that was within my budget and had flexible catering options. I fired Sonya after that. I did not have any issues contacting venues or hearing back from them. Sonya was being dishonest. I asked her to refund my deposit and she has not. I have filed a formal complaint to the BBB. Because of Sonya wasting 4 months, I was not able to secure the date I wanted. TLDR - Sonya took our deposit and accomplished nothing for 4 months. She barely communicated and she did, it was constant empty excuses and lies. She has refused to refund us. Because of her negligence I was not able to get the date I wanted at my venue.

Sonya was kind, understanding, helped me find vendors, created my wedding timeline, ran errands, and so much more. Everything was so easy from the beginning. It starts with an initial consultation and she lays out all the details of her services. She was direct and genuinely does all that she can so the bride and groom can enjoy their day. She is also incredibly creative, energetic, and will go out of her way for you. I don't know what we would have done without her!
