A friend recommended me to Rafik. She has been using him for everything: her wedding, kids' baptisms, birthdays, you name it, Rafik is her go to guy. I felt pretty confident going in but the service I actually received was incomparable. My wedding planning had not gone as planned so I was weary about my photographer. But Rafik made it possible for me to enjoy it! After leaving his office I could not wait for my special day to come just to see what him and his crew had captured. A few weeks later I got the call to come see them and I was left in awe. Small moments that I didn't remember happening, he captured. Tender touches & words of wisdom from family, all captured with his lens. I cried! Needless to say, I recommend Rafik and look forward to using him in the future!

My husband provided a wonderful, surprise gift of a portrait photoshoot with Barb Hauser…read morePhotography. I was very excited, as this was my first professional photoshoot at the age of 65. I first met Barb Hauser via Video Interview. Barb was so warm, friendly, professional, and thorough as she explained the process of our photoshoot to include make-up, hair, wardrobe, beautiful romantic and fun scenic backdrops and more. "The Boudoir Photoshoot" - Barb is truly an expert photographer. She was very meticulous with her lighting design and artistic skills. Barb's joyful and exuberant nature immediately made me feel beautiful inside and out. I even learned a few modeling techniques that I currently use in everyday photos. The results were absolutely AMAZING! I am EXTREMELY delighted with the high quality of the portraits, the variety of backgrounds, wardrobe, color portraits, black/white portraits, matting, moods, expressions and so much more. My appreciation and gratitude are given to Barb Hauser, Wy (Make-up/Hair Artist) and to my husband for the most "FABULOUS", experience of my lifetime! Audrey B.

Not only is he talented, but his entire team of photographers are kind, professional, and so easy to work with.

I'm so happy we met Leslie. We had a very small, family only ceremony and we wanted to have laughs and smiles during the event - nothing sappy and sentimental.

How can you go wrong with someone named Leslie?! :-)

In addition to being a total delight to work with, Michelle is the consummate pro. She shot our…read morewedding on digital, film, Super 8, and Instant Polaroid, and somehow didn't miss a single thing while she expertly switched between formats. Michelle's turnaround time was lightning quick. We very promptly received a "Sneak Peek" gallery which was a few hundred photos from every part of the event. My wife and I loved these photos and agreed that if this was all we received, we'd have been thrilled. Of course, there was still plenty more to come-- hundreds more photos as well as a beautiful 3 minute Super 8 video. For the posed photos, Michelle was quick and efficient, allowing us to spend the maximum time with our guests and enjoying our event. After that, she and her team captured candid moments in an expert fashion. Her vision and artistry during the unplanned segments resulted in my favorite photos of the whole event. St. Chelle is a great choice for your wedding or special event. I would hire them again in a heart beat and would happily refer them to any of my friends and family.

She was a serious PRO when it came to take the stressful family photos, and she captured every detail during the ceremony and reception. Perhaps most impressively, there was an error in our wedding photo album (the date of our wedding was wrong- but this was entirely MY FAULT). She was so kind and nice and offered to send the photo album back free-of-charge. THIS WAS MY FAULT but she was like, "don't worry about it, I'll take care of it." Michelle is a true professional. We cannot recommend her enough. Perhaps we'll book her for our wedding anniversary! And seriously, the photos she takes are gorgeous; just look at her website!

My team consisted of Nick, Micah and Jason and I was blown away by their professionalism and quite frankly adding to the fun. I told them in the beginning, I wanted to enjoy my wedding and not spend the whole time taking photos, which I quite often see happen at weddings but any time they needed us for photos, I didn't mind because they were were so fun to be with. It surely is sad how fast weddings go by. It was over in a blink of an eye but I'm so excited to be able to relive the most magical day of my life with the photos and videos that Sohi Productions took. I'd rate 10/5 if possible. Thank you Sohi Productions for making my amazing night memorable.

My fiance and I found Studio 1125 in a Chicago Bride's wedding magazine. What immediately made me…read moreinterested in the company was this was a photography studio that was more personal: it is a smaller studio and the two main photographers (Sean and Susan) are husband and wife. They are adorable and really seem to get to know the couples they are taking pictures of. Anyway, we met with Sean who has a great energy; we got along with him right away, so we booked him and his wife for our Wedding Pictures (our package came with free Engagement Photos too)! Today we had our Engagement Photos with both Sean and Susan and it was so much fun! We went all around the city of Chicago...downtown, Navy Pier, etc. and they both did a great job posing us, helping us relax and feel natural in front of the camera, and were very patient and fun! I found myself laughing almost the entire session! I definitely recommend Studio 1125 for wedding photographs and engagement photographs. I can't wait for our wedding pictures!
