It has been a few months since my wedding and I'm finally getting around to writing this review…read more Honeymoon, name change, new job, oh my! We're sorry this is so delayed, Victoria, but I wanted to make sure that you and the world knew how happy we were with our photos. Victoria and her team were fantastic! She did both our engagement photos and wedding photos and they turned out amazing. Honestly, exceeded my expectations, given the typical, plain photos I'm used to seeing from weddings. She gave us a mix of portraits, moments and detail shots, all of which were fantastic. Originally, we didn't want to see each other before the ceremony and we were going to try to shove all our photos into an hour after the reception, all the while missing our cocktail hour. Boy am I glad Victoria recommended first look photos... I don't know if I would have survived the day otherwise! It took a few months for me to come around to the idea, but I'm so happy we did. I was so stressed about the day-of schedule the weeks leading up to our big day. When we decided to switch our schedule completely at the very last minute, Victoria took it in lock-step and the whole day ended up just perfect! WE HAD SO MUCH MORE TIME TO ENJOY and we weren't rushing around from event to event. Thank you, Victoria, for helping me keeping my sanity on the day-of and leading up to it. We had such a wonderful day! PS. Here is my favorite picture of that day... WHUT!?!?!?!?!?

She worked with us during the whole process to ensure that no important moments were missed and helped mold the timeline for the day. On top of that, she is a joy to be around and made us feel so comfortable - something that is important on a day when anxiety can be high. 100% recommend!

From beginning to end her services were top notch. She helped us plan out our photos, making sure we got everything we wanted in the time slotted, and we had the most fun day taking our wedding photos with her. Our guests even raved about how fun it was to have her capturing special moments during our reception. She made every aspect of the process so easy, stress-free and smooth and I cannot recommend her enough. We just got some sneak peek photos back and were blown away by how perfectly she captured the very specific vision we had in mind. HIGHLY recommend working with Bethany for your wedding, or other, photo needs!

Bethany is extremely professional and caters to your desires for your special day. She brings a calming presence to an often stressful process of wedding planning and on the actual wedding day. She is genuinely kind, funny, creative, and talented, and we trusted her ENTIRELY to capture our day. As the bride and groom, we had a million thoughts going through our heads on the big day, but we never, ever worried about our photos. Bethany is the person to work with if you want professionalism, attention to detail, genuine love and care, and kick a** photos!!! We are forever grateful to Bethany, and we would recommend her to anyone for their special day :) Thank you, Bethany!!!

First off, there's no sitting fee like other places, saved us at least $25 right off the bat! Second, the photographer was really friendly and helped position us to get the best shot. He placed us in about 4 different ways and let us choose the one we liked best. I can't remember what package deal we ended up getting, but I do know it was cheaper than any of the other places I called. My family loved the quality of the pictures and the price, so we're planning on going back for newborn baby pics! Overall: friendly owners; cheap prices; great quality

Mark Trela and his wife Magda photographed our wedding August 2019 at Garfield Park Conservatory…read more When I say they exceeded every expectation of ours, I mean it. To be honest, the photographer was the only vendor I was picky about and as soon as I saw their wedding photography, I knew immediately that they had to be ours. I love the lighting and style of their work. They are incredibly talented and have an eye for what makes a good photo. I loved how their documentary style gave us a full story of that day. If that wasn't enough, Mark and Magda are incredibly kind and will put their whole heart into your day. They were present and attentive the whole time. When the events of the day were underway I didn't even notice them buzzing around snapping photos. They were also responsive before and after the wedding and worked well with our wedding planner when it came to scheduling, etc. We received the photos within a couple weeks of the wedding. They also helped us select photos for a leather-bound book (honestly, they did most of the selecting/formatting themselves which was wonderful - I'm a hands-off kind of bride). I've told Mark and Magda I want them to be our family photographer forever! I'm just so in love with their work and I don't want our wedding to be the last time we work with them. I can't recommend them enough and they'll be worth every single dollar you spend on them (something pretty uncommon in the wedding industry!!)

Mark & Magda photographed our June 2017 wedding and I could not have been happier with the entire…read moreexperience. From the very beginning, Mark was super easy to communicate with and he always responded promptly to the plethora of questions that I threw at him. At our initial meeting, he really took the time to understand what I was looking for in a photographer and what was important to me when photographing our wedding day. From looking through his blog, I knew immediately that his style of photography was exactly what we were looking for; candid, artsy, and a unique way of capturing light (this was huge for me). After we signed the contract with him, Mark was great about keeping in touch over the months leading up to the wedding to get all the specifics of the day and to check in to see if I had any questions. He always made himself available via email or phone if I needed advice for how to best set up our schedule for the day or even if I had silly freak out questions about worst-case weather scenarios (which he always put me at ease about). I really appreciated that Mark & Madga took a day ahead of time to scope out our church and reception venue. I told him it was very important that we incorporate the outdoors as much as we could, and he made sure to find some great potential locations for photos. On the day of, Mark and Magda were able to coordinate perfectly to ensure that both my husband and I would have pictures of us getting ready with our bridal parties. They are both so personable and fun that they quickly put me at ease and really blended into the background to get all of these amazing candid shots throughout the morning. The ceremony went flawlessly and they coordinated group family shots with ease. I think that my favorite thing about working with Mark and Magda was how enthusiastic they were about taking amazing photographs. They went out of their way to convince an owner of a private barn to let us take pictures on his property and I couldn't help but really get into the photo session as Mark was so excited about the location and the light filtering into the barn. The photos from our cocktail hour were such a pleasant surprise to look at after the wedding as I barely even noticed them mingling in the groups to snag some amazing candid photos of all our friends and family. Mark was able to coordinate the timing perfectly at our reception to sneak us outside right after dinner to get these amazing golden hour pictures on the beach. I highly highly recommend Mark Trela as a Wedding Photographer. He is a true professional, a super great guy to have around on your big day, and he creates absolutely stunning photographs.

If you are looking to hire a photographer for your event, Here are the things you need to know about Genevieve: 1. She is easy to work with. 2. Her Turnaround is days... DAYS... not weeks... Not months! 3. She understands light and how to adjust her cameras to fit any situation. My room had over 500 candles and that is really difficult to shoot 4. My clients LOVED her. 5.

I was cooperating with Pati and Tom (The Creators and Owners of GoodTime) on several occasions. First, I have invited them (some time ago) to do a sort of reportage of business luncheon and business workshop I was organizing. They were on time, with all ideas... I was feeling, that I have should give them so called free hand and the outcome was great. A lot of people wanted to know who we hired. It was something edgy, cause we wanted everything in black and white... It was absolutely great. Then I needed the professional photo shoot for my web page and marketing. It came out perfect. Pati is reading me like an open book and our verbal communication is not needed. Pati is intuitive and she knows what is the best at any given moment.. It was not a question when it comes to my Very Important Day AKA Wedding Day. I would recommend GoodTimePhotography, not only because I like Pati and Tom and we have established sort of friendship, but they are professional and they know what they are doing. My wedding day was challenging a little. (We wanted to have a metra ride instead of limo, and Pati with Tom captured every emotion and moment perfectly...even among the strangers such as passengers, tourists and visitors. I cant find the words to describe it. If you need someone who will be a part of a special day, and it doesn't matter if it will be business, casual or special, you should consider GoodTimePhotography, they will surprise you and give you the best....
