We would definitely recommend Joe to anyone seeking a professional, reliable, high quality photographer.

He never made us feel like he was in a hurry and kept suggesting we move to different locations so that he could take shots with different angles and backgrounds. I almost started to feel bad during the shoot - since he was so kind and eager for the perfect shot I almost had to remind him that our time was up! Our pictures are truly works of art and I can't wait to hang them up around the house. What a local gem. Thank you Mark!

From the start, working with her was extremely professional. She was very timely with her email responses and was even able to fit us in on short notice. Her studio is attached to her home, and has a ton of props and outfits for newborns. She was so great with our newborn, she was able to soothe him and keep him calm between the outfit changes. Her patience was unbelievable! She accommodated all our requests for poses and props, with no hesitation. I will recommend H. Lane photography to all my friends and family.

Jonathan & I were planning our wedding from out of state, and Esenam was very timely and worked with our BUSY schedule (we're both residents). My husband and I met with Esenam and his family for lunch to talk about the wedding/contract. Everyone loved our engagement pictures and we can't wait to see the finished wedding pictures. Esenam has an artistic eye and beautifully captures each moment. Picking Esenam to capture the memories of our wedding day is probably one of the best decisions we made. I would highly recommend Esenam to anyone who wants BEAUTIFUL wedding pictures. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Esenam!

Ese was our photographer for our big day, and he was wonderful! He was very creative, and had…read morenumerous suggestions for where we could take beautiful outdoor shots (we chose the Japanese Gardens in Geneva, IL which were incredibly beautiful). He set up a beautiful and emotional first look for us there as well. I loved that he personalized my package for what I was looking for (I had a breakfast in the morning I was hoping he could photograph- and he said no problem), and that he got all of the big moments in our day- from getting ready until the very end- he literally traveled around with us all day. My favorite part was that we walked from the church to the reception hall and he had someone in my family move his car over so he could walk with us and photograph our private moments together. Ese is friendly and fun, and my bridal party enjoyed him throughout the entire day. He definitely shoots in the photo journalistic style, so there will not be a lot of time spent on "group shots" unless you specifically ask. Ese is a bit pricey, but his price included the day- I never felt like he was going to say, "your eight hours are up, I'm leaving even though there are still big things to happen" which is different than many photographers I've seen at events. Photographer is one of the most important wedding day decisions and I was so pleased with our choice. Definitely check out his site- you will not be disappointed.
