CHICAGO WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER THAT CAPTURES TIMELESS MOMENTS

Work together
Your wedding day is a celebration of love, joy, and togetherness. To capture and preserve these fleeting moments, you need a skilled and experienced Chicago wedding photographer who can create authentic, timeless, and captivating images.
At Winterlyn Photography, we have a keen eye for detail and a deep passion for storytelling through photography. We understand the significance of every moment and strive to capture the emotions and beauty of your special day.
Our couples desire wedding photography that captures every big moment and the little ones too. Timeless portraits are a must, but precious candid moments are important too: the Flower Girl fiddling with her dress, the Father of the Bride dabbing his eyes during the ceremony, the way the Groom's jaw drops when he sees his Bride for the first time. I’ll capture it all for you!
The Wedding Details
One of the best ways to make your wedding memories last is by ordering an album. These high quality professionally designed albums come in a variety of linen & leather colors. These aren’t the same albums your parents wedding photos came in. They’re modern, lay perfectly flat and look incredible on coffee tables.
All albums must be prepaid before design begins. Albums typically take between 4 to 6 weeks to complete and include two rounds of revision. Albums may be ordered anytime before or after the wedding day.
Albums
It takes time for most couples to warm up to being photographed and understand how we work. Timelines can be pretty tight on weddings days and 30 minutes may be all we have for portraits - which is why we’ve found that wedding day portraits turn out so much better when couples do engagement sessions ahead of time.
Sessions also allow you to showcase your personalities in a more casual setting that is significant to the two of you (and even include pets!) While they’re great for save-the-dates, we’ve taken engagement photos anywhere from 18 months in advance to a few days before the wedding.
