Ana Miyares at Ana Miyares Photography is a must have at your wedding. Our wedding was on September 15, 2012. It was a beautiful day and we were meeting Ana for portraits downtow...
n Chicago. The location she originally chose was occupied by another event. Ana quickly transitioned us to a new spectacular location. We fully trusted her and felt so at ease. Ana photographing our event felt so natural.
During the portraits she amazingly captured the chemistry between us, and our family. She even captured stunning images of one of our sons who chose not to cooperate on that day. Simply amazing!
Thorough the ceremony, Ana was capturing moments we will treasure forever. She was everywhere… taking photographs as well as video of the most important moments in our lives.
Our reception was so much fun. Ana was there to capture all the important, fun, and crazy moments. It was wonderful, anytime something great was happening she would materialize out of nowhere and record the moment.
We could not have picked a better photographer. Her style is spectacular, so laid back and effortless. She told our story and showcased our happiness as it unfolded. She made us feel at ease, and helped us make decisions to ensure nothing was missed and all was documented with grace ☺
Originally we decided not to purchase a photo album. After the wedding, we viewed all the images and watched the online compilation of Ana’s favorites. We loved the way she told our story. That changed our mind, and we decided to go with the photo album. We cannot wait to have Ana tell our story again, printed. We are certain it will be beautiful!!!
Everyone deserves to have Ana Miyares Photography capture the priceless moments! She is worth it and is amazing!
Thank you Ana!!!
Ana's assistant shot my wedding video. I LOVED working with her. She is fantastic and very creative.
My husband and I were married September 24, 2011 and we had the BEST experience with Ana! She was incredibly helpful through-out the process and was phenomenal on our wedding day....
It was important to us to capture the city with our wedding pictures and Ana delivered. The wedding pictures and compilation she created for us brought us to tears. We had such an amazing wedding and Ana made it that much more perfect.
My daughter got married on June 4th and Ana was our photographer and I cannot praise her enough. She was absolutely amazing. She literally guided us through every step of this mo...
st important day. From the moment she arrived, Heather depended on her and she came through with flying colors. I truly believe she was absolutely responsible for the whole day going so smoothly.
She took beautiful pictures from the beginning to the end...she worked tirelessly and never missed an opportunity for a great picture. Our whole family fell in love with her.
If you have the opportunity to have Ana photograph your wedding, you should grab it. She is much much more than a normal photographer.....her warmth, professionalism and charming personality coupled with an amazing talent for getting the right shot will make your wedding day perfect!
It was our true pleasure to work with Ana Miyares throughout our engagement and wedding experience. From the minute we met with Ana, she was professional, relatable, reliable and ...
warm to us both as well as our families. Our engagement shoot (near the lake in November 2009) turned out beautifully. She made the experience fun and really got to know us both -- which was great come wedding time.
Prior to our wedding (May 2010), Ana went to visit the venue and requested detailed information on specific shots we wanted to capture. This is the type of professional Ana is-- going above and beyond to ensure perfection.
Our getting ready, portraits, ceremony and party photos all turned out incredible. She got all of the shots we had requested without being 'in our face.' The quality of what we got back was incredible. We were both dreading having a photographer setup cheezy, posed shots of our guests throughout the evening. However, Ana does the exact opposite: captures the moment. Our guests loved her, our families thought she was tremendous and we were simply blown away.
Not only is Ana a talented photogrpaher, but she is an incredible person. She is warm and truly does care about making your wedding day perfect. Looking back, both of us were so happy to have Ana involved- it would not have been the same without her. She is a professional in every sense of the word and is a must have at your wedding. Book her now!!!!!
And, as a final peice of advice, it is totally worth buying the digital prints of all of the images she takes. The quality is outstanding!
My husband and I could not be happier that we chose Ana as our photographer for our May wedding in Chicago. She was amazing. I knew she was going to be great from our first meeti...
ng with her-she asked great questions and really took the time to understand what we wanted and worked with us on price. She was thoughtful enough to go to the venue a couple days before the wedding to get ideas of places where we may want to take photos. She was amazing on our wedding day-she really helped me keep it together, was organized and managed to keep the wedding party together as well. She did a great job taking pictures of our guests which we requested and made everyone feel very comfortable. She was always around but was never annoying. We were married 8 months ago and I still cannot stop looking at our pictures-they are spectacular and we have received so many compliments from friends and family. If you cant tell from this review, I am huge fan and if you have the chance, I would book her right away.
Ana was the photographer for our wedding over the summer and we couldn't be happier with how our photos turned out! She was absolutely wonderful to work with throughout the entire ...
process. She is very warm and personable and put everyone at ease. Her experience with weddings helped the day run very smoothly - she knew what to expect when and helped keep the day very stress free for my new husband and me.
As for her talent, she had a way of making even the posed portraits look natural. The photos we received tell the story of our wedding beautifully - we've received so many comments from people who were there and from those who couldn't make it that they could relive or experience the wedding just by looking at the photos. She and her assistant captured the emotions of the day as well as the events all the way through.
I highly recommend Ana, and have already recommended her to family and friends!
Our family will be indebted to Ana Miyares Photography forever. Ana and her assistant captured my son's wedding day from beginning to end with such passion, love and creativity. T...
here wasn't a dry eye in the bunch after we say the slide show that she put together for us after the wedding. Friends and family that were unable to attend the wedding have written back and mentioned how every picture told a story of the evening. They could feel the tenderness and love in the evening by just looking at the slide show. Ana and her assistant were every where, they worked non-stop to capture candid expressions of laughter and joy of so many of the family members and guests.
Ana's portraits turned out to be such works of art and creativity. My son was married in Chicago, at Old St. Pat's Church and the reception was held at the Sears Tower (now called the Willis Tower). Ana was able to capture the city as a backdrop to the portraits so beautifully. The portraits of the bride, groom and family out and about in the City are timeless, stunning and classic.
Ana is such a delightful, charming and warm person that she was able to get everyone to relax and pose as she instructed so smoothly and effortlessly. There is nothing worse than a photographer that can't really connect to people, who simply take pictures as a means to an end. Ana was the complete opposite of that. Ana made it a point to connect with everyone and I cannot count the number of people who commented after the wedding how wonderful the photographer was. Her presence felt as if she was part of the family, not some outsider hired to take wedding pictures.
Words cannot express our gratitude to Ana. She is simply the best. We cannot wait for our next family wedding, we will fly her where ever we go, as we can't imagine using any other photographer.
