Anna Zajac Weddings

t and wedding photos a breeze! What I appreciate about Anna is her ability to guide you into creating beautiful moments as well as capturing candid moments as they arise. She is also queer-friendly and had great suggestions for how my wife and I could pose in pictures that uniquely captured our essence as a couple. We do not have our album yet from our big day, but I so look forward to viewing the magic that Anna captured for us throughout the day. Anna has such a warm and inviting soul. She instantly puts you at ease. I cannot recommend Anna enough as a photographer if you're getting married in the Chicagoland area. Wishing you all the best in the future, Anna!

e Chicago area. With a 6 month timeline I didn't think I'd be able to book her but got SO lucky there was a cancellation and she happened to be available. She is so kind, calm, professional and ridiculously talented. She is very responsive via email, has a very thoughtful and *inclusive* wedding photo info sheet she has couples fill out and she even went above and beyond bringing on a second local photographer to ensure that our whole day was captured beautifully. Every one of my bridesmaids commented on how kind, sweet, and calm she was which radiated throughout the room as we got ready. She graciously accommodated us including our dog in the ceremony (dogs aren't the easiest to capture!) and she even included some INCREDIBLE family photos of the three of us in our preview which we already received only a couple weeks after the wedding. It made us SO excited to see the full gallery later on. She was also so sweet and understanding when my husband asked to cut our bridal party portrait time short before we even took couples photos because I was FREEZING (and starving from all the adrenaline/nerves before the ceremony). She immediately pivoted, found a great spot for us to "hide" to enjoy some treats, drinks (which she and her other photographer BROUGHT to us!) and a little alone time. This made our couple portraits WAY better than they would have been if we had "pushed through" after our bridal party photos because we had a chance to laugh, eat, and enjoy some peace and quiet away from the chaos which recharged us perfectly for our couples session. This speaks to Anna's professionalism and talent because she knows when and how to capture your day perfectly. I told her I cared very little about a shot list and wanted her to focus on the candid moments which are my favorite and I can already tell she did this perfectly (as I knew she would since you can tell from her previous work). And a note on budget/pricing: Anna's prices are absolutely spot on due to the value, volume, and also zero hidden costs associated. You own the photos out right when you receive them. It also INCLUDES her travel which is huge! Photos are not an area I would recommend cutting costs; you absolutely get what you pay for with Anna and then some! She is simply the best in the biz! I also have to mention the local photographer she brought on as a second shooter, Cody Mann, was a fantastic addition and shows how thorough she is in vetting the folks she works with. Thank you so much for capturing our day perfectly, Anna! We can't wait to see our gallery in due time!

ves at ease with her personality, her portfolio, and really making my husband and I feel like we were part of her team. I can not recommend her enough! Her style it’s so organic and natural. We LOVED the way our photos turned out, especially the intimate and candid shots she got of our guests and venue details.

’s warmth, friendliness, and candor is apparent. She takes the time to make sure that she understands exactly who her clients are, what their love story is, and what their needs may be before diving into her services. We could tell that she truly cares about each of the weddings and couples that she shoots. While Anna’s technical photography skills are obviously outstanding when you view her portfolio, she very much shines with the softer skills a photographer would need to draw out the best from her subjects. We hired her because we thought she would get our friends, family, and I to laugh, be ourselves, and bring out the best from us and she did not disappoint. Shooting with her could not be more natural or less fun. Highly recommend choosing Anna for your wedding!
