We could not be happier with our experience working with Elite Photo! We LOVE our photos and will cherish them for our whole lives. Missy is fantastic at her craft and is also just...
such a joy to work with, which is so incredibly important when it comes to your wedding day. You spend the entire day with your wedding photographers and Missy and Maggie were wonderful to be around. They kept us on track and on schedule yet also stood back and didn't interfere too much or make anything feel rushed. They did it in such a calm, cool, and collected way that put me at ease. They really blended in and captured what was transpiring without over-orchestrating anything. Somehow they managed to capture all the photos we wanted and every single little detail about our day - things that I didn't even get to see or notice because there was so much going on! We had a very small wedding due to COVID and some of our family were keeping a lot of distance, including my parents and sister. Missy was able to accommodate this and come up with creative ways to get them in photos without getting too close to each other. She was also just very helpful, positive, and encouraging throughout the day. Our photos have such an authentic and artistic feel to them - they are not just snapshots, they clearly took care to frame their shots beautifully and thoughtfully so our photos are true keepsakes that I am excited to put on our walls! Thank you, Missy and Maggie!!!
Words cannot describe how impressed we were with Missy! From the moment we met her, we could instantly tell she displayed professionalism and a keen sense of artistic flair all for...
an affordable price! Her and her team was on top of every little detail the day of the wedding. Highly highly recommend Missy! Five stars all around!
Elite Photo is THE place to go when looking for a wedding/engagement photographer. Missy is professional, timely, personable, and friendly throughout the whole process. Missy helpe...
d us with every step in navigating what we wanted out of our engagement and wedding photos to help our vision come to life. She was flexible and always got back to me right away. Brides: your photographer is a key player on your wedding day. Not just for the pictures, but to help you stay on time and coordinate people on your wedding day. My whole bridal party raved about Missy and her assistant, Maggie. Not only did they take our photos (of course), but they went above and beyond. They helped get our groomsmen ready, carried around my "emergency bag" full of makeup, made sure we had water (and a cocktail) at all points of the day, and also offered such positive words throughout our wedding day. I cannot thank Missy and her team enough for delivering such beautiful and stunning pictures, but also for being just a great friend throughout this whole wedding process. Please consider booking her- you will be glad you did!
Missy and her team at Elite Photography are absolutely amazing. We had the pleasure of first working with Missy for our engagement session on a very hot and humid day in 2018, but ...
she didn't let the weather stop her. Since then, we knew we were in great hands. Our engagement photos are beautiful, we love every single one of them! Missy was able to take two people who do not feel photogenic (and their two dogs) and truly capture who we are and this very exciting chapter of our lives.
The day of our wedding, Missy was working non stop, making sure every detail and every moment was captured. We absolutely cannot wait to see our photos and highly highly HIGHLY recommend working with Missy and Elite Photography.
Missy was so amazing throughout the whole wedding experience! She was so easy to contact whenever we had any questions and listened to all of our ideas. Also, she was super helpful...
with recommendations since she has seen so many weddings and is such a positive person!

le during the pictures. Missy and her team were there for our wedding and were very accommodating. I got many compliments on them from my bridesmaids. We changed the times a few times and it was no issue for Missy. She is always responsive and will answer any questions you have. The pictures turned out amazing too, there was not one that we didn't like! I would definitely recommend Elite Photo.
We went with Elite Photo for our wedding in September 2018 at White Eagle Golf Club in Naperville. We absolutely loved Missy and her team for not just the wedding photos but the en...
gagement photos as well. Missy and her team were very accommodating as we moved everything up earlier than what was planned for the wedding. Missy is great and easy to work with, she will answer all your questions day or night. Missy has a great eye and set up some amazing shots.
We absolutely loved working with Elite Photography for our recent wedding! Missy is the best- super professional and knowledgeable, but also fun, upbeat, and a calming presence. ...
She was very flexible and worked with us to ensure we had all of the photos we wanted of our wedding day, despite the fact that we had a tight timeline that day. From the beginning, she was also quick to communicate with me regarding any questions I had, including a lengthy phone conversation several months before the wedding to ensure that we could make our timeline work. Missy is awesome and we received many compliments about her work from our wedding guests as well!

WE LOVE MISSY! We were so happy to have found Missy to capture our 8/25/17 wedding! She is so talented at what she does and by the end of the process she feels like family. We were...
blown away at every single image sent to us. Krystal was so down to earth and they work so well together! Not only is Missy talented at capturing beautiful images, she is also amazing at coordinating how the big day will go. She put together a whole timeline for us which we tried to do by ourselves, but nothing added up. She has shot so many weddings that she knows almost every detail how the day is going to go down to the minute. We are so unbelievably happy with everything she has provided for us. Thank you, thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!

ment photos! They turned out great and we received tons of compliments on the pictures from friends and family. Missy was very creative with the pictures and we loved how professional she was! Maggie came to help Missy on our wedding day as well and she was a pleasure to work with as well! We have nothing but great things to say about the both of them! She always was quick to respond to any of my questions through email. Missy also gave us advice and guidance on the day of timeline through our wedding consultation on the phone. I hope we can hire her again in the future! I highly recommend Missy and Maggie for your upcoming wedding! Very happy we went with Missy and her team!

The first time we met with Missy, I was confident that she would be a great wedding photographer. It was clear that she is experienced and organized. She took the time to get to know us and find out what our vision was for our big day. She was also very easy to get in touch with a communicate with as we planned both the engagement shoot and for the wedding day. She was great at helping me decide which locations would be best and always had great advice.
We loved our engagement pictures! Missy was great at capturing our personalities and making it a fun and easy shoot. When our wedding day came, I was even more thankful that we chose Missy. We had a huge bridal party, 10 on each side. Missy handled it like a champ. She was awesome at directing the big group, while letting everyone have their fun. Missy captured the day so beautifully. She made ordinary backgrounds look stunning. She captured the feeling of every moment so well. Looking back on my wedding pictures is such a fun experience. I got so many compliments on them!
I cannot recommend Missy enough! If beautiful wedding photos are a priority for you, Missy is the photographer for you.

Elite Photography is THE BEST!!!! I could not have imagined a better photographer to have than Missy, she was so easy and wonderful to work with. She took the time to meet multiple...
times with us to be able to know what WE wanted for our wedding. She had great packages and she was THE ONLY photographer that we could find who had everything that we wanted. She had no time limit (so we didn't have to pay extra per hour rates) and she included an extra photographer at no extra cost.
Missy was seriously the best, and I would recommend her to anyone and everyone! She exceeded our expectations and the pictures are BEAUTIFUL!! We couldn't be happier.
