Demitra,
It's clients like you and Michael that keep us doing what we love best. You were both such a pleasure to work with. We appreciate your trust in us to continue photographing you and your family in the future.
Peter and Kevin were incredible to work with from our very first meeting. They were able to document and capture the true love my now husband and I have for each other, and the love we felt towards all our guests that joined us.
Their staff w...
as attentive and creative. I am confident they were able to capture every integral moment, and they did so in such a way where it didn't feel intrusive or distracting. Truly, they were a joy to party with!
They listened to what we wanted and offered ideas that we had yet to consider. Their professionalism, energy, and confidence allowed for a seamless and perfect day. We can't wait to see our finished products!

Dena,
You and Justin were an absolute pleasure to work for. Both your families & friends treated us as family and we truly appreciated that. Thank you again for trusting Furla to capture your special day!
My finance's sisters used Furla Photography & Video for their weddings and both their photos and videos turned out amazing! So we knew we had to use them for our wedding.
So far we've had an engagement shoot with them and we loved how the pict...
ures turned out. We definitely recommend them! Peter was so nice and great to work with. He went above and beyond to make sure we got the perfect pictures for our save the dates. He recommended amazing spots for our pictures and made the entire process simple. The turn around time for receiving the pictures was so quick and they were beautifully edited with easy access to them. The pictures he took turned out amazing and we can't wait to see what our wedding pictures and video will look like!

Amber, you and Joe were amazing to work with! It just goes to show creative photography can be fun. Thank you for your kind words and let's have more fun at your wedding,
Peter
I cant recommend the Furla team enough. Looking back on my wedding photos from 11 years ago, they captured the event just as I remember it. More importantly, my images were lost during some construction- when I contacted Peter with my concern, ...
he quickly pulled up my account and send me an upload the same day. You can imagine my relief and gratitude. Aside the perfectly captured event, we have restored priceless photos of family who is no longer around. Their comprehensive excellence is worth far more than 5 stars.

Hi Joanna,
Thank you for your kind words. We love what we do and it's clients like you that make it all worth while.
Thank you!
Furla Photography and Video is absolutely amazing. Kevin and Peter worked extremely hard to get every shot I wanted for my wedding. They were both extremely responsive to phone calls and emails. During dinner they noticed the beautiful sunse...
t outside and pulled my husband and I to take stunning pictures. Our wedding video was ready a few days after the wedding. It was wonderful to be able to go back and relive the day. The video is beautiful with shots of the boys and girls getting ready, the first look, ceremony, speeches, and dancing at the reception. We had Furla take our engagement pictures as well and those turned out amazing. Furla does everything they can to work with you and ensure you get exactly what you want. I highly recommend them!

I cannot recommend Furla Photography more. They made our wedding day enjoyable, fun, and relaxed and our pictures are incredible. They knew exactly what angles and moments to capture-and did everything in perfect time, allowing us to still enjo...
y our cocktail hour, and all other moments of the wedding. Peter and his wife Demetra were so easy and fun to work with from start to finish, and made our day so special. We got our pictures back so fast-and it has been so fun reliving our day through our gorgeous photos. The only problem we have now is picking what pictures we want framed-because we love all of them so much!

Brittany, you and Stephen are such an amazing couple. Thank you for allowing us to capture your wedding memories.
I may be biased, but I would argue that Furla Photography is the best in the Chicagoland area! My Fiancé and I worked with Peter for our engagement pictures, which turned out beyond our expectations. Peter is extremely talented and can make it ...
look as if you are the only individuals in a crowded Chicago scene. In addition to his professional, timely, attentive and accommodating traits, he makes you feel completely calm and comfortable in his presence while photographing. I look forward to Furla Photography capturing the most important day of my life and could not imagine any one else for the job! I give my highest recommendation for Furla Photography in capturing any occasion!

e are so glad we chose Furla Photography. He really is the best photographer!
Awesome job, they were in control and had a vision and goal of what they wanted. Talked a lot and initial consultation was very informative.
My wife and I stumbled upon Furla by accident, while we were actually searching for wedding rings at Waukegan. And boy were we glad to find them! Peter and his wife were terrific, made us feel right at home and comfortable. He gave us a clear r...
undown of all the packages and prices to suit our needs and budget. He even gave us several discount options. It has a personal touch being a family-owned business. You really feel you're dealing with genuine people and not a 'company'.
We were fortunate to have Bart Galbas as our photographer. He had just had one of his photos featured on the front page of ChicagoStyle Weddings magazine. Two thumbs up for Bart! He chose a great spot in a suburban park for our engagement shoot (it was a great choice because it was beautiful and so private, and there were few people walking around to spoil the background). He's fun, calm and jokes around to make you feel at ease. He also has a knack of making everyone comfortable and pose well in a group shot, even the kids. The pictures that we got looked very professional. Clear and crisp! He was flexible about us zooming to another location to take more photographs in between the wedding and reception, and didn't complain despite the drizzle. We'll be receiving our video in a couple of months, looking forward to that one as well.
All in all, we're happy to have chosen Furla! :)
~Jeremiah and Tina
Bart and John did a beautiful job. Our wedding pictures are stunning. They were so fun and easy to work with. I highly recommend them to anyone!
Photographer was on-time for event. Very personable. Seemed to get all the shots we wanted. Was very flexible. Rating based on not having seen final product yet.
Disclaimer: I used to work as an editor at Furla Video. However, this only makes me MORE aware of their great quality!
I was lucky enought to have Chris Chibucos (head of Furla Video) as my videographer. Chris is an amazing shooter with years...
and years of experience in Wedding videography. He has won numerous awards from WEVA and speaks at conferences for them and Adobe.
Furla's quality is top-notch. They have the best equipment and that shows through in amazing looking video. This is NOT a $500 video, but there are reasons for that. Video is not a priority for some at their wedding, and I understand that...but if you want it, pay for a good one, or else have your "uncle jack" videotape the wedding.
I am so happy that Furla was able to do my wedding!!!
I can't say enough about Furla! The minute we met with them we were hooked! Our photos and video, bar far and away are the best we have seen. They were easy to work with, friendly, and very customer service oriented.
I never knew where he was, he was not obtrusive. The editor is very creative and was excietde to work with us. They made a trailer style love story for us that we showed at the reception that surprised everyone.
Creative video and short video (video recap);Need to be very specific about which parts of day you want included on video!
