Wow, I gotta say, this was the best money spent for my wedding. My husband and I were first drawn to Gilbert's amazing photos on his website, and after meeting with multiple photographers, it was clear Gilbert was by far and away the best choice. His photos are to die for, but what really made our experience was his energy and personality, and his wonderful team. We worked with Gilbert, Corinna, Grace and Sara, the videographer, and I can't wait for the next event so I can hire them again.
We first took engagement photos with Gilbert and Grace, and they made us feel like rockstars-the shoot was comfortable and breezy, and Gilbert has such an eye for beautiful landscapes and elegant, effective moments. He also made it easy for our natural playfulness to shine, and we felt so comfortable on camera. And the photos.were.stunning. We got so many compliments on them. This was a great experience that led us to be confident that our wedding would also be comfortable and easy. (and it was!)
Gilbert went above and beyond helping us figure out the best wedding timeline, and even researched our family farm (the venue!) so he could come prepared on the wedding day. He was very knowledgeable about the industry but also was flexible and easily able to help us tailor a wedding that was very uniquely ours. He was a prompt responder and got answers to our questions thoroughly and quickly.
The whole team was wonderful on the day of. Capturing special moments while laughing and joking and also keeping us on track. (We were on time for the entire wedding, wow!) It was important to me that our photographers felt like part of the wedding instead of just watching from the outside, and I really felt like that was achieved.
All in all, Gilbert and his crew were just plain fun to be around. They made us feel good and calm during an event that has such high stakes, and because we felt comfortable, my husband and I were able to have authentic, easy, romantic moments together on the best day of our lives.
Please hire him. You can't go wrong, and you won't regret it.
Gilbert and his team at Greyes Photography did a fantastic job capturing our special day.
From the initial meeting to the engagement photo session, to the build-up and execution of our big day, we had an exceptional experience working with Gilbert. He and his team were professional, friendly, and punctual. They also offered great communication in terms of planning shooting locations and creating shot lists.
Greyes also offers packages that encapsulate your entire day and not just a set time limit. Plus, the photo quality is outstanding, and affordable as well. 10/10 we recommend Gilbert and Greyes Photography to anyone looking for professional, skilled photographers to shoot their big day.
This review has been a long time coming. We used GReyes Photography for our wedding in 2023. I’ve always known I wanted to use their services after seeing their photos on social media. It was so worth it. We are so happy with our photos — and the entire process from start (booking) to finish (receiving our photos timely). I highly recommend their services!
Any questions?
Gilbert and his wife Nessli were fantastic. They showed up on time, they clearly knew what they were doing, and they were easy to work with. But moreover, they were really willing to go the extra mile. As I told Gilbert at the end of the night, dealing with the stress of the wedding day and taking great photos is not easy, but it's also "the job". However... running around in 90 degree heat, helping us carry water and supplies around to keep us hydrated, and being eaten alive by mosquitos for the perfect forest photo is truly going above and beyond.
We are so happy we chose Gilbert as our photographer. Him and his team were WONDERFUL! We did our save the date photoshoot with him as well which included our son and those pictures turned out just beautiful. Everything was so easy casual and comfortable with him and his team and this coming from a couple who wanted the bare minimum of pictures LOL. Gilbert and his team listened to exactly what we wanted and we truly appreciated that and are grateful! Highly recommend Gilbert and his team!
Me and my wife were completely blown away by Gil and his team. He has a knack for keeping things fun and getting great smiles/poses for the photos. We recently received our pictures from the wedding and we got to completely relive the day. We appreciated it so much. Gil has a great attention to detail and is very aware of how his surrounding can be best utilized for unique photos. If you are on the fence about Gil, do yourself a favor and just hire him. He is worth every penny.
Gilbert was very professional and had plenty of great ideas for photos. We were able to get every photo would could have hoped for. We are extremely happy with Gilbert and his team. I highly recommend them.
Gilbert and his team photographed our wedding at the Gardens of Woodstock on 9/15/23. We were so appreciative of their professionalism throughout the entire day and their patience putting up with our loud, crazy family! The pictures turned out absolutely STUNNING and we were blown away by how creative they were by taking advantage of the landscape around the venue including the trees, plants, reflections in the pond and reflection in mirrors. We will be admiring our pictures for years to come and highly recommend them for anyone wanting truly magical photos of their big day. We can't thank you enough!
Matt and I couldn't have asked for a better photographer for our wedding. Gilbert and his team captured the entire day perfectly, and the photos are to die for.
My brother and SIL hired Greyes for their wedding back in 2018, and their photos turned out so beautiful we didn't even look at any other photographers when we got engaged. Our engagement photos were beautiful, and their team was a pleasure to work with. We felt so comfortable behind the camera both then and on our big day; the photos clearly show that. Gilbert is a true professional and artist, and we will cherish these photos forever. Thank you for making our day magical! ABSOLUTELY recommend!
We worked with Gilbert for our wedding in May and couldn't have asked for a better experience. He was professional, easy to get along with, and very organized. He was very detailed oriented with our photos which we appreciated. He and his 2nd shooter were very fun and easy to work. I would highly recommend Greyes Photography for your wedding!
Hiring Gilbert was one of the best and most important decisions we made for our wedding. We loved working with him and his team for both our engagement shoot and wedding day. He was flexible, easy to work with and always responded quickly whenever we had any questions. He was very knowledgable and helpful when discussing timeline, photo locations and discussing potential shots we wanted on our special day. Most importantly, his photos are stunning. He had great vision and captured every moment perfectly. Our family and friends also enjoyed working with him and gave us endless compliments about how great the photos were. I highly recommend him and am glad we were lucky enough to book him for our wedding!
I can't recommend Gilbert enough! We had him for our engagement photos and wedding. He communicates, is timely, organized, makes you feel comfortable/ natural in your poses, up for any challenge, and takes beautiful pictures. Our engagement photoshoot was pretty cloudy, but Gilbert still managed to make our pictures stunning. People still talk to us about them. I can't wait to see our wedding photos. We feel incredibly lucky that he was able to capture the most important day of our lives. Thank you Gilbert and your team!!
We hired Gilbert for our engagement photos and our wedding photos. Needless to say, he has been amazing! Our engagement session was in November, 2022 and our wedding was in January, 2023. We have received our engagement photos back and love all of them. Gilbert has an eye for what he’s doing and explains the poses well. I just had my wedding two days ago and he was great! His assistance was also amazing and super helpful! We cannot wait to receive those photos back but I also know that they will be stunning.
I worked with Gilbert for my wedding in May 2022 and had a fantastic experience. I knew from the beginning that Gilbert was the photographer I wanted to work with. He was responsive to my inquiries and straightforward. His wedding packages were affordable and covered the timeframe that I actually needed without extra fees (I did a church wedding and needed more time than many photographer packages offer). Gilbert and his team took several stunning photos, was on time on the wedding day and fun to work with. I was very happy with how everything turned out and would highly recommend to anyone having a wedding in the Chicagoland area. Thank you Gilbert!
Amazing photographers! The photos are everything we could have imagined. We loved the style and artistic aesthetic. We used Greyes for our engagement and wedding photos. They were with us the entire wedding day and captured every special moment. Highly responsive and great communication throughout the whole process. We chose not to hire a videographer and still feel like absolutely every part of the day was captured. Hard to pick our favorite photos for sure.
I hired Gilbert for my own wedding after he photographed one of my best friends weddings that I was a bridesmaid in. Both experiences were fantastic working with him. I’ve been in a lot of weddings and Gilbert’s talent and professionalism is above and beyond. He gives very good direction, has an eye for detail, and was so friendly, accommodating, and professional throughout the whole experience. The photos turned out absolutely stunning. My guests were also raving about how he and his assistant somehow seemed to be everywhere and nowhere at the same time- In other words, they were exactly where they needed to be to get incredible photos without ever distracting from what was going on during our ceremony or reception. 10/10 recommend.
I cannot begin to thank Gilbert for everything he has done for my husband and I. We are beyond happy we booked Greyes photography for our wedding. First off our engagement session we had last year was amazing! After we got the photos back we knew we couldn’t wait to see how our wedding photos turned out. We just got our wedding photos last week and I am i still in awe. Gilbert exceeded my expectations and me and my husband couldn’t be happier with them. They say a picture is worth 1000 words but you can clearly see by our photos how amazing of a photographer Gilbert and his team are. Not only are the photos amazing but he is so fun to work with. He made both our engagement photos and our wedding day so easy. I would recommend Gilbert to anyone who is for amazing photos for their wedding. If I could give this review 10 stars I would.
Being a wedding photographer myself I knew I wanted amazing photography. I had my eye on Greyes Photography for a few years actually. He was incredibly easy to talk to and made sure everything went smoothly on the wedding day. His attention to detail and art of making the images in a more editorial tone is what drew me to him. He also really knows how to use all kinds of light, natural light, flash, and video lights. He made some amazingly creative images that I will treasure forever. Turn around time was prompt and his communication was always on point! I Am so happy with my choice and can’t stop looking at my imagesetters . He created images that will adorn the walls of our home for a lifetime!
GReyes photography was amazing. Very receptive, flexible, kind, and professional. They kept to our shot list we provided and the photo return was so quick! I love ALL my photos and hold them all dear to my heart. Gilbert is super fun to shoot with and creative! He used the most of his time on sight and created a wholesome picture of my wedding day. Thank you.
My husband and I were one of Gilbert's pandemic couples (we booked him in 2019), and for two years he and his team were responsive, supportive, and reliable. We had to change our wedding plans THREE times, and each time Gilbert said yes to the new plan and made it happen. The pictures turned out wonderful, and he used every minute to capture what he could of our day. We ended up separating our ceremony and reception, and Gilbert was kind enough to offer us a more than reasonable rate to cover our reception and ended up staying longer than what was agreed upon so he could capture what was most important to us. He got us our pictures back way before anticipated as well. Gilbert and his team are so kind, and I am so grateful that we didn't have to stress about who would capture our day(s) so we could look back and remember the crazy ride of getting married during the pandemic. Thank you so much!
Gilbert and his team were INCREDIBLE for our engagement and wedding photos. He was extremely reliable and responsive, talked us through the plan of events for the evening and helped us stay on track, gave helpful feedback for posing, thought of many creative places to take pictures (including finding a spot with wonderful lighting in our very basic looking hotel), and blended seamlessly throughout the party. We had our initial engagement photos with Gilbert pre-covid, and Gilbert worked with us as we postponed our wedding during covid.
I cannot recommend GReyes photography enough! Everything was wonderful!
Wow! Gilbert and Maui were absolutely fantastic for our Sept. 21 Wedding! Our pictures turned out exactly how we imagined and we received so many compliments on them! Gilbert was so attentive, detailed, and relaxed which made the entire process very easy. He tells you how to pose so you look your absolute best! He also keeps you on track (time wise) so you get everything / everyone in the pictures. We definitely recommend for all your photography needs!!
Gilbert & his team were beyond amazing! They kept the atmosphere fun throughout the entire day and were so creative in the way they went about their shoot. He also provided us with different suggestions throughout the planning process and made sure we had all bases covered (i.e. rain back up plans), which were things we were not necessarily thinking about out of the gate. We can't wait to see how all the pictures turn out! Would highly recommend!
We were supposes to get married in july 2020 and had to postpone to july 2021. Gilbert was amazing to work with during the whole process of having to postpone.
You can tell Gilbert is a professional, he was very detailed and was amazing at giving us privacy during the first look and our couple photos.
He made us feel comfortable and the photos turned out amazing and are worth the wait.
Gilbert is honestly the best. Organized, punctual, goes above and beyond and delivers amazing photos. Every photo is better than the next one. He was one of my favorite vendors of the wedding.
Gilbert, a million thanks for capturing these moments that we will cherish forever!
Gilbert was absolutely awesome. We just received our photos and we’re stunned at how well they came out! We highly recommend hiring him for your big day.
We hadn’t met him before our wedding day but things went so smoothly that you’d think we had met before. His suggestions for locations, poses, and etc were excellent. He captured the essence of the day but also got a ton of cool, dramatic shots. The time available for our photoshoot was cut down by 1h30 by unexpected delays so we missed out on one location, but you’d never know that by looking at the pics. Hire him!
Gilbert and his team are amazing!! From the very start he was easy to talk to and understanding. He even helped make our day of timeline and was extremely flexible as we planned during the pandemic. Our engagement photos and wedding photos are perfect! Our friends and family have given us multiple compliments of how they are the most beautiful wedding photos they’ve ever seen. The assistants he brought to the engagement session and wedding were both incredibly talented. My bridesmaids felt comfortable and loved working with him. His services and price cannot be beat. Gilbert is a true professional and I highly recommend him.
We loved working with Gilbert for our wedding in September 2018! Gilbert's work is beautiful- our wedding photos are completely gorgeous. Gilbert is very professional and easy to work with, he listened to our requests and responded quickly. Gilbert is very talented- he has an artistic eye and knows how to frame and shot and work with many people in varying environments. Highly recommend!
I could not be happier with Gilbert and his team at Greyes... they were responsive and professional before i met them and once I met them I liked them even more. As is common everything was a hot mess and a blur the morning of my wedding and Gilbert handled it all with ease and wisdom. Every photo was better than the last and I did not make it easy on him! I can’t thank him enough for capturing the moments we wanted and the moments we didn’t even know we wanted until we saw the prints. I would book Greyes Photography a million times over. He showed up ready to go with ideas and if something wasn’t working he was quick to switch gears and wasted no time wrangling the massive bridal party into the best photos.
I am so happy that I went with Greyes photography for my Feb 2020 wedding, I am so impressed with the photos he took for us! There is so much detail in all the shots and some literally took my breath away. Gilbert was so helpful throughout the process, helping to plan the timeline for getting ready photos, etc and was great about lining up shots artistically. I love all the dramatic shots and will enjoy looking back at them for a lifetime.
After getting engaged, my now husband and I were SO overwhelmed on where to begin with wedding planning. We are SO SO happy we picked Greyes Photography for our wedding on 12.28.19. From the initial meeting with Gilbert, constant communication to the actual wedding day- everything was flawless. Gilbert is nice, professional & knowledgeable of his craft. We recently received our pictures and they are AMAZING to say the least, I find myself looking at them constantly. It's going to be very difficulty to decide which pictures to choose for our Wedding Album (included in our package). Thanks so much for the amazing and beautiful pictures-- we would do it all over again with you as our #1 choice. HIGHLY recommend, the BEST out there.
Gilbert and his team are amazing hands down!! He was a pleasure to work with from the first time meeting with him, communication throughout the time leading up to wedding day and finally the day of the wedding. He gives great directions for photos and also open to and accommodated photo wishes. His photos in his portfolio are what drew us to him, so make you checkout his website. We are so happy we went with him and can't wait to get are photos back!!
Picking a photographer was one of the most stressful things I had to do for my wedding, however, I know that without a doubt I made the right decision with GReyes photography! Gilbert and his wife were amazing to work with! They did a wonderful job staging pictures and making sure to capture all the important parts of our special day. Plus, they were fun to work with! Their prices were very competitive and the quality of pictures did not disappoint. Gilbert even special extra time "photoshopping" pictures I forgot to take and editing cosmetic imperfections. I really appreciate his services and I would recommend this team to anyone and everyone.
Gilbet and his team are the best! They were probably the hardest working vendors we had on our wedding day!
I didn't even know I was picky about photography style until I started researching. GReyes Photography's portfolio stood out to us because the pictures are truly stunning.
We chose the gold package from Gilbert, which was very reasonably priced for the level of talent and professional that they exhibited. It included a wedding album, engagement photos, and a full day of coverage for the wedding day. He made us feel at ease from the first time we met him (at the very beginning of our engagement photo shoot) and delivered those photos within just a few weeks. They were beautiful!
We were excited to work with him again the day of the wedding and his team did not disappoint. It was a long day (almost 12 hours) since we had a ethnic ceremony in the morning as well, but they were terrific throughout. Gilbert helped organize all the major events, helped coordinate all our big crazy family photos and delivered over 1000 photos to us within 3 months. He captured everything from the smallest details, candid laughs, to our couple and bridal portraits that made us look like models (trust me, we are the furthest thing from that)
Please do yourself a favor and book Gilbert and his team today!
Gilbert and crew are the BEST! They were amazing to work with day of, really good at working quickly and confidently and the photos turned out beautifully! They are stunning. Thank you so much!!
Gilbert is absolutely great to work with. He was very prompt and gave great advises in terms of locations, poses, and shots. Choosing a wedding photography was tough, but we settled on Greyes Photography and had no regrets. We love all the pictures he took and there were a lot!
Gilbert was one of the very best investments we made for our wedding day. From our first meeting at a Starbucks all the way through getting our photos back Gilbert was professional, fun, and personable. For both our engagement and wedding photos, he had a good mixture of candid shots and ones where he directed what we should do. On the day of, he and his second photographer Karina were present but also discreet. His editing is great and he gave us a great range of photos from natural to dramatic. He has a great eye for detail and creative shots. We could not recommend Gilbert enough - he'll actually be photographing my best friend's wedding in a few months!
Gilbert was absolutely amazing!! We can’t say enough good things about working with him. Both my husband and I have photography backgrounds so needless to say we were very picky!! He exceeded our expectations, he delivered tons of photos, all beautifully edited and technically wonderfully shot. Would choose him again in a heartbeat.
Absolutely book them!!!!! Stop looking for another photographer now!!!!
There are not enough characters available to tell anyone searching for a photographer why they should choose GReyes but I’ll try to summarize!
I knew photography was the most important vendor for me. I had a list of over 100 photographers I narrowed down from. (Crazy I know). Gilbert was professional, patient, informative, and willing to answer all of my crazy questions during the first “interview” I had with him. When I requested to see an entire gallery, I was absolutely blown away at the consistency, beauty, PERFECTION, of every image. This is what every wedding couple needs!! Don’t book based on highlight images!
Fast forward to my planning meetings. We are out of state so we did them over the phone. We spent one phone call deciding an entire timeline, just for us to change our mind a day or two later. Gilbert was flexible with the change. He was always encouraging us to make it about us and our day.
The day of was phenomenal!! He and his crew were amazing and fun. We felt like we’ve known them forever. He climbed on a bar for us, stopped traffic for us. Anything to capture the moments. Our guests, bridal party, and family who had encounters with them want to also book with him in the future! Our videographer also loved working with him. It was a seamless team. I could remain stress free and let them do their thing.
We haven’t received our photos yet, but we already know they will be everything we dreamt of and more!!!!
I may never have a professional photographer take my pictures again, but if this was that one time, I'm thrilled that we got to work with Gilbert. We have only gratitude and praise to heap upon him and his team.
Gilbert made getting photos taken so much more fun than we could have ever imagined. I really appreciated that he was patient and relaxed, but also confident and precise in coaching us on how to look our best. Neither of us thought we would feel comfortable being in front of the camera, but Gilbert and his assistants made it easy and something to be excited about instead of nervous. The pictures we received from our engagement session are incredible - they're probably the nicest photos we've ever had taken of us. The editing of the photos is also beautiful and a testament to somebody who really knows what they're doing.
Gil and team were absolutely fantastic to work with through the whole wedding process! They were responsive, friendly, fun, and the pictures all turned out absolutely stunning! We found them to be top-notch quality but were more reasonable than others we had researched. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend them!
We used GReyes Photography for our wedding just this September. We recently received our photos and they turned out amazing!!! Gilbert and Maui were our two photographers and they were so wonderful to work with. They had us laughing the entire day, literally. They made me and my husband feel so comfortable behind the camera and on the most important day of our lives. The shots they were able to get really captured our day so perfectly. We cannot stop looking at them! My husband and I can't thank you enough Gilbert. Your creativity, talent and professionalism, really is incomparable. We had so much fun we had with you & Maui. You both really made our day one we will never forget. All the photos you took were absolutely incredible. We would highly highly recommend Gilbert and his team. Thank you so much, we'll be forever grateful to you for capturing our wedding day xo
Gilbert is an amazing photographer. He did my cousin's wedding and I loved all of her photos. He did not disappoint when we received our photos a few days ago. He's so nice and easy to talk to. His work is fantastic! I would highly recommend using him for any event!
Greyes Photography is definitely the best decision we made for our wedding . Communication was great with Gilbert, he was very responsive and helpful. The entire process of dealing with him was a pleasure. From the initial consultation, engagement session, wedding day, and after the wedding. The photos he delivered are more than I could have ever dreamed of. Him and his team went above and beyond to make sure we get what we need in photos. An absolute professional and an expert at what he does. Would recommend him to anyone.
We booked Gilbert in May for our September 2019 wedding. We took our engagement photos with him last month and just got them back, and they are AMAZING! Gilbert has such talent and such a way of making you feel comfortable in front of the camera. I have received so many compliments from friends, family, coworkers, even randos. I am so excited to get to work with him again for my wedding next year, because I know I can expect similar results. Hire this guy now, thank me later.
cross posted to various places.
We did not have a huge budget for our wedding, but the one thing we did splurge on was the photography because we wanted to be able to enjoy our photos in the time to come. When I just started wedding planning, I came across GReyes Photography online and I knew instantly that I wanted them to be our wedding photographer. To my delight, they were not as outrageously priced as some of the other well known wedding photographers in Chicago. In fact, GReyes Photography is worth every single penny and more!
We had Gilbert from GReyes Photographer cover both our engagement photo shoot and our wedding, and the pictures from both event came out spectacular! Gilbert was such a pleasure to work with. He instantly put us at ease with his laid-back and casual demeanor (and at the same time so dedicated to his work). We were definitely one of those couples who were clueless in front of a camera, and he was able to coach us through the different poses to produce amazing photos. When we did have the rare spontaneous moments, he was also quick to capture them with his camera. We also appreciated how responsive they were to email and would often reply within 24-48 hours. In addition to our Chicago wedding, we had a another wedding ceremony in our home country and wanted the wedding pictures to come out in time for our second ceremony. The timeline was a little tighter than the usual turnaround time for the photos, but we reached out to Gilbert, and he was able to make it happen for us.
So many people have complimented how great our wedding pictures were. One person even came by my desk (where I have some of the wedding photos on display) and remarked how pretty they were as if they came straight out of a wedding magazine! I can go on and on about how much we love our wedding pictures and how amazing of a job GReyes Photography had done, but I'll keep keep it short and just say this - If I had to plan a wedding all over again, I would choose GReyes Photography in a heartbeat!
Photography is our number 1 priority when searching for vendors for our wedding day. I came across Gilbert and his work while doing tons of research on photographers. I was very intrigued and fascinated by his style of photography. I felt it was very unique and honest. MOST of what you'll see online are just photographers who will slap filters to their photos, there's a certain sophistication in Gilbert's photos that drew us to him.
We were lucky enough to have him available for our date. He is reasonably priced, he responded quickly to any questions we had and was very helpful when we needed help in various aspects of our planning.
Now for the good part, it RAINED on our wedding day. This is like my worst nightmare, I was almost sure that my photos will not turn out well. This is where Gilbert and his team shined. When we got our photos, we were so happy with them that we felt lucky it rained on our wedding day. Our photos were amazing. Our portraits where very unique and the candids made us feel like we were reliving our special day.
I cannot thank Gilbert and his team enough for making my dreams come true for my wedding day! If you are in search for a wedding photographer, you better contact Gilbert right away, you will not be sorry.
I received my wedding pictures last week and I can’t stressed enough how wonderful they all look. All of the pictures were high quality. You can tell that Gilbert and his partner did an amazing job. He certainly has an artistic way of capturing each and every single moment and it really shows. He was amazing to work with. My husband and I couldn’t have been happier in choosing Greyes Photography for our summer wedding and engagement pictures. I had so many compliments from my family and friends. Don’t hesitate to hire him as your photographer, you won’t regret it.
We loved having Greyes Photography for our engagement photos and wedding. The pictures came out fantastically, and they were very respectful, flexible, professional, fun, and reasonably priced. Couldn't have asked for a better photographer!
GREYES IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST!
I wish I could shout this from the rooftops to all the picky brides out there (I was certainly one of them!) and let you know you can stop your search for the perfect wedding photographer right now because you’ve just found him.
My fiancé and family can attest to my truly exhaustive search for a wedding photographer, pouring through websites, galleries and reviews — hoping to find someone who could capture beautiful candids and portraits and also get creative with artsy shots for us to frame in our new home. And when I came across Gilbert’s work, it immediately took my breath away and I knew he was the one.
He did our engagement session for us before our wedding and made us feel so comfortable right away, with his quirky jokes and friendly personality. And when we got our photos back, we couldn’t believe how AMAZING they were! His eye for framing and shot composure is unparalleled and the photos themselves could be magazine-worthy (except for the rookie models haha), with some really artistic angles of Chicago landmarks behind us.
Needless to say, we were so excited to work with Gilbert again on our wedding day! Our bridal party loved him and he kept us all genuinely smiling all day, which made for great photos :)
And speaking of the photos — OH. MY. GOSH. They are PERFECT. They exceeded my wildest wedding dreams in every possible way. They are the most wonderful depiction of the best day of our lives, with photos that give us all the feels — making us both tear up and smile.
Long story short, this picky bride never thought she’d find a photographer who could live up to her expectations... but Gilbert proved me wrong and gave me the most priceless gift, by allowing me to relive my wedding day through his unbelievable talent.
He’s definitely worth the investment and if I could go back in time, I would choose him again!
Gilbert is the most incredible photographer to work with! From the day we met him, we felt very comfortable being ourselves and immediately trusted him. But after we received our engagement photos, we were blown away by how perfect they were. We did our engagement photos on what had to be the windiest day of the year and he managed to stop time to take the most amazing shots. I cannot wait to see our wedding photos and I have no doubt they will be even better! Gilbert has a great eye for lighting and poses. If I were to do this all over again, I would 100% book GReyes Photography.
Gilbert was exceptional. From our engagement session to our wedding day, he helped in planning and executing the picture perfect day! Thank You Gilbert for everything! Can't wait to see the final photos!
Gilbert and team are PHENOMENAL. We could not have been more impressed and truly grateful for their work throughout this entire process. I am not one to like photos, but beginning with the engagement session, Gilbert put us at ease and was just very easy and fun to work with! The photos came out more amazing than I ever could have imagined. As for our wedding day, I can't even begin to describe how awesome they were. Gilbert helped keep us moving throughout the morning and made sure to get every shot we requested (we were probably a bit excessive). He has such an amazing vision and it truly is wonderful to watch him work and think of shots. Him and his team did a great job of keeping our larger bridal party organized in the 30 degree weather - they did everything they could to keep the amount spent outside as minimal as possible while still capturing all the shots we wanted. We're so excited to see how our photos turned out. Seriously, hire Gilbert!!!!
Gilbert did a wonderful job with my wedding in July 2017. Gilbert is the kind of vendor that you have peace of mind about after booking. He worked very hard the day of my wedding, taking photos at my house, my in-laws house, the church, on our party bus, at the photo site (Dominican University), and at our venue - both inside and outside. I do not consider myself a photogenic person and after getting our photos back I was beyond pleased with the beautiful pictures Gilbert took of myself and my husband, and our perfect day. Gilbert managed my large bridal party (18 total) with ease, taking charge when he needed to, but giving us choices and listening to our preferences if and when we had them. You cannot go wrong with Gilbert and his team. His work speaks for itself.
Was referred to Greyes from my manager, and we are not disappointed! The whole experience was so easy and we just received our pictures and they are so beautiful! 2 of my bridesmaids got engaged right after, and plan on using him! Do not hesitate if you are thinking of booking! Just great experience all around!
Our wedding was about 2 months ago and we just received our pictures! We could not be happier. Gilbert did our engagement and wedding day pictures. They are so easy to work with and really helped us out a lot. We planned our own wedding and unsure on how to plan everything and he was very helpful. We went over things a couple times before the wedding which really made me feel comfortable about the day. I do not even remember seeing him during the ceremony and dancing yet we have a thousand beautiful pictures of it all! He does more then just poses and captures moments of the day which are my absolute favorite. We would 100% recommend Leo (and have already!). Picking anything for your wedding is difficult as there are 1000 options. If you are looking for someone with a great personality who helps you with your day and you ends up with outstanding pictures you will not regret choosing Gilbert and his team.
GReyes Photography is amazing! My now husband and I prioritized photography and we were picky! We came across GReyes Photography, loved their work, and after speaking with Gilbert, knew we had to hire them immediately. We planned our wedding long distance, and Gilbert was wonderful to work with in the planning stages. Over the phone, he was able to help us figure out our day of schedule. At the wedding Gilbert and his assistant were fantastic. Both of them were really friendly, fun, and put everyone at ease while keeping everything on schedule. This resulted in beautiful photographs! GReyes Photography truly captured every moment of the day, and going through the photos is like reliving our wedding.
And the photos are absolutely incredible! One of my bridesmaids commented that it looks like it's from a magazine. GReyes Photography exceeded are expectations- I had no idea wedding photos could be that beautiful and artistic. Do yourself a favor and book GReyes Photography- you'll be so glad you did.
I came across Greyes Photography from friends that have used them for their weddings. We're so happy we choose Greyes Photography. Gilbert and his colleagues were so fun to work with. My husband and I have never taken professional photos before so we were a little uncomfortable at first during our engagement session. Gilbert knew exactly was to say to ease our jitters and the photos came out amazing. His editing skills are even better! We're constantly getting compliments from family and friends. Gilbert exceeded our expectations and we're so happy to have had him capture our big day! <3
GReyes Photography is so artistic and professional. We all felt well at ease on my wedding date. The communication leading up to the big day was great without being overwhelming. They are so personable. I am just sadden that they only do wedding pictures and not others like family pictures. Keep up the good work GReyes Photography!
This guy! I used him because he did my best friends wedding and I was in love with her photos. I knew what I was getting and I was not disappointed! He was great about staying in contact and checking on things as the wedding got closer. He has two shooters and I got a sneak peek on his media sites the next day. He's super pleasant and funny! He complimented me the whole time and helped carry my dress around! He was hands on and made sure you were positioned and fixed just right for photos!
It was an absolute pleasure working with Gilbert. The quality and style of his photos are just incredible. Gilbert has a fantastic eye for extraordinary shots and captures these precious moments in such a beautiful way.I highly recommend him!!
When we found GReyes Photography, we knew they HAD to be our wedding photographer. Early on, we met with some other photographers who had nice portfolios, but did not match our personalities, and were highly overpriced.
Then we found GReyes, and couldn't believe their work and affordability! From the moment we met Gilbert at our engagement shoot, we knew we made the right choice! Gilbert is patient, hilarious, and so much fun to work with. We crawled through the grass with him and stood in the middle of Chicago traffic. Our trust in him paid off with spectacular results, and we could not wait to see what he would do at the wedding.
Our wedding was a full day cultural fusion with two ceremonies. Gilbert and his team arrived at 6:30am and were with us the entire day until nearly 10:30pm! Others have said this, and it is totally true, that Gilbert will lay down on the ground outside to capture the perfect shot. His work is so beautiful and well-composed! Gilbert is constantly up for a challenge – I don’t even know how so many of our photos were captured! In the end, we received nearly 1,700 edited photos documenting our wedding day.
Gilbert and his team were the ultimate professionals; well-dressed, polite, and half the time, unseen but very hard at work! You can’t go wrong choosing GReyes Photography for your big day! We’d do it again in a heartbeat!
Gilbert was amazing - he really took charge and "corralled" our wedding party well. He got a lot of amazing shots - including all the ones we asked for. The photos are absolutely gorgeous and they were delivered to us in a timely manner.
We loved working with GReyes Photography!
I spent extensive time researching wedding photographers and when I found GReyes Photography, I was blown away by their artistic approach, appreciation for photography, and most importantly, an eye for capturing details and special moments. The price that they charge was also very reasonable for the beautiful products they delivered. The photos of our wedding beat our expectations, which were set very high after seeing the awesome work in their portfolio :)
Gilbert was a joy to work with from the very start. He was friendly, helpful, professional, punctual, and fun every step of the way. The communication was consistent, effective, and efficient.
The day of my wedding was very cold, cloudy, and windy, but Gilbert was prepared for a backup plan in the event the weather did not cooperate. He made the photo taking enjoyable, natural, and fun!
At the end of the wedding experience, what’s left is the photos… for me that was the single most important piece of the wedding and I am so glad I was able to work with Gilbert, I would recommend him time and time again.
Gil and Nessli were so great to work with! I would highly recommend them to new couples planning their upcoming weddings! The ease they gave on my wedding day was so appreciated! We had horrible weather, which was disappointing for a bride, but Gil and Nessli stayed positive and were a very calming aspect to have on my big day! Not only are they both kind souls, they are also very efficient! I loved how Gil would tell us how to pose and take a few shots and move on! We got our pictures back and we loved all of them! Book them :)
Gilbert and Nessli are absolutely amazing! Finding the perfect photographer was high on my priority list. When I came across Greyes Photogaphy, I was blown away. We met with Gilbert prior to the wedding and we instantly knew that we made the right choice. Both Gilbert and Nessli are professional, patient, and wonderfully creative. They are so easy to work with and made our wedding day so enjoyable despite the heat and humidity! They went above and beyond to get every shot we wanted. Gilbert and Nessli perfectly captured the joy and happiness of our day. I cannot thank them enough for that! My husband and I have gotten so many complements on our photos. We could not be any happier with our experience with Greyes Photography. They are truly incredible to work with and their work is just stunning!
If I could give them 10 stars I would. I love GReyes and have loved them for the past 8 years. I'm a Wedding Coordinator and have worked with them so often that I knew I had to hire them when it was my turn to get married. They showed up early and they were perfect throughout the day. They made us feel comfortable, they're funny, and I just loved having them around all day. Already have 2 sneak peek photos and I love them. So excited to see the rest!! Thank you!!
Gil and Nessil are hands down the most EPIC photographer power couple!!!
I did a TON of research before booking a photographer and really wanted photos that were more artsy/modern/sleek and not just your average wedding shots. When I saw their website I was SOLD and was panicking about how much they were gunna be. To my surprise they were almost 1/2 the price of some of the big names in Chicago and 5x better!!!!
I cannot tell you how many people ask me about who did my wedding and engagement pictures. All of my friends and family commented on how cool they were (and we all know as someone in the bridal party- pictures are the worst part!!!).
You are making a HUGE mistake if you don't book them!
I cannot even begin to describe how incredible it was working with Gilbert and Nessli Reyes of GReyes Photography for our wedding! We recently received our wedding album and WOW… it turned out absolutely stunning! They captured all of the quintessential moments of the wedding with such artistic vision that you can almost feel the emotions and excitement of the day! And not only are they simply just awesome at what they do, but they also have the most amazing personalities and presence! It was such a pleasure to work with both Gilbert and Nessli, and I would recommend them to anyone and everyone I know. Actually, one of our bridesmaids recently got engaged and was so impressed with GReyes that they just booked them for their own wedding next October! They are honestly just incredible people and so much fun to work with!
My wife stumbled across their website while browsing Pinterest and we immediately became captivated by their extensive portfolio of gorgeous engagement and wedding photos. The photos were so creative and artistic, yet still unique and intimate.
Starting with our engagement photo shoot, Gilbert and his assistant went above and beyond to make sure that we were both looking our best, while still feeling at ease. We hopped around various spots in Chicago and Gilbert was able to compose phenomenal shots while going the extra mile to teach us how to “squinch”, pose and overall look our best. I'm not kidding when I say he literally fluffed my wife’s dress, fixed our hair, hung off railings and laid down in the middle of tourists on the new river walk trying to get the perfect shot! It's so awesome when your photographer is 10x more committed and invested than even you are when it comes to getting "the shot".
That level of commitment transpired throughout the entire day of the wedding. He was enthusiastic, but still calming at the same time. He captured the mood and storyline of the day with ease, while maintaining an almost ninja-like profile so as not to take away from the authenticity of the event. Gilbert is a true artist and we are so lucky that we were able to work with him and his team. Our engagement and wedding photos are truly perfect and we could not be more delighted with how everything turned out!
Greyes Photography were Absolutely AMAZING!!!!!!!! Gil & his team were very professional, extremely talented, artistic, and a lot of fun to work with. They truly made our wedding day feel extra special. Everything flowed very nicely, they work very well with being on schedule but not feeling rushed. The pictures were BEYONG BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!! Gil truly has an incredible eye and unique vision to capturing each moment. My husband and I can truly relive our wedding day each time looking back at those photos. I highly recommend them to everyone!!!!!!! They are very reasonable and words can not describe how amazing this team is. Greyes! Thank you once again for capturing these memories that I will cherish forever!
Greyes was SO AMAZING I can't stress it enough!! The day of: they arrived on time and stayed on schedule. They were ON. IT. Gilbert was so incredible, doing anything and everything to get the shot, on an 82 degree day. I also had a HUGE bridal party (22 including us!) and he did a great job at keeping everyone focused and getting them to do/stand/etc where they needed to. Not only are they so professional and really just EXPERTS, but they are SO nice and friendly and you will want to be their friend!! More importantly, our photos are INCREDIBLE. I fell in love with their artistic style and really wanted photos that would stand out and they really are just incredible. If you are looking for amazing, artistic, unique photos that are anything but typical, HIRE THEM!!! You will NOT regret it!!!!
Our wedding photos far exceeded our expectations. They captured moments that we did not even know happened since our wedding day was such a blur. They are very professional and very knowledgeable. Gilbert guided us throughout the day. Most importantly, at a very reasonable price point, we were able to get incredible photos better than our other friends ' far more expensive photographers. They are really a find!
I can't say enough about this company! Gilbert and Nessli were so fun and professional to work with - They shot our engagement photos and our wedding photos and we were thrilled with both sets! So thankful we chose them as they truly helped make our big day such a fun and memorable process! ❤❤
GREYES photography was recommended to me by a family friend. He was the first photographer we met with and my husband and I were sold as soon as he showed us his work. Gilbert was great to work with he was able to give both my husband and I explicit directions during the shoot, which was great because we wouldn't have know how to pose. He knew the proper angles that would show off my dress and knew what moment to capture during the ceremony and reception. He was also patient and friendly and got along with the bridal party.
We recently received our link to the gallery and he and his team was able to capture every moment and details that my husband and I missed. We mare so thankful that we chose GREYES to capture our Happily Ever After!
Photography is our top priority in the planning for our wedding. We looked at dozens of wedding photographers and we are so glad we went with Greyes. From the very start Gilbert is such a pleasure to work with. Everyone in our wedding party and family loved him and his team. They are so much fun and a pleasure to work with. Gilbert is such a professional and a master and expert at what he does. He almost singlehandedly acted as my wedding photographer and wedding coordinator at the same time the way he ran the day on our wedding day since photography is a big part of our day. You can never go wrong with Greyes, the photos we received are some of the most beautiful photos i have seen in my entire life. Our wedding photos are just beautiful.
OUR BEST WEDDING DECISION! We cannot express enough how happy we are in finding Greyes. Gilbert is amazing from the very start, he was very helpful and so easy and fun to work with. He made our wedding day extra special and the photos..... are simply amazing. We are truly reliving our special day every time we look at our wedding photos. We highly recommend Greyes!
Gilbert Reyes is great to work with! My fiance and I hired him to take our engagement photos in Lincoln Park. He gave explicit directions during the shoot, which was great because I wouldn't have known what to do otherwise. He delivered the photos to us ahead of schedule, and my fiance and I look like models in the photos! We are more than pleased with Gilbert's work and recommend him wholeheartedly.
Gilbert is so amazing and so are his photos! We got our engagement and wedding photos through him and they honestly look like pictures from a magazine! He is so easy to work with and know exactly how to pose you to make the photos look great!! We have about 1200 pictures from our wedding and there is not one I don't love!!
The most amazing photographer! Greyes did our engagement photos also, and they turned out phenomenal! Gilbert and another employee photographed our wedding. They were wonderful to work with but never got in our way. They made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera and were there for EVERYTHING! They pose a lot of the photos but also make sure to get everything the bride and groom want too. Would highly recommend. So worth the money!!!!! Thank you Greyes.
If you want your wedding captured perfectly go with Greyes!
Just received my pictures and I am absolutely in love. They turned out beautifully,I can not spot looking at them. Brought tears to my eyes. Made me relive the entire day.
They are great and easy to work with,and very sweet. They make you feel comfortable and natural so you don't feel silly or awkward in any pose.
They captured angles I didn't even realize they were there.
If you want to look like you came out of a magazine,if you want pictures your family will speak about for the rest of time,if you want pictures that you fall in love with over and over again go with Gilbert and Nessli! They are amazing at what they do.
Look no further, these 2 are by far the best photographers ever! I have not even received my pictures yet but I know they will be beautiful! Gilbert and Nessli are 2 of the nicest people you will ever meet and there is no one you would rather be working with then them on the most important day of your life! They are accommodating to whatever you need; I
