We've had Janet as our engagement photographer and now as our wedding photographer, and she is just incredible. With limited time and working with me and the groom separately as we...
weren't having a first look, she handled pictures with us so well and was able to turn a tight schedule into us needing some time to kill! Her confidence, excitement for her work, and her knowledge of posing and lighting and everything else that makes a good photo is so clear in everything she does. It's no wonder she's been a staple photographer for much of my husband's family for any of their photo needs, and I certainly can't recommend her enough now, either!
Hiring Janet was one of the best decisions of my wedding! Not only was she responsive and extremely helpful during the planning process, day-of she moved things along seamlessly an...
d went above and beyond to get the perfect shots. Final product was no different! Not only did we receive 3500+ photos, but I was blown away by the quality of them all. It is hard to choose which to print! If you are looking for an event photographer-look no further! I would 1000% hire Janet again!
Hiring Janet as our wedding photographer is the best decision I made while wedding planning aside from my choice in groom 😉. Janet truly made the wedding planning process so much ...
easier. With her insight and opinions on wedding day details I felt confident in the choices that I made for our wedding day. She went above and beyond in every way imaginable. She spent hours on the phone with us pouring over the many questions and concerns I had, especially as the day approached. Her thoughtfully crafted time line kept our day on time, and running like a well oiled machine. We also hired a videographer company, and Janet took point on the day, but also worked so beautifully with the videographers. One of our videographers told us Janet was her favorite photographer she has ever worked with. Through our time together on our engagement shoot, and our phone calls, Janet truly felt like family on the wedding day. She was a warm, and steady part of ensuring everything was exactly as I wanted it to be. While I haven’t even received my wedding photos back yet, I KNOW Janet captured every detail beautifully and I can’t wait to see them. Just seeing the three sneak peaks she sent me, has me in complete awe of her work and dedication to her craft. She truly is incredible, and if I have one piece of advice for my future brides, it would be to hire Janet as their wedding photographer.
Wow. I don't even know where to start. Janet was the MOST amazing photographer I have ever shared an experience with. She is so kind and accommodating I can't even put it into word...
s. My photos are the most favorite part of my wedding. She knows exactly the right poses and shots to take. My day started out by running late (nothing new for me, LOL) and she was so cool with utilizing that time to photograph my husband getting ready while I was in hair and makeup. She had such a great attitude towards everything even after stressing to me weeks beforehand that being on time will be important in my tight schedule. She ran the show and got all of the photos I had wanted and even snuck in a few extra at the venue at my request. She and I shared a few phone calls beforehand so we could be on the same page with one another about everything. I knew from the moment my husband and I met with her that we wanted her to photograph our wedding. Her turn around on the sneak peeks and full set of photos was weeks before I was expecting. I love every single photo she took. They captured everything I wanted and more. I got so many compliments on them and some of my friends are actually wanting to use her for their own weddings and more. THANK YOU so much Janet for doing an amazing job. We loved you.

If you are looking for an energetic, kind, knowledgeable, hands-on, wonderful and talented photographer in the Chicago suburbs, look no further. We found Janet through a friend's r...
ecommendation, and we are so happy she was our wedding photographer. Janet is young and just "gets it" - she knows you want to look svelte, she knows your bridal party wants to get to cocktail hour and not be outside taking photos for hours, she knows your mother-in-law will want that elusive "entire family" shot (even though you don't want to wait around while people round up cousins) - and she makes it all happen. I didn't have to worry one bit about whether Janet was getting the shot, if we were running over on time, if I was standing right - she just WORKED. And we couldn't be happier with the outcome. Our photos are incredible. Janet made us feel comfortable, from our first meeting with her to our engagement session and then on our wedding day. She is fun-loving and always made us laugh, too. She is truly talented - the techniques she used, expressions and angles she captured are truly phenomenal. Janet doesn't work with an assistant, which made me a little nervous since I didn't want to miss anything, but she is a "hustler" in her own words, and got every little detail we were hoping for. I cannot recommend her highly enough!
Janet showed all of her knowledge just in our first meeting. She wiped together a day of timeline and I was amazing. I highly recommend doing the engagement photo session with her....
The photos all came out amazing and it was nice to get comfortable with being photographed! She has a great turn around time and I love that we get copy rights to the photos! Thanks Janet for all your amazing work!
