Jill Tiongco Photography

t our vision was for our wedding. There were a variety of packages to choose from. We had 2 photographers on wedding day, Nicki and Alan. They made us feel so comfortable and clearly knew what they were doing! They had so many ideas for our couples photos and helped us get shots that were natural/not too posed. They did a great job photographing the entire night with a mix of candids and planned shots. We had so much fun with them. I am writing this only a few days after the wedding so we are still waiting to receive all the photos, but Jill already edited a small batch and sent to us as a sneak peak, the photos are INCREDIBLE. Seriously my mind is blown. We also had a photobooth as part of our package which our guests really enjoyed! HIGHLY RECOMMEND Jill and her team!!!!!!

our wedding and loved ones absolutely beautifully. She and her team were so communicative, on top of every detail, and so proactive!! We had so much fun working with them!!!

yone made my husband and I feel super comfortable. Would hire her again for anything I wanted professionally captured...can't recommend them enough!

y reflect who my husband and I are as a couple and as individuals. There were so many shots we adore, we giggled together at and many that touched our hearts and brought tears to our eyes. We really wanted our wedding to look and feel classic, timeless and family focused. That is exactly what she captured in our photographs. If you’re looking for talent , professionalism and absolutely gorgeous, timeless photos… no doubt with Jill that is what you will receive.

moments through her photos!!

are used to being the focal point. She made us feel so at ease during our engagement session. On our wedding day, Jill and Dan truly did the most amazing job at capturing all of the moments perfectly. Jill is talented, friendly and professional, a dream to work with. The photos she and Dan took were pure magic - we’re so thankful to have had such wonderful photographers and happy we booked JTP!

rk with her - she had such a laid back tone but I still felt like she was on top of everything. Throughout my engagement she was available over email to share her advice and answer my (multiple) questions. I really appreciated this about her - she was very communicative with her response time as well. On the actual wedding day Jill was so wonderful to spend the day with - she was positive, timely, but most importantly I really felt like she paid attention to our body language and made us feel comfortable during the photos. Jill listened to what we wanted for our pictures as well, as the majority of them are candids and feel so authentic and timeless. Jill truly captured the joy and happiness from our wedding day and I'm so happy she was our photographer. I would highly recommend Jill for your wedding and I hope to work with her again for family photos in the future.

reative and made us feel very comfortable on both occasions. We are absolutely in love with our photos and that they showcase the magic of Chicago as our backdrop. Jill was wonderful in working with our event coordinator and was so thoughtful in the moments she captured for us. Thank you!!

lly knew we made the right decision when we got our engagement photos back. I thought I would hate being in front of the camera but her style is so natural that you forget you’re on a photo shoot and just have fun (which shows through in the photos!). Jill is so fun to work with but also so organized, thoughtful, and efficient. There's so much to do in such a short period of time that I imagine it could feel chaotic but Jill does such a great job managing everyone while still keeping it light and fun. We got our sneak peek photos back just a few days after the wedding and our full gallery back way sooner than we expected as well. The photos capture our wedding day perfectly - all of the laughs, smiles, love and fun - exactly what we wanted. Our family and friends/bridal party loved working with her as well. Cannot thank Jill or recommend her enough!!!

s and our wedding party. They made the photo portion of our day so much fun! Jill and her team are so creative and really knew how to capture the love and excitement we had on our big day. The photos have turned out absolutely breathtaking! We truly could not have asked for a better photography team! I cannot recommend Jill Tiongco Photography enough!

ing pictures. She captures the genuine and natural moments other photographers are not able to. If you want beautiful and timeless photographs, then you will be pleased with Jill! She is worth it!

for my sister’s wedding and my cousin’s wedding. Prior to even booking a venue, we first booked Jill because we knew we wouldn’t want to have a wedding without her photographing it! The pictures turned out absolutely amazing and truly captured all of the best moments of the day. Not only were the photos beautiful, but she also had a “sneak peek” available in exactly 4 days and all the photos available within 1 month! Everything about her services was perfect - I would 100% recommend Jill to anyone and everyone!

work and already know that the photos capture the moments, the people look relaxed and natural, and the colors/lighting/edits are gorgeous. But what you can’t see is how Jill and her team accomplish this. A large part has to do with the way they make you feel so comfortable and that you’re in good hands. Jill brings a happy and calm energy that lets you relax and have fun. Not to mention, she’s a total pro and also takes the reigns when things don’t go exactly as planned. The photos and videos are exactly what we were looking for - they tell the story of the day and her team made us look great! ;) Thank you Jill Tiongco Photography!

did an at home shoot and at first I was incredibly awkward because I had no idea how to pose but she was able to make me feel comfortable and captured some really fun, authentic moments of me and my hubby. On the wedding day, she was so fun and easy to work with and gave great direction. We just got the sneak peeks back and OMG could not be happier! If you are looking for someone to capture any of the most important moments in your life, do not hesitate to hire Jill because her and her team are the best!

e candid shots-- the loving expressions we made when we didn't think anyone was looking-- which are now captured for eternity. And we were so pleased with the photo turnaround time- it took less than 4 weeks to get all our photos back, during an extremely busy wedding season. All our friends and family members have been commenting on how extraordinary the photos are. I knew Jill was the right choice when we had our engagement session with her, and she made us feel totally comfortable and not awkward at all (something we definitely were concerned might happen while taking photos). On the wedding day, Jill, Dan, and Alan were all a pleasure to work with- easily integrating in with our bridal party, staying relaxed, and just having fun with us. We plan to work with Jill's team for all photography needs moving forward, and give them our highest recommendation!

phy and videography. I couldn’t be happier with my choice to have her as our wedding photographer and videographer! I’m still in awe how she captured every special moment and made it look like pictures from a magazine. Not only is her work amazing, but she is so down to earth and fun to spend your big day with! She will keep you calm, laughing, and smiling on a day where nerves are at an all time high. I can’t recommend her enough - you will be in the best hands for your wedding day! ❤️

ion with family & friends in 2021. I cannot say enough great things about the beautiful photography, responsive communication and willingness to shift with us as we rescheduled again and again throughout the pandemic. Nicki was an absolute dream - she's not only lovely to spend the day with, but helps you pose in ways that feel natural, and creates stunning photographs that feel timeless. For our wedding, so many friends mentioned that there was always a member of the photography team ready and willing to take their group or couple photo - and I know they'll turn out amazing. We also used her team for the photo booth, and I am so happy we did. It was a full turnkey service (came with props and a backdrop), and the photos are so cute. Such a fun addition to our night!

ould not have turned out more perfect. Jill also did a great job of providing recommendations (like where to take photos, what will look the best, etc) and making us comfortable during photos so they looked natural. We also got a sneak peek of our wedding photos within a few days and over 800 BEAUTIFUL photos from the wedding within a few weeks. Would highly recommend Jill and her team!!!

ges - Jill and her team were SO accommodating, kept us relaxed/excited/on track the entire time. Jill & Nikki were also just so fun. Their professionalism and great sense of humor added to our amazing day. Not to mention our sneak peak photos were INSANE & more gorgeous than we could even image. We are super excited to see our full gallery and HIGHY recommend them!!!

and easy. As I found myself a covid bride, facing so much uncertainty and stress, Jill stepped up in unexpected ways going above and beyond for us! When we had to cancel our already postponed event, I didn't even know where to start in planning a small elopement. Jill helped us take the guesswork out of everything by suggesting locations for the ceremony, where to take the best photos, and how to plan the day so we could take full advantage of our time. With a lot of vendors making these pivots so challenging, Jill was ready and more than prepared to handle these changes with ease. We are so grateful for her expertise and care in making sure we still had the perfect wedding day. Her team captured us so beautifully and we will cherish these portraits for years to come. We highly recommend Jill - you will not be disappointed!!

with professional photo shoots and Jill walked us through what to do an made us feel comfortable. She got all the best shots on our Wedding day and directed our group on what to do. Nothing is staged or overly posed. Her style is candid, beautiful and she gets every detail. Working with her was a dream. Hire her ASAP before she books up!!

and helpful with organizing all the details and Emma couldn't have been more personable and easy to work with day-of. (Especially since we only had one 4-hour photographer instead of the 2 8-hour photographers we would have had!) We also did an engagement shoot and loved our photos, so did our friends and family. Jill was quick to get us sneak peek pictures for both as well, especially since the smaller wedding was mostly secret and we were anxious to put on social media! Great experience, great photos, highly recommend.

he came highly recommended by our venue and we loved how natural her photography style is. Jill is extremely friendly and has a calm, relaxed manner that immediately puts you at ease. We really appreciated her flexibility (we had a semi-last minute change to the timing of our wedding day) and ability to accommodate special requests. We had our ceremony at City Hall, so our timeline was up in the air and we were not sure how much time we would have between our ceremony and reception to take pictures. On the day of our wedding, Jill was professional but fun and handled the "on the fly" aspect of our wedding with ease. Jill had great ideas of where to shoot and how to make the best use of our time. She captured many beautiful moments that reflected the spirit of our day, including many awesome shots of our dog who joined us after the ceremony. We felt that Jill genuinely shared in our wedding joy and we really treasure the wonderful photos she took for us.

t say enough wonderful things about Jill and her entire team. She’s professional, she made myself, my family and our guests feel incredibly comfortable, and she is SO talented. I am absolutely in love with our wedding photos and she captured our day beautifully, with stunning and timeliness shots. I’ve already framed so many of them because I just can’t pick a favorite. My husband, myself, and our families will always cherish these photos and I can’t thank Jill enough!

watch! I am so thankful she was there to offer her expertise and her incredible skills as a photographer! The photos of our Bride and Groom are amazing and I'd be THRILLED to work with her again!!

ot and wedding, turned out amazing!! We've received so many compliments for our pics and we could not have been happier with how everything turned out. From emailing, working with our planner and everything the day-of, Jill and her team were professional, courteous and just fun to work with! I highly recommend Jill Tiongco photography!!

heir weddings and all of their photos turned out fantastic! I absolutely adore our photos. Every moment and feeling was captured perfectly! I could not of asked for better pictures. I highly recommend working with Jill, Nicki, and her team!

eous - the perfect mix of classic and real candid moments. Nicki was our photographer for the day of- and she was wonderful. She kept everything running smoothly, and made everyone feel at ease and comfortable throughout the whole experience. Everything exceeded my already sky high expectations- and I could not be happier. Highly highly recommend.

fun. We couldn’t be happier with the pictures and our experience! We would recommend her to anyone!

our lives. Jill was easy to work with, extremely kind and professional, and able to put us at ease on our very emotional wedding day. The pictures were fantastic and she was able to take several of our wedding guests that we were able to share. I felt like I was working with a friend who wanted the best for me! Thank you Jill for the amazing memories!!

ion to detail, overall passion behind the lens, and ambition to provide quality photos to clients was prevalent. With so many locations for shoots in Chicago, Jill helped us talk through options, and provided examples and ideas that really helped us game plan for our big days. She made sure she was informed on our preferences, and that expectations are clear for all parties. During the shots themselves, Jill took the lead and helped instruct throughout, which was extremely helpful for two non-photogenic individuals. I loved seeing Jill’s creativity shine through when after grabbing some initial photos, she’d jump in with an idea or a new angle or shot she wanted to try…those were some of the most unique! On our wedding day, it was well over 100 degrees and Jill never complained once or deviated from making sure we were comfortable with the game plan, throwing in other options for locations and timing in case we felt we could no longer take the heat, and even made an on the fly suggestion for an alternative location when our planned one was unexpectedly closed that day—because she knew the look/scenery we were going for, we ended up with amazing shots that are now some of our favorite. Jill’s style (photo-journalistic/romantic/candid/timeless), coupled with her technical photography skills, are reasons we decided on Jill and her team, and we could not be happier with the results. We of course captured some of the formal family shots as expected, but our favorite pictures are the ones capturing the raw emotions of the day…each time we look through them, we laugh and cry all over again because you really can look at them remembering and feeling the exact moments…and to us, that is the BEST AND MOST MEANINGFUL thing you can hope for in photographs (I wish I could put that last sentence in BOLD). As if all prior traits weren’t painting an amazing enough picture, throw in the fact that Jill is very people oriented, always dressed with a huge smile on her face…you can’t help but want to be in her presence! She knows how to run her business and the steps and decisions that need to be made to continuously deliver quality and timely results. I can’t recommend Jill and her team enough!! Thanks JT Photo!!

agement photos last summer and our wedding photos this June. Both turned out incredible and we are beyond thrilled! I would highly recommend Jill to anyone!

tos edited and done in record time! My husband and I worked with Jill for almost a full year on Engagement, Boudoir and Wedding photography. Each step of the way was better than the last. Her style is photo-journalistic, timeless & romantic, which she completely nails. I expressed to her that I LOVE candid shots, and while portraits and fam photos are important (and honestly some of my favorite of the day), what I was really looking forward to are candid shots of my husband and I, our friends, and our families - and BOY did she deliver. I am currently attempting to select just 50 of our photos for an album, and I am STRUGGLING - they are all too good! I can't recommend Jill enough. Trust me, she's worth it! Elayna & John 5.5.18

sional, prompt, well-organized & talented! She communicated with me throughout the wedding day; like having a friend by my side. Her staff and her are fun people to have with you too! Also, my friends and family have all said they think our wedding photos are the best they've seen. You should definitely book with Jill! She's the best!

and could capture all of our special moments. When I look back at our gorgeous photos it brings me back to our special day and I owe that all to Jill!

captured everything beautifully. I've never had a photographer that actually asked what you wanted and listened for the answer. She made sure to capture ALL of the important parts and the true emotion surrounding our special day. On top of here amazing photography- our day went off without a hitch because of her coordination and help with timeline. We truly could not have asked for a more amazing experience and we will remember it for the rest of our lives! Thank Jill!! Can't wait to work together again :)

ure their wedding day and I was blown away. We HAD to have her do our wedding. Prior to the day, Jill helped a ton in giving suggestions on wedding timeline, wedding photo venues and answered all ad hoc questions we had. On the day, Jill and team were amazing and made us feel very comfortable and guide us through the nervousness. Jill made sure that we had a very special first look and was able to capture the moment perfectly so we can enjoy it forever through her photography. After the first look, we took photos in front of the board of trade and at the planetarium...Jill knew all of the spots for the best photos! If you are looking for a photographer for your day, Jill is the best..literally, do not hesitate!

rk with, organized, and prompted. Not to mention our pictures turned out AMAZING! Choose her and you will not be disappointed! :)
