Merit Photo & Video

ery photo and can't stop watching the CD's. They truly are the best in the Chicago area book them for everything you may have going on totally worth it. Thanks Ray and Eddie for everything! Can't wait for our next event!

on. I met with other studios before Merit but was very uneasy about not knowing my photographer until my wedding day. I don't understand how other couples are ok with that. Our photographer was an absolute pleasure to work with, answered all our calls/emails on time, showed up early on the wedding day (which put at ease) and took some great pictures that we are excited to show off to our family and friends. I have already recommended Merit to my engaged coworker and will continue to do so. Great studio and great service.

e with our guests and took tons of beautiful pictures that day. From helping us with pinning our boutonnieres (because we just could not do it right :), to assisting with many fun ideals during the day, our photographer was more like a wedding planner to us. We could not have been happier with our photography choice. Our photos turned out great. Our families and us really enjoyed working with our photographer and would highly recommend Merit Photo & Video to any engaged couples out there.

too large of studios for the attention to detail I was looking for. Our photographer was personable, easy to coordinate with and showed up early on the day of the wedding. Loved Merit Photo & Video!

be a stress free bride when it comes to your wedding photo and video go with them! It was truly a pleasure. They made my wedding day perfect!!

deal for our money, and would recommend them to anyone. Thank you!

h when needed and were very accommodating. Their work is beautiful and we are very happy we choice them to be a part of our day. We definitely would recommend them!

eless memories because of his dedication to our special day. Then, after our photos were printed, we were able to get the photos just the way we wanted them. They worked around our late hours too. They used excellent paper and made high-quality parent albums. I would definitely use them again.

d awesome job with my wedding from start to finish. They made sure that all the important elements of the wedding were photographed. The pictures were spectacular. Everyone loves the quality of them. I can't wait to use them for other events that I have have in the future. They are so professional and so much fun to work with.

ke a picture. He made the wedding so much more fun and less stressful. I can tell that the photos are going to turn out amazing!

service was wonderful. We had Eddie, and he was very personable, energetic, and fun! I would recommend them in a heart beat.

lol) and one of my friends cousin recommended them greatly because she had them for her wedding. So I went to see what all the rave was about! and as soon as we sat to talk with the owner, he was understanding, listened to exactly what we wanted, very precise, professional, and was on top of everything!. They took amazing photos that everyone till this day asks me who took the pictures. I cant come to words on how they made my photo album, nothing i've ever seen before! As they had very good quality videos, they brought room lighting which enhanced the room so much!. i could go on and on, I'm so thankful for their work and have recommended them to all my family and friends, and i've continued to see them at events as well and I always tell them it will be worth every penny!.

I love them. The hardest part was picking out the ones for my album. Merit team did an amazing job,and every time I hear someone is getting married I tell them to go to Merit photo & video they have the best value by far. Thanks Ray and Edi for making my wedding day a day I will remember forever.

ided by Merit photo&video team and can not thank them enough for our amazing album. We highly recommend Merit Photos & Video to anyone who wants affordable packages, great service and fantastic photos. Wedding: 08/22/2013 Services Used: Photography & video..

are confident that they will look beautiful.

emony and celebration. Picture quality is very good and some great moments were captured. Thank you !

et up for displaying them than the way you chose to organize them in the album. We've shown our friends and family the album and each person who sees it is amazed by the beauty and creativity that was used to create it. I also enjoy sitting down and looking through it whenever I have a few minutes of free time, I can't get enough of looking at it. As for the video, that also was an amazing piece of art. Jay and I now have seen it ten times and each time we see it we notice something different. We've seen the video with both family members and friends and every time we show it we watch the whole thing without skipping anything. We've laughed and cried and been reminded of things that we hadn't remembered. Not only was the product you gave us incredible, but so were your services. We met with you several times before the wedding and each time you gave us suggestions but never pushed for any particular decision. You allowed us to dictate what we'd like and let us describe what we dreamed of. You were never pushy but treated us with the utmost respect both before and during our wedding day. You were very professional in all your dealings with us but you made sure to include the emotional element in the product you gave us. You were very kind and understanding with us and we will always remember the great experience we had with our Photographer and Videographer. Jay and I will always be grateful for your incredible work and the speed at which you were able to get the final product to us. We will definitely recommend you to any of our family or friends who ever need a photographer and/or a videographer.

....Very professional, but very friendly.

Amazing work! Highly recommended.

best job they could to make our day perfect and that is exactly what they did. From beginning to end, they coordinated everything for us. We never had to worry about anything, which is just what you need on that special day. We met with them several times to add or change things we thought were special to us. It was good to have the photographer and videographer from the same company. Things went so smoothly. We have more pictures than ever to choose from to make our album.....Can't wait to see the video!!

rapher so much, I am still hearing about how wonderful he was! The best part of Merit is their flexibility and range of styles. Whether you like traditional, posed portraits or in the moment photojournalism, they will accommodate whatever you want. Working with them was an easy and relaxed experience!

th us to design a package around our tight budget, and went above and beyond to meet all of our needs. We were very glad to have our photographer on our wedding day! He was on time, enthusiastic, and energetic. He took all the pictures we had asked him to take, and many more! The quality of our photos is unbelievable, and we couldn't be happier!

ur son’s wedding from the photos and video at home to the end of evening, it was unbelievable!!!! Again, many thanks for all of your hard work. We hope to use you in the future for all of our family functions. We will highly recommend you to all of our friends and family

questions and emails. Also their works speaks for itself. We used both Photography and Videography services. They are very talented and you can tell they care! By the end of the wedding we were all like best friends. My engaged friend told me at the wedding that she loved how attentive our photographer was and that she will book Merit for her wedding. Our wedding video looks like a real movie and our wedding album - well I have never seen a better looking designer album. Thank you Merit Photo & Video. We will definitely let all of our family and friends about you and hope to use your services again in our future joyous events.

worked to try and meet all of our requests. We hired Merit for two days and every step of the way, they were following us taking photographs and videos. They did not leave a moment undocumented so we could re-live our wedding to this day! One of the more amazing feats they accomplished was during the first day. After we had gone through an entire days worth of traditions(8 AM to 8 PM), they left for home to put together a wedding collage of the entire days events for the wedding that would be taking place the next day. After speaking with them, they went to the office after our first day of activities and worked till 3 AM to complete our Video Collage! It was beautiful and it shocked a lot of the guests considering the events on screen transpired the previous day! Overall, the level of professionalism, service, quality, value, and attention spent on our wedding, i would whole-heatedly recommend Merit for ALL of your photography and video needs. They will make your dreams come true with class, style, and professionalism. Make sure not to be late for anything on your wedding day because they will be there on time making sure you have one less thing to worry about.

hers out there so I set up a meeting. We ended up booking that night! Merit’s customer service was awesome! We had all the contact information we needed, our photographer was always prompt in calling us back and setting up times to chat before the wedding. Our proofs were up really quickly, and once we had finalized our album it was done in about two weeks. Everyone was so professional— and they even brought two photographers for the day itself. You didn’t notice them at all during the ceremony, and they got all the “must have” pictures that I requested. All the follow-up with the album was great and they were sure that everything was done exactly how I wanted. As for the finished product, I really like our album quite a bit—it was well done and I like the pictures I ended up choosing. We chose to do the majority of the pictures before the ceremony and I LOVED all the pictures outside and before everything started. Because our photographers were doing a great job of not interfering with the ceremony, there were fewer outstanding ceremony pictures, though certainly enough for a great page in the album, and in the end I liked how they kind of hung back and let us do our thing. They were sure to get shots of all our guests, too, which was nice to have!

My video was ready in just about a month! They even had a music video ready to go for all of my friends to view on Facebook! I honestly almost did NOT go with any videographer and now I can't even imagine missing out on this opportunity!!!

fell in love with them. The day I can't engage I called to see if they were open on that day . They did an amazing job. We were all like best of friends by the end of the wedding...thank you so much for the wonderful job.. We love the video and the album.. Every time I look at the album I feel like it our wedding day all over again.. Thank you

work until the job was complete. The engagement session was well organized and the photos turned out beautifully. We were able to meet with our photographer several times well in advance of the wedding day and then again the week preceeding the event so we could go over the plan to make sure everything was clear. On the day of our wedding, and even since then, we have heard nothing but complimentary comments about how hard our photographer worked and how enthusiastic and easy going he was when dealing with people. He managed everyone with respect, and kept us all on track. We just can't say enough good things about our experience! One thing that helped us save a lot of time was having someone who helped run the day and keep things going. She was a huge help to our phtotgrapher because she had people lined up and ready to go so all he had to do was ask her to call those people forward. It made the whole process go a lot quicker!
