PRUDENCE PHOTOGRAPHY

Ty and Tony were truly amazing on my wedding day. I shared some inspo pics we had and they captured all of them. They were on time, communicative, and helped guide my husband and I for the best pictures. Also, pricing was very reasonable compared to other photographers in the Chicagoland area. 10/10!

AMAZING!!! My husband and I are so glad we chose Prudence Photography to captured our wedding on October 7, 2023. Ty unfortunately couldn’t photography our day due to an injury, however, Lukasz, did an amazing job!!!! Ty communicated to Lukasz everything we talked about and he made sure to get every shot possible. Also, we love how flexible Ty was with us for our wedding package. Ty listens to the client and delivers nothing but the best! Thank you for everything Ty!

This review is a little late, but Ty photographed our May 2023 wedding and did a fantastic job! He communicated with us at every step of the way and answered all of our questions leading up to our wedding. He helped us draft a timeline for photos and made sure we stuck on schedule. We were nervous but Ty helped us ease up and took beautiful photos of us on our wedding day. I am so glad we decided to hire Prudence Photography! We definitely plan to hire Ty in the future!!

Ty went above and beyond to make sure our wedding photos were just what we were looking for! He is very particular with the shots, lighting, and was also helpful in posing suggestions. I love our photos and would recommend Ty for any wedding or event.

Ty is professional, talented and incredible affordable. We hired him for our microwedding and a second family celebration and were thrilled with this communication and end results! I hired him without knowing anyone who'd had a personal experience, so let me be your "friend" who vouches that Ty is amazing!

Let me start by saying Ty was amazing. From the very beginning he took the time to figure out what I wanted from my photos (honestly I had no idea) he really helped to guide my fiance, now husband. He also help direct us through out. All the pictures were beautiful, I got so many compliments on both my photos and how nice my photographer was. Also used him both for my engagement shots and wedding, photos came make in a timely fashion. Would highly recommend him.

Ty really made our vision for our wedding come together. From our first zoom meeting to the day of the event we never stressed about the service Ty delivered. We had several friends ask for contact info after we posted several photos. We loved all of our photos and would recommend Ty for any special occasion.

I cannot express enough how appreciative we are that we found Ty!! His personality alone was a win for us! He is patient, kind, and so knowledgeable! The moment he told us, “my goal is for you to still look like YOU, natural” we knew he was the photographer for us! He is so creative and directed us to where we felt that we were on the same wavelength as him and understanding his vision! We cannot recommend him and his team enough!!!

Ty came as a recommendation from another couple that we know well and I could not be more thankful for that recommendation! Ty was exactly what we needed for our wedding. He was attentive, communicative, and made everything feel so smooth and natural. He also managed the change of locations really well between our pre-ceremony photos and the venue and was able to get family portraits done in exactly the amount of time he said it would take. The photos he took came out beautifully and we could not be happier with his hard work. Ty is the one you want to work with!

Ty was absolutely wonderful to work with. From the planning to the wedding day, he was very responsive and amazing each step of the way. We are so thankful to Prudence Photography for capturing our big day and couldn’t be happier with the final photos!

Ty was wonderful to work with and very talented. He went out of his way to make sure we were happy. We requested two photographers for our wedding and he brought Tony who was also wonderful. Our photos are stunning! I cannot recommend Prudence Photography enough!

Ty is seriously amazing. He was able to capture every moment. We got over 2000 images and all of them were perfectly edited and they all came back pretty fast. I'm honestly very impressed by his work. He made me feel comfortable on my wedding day and made sure my smile was very natural and not fake. He also collaborated with my videographer very nicely and they never worked together before. Unfortunately, I was left at the hotel on accident by my bridal party and Ty made sure I got to the church on time and he ordered me an Uber XL and tried to make me laugh the whole way there. He also stayed a little extra to capture pictures on the mezzanine that I really wanted. He did above and beyond what he was supposed to do. I highly highly recommend him and his second shooter was hilarious we loved him and he did a great job as well. Book Ty! Hurry though he gets booked up fast.

Excellent choice to book Ty and his Team! Truly amazing photos that me and my husband will cherish forever. Very attentive, professional, calm and just overall creative. He has dynamic energy that will melt any anxiousness you may have on your big day! And I did, he helped me stay at ease and focus. Don’t look no further! Ty is your guy!

We had an awesome experience with Ty. He was professional, responsive, and took amazing photos. We feel like we lucked out when it came to finding him! The only suggestion I would have if you do book him would be to try to research different poses you want before your photo sessions, as I do feel like we didn't have much variety in our poses. If you end up sending him photo or video inspiration ahead of time, I'm sure he would be able to guide you. But some of our photos felt a little awkward because the poses were repetitive or not as creative as they could have been (which is partly our fault). Otherwise, he has an eye for locations and editing, so your photos will turn out great!

Ty is an absolutely fantastic photographer and I couldn't be happier with our decision to work with him for our wedding. He has a wonderful presence to be around all day and is great at making everyone look their best in all of the photos. He gave us exactly what we wanted in terms of poses and the overall look of the photos. If you're looking for someone to be 100% confident in and know you will enjoy spending the day with them, choosing to work with Ty at Prudence Photography is the way to go!! So so so grateful for his services!!

Not only is Ty Professional and punctual…. But also can put any anxious bride and groom at ease. He’s funny, talented and amazing. 5/5. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

I am so beyond thankful to have had Prudence Photography capture all the memories from my wedding. Ty was so wonderful to work with from start to finish. Our wedding was supposed to take place in 2020, but was rescheduled to 2021, which Ty was so accommodating with. It was so nerve-wracking to reach out to vendors and not know if they would transfer their contracts over due to Covid, but Ty made it feel like it was not a problem a all. I originally found Ty through a friend who also used him for her wedding and also had such a positive experience. He took our engagement photos, took the time to discuss day of timelines, family dynamics, picture and location requests, and even allowed for us to have our dog involved with engagement pictures and wedding day photos. He was happy to accommodate all of our requests to make sure we got all of the photos we wanted to get. On the day of the wedding, Ty was the perfect combination of being organized and easygoing. He brought such a calmness to the day, which was much appreciated. He also has a true passion for what he does. He had such clear ideas of the photos and poses to get which made it seamless to follow his direction. Ty worked well with our entire vendor team, most of whom he hadn’t met before. He did recommend our videographer to us though, which worked out well. He also worked behind the scenes with my dad to put together a surprise slideshow with childhood pictures, which was so special to us. He was prompt in his communication throughout planning and stuck to his turnaround time in getting our pictures and photo album back to us. Speaking of the photo album…wow! We received a 12x12 acrylic cover photo album with thick pages as a part of our package. It is so high quality. I am truly obsessed with it and look through it daily. I can’t say enough good things about Ty and am so thankful that he was a part of our wedding team. Pictures were something that were really important to me in planning for the wedding and we couldn’t be happier with how they turned out. We will treasure them forever. Thank you, Ty!

Ty did a great job with the photos for our split wedding (tiny ceremony in June, larger reception in December). The photos came out great, and he was a pleasure to work with.

We love Ty! Wow what at amazing work! We just received our photos and we're so amazed at how much photos he captured throughout the day. The composition, style, lighting and overall aesthetics are top notch! The pricing is very reasonable too, and we definitely received the quality work that exceeds our expectations. Thanks Ty! Just like you said, "memories are priceless", thank you!

Ty and Joe did an absolutely outstanding job with our wedding. He was incredibly flexible with our schedule, helped us plan out the day, and captured every single moment perfectly. On top of that, he is the most affordable wedding photographer in the area, you will not get a better price and better service from anyone else. Ty also did our engagement shoot and he edited our photos with our dog so perfectly that we will have them up in our home forever. We HIGHLY recommend prudence photography to everyone, you will not be disappointed.

Ty was an incredible photographer- very communicative from the first time I reached out & was willing to have multiple calls before booking, as well as after in order to prepare for the wedding & ensure he got the shots that were most important to me. His photography is so creative & the shots are stunning- we could not have asked for a better experience with Ty day of the wedding & nor could we have expected to get such amazing photos that captured the beauty of the day & that were edited perfectly

Ty was an absolute pleasure to work with for both our engagement and wedding day photos! We are absolutely thrilled with how the pictures turned out, and Ty made the entire process a positive experience from start to finish. We highly recommend his services, and hope to have the opportunity to work with him again in the future!

Ty was an amazing and professional photographer from planning, to the day of photos, to sending us the final photos. During our wedding planning, he was always quick to answer any questions we had. On the day of, he was good at suggesting poses AND capturing candid spontaneous shots. Half of our favorite photos are shots that he carefully staged and directed. The other half we're completely spontaneous, candid moments that he captured perfectly on film. He worked really well with our wedding coordinator and independent videographer - super professional. His cost was reasonable compared to other photographers we looked at, and he was worth every dollar we spent. I am glad that we didn't try to shop around more or cut corners. You will be happy hiring him for your wedding.

There were many photographers we talked to before we decided to hire Prudence Photography. I'm glad we did! From the very start, I can tell how passionate Ty is about his profession and he takes it seriously. With his experience in the field, he was able to guide us every step of the way to make sure we are not at lost with photography logistics and the whole planning process. To top that, he's so creative and artistic and made sure we got the best photography for our Big Day. Thank you Prudence Photography.

Ty is very helpful throughout the process. We booked him and his team to take charge of Photography and Video. It's one of the best decisions we made on our wedding day as they made sure everything is covered and done so professionally.  We'll hire him again in a heartbeat for any other occasions we may have in the future! Think no further, Prudence Photography is your vendor!

My fiance and I just had our engagement shoot done with Ty, it was absolutely wonderful. He is kind, patient, punctual, and professional. He helps with your posing but makes sure it looks natural and is what you are comfortable with. I am so excited for him to be shooting our wedding, I am so confident in him. The pictures came out beautiful and our family/friends are blown away by them. If you are looking for a GREAT experience and photographer, you found him!

Ty Acierto did an outstanding job photographing our wedding! He was professional, down to earth, and beautifully captured our special day. He was wonderful to work with throughout the whole process. Family and friends at our wedding even commented on how much they loved Ty. He was patient, clear in providing directions, and captured every special moment. We were so impressed with the quality of the photos and the beauty of his work. We are so happy with our experience and we highly recommend Prudence Photography.

Ty Acierto at Prudence Photography was so wonderful to work with. He is so professional and friendly and was very responsive to all of our needs. Ty spent a good amount of time talking with me on the phone before the wedding so that he could learn exactly what we wanted. Our wedding was non-traditional and Ty made me feel confident from our first phone call that he would be able to capture it exactly the way we wanted it. We received our pictures within the time frame promised and they turned out beautiful. We purchased a package with an album included and we LOVE our wedding album. It is absolutely stunning and we have gotten so many compliments on it! We would highly recommend Ty for any special occasion. Thank you Ty for capturing so many wonderful memories of our wedding day!!

Ty is absolute perfection when it comes to photography. He takes his time, listens to your wants, and catches every moment! We just looked through our wedding pictures and we are blown away!! Thank you, Ty, for capturing our wedding in the most beautiful of ways.

Ty was an amazing photographer to work with for our wedding. From the first phone call we had with him, my husband and I knew that he would be a pleasure to work with on our big day. He worked quickly, the pictures turned out beautiful and he was extremely calm during the day. I never realized how important it would be to have a photographer who was so calm—the day is so full of energy with family and friends, it was a relief to have a photographer who was composed amidst all the excitement. We got married on July 19, 2019—it was one of the hottest days of the year (around 95 degrees) and we took all of our photos outside. Ty never made any comment about the heat, instead he was prepared and focused on getting all of the important shots I wanted. I was nervous about creating the timeline, but with Ty’s help and willingness to be accommodating, everything worked out perfectly. I recommend giving yourself more time than you think, we used his services for 10 hours and it ended up being the perfect amount of time. We took photos for an hour at the hotel, then drove to our venue and then had about 3 to 4 hours before our ceremony to take pictures with family and the bridal party. He then continued to take photos throughout the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and reception. If you’re unsure about going with one or two photographers, I think one is plenty for a wedding of our size. Our families are not too large, and we had 7 bridesmaids, 5 groomsmen and 115 guests. Ty was all encompassing for the kind of person you want to work with when it comes to such a special day—he is relaxed, in his element and we got our gorgeous pictures back in about 5 weeks!

I could not have imagined a better photographer! Ty is so incredibly talented. He has a great vision which is brought to life through each detail he focuses on. He is very professional, organized, and knowledgeable. He helped so much in creating the timeline for the day. We had many conversations about the specific shots that I wanted. He delivered that and even more than I could have imagined. The day of, he was very flexible. We had a big bridal party, and he was able to organize everyone to create beautiful shots. He is great at thinking on his toes and visualizing shots based on the location. I have already recommended Ty to many brides-to-be because they have asked. Everyone that has seen the wedding photos has been truly wowed by them. He managed to capture every single magical moment of our day. I can’t thank him enough for everything he did! I highly recommend Ty for any event. He is the best to work with.

Ty Acierto is the exact type of photographer you will want to include on your special day: hardworking, creative, joyful and a lighting genius! I first met Ty at my best friend's wedding where I got to see how quickly Ty was able to capture various shots and how easily he was able to blend into the celebration. After seeing the beautiful photos he captured for my friend, I met Ty for coffee and made the best decision to hire him for my own wedding. Ty captured so many beautiful shots for my engagement shoot that occurred during a polar vortex and for my wedding that occurred during a heat wave (Thanks, Chicago!). Ty is extremely easy to communicate with and will actively listen to the types of shots that you want to capture. I specifically chose to work with Ty because of his great reviews and because of his diverse portfolio of clients. He was a wonderful part of our multicultural wedding and I am so thankful I will have the memories that he helped us capture. Thank you, Ty!

We had Ty photographed our Engagement session last week! We got our photos back and are very much lost for words on how creatively he captured our candid moments! I am so glad we booked him for our 2019 wedding! No regrets here, just feeling at ease that we found the right photographer for our Big Day! Ty offers competitive rate for engagement photo session so if you’re in doubt, give him a try! You won’t be disappointed!

Prudence Photography has been incredibly reliable all throughout our Engagement shoot and wedding day! Headed by Ty, the photographs we received exceeded our expectations! We received a copyrights certificate which allows us to duplicate the photos without any restrictions and this is an A ++ for us! He provided great directions with stunning results! Me and my partner are both camera shy and he made us feel very comfortable. We will book him again!

We found Ty through Yelp and The Knot. He followed up immediately and we sat down for a coffee. Right away I knew, we found the right photographer. He's not selfish in providing information and letting us know how to make our Big Day hassle free. He didn't force us to book him and gave us enough time to think about booking his service (though it's not needed as we already know, he's our guy!). The Photos are astonishing and magical. We received our album shortly after our digital copy. We LOVE THE PHOTOS and framed one big copy of our favorite shot! Thank you Prudence Photography! Thank you Ty!

Ty is very helpful in making sure we get the photos that we wanted for our wedding day! He's attentive, creative and very responsive. We got our photos last week and we couldn't be more happier! He initially set up a meeting and made sure that we're all in harmony with the wedding day timeline. Highly recommended and surely a gem amongst professional photographers! I already booked our anniversary photo shoot next year with him!!

Excellent Photographer!! Captured our moments perfectly. Ty made sure we’re comfortable with all the poses and he was very attentive to details. Photos were delivered on time and we couldn’t be more satisfied. I’m glad we found Ty and his team. Thank you for capturing our Big day the way we envisioned it!!! Look no further, Ty is your guy!!

Absolutely in LOVE with all of our pictures! Ty is nothing short of fantastic. Ty beautifully captured our wedding day. He is a phenomenal photographer. Not only that, but he's super great to work with. Ty was super responsive to the many emails I sent - I don't think I ever waited more than 24 hours for a response. Ty asked all the right questions to ensure that we got everything we wanted. He made sure that my husband and I were going to be thrilled with the final products. From our engagement shoot through our wedding day, we were so incredibly pleased. I would recommend Ty to anyone in need of a photographer!!

Our photos ALWAYS end up exceeding our expectations. I can't imagine us turning to any other photography service ever again. Thank you so much!

Ty is an amazing photographer. I was one of the models for Ep Couture Bridal photo shoot. The photos came out great even though it was hard to shoot because it was very cold that day! Ty`s work really captured true beauty of the gowns, but also each models uniqueness. Will definitely use his services again. :)

My name is Ewa Perkowska and I am the owner of Ep couture! We used Ty services for one of our bridal photo shoots and he did an exelent job! He is very creative, super fun to work with and very professional. We will definitely use his services again. Thank you Ty! <3

Ty is the best photographer! We just got our photos back to us and every single picture is amazing. There is not one thing I️ would have changed. Not only are the pictures beautiful, but Ty is so easy and so fun to work with. He makes you feel so comfortable! He was very quick to respond to emails and was very accessible whenever we had questions or concerns. I️ would definitely recommend him!!

Ty is amazing! He is a true artist with a passion for photography! After months of research we are so grateful we found Ty to capture our wedding day, he is a true professional with such a calm demeanor. The photos he has taken are absolutely stunning, it is like reliving that amazing day whenever we look at them! We highly recommend Ty and cannot thank him enough for all of his amazing work!!!!

Ty is AMAZING!! My fiancé and I did not know what to expect when we decided to get engagement pictures done, but Ty made the experience wonderful!! He is so nice, down to earth and passionate about photography. We had so much fun working with Ty! We received the pictures in 5 days! The pictures came out great!! Thanks Ty!!

Absolutely amazing!!! Ty is outstanding and was able to perfectly capture our day! He is able to view and photograph things the average eye cannot see, in addition his editing skills are phenomenal!! He arrived exactly as expected and kept to my timeline, he immediately responded to all my emails. Planning a wedding is stressful but dealing with vendors like Ty made it much easier ! I'd hire him again in a heartbeat and highly recommend his services, you will not be disappointed'
