Their work is truly high quality, with an artistic and beautiful style that captured all the special moments of our day.

Working with Ez was so incredibly easy. Not only were they incredibly easy to work with and captured incredible photos, they also were so incredibly helpful and supportive the entire day. Working a hot summer wedding in July is not always the most fun but Ez was constantly making sure I was hydrated, had food and was assisting with all photo needs that were necessary. As a vendor, Ez is someone I would work with again and again. Highly recommend!!

Hi! My name is Brittany and I LOVE my job. I focus on emotionally driven images and I have the prompts/poses to pull out the magic.

Not sure about what kind of pictures you want? Talk to me! We can incorporate creativity into the shoot that'll show off who you are! Give me a call, I can't wait to meet you.

Awarded Best of Zola
If only there were more than 5 stars to give Brittany and Rock 1 Photography... She is the most professional, efficient, light-hearted, positive, and FUN photographer I've ever had the pleasure of working with. We worked together on a wedding once (I am a floral designer), and I was so impressed by her that I hired her to take photos of my family. On a crummy-weather day, where toddler temper tantrums and bad attitudes were flying high, Brittany somehow managed to snap shots that made us look like the happiest, most attractive family ever!! To say I was blown away is an understatement. If you're looking for a photographer who you can TRULY count on, and is GUARANTEED to get you the most amazing pictures from your wedding day - look no further... Brittany is the absolute BEST!

  • Photojournalistic style

I believe you can't stand behind your business unless you can say you fully understand it – and 24 years of marriage is proof that I KNOW LOVE. I set out to capture the essence of love when I started Parker Photography in 2018. I have been married to my best friend for the last 24 years, and people who meet us swear we are newlyweds. We still act like lovestruck teenagers with each other, that same feeling we get from every newly engaged couple that we meet. We know where our couples are coming from and what they hope to capture in their engagement sessions and on their wedding day, and we make it effortless for them to achieve their goals.

Awarded Best of Zola
Deb and her team did an absolutely amazing job with our wedding pictures in April 2021. The pictures are so beautiful and did a great job of capturing our day. She got the pictures back to us so quick too! Our friends and family have not stopped texting us raving about how nice the pictures came out! Would recommend Parker Photography to anyone.

Hey! Aaron and Becka here! We are wedding photographers based in the North Suburbs of Chicago. We have three kids; Judah (4), Jane (2), and Dan (6 months). Being parents is one of the sweetest gifts we have ever been given! When we aren't doing photography or ministry, we are either going for hikes as a family, playing music together, working on updating our 200 year old house, or hanging out with friends! We both love the shooting side of photography, but when it comes to the admin and post-creative, that's where Becka takes over! So, if you reach out, she will be the one chatting with ya!

Hiring Becka was the best decision we could have made for our wedding! She took care of every detail and was so easy to work with. The way she made us feel so at peace throughout the process of wedding planning was so unique and special. During pictures, she made the experience so personal and fun we barely felt like we were posing. Our pictures turned out better than we ever could have expected! She is so talented! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding photographer and already have to so many people!

Warm, and emotive portraits showcasing authenticity is my first priority. I'm here not only to capture your precious moments but to be right by your side through such large life events. I'm based in Lake County, Illinois, and yes I love to travel! If you want me to photograph your story, it will require a travel fee, depending on where it takes place. But no worries, I always try to find the cheapest way to come.

Kailee Rei Photography was an exceptional choice for our wedding photographer. Kailee was prompt, kind, and calm in all of our communications leading up to the big day, putting us at ease through the planning process. On the wedding day itself, she impressed even my husband, who doesn't normally like having his photo taken. Kailee gave clear direction for portraits and efficiently wrangled our large groups for family photos, helping keep the day running smoothly. The quality of Kailee's work is simply amazing - we've received so many compliments on our wedding photos, which perfectly captured the joy and special moments of our celebration. We felt the exceptional images we received were well worth the value. I would highly recommend Kailee Rei Photography to any couple looking for a talented, professional wedding photographer.

Pedro and his team did a FANTASTIC job with our wedding photos and they were an absolute joy to work with!! This started while planning for the wedding as Pedro was very flexible in setting up meetings where we discussed logistics and specific pictures we wanted captured the day of. He also recommended the Fragrance Garden at the Morton Arboretum for wedding photos, which turned out beautifully. On the day of the wedding, Pedro and his team were very thorough and captured all of the special moments of the day! They were positive, professional, and efficient in capturing photos for our large bridal party and family. Going with Albany Capture for our wedding photos was, without a doubt, one of the best decisions we made for the wedding.
