We had to pay to retake our photos at Holy Name and the Drake. She claimed the church told her she couldn't take pictures. They said it wasn't true. I had special monogrammed desserts at our rehearsal dinner and we got zero pictures of the monograms. Many of my friends had videos or images where she was just standing around. It's honestly very sad because it was the most important day of our lives. She refused to refund us and then was mad so didn't give us a wedding album. We did, however, like how our wedding video. You can see her professionalism below as she posted our private picture link below which includes minors.

We've been lucky to have Maija capture our family photos for the past six years, ever since our…read morechild was a newborn. Every session--whether it's been a milestone moment or one of those "off" days where the kids aren't exactly in the mood--she somehow manages to find the magic and capture the heart of our family perfectly. Maija has a gift for making everyone feel comfortable and even a nervous mom who wants things to go"perfect" and just doing this is perfect in its own right. The images are timeless, full of genuine emotion, and beautifully composed. These photos have become some of our most treasured memories, and we can't imagine anyone else documenting our family's story as beautifully. We couldn't recommend Maija more highly--for families, children, or anyone wanting authentic, heartfelt photography. -Jill

We recently finished a fall color family photo session with Maija. The photo shooting experience…read morewas smooth, relaxing, and filled with laughters. The preview gallery was terrific - there's not a single photo that we don't like. Can't wait to see the final edits! Before the photo session, Maija made several great recommendations of the locations based on the types of looks I'm looking for. During the photo session, she suggested different things we can do and made our 13mo giggles a lot, despite the fact he wasn't feeling great since that morning. After the photo session, she quickly put together a preview gallery for us to look at. Another plus is the fee structure she has. It was broken into two parts - a session fee and image & print package. I really like the idea that I can choose the amount of prints after I see the preview gallery. Of course we purchased the whole package since everything was perfect.

So my wife and I were looking last year for the perfect photographer since coming from New Jersey…read morewe had worked with one for several years and he did an amazing job with our Wedding, Engagement photo, infant photos and etc. In fact, we were just going to fly our old photographer into Chicago for our Baby's 1st Birthday Party because we trusted our photographer in NJ. If anyone knows me - I am extremely particular in who I work with and the type of product I want (only the best) since you are spending hundreds and literally thousands of dollars so you want to make sure the end product is what you pay for! Usually, it is customary for the Korean's 1st Bday to have great photos! These are memories that will last a lifetime and you want a great photographer to work with! So this is an investment we were worth spending some money on. Moving to Chicago I was bit nervous working with a new photographer since I am very particular and want someone that will capture the right moments! In fact it's very hard! We wanted someone who understood our needs and the design element ideas that would capture that perfect moment! Luckily after 7 calls with various different photographers around the Chicago land area we were glad we found Studio Soo Chicago Baby! He was the only a few who actually responded timely, flexible with scheduling and accommodating! Soo does an amazing job with trying to get shots that we are looking for - see below some of his fabulous work! We also went with their photo booth at the Birthday party since Soo was very accommodating and upgrading things we didn't even think we wanted! While the overall cost was a bit more than what we wanted to spend I look at these things as an investment! Overall, if you are looking for great baby photographer -Chicago Baby is the best in Chicago! If you are looking at photographers who can create and take amazing shots- Chicago baby is the best around here! Moving forward this is the only studio that I would do business with since I trust not only their product, but I know Soo is flexible, transparent with pricing and easy to work with!! I absolutely recommend this studio - See the photos and the type of professional quality you get!

We love their studio photography concepts - elegant, yet simple to keep the focus on the couple. Soo and his team are a pleasure to work with, and went generously beyond what we expected. Soo knows all the poses and angles that will make you looking your best. Thank you Studio Soo! We can't wait to be back for Studio Soo Chicago Baby if we are so blessed to have kids. As a background, we were initially thinking to go to Korea like many Korean couples do, but with the COVID quarantine over there, that wasn't going to happen. We were willing to travel to places in the US like LA and NYC that try to emulate the Korean style, but didn't find one that we really liked. We were so surprised to find out about Studio Soo right in our city of Chicago!

Rachel met us at North Pond promptly and took into account both me and my husband's likes for our photo shoot. I did both an outdoor photo shoot and an in studio session all in one-day. i couldn't decide between the two and I do not regret it at all - they all turned out so gorgeous! Rachel was professional, friendly, patient and warm - which I believe lead to amazing photos. I 100% recommend Yofi Photography and I will be booking them for more family shoots to come :).

They make the entire session feel so natural and comfortable. Vlad did our first daughter's newborn photos and Rachel did our second child's newborn photos and the entire process was seamless. As you can imagine, it is extremely challenging to get any sort of photos with an 18 month old and a newborn, and Rachel was able to work her magic and capture the most beautiful photos of our family! They turned out absolutely perfect and we will cherish these memories forever. We are beyond grateful and can't wait to have them photograph our family for years to come! Thank you Rachel and Vlad!!

The big windows at the front were great and allowed a lot of light in, and I loved the little rooms that we used as a bar / storage area. The kitchen was well stocked and though we brought in most of the stuff we needed, it was great to have backup serving utensils and dishes. Pretty much anything you would need to cook, serve, or clean was available for use. I would definitely recommend this event space, especially if you are expecting 20-50 people.
