I did everything I can to get as much information needed from Insta Selfie before booking and I can honestly say they were amazing at it. Answered every question I had, even met up with us to discuss package. Provide us with everything the package came with and honestly there service was very good. Arrived at a perfect time. Everyone at the party loved the photo booth section. Attendants were very nice too. Didn't give us any problem. Don't hesitate to book them. I can assure they do a great job with great prices. I will keep booking them for future events. Thank you Insta Selfie for adding that extra prop for our event.

I highly recommend hiring Cindy Fandl as your photographer…read more Cindy is a kind & wonderful human being who is a joy to spend time with & on top of that she is an incredible artist & photographer. We hired Cindy for our engagement photos + our June 2020 wedding & then postponed to July of 2021. Navigating rescheduling our wedding during the pandemic was not ideal, to say the least. However, Cindy made changing our date easy and she was compassionate, understanding & empathetic throughout the process. We were beyond grateful for her support during that difficult time. On our wedding day, Cindy and her second-shooter Danyel were simply amazing. They made us feel comfortable, beautiful, deserving and supported every step of the way. Neither my husband or I love to be the center of attention, but being in-front of Cindy's camera was never awkward - she truly made us feel stunning & so at ease. We honestly had so much fun!! We are absolutely in love with our wedding photos. Cindy captured every special moment + all of our loved ones beautifully. We truly just got to enjoy the day and had total faith that Cindy was there to document it all. Everything from portraits of my husband and I, bridal party shots, detail items, to candid moments with our family and friends is documented beautifully. She didn't miss a single thing! We will truly cherish these photos forever. We feel beyond blessed that we were able to have Cindy as our photographer. The end result is nothing short of magical. Cindy has my highest recommendation.

I don't even know where to start with the gratitude, appreciation and admiration for the work of…read moreCindy Fandl Photography. I reached out to Cindy in early 2020. We all know how that year turned out. It was an especially challenging time to get married. Cindy was there for us from the beginning. We had several changes with the ceremony site, reception, etc... Cindy was so calm and her reassurance meant the world to us. Our wedding day was perfect! Cindy was there early to capture getting ready and she was with us when we left the reception. Her assistant Monique was delightful. They worked together like a well oiled machine. You can see the team work in her photos. Cindy will hold a special place in our hearts forever. Your wedding day has the most loving and intimate moments. She respected our privacy yet still present. Our pictures, the slideshow and album are beautiful beyond words. Thank you Cindy

I can't say enough good things about Greenkey Photography. It's been almost a year since our…read morewedding and I have *not once* thought, "I wish we had done that with the photographs" or "I wish my photos would have such-and-such". I would not change one thing. We worked with Kieffer and he was professional, calming, and inspiring every single time we met. We were on the fence about an engagement photo session. He recommended it so that we would get used to having someone in our faces with a camera. At first, never having worked with a professional photographer, that maybe it was just a nudge to an upsell. But it was included in the package we selected and it really worked!! My camera-shy wife was so much more comfortable on our wedding day because of it. Green Key came up with the theme for our engagement photos and they turned out so well! We still go back and look at the album. Kieffer also suggested making a photo book of our engagement photos with white space and using it as our guest book. It was such a great idea and everyone loved it! The wedding day was unbelievable. He took care of everything imaginable. There were fun pictures that I didn't even notice him taking, and he captured some moments that I will remember forever. Looking back at our photos helped me recapture some things too, because the day does go by so fast! I wanted some funny face pictures with my young nephews (because we always do them at every holiday) and he was totally up for it! Nothing threw him, he got all the pictures of my...difficult...family members, and made it all work. And of course, price. The value was amazing. We compared him with other photographers and the price compared to what we got was substantially different than other photographers. Sometimes you worry about it when you get a good deal but not here. He was genuinely well priced for an amazing talent. I could go on and on about Kieffer from Greenkey Photography. I'd hire him again in a heartbeat.

Greenkey DJ and DJ Nick Laudadio are TOP NOTCH. From the initial meeting all the way to the final…read moresong of the wedding, Nick was extremely easy to work with. Planning a wedding can be stressful, and the music can be one of the biggest stressor since it sets the mood for the reception. However, Nick's experience and knowledge helped to set us at ease. Nick is very adaptable and can give you as much or as little help as you require. We sat with Nick and we gave him an idea of the type of bands and music that we liked. From there he was able to start to create a playlist that he would use. After he shared the playlist with us, I could tell that he had a pretty good idea of what we like and it was clear he paid attention to what we discussed to create a solid playlist. Next, I worked with him to to give him a few other ideas of some songs/moods we would like to add to enhance what he had already done. The more information you share with him, the better things get. He is excellent at zeroing in on the information you give him to personalize the music to your taste. However, if you wanted to be a little more hands off, there is no doubt he can take care of you too. Like I said, even with a minimal amount of input he was well on his way to creating an awesome playlist that still would have been great. No matter what you want, Nick will be able to work with you to make sure that your reception will reflect you! Our whole reception was awesome, and I actually had multiple guest tell me during the event that they loved the music! It doesn't get much better than that! Give Nick a call, he will take good care of you!

We purchased a Living Social deal for a photo shoot with Sarah Jane. It was a one hour shoot and…read moreshe took about 90 pictures, in her studio with a backdrop. There were a set number of pictures we could choose from those 90, and then an additional fee for other ones we wanted, but the best part is that she signed a release for us to own the negatives and mailed us the photos on a disc, so now we can print them for $0.11 each at Walgreens! She was friendly and professional, and the pictures look good. She did send us an extra disc with the ones we had selected with some photoshopping, but it was mainly color effects, like sepia and black and white, rather than cleaning up tan lines or stray hairs, which would have been nice. Still, an awesome deal and she's done lots of kinds of photos, from maternity to kids to author photos, etc.

I can't say enough about Sarah and her team. The level of professionalism and connections they have…read moreare unprecedented.

As a small business owner who overthinks everything, choosing the right brand photographer felt…read morelike a big decision. I wanted someone who could do more than just take "nice" pictures--I needed someone who could capture the heart of my business. From the moment we started working together, Jola made the entire process feel effortless. She was incredibly easy to work with--professional, calm, and collaborative--but what stood out most was her eye for detail. Every angle, every bit of lighting, every backdrop felt intentional and aligned with my brand story. She didn't just show up with a camera--she showed up with curiosity, creativity, and care. Somehow, through her lens, she brought my work to life in a way I didn't even know was possible. The photos feel like me--not just what I do, but why I do it. If you're a thoughtful (maybe even perfectionist!) business owner like me, trust me when I say: you want someone like Jola in your corner. Her attention to nuance and ability to translate the soul of your brand into stunning visuals is a rare gift. I couldn't be happier with the results.

First and foremost, Victor (our photographer) and Matt (videographer) were amazing. They did a…read moregreat job capturing our special day and if I'm rating them, they get all the stars. The company itself and the manager, Frank, are a different story. We found ConceptOne Photography at a bridal expo that we attended sometime in the Spring/Summer of 2021. Our wedding was October 2022. So we were looking for vendors with plenty of time to make things as less stressful as possible. Out of all the photographers and studios we spoke to, we really liked ConceptOne. It was within budget and offered different services depending on the package you chose. We chose a package that included the engagement shoot and Photo Booth. We also paid for video service that was supposed to have a YouTube link with our wedding video to share with friends and family. We never got that link. We only received our video on a USB drive and it was only after so many emails and calls requesting our video. Our wedding was on October 1st of 2022. We got our wedding albums in the mail, June 8th 2023. Eight whole months after our wedding. Back in March 2023, we were told via email by Sara from ConceptOne, that it would take 4-6 weeks for us to receive our albums in the mail. Eight months is way past the 4-6 weeks that we were told. When I asked for updates, I wouldn't get responses for days and the last email I sent requesting an update went completely unanswered. There were countless phone calls from me and my husband to Frank, the manager. We had left voicemails, and it got to the point where Frank wasn't calling me back, but only calling my husband back. We felt that Frank was giving us the run-around and avoiding us. This is supposed to be a 4-5 star company. If you're so overwhelmed with clients, stop overlapping clients or hire more people. That's not an excuse for you to ignore clients. Frank never ignored our calls when we still had a balance owed, but the second services were paid off, radio silence. It almost made us feel like we got scammed which is not a feeling we want to associate with our wedding day.

As an ex model who has spent a lot of time in front of the camera, I really appreciate a photographer who knows how to make someone feel comfortable. Not everyone has that. Alaina, and I met in a neighborhood website, through which I was looking for volunteers for a non-profit I'm on the board of. Not only did she volunteer to help with a feeding program I'm creating in Chicago, but I came to find she was a photographer and just happened to need new headshots for our website. It was an absolute pleasure to meet her, and do my headshots with her. I'm so happy with my shots, and highly recommend her. She's talented at what she does, and has an amazing comforting, personable personality. Thanks so much Alaina! I look forward to connecting again soon!

Truly, I do. We looked at so many people/companies and nothing moved me. I liken your work to romance meets Vanity Fair. Also, you ROCK! We love you. You are so sweet. I felt so comfortable with you the instant we met; you are very approachable and friendly as well as professional all at the same time. I have to say, and anyone I know will agree, I HATE pictures of myself. HATE THEM. You helped me pose while making me feel confident and sexy.

I was looking for someone to take family pictures and I didn't want the standard posed studio photos.

Usually it takes my son a while to warm up to new people but he was following Melissa around within minutes. Babies grow up so fast and thanks to Melissa, I'll always have beautiful memories of them at this age. She is now our official family photographer!
