She was also in training to take photos and did a fantastic job with making sure that each picture that she took came out perfect. The photographer that I had was absolutely unbelievable, made you feel like you are the sexiest woman alive. I can't put it into words how amazing and comfortable I was in lingerie in front of two women that were gorgeous. I also had the opportunity to speak with Jenny Taylor, owner of the company, and I have to say it was one of the best conversations I've had with an owner of a company in a very long time. She has an amazing business and cares about her customers and will go out of her way to make sure you are happy, thank you again for the amazing experience and for the amazing staff that you have

I wanted to do something special for my husband's 50th birthday. I decided to try this! First of…read moreall...I have struggled with my body image for my whole life. I have PCOS and it affects my weight(185#) and weird hair growth. I have anxiety which has caused other problems. I NEVER thought I could do something like this. Just talking to the lady to schedule the appointment was terrifying but she made me feel comfortable. Trying to walk into the building the day of the appointment was a whole other challenge. I talked myself into it and made it in through the door. I was greeted by the most kind women that assured me it would be a great expierience. One thing that helped was to know that they all had to expierience this when getting hired. They all know the feelings I was feeling that day. My make up was beautiful. I'd wear make up all the time if I could make it look like that! Then came time to take "it" all off somehow I did that, too! Once they started taking pictures it was so easy! She told me where to go, how to pose, where to put my had/arm etc etc. I couldn't believe how comfortable I was wearing nearly nothing! I ended up purchasing all of the photos at the end on a drive. Was it expensive...well yeah. They work hard! Was it worth it...100%. My husband's reaction was priceless. 1st thing he said was that he's always seen these on facebook but never thought I would do that. For his 30th birthday I had surprised him with a trip to his first michigan game and bought him an authentic jersey. I wore that jersey for part of the photo shoot. I also took a few other photos in a bralette and panties. My advise...if you ever thought this would be neat but not sure if you could then just do it!!

I had an excellent time at my session! Like many people on here, I was a little nervous but…read moreeveryone was so friendly and welcoming that I got over that pretty quickly. The champagne helped too! ;-) Once we got into the shoot I never felt self conscious at all. Paula did my makeup perfectly! It's the first time I've worn full makeup since my wedding over 4 years ago, and it turned out lovely. I usually don't feel sexy but I did during this photo shoot. My husband loved the book and the app. I highly recommend this and I would definitely go back!

I was really nervous going…read moreinto the day, but Angela and the team instantly calmed my nerves, and I left the studio feeling so confident. I felt so awkward posing initially, but I got tons of good direction and my photos look so amazing that I want them all. What might be even more impressive than how awesome the staff was, is how fast I received my images. I went in this past Thursday morning, and I had a link to my gallery by Saturday morning. This whole experience was worth every penny. Don't look anywhere else to get boudoir photos done.

After my own fabulous friends treated me to my own photo shoot for my bachelorette party, I knew I…read morehad to pay this favor forward. One youswoop later, and a bachelorette gift for my lovely lady friend was set up. Julie is very easy to work with with respect to setting up the appointment. We communicated very well over email, and she answered any and all questions (without giving me the "duh, read my website response" because I later realized that I could've figured this info out on my own.) We set up the appointment at a chic hotel downtown, and were ready. Day of shoot, Julie arrived, and got straight to work. She is great at giving directions, which is really important to make you look the very best in your shoot. She also makes you feel completely at ease, again critical when you're running around in your unmentionables (and your friends are shrieking, "MORE SIDE BOOB.") Some notes: -She can accommodate hair/makeup. I recommend either going through her or having this done. It really adds to the experience and sets you off feeling pretty. -Have a trusted girlfriend or three around to make you feel at ease. I think our commentary really relaxed and helped our friend. (Plus, see above...side boob was critical for some of the photos. We were HELPING.) -Champagne doesn't hurt either. -Make your bed. (Or do as we did, have it in a sexy hotel that will make the bed FOR you.) If you have any interest in having this done, I can't recommend it enough. Julie is just a peach of a gal, and her photos are FABULOUS.

One of my wonderful bridesmaids treated me to a boudoir shoot as her bachelorette gift to me, and…read moreI'm so glad she did because I never would have done it on my own. Julie was fantastic to work with and gave such great direction so you don't feel like an idiot as she's putting you in the most flattering poses for your pictures. I had all three of my bridesmaids with me which definitely helped make me extremely comfortable with the session. That, combined with a few mimosas, really relaxed me, especially as my friends were encouraging me that the pics were amazing while at the same time hilariously directing me to show more boob and booty. One of my other bridesmaids treated me to hair and makeup separately, and after seeing the pictures I'm glad I did it, it makes a big difference. If you want a fun experience that will capture some really hot photos of you, that, lets be honest--you will never really have a chance to get unless you're a model and are used to prancing around a bedroom getting pics taken of you in lingerie, then I suggest you use Chicago Doll Photography. You'll be happy you did!!

Choosing our wedding photographer was one of the most important decisions we made for our big day,…read moreand we could not be happier with our choice! From the very beginning, Michelle was incredibly responsive and a joy to work with. She made the entire process so easy, always answering our questions quickly and following up with us to make sure we were on the same page. On the wedding day, Michelle was a true professional. She arrived early and was able to effortlessly handle the chaos of a large wedding party. Her ability to quickly and efficiently organize our family and friends for group photos was truly impressive, saving us so much time and stress. The final images are absolutely outstanding. The quality is breathtaking, and Michelle captured every single moment we could have wanted, and then some. We were amazed at how many beautiful photos we received; there were more than enough to perfectly tell the story of our day. Additionally, she captured unexpected (but flattering) moments of people in their natural states without anyone knowing it was being done! We are so grateful to have such incredible photos to remember our wedding by. Thank you for everything!

When my now husband and I began looking for a wedding photographer, we weren't sure where to start…read more Luckily, we discovered Michelle Lytle Photography because Michelle is a co-owner of the wedding venue we chose. We loved Michelle's photography style as we explored her website as she offers a mix of traditional posed photographs as well as unique perspectives. She described her approach as photo-journalistic. Michelle was able to work with us to find a package that fit our budget and captured the images we would cherish. On the day of the wedding, we met Michelle at the Lytle House (where we were dropping some items off) and she traveled with us by train to Loyola University Chicago to capture some photos of the two of us before heading back to the venue for family photos before the ceremony. At Loyola, we ran into an issue with one of our boutonnieres and -after catching the moment for posterity- Michelle helped us get it properly situated. We only spent about 20 minutes at Loyola, but Michelle was able to capture us in various poses, with a variety of backdrops as well as candid moments walking to and riding the train. We had about 30 minutes set aside for family photos and Michelle moved everyone around with a gentle command to capture all of the posed photos we listed in advance and some we hadn't thought of. Although our ceremony and reception were all in one location, Michelle expertly captured us from different angles and with different backgrounds to differentiate each moment. After family photos, Michelle took the two of us to a unique location under the 'L' tracks nearby to capture a few more couples shots. This served the dual purpose of getting us out of the venue as more guests arrived. During the ceremony, Michelle moved quickly and stealthy about capturing so many beautiful photos from various perspectives that when we received the photos later, it seemed like there must have been multiple photographers. After the ceremony, we had requested a photo of us with all of our friends and family, again Michelle was able to gently usher everyone together to capture a big group shot. After that, Michelle captured candid shots of our guests mingling, the table settings, and food truck set-up. Since we had only booked Michelle through cocktail hour, she found a moment as she wrapped up to congratulate us before ducking out. Michelle captured all of the key moments of the ceremony and cocktail hour but also had a deft eye for subtle details. For example, she snapped a close-up photo of the anklet my mother was wearing, which happened to be a gift my grandfather had given to my grandmother. It was small moments like these that brought a flood of emotions as we reviewed the photos online about 2.5 weeks after the ceremony. Michelle also sent a preview of her favorite shot the morning after the wedding, which was a great surprise on the way to our honeymoon. All of the photographs Michelle captured were processed beautifully in black and white and color and provided to us in an online gallery that is available to us forever. Michelle offers options to purchase photo books or prints, but also allows a limited number of downloads so you can do what you wish with the photos. Michelle was wonderful to work with and the images she captured will be treasured forever. The only "regret" we have is that we decided to save some money in our budget by not booking her through our entire reception, which is the only thing we would do differently. We highly recommend Michelle for all of your photographic needs.

I contacted them through their site and they responded right away. I really liked the way they listened to my ideas and created a mood board incorporating their vision. We scheduled a shoot for later that month. The shoot was very comfortable and an overall fun experience! Being my first photoshoot, I was instructed on how to pose for the pictures that suited my body type and persona. I was able to see a sneak peek of the photos as we were shooting them. I was surprised to receive my photos within two weeks since they had told me 4 weeks. I am in LOVE with my photos! The retouching of the photos was exactly suited to my aesthetic!

Her confidence behind the lens was very assuring. She was willing to take risks and I trusted that she would make me look my best. The shoot was a 30th birthday present to myself and my friend Jen and I had a great time being "models" for a day. We had wine and music to add to the fun. Chelsea was very accommodating with my many outfit and hairstyle changes. All in all I couldn't be happier with the quality of the shots. She definitely emphasizes quality and bringing your personality through in the shots. I've already recommended her to family and friends for personal pictures and professional head shots! Would use her again in a heartbeat.

My husband and I have been lucky enough to hire Chelsea several times for our photography needs…read more From LinkedIn profile shots to family Christmas cards, the quality of her work is consistently impressive. Aside from her warm, comfortable and professional approach, she has a creative flair which shows in the uniqueness and beauty of her final product. We have had some really unfortunate experiences with photographers in the past - notably when the person we hired for our wedding photographs "lost" them. As a result, we were somewhat skeptical about hiring a photographer again. However, Chelsea helped us to regain our confidence. Not only were we able to consult with her in advance about what we wanted but the experience of shooting was relaxed, enjoyable and in the comfort of our own home. Afterwards, we were able to access our beautifully edited photos through a secure gallery, not long after they were taken. On a personal level, Chelsea's passion for the quality of her work is tangible. She has an unparalleled attention to detail, flexibility and true interest in what you, the client, wants. She also had a wonderful ability to connect and photograph our 8 month old (which is never easy!). Her work is truly top of the market and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Emma was an enthusiastic cheerleader and supporter to us along our wedding planning journey. Emma is very responsive, enthusiastic, detailed and creative, and helped us accomplish a fantastic wedding day.  Emma helped us identify creative ways to replan our wedding during COVID19, and was incredibly flexible as our plans changed multiple times. We ultimately were able to get married in a small ceremony at Starved Rock State Park in IL, and Emma went above and beyond and drove out there a few weeks before the wedding to scout out some beautiful spots for photos.  During our wedding day, we had photography services with Emma and videography services with her colleague Carlos. Their team helped us feel excited and confident throughout the whole wedding day. Emma's positivity and energy helped us have SO much fun during our photo sessions. Carlos was able to creatively capture video from the full day and we were so impressed by the sound and visual quality of the videos. Emma captured the colors, joy and essence of the day in her photos. Looking back at the photos and videos brings us and our families so much joy. Emma and Carlos sent us highlight photos and a highlight video in just a couple weeks (we paid extra for expedited delivery) , and then the full set of photos and the full video came to us a couple months later. We LOVED working with Emma and her team, and we definitely recommend her for anyone in the Chicago area. Well worth the money! P.S. Thank you to Emma's husband, Jeremy, who stepped in to be our wedding officiant at the last minute due to our plans changing during COVID19. Working with Emma and her team felt like we were working with family. Thank you!
