I honestly wish I could give zero stars. We paid $1,500 for wedding videography, and the final product was extremely disappointing. The video quality was poor (not 4K as expected), very shaky (the camera was even dropped multiple times), and important moments were completely missed -- including our ceremony exit and key reception introductions. The ceremony itself was filmed from behind guests, so you can barely see or hear anything. The audio was also unacceptable. We were promised professional sound, yet my dad's speech had music playing over it, and even overlapped with my father-daughter dance song -- completely ruining those moments. The photography was not much better. Edits were inconsistent, coloring was off, and basic retouching was missed. We also noticed missing photos from moments we know were captured, including pictures with family during dinner. Communication throughout the process was poor. Emails went unanswered for weeks, and when I followed up, I was told it was their "busy season." When I reached out about missing photos, the response was dismissive and unprofessional. Overall, this experience did not reflect what was promised or what we paid for. I would not recommend their services. read more

It's been two months since our wedding, and our family and friends are still talking about our photographs. WS Photography is an amazing vendor. Our pictures captured the day so well, including the moments we didn't get to see. Our wedding album looks like it's out of Vogue and we are so glad we went with Milan Lazic and his team. We wouldn't change a thing. They are worth every penny!!! read more

As soon as I saw the photo samples by WS Photography I knew I wanted to hire them to photograph my wedding. I was ecstatic for the high quality of photos for the price. Every correspondence that I had with WS Photography and Ana was a positive one, they were extremely professional, responsive, knowledgeable and helped me organize my day of schedule which helped reduce wedding planning stress. Milan was our photographer and we could not be happier with the quality of photos we received and that professionalism and creativity that he and the team exhibited on our wedding day. I love that they give you the rights to all photos and make it easy to share with family and friends. read more

My wife and I got married in October in Downton Chicago and WS Photography was simply amazing! Milan and his wife were great meeting us before the wedding to plan, were organized and assertive the day of the wedding and the sneak peek of pictures they sent were amazing! I would recommend ANYONE getting married in Chicago to use WS Photography. read more

Milan, Tamara, and Ana were an absolute dream to work with, and the photos they captured for our engagement session and wedding were stunning! Our expectations were exceeded in every regard with them. They take truly beautiful, thoughtful, personal, artistic photos, and do it with an efficiency and level of professionalism that should be the gold standard for any wedding photographer. For both our engagement session and our wedding, Milan and Tamara thoroughly scouted out all the locations we gave them, meticulously planning each shot in advance so that when the time came not a single moment was wasted, and every shot was spot-on. And yet, somehow, we never felt rushed or uncomfortable even for a moment. It was an incredible relief to know that we could trust our photographers 100% and we didn't need to worry about anything on the big day. When we first received our engagement photos, my then-fiancé and I were floored. They so far surpassed what we were expecting in terms of artistry, technical skill, and overall quality that I could hardly believe these were photos of us! For our wedding photos, we knew now the level of quality to expect, but we were still thrilled when we finally saw them. Every shot was frame-worthy, and our friends and family (many of whom are photographers and videographers themselves) were all seriously impressed. On top of all of this, Milan, Ana, and Tamara are the nicest people. I can't recommend them enough! read more

We absolutely loved working with Ana, Milan & Team. They were so professional and artistic with their photos. All our photos are so unique to us and our locations. They truly went the extra mile to get the perfect shot... Milan even laid in the middle of State street for a shot for us :). They were easily our favorite and most valuable vendor we worked with for our wedding. You always look back at photos, and our photos are timeless and beautiful. I fully recommend WS Photography if you're looking for a top notch photographer. Bonus: We got some absolutely BEAUTIFUL shots of our 1 year old daughter, and neice/nephew; they were so great with kids! read more

We are absolutely blown away by Milan and his team. Milan's incredible attention to light, reflection, personality, affection, and moment led to the most gorgeous photos and memories. If you've landed on WS photography's website, do not go any further in your search! You've found a true gem of skill and professionalism. We are so blessed and grateful. read more

If you do anything I say for your wedding, let it be this - book WS Photography! They are absolutely incredible, and our photos are genuinely gorgeous. I was wowed by the photos on their site and they brought that same level of professional artistic quality to my engagement and wedding photos. Most wedding photographer websites I checked were normal boring wedding photos, but these stood out from the pack. Don't you want your wedding photos to stand out from the pack too? During the wedding itself, they were very unobtrusive while still getting exactly the shots we needed and wanted. Afterwards, they sent us the photos online as well as sending us a flash drive in a beautiful box with our names engraved on it. I love every photo they took! read more

Milan and Jelena are absolutely amazing! It all started with the engagement photos. They took a location which we didn't really care for (Millennium Park) and made every photo look like masterpieces! Milan is an absolute artist. When our wedding came, we were so excited for Milan and Jelena to be there based on our experience from the engagement photos. They did not disappoint. They captured all of the best moments of our wedding and showed all of our emotions. The package they sent us that contained our wedding photos was completely adorable. I highly recommend WS Photography and will use them again if the occasion calls for it. When you do get their services, just trust Milan. He knows exactly what he's doing. read more

I am so glad we chose WS Photography to shoot our wedding. From our first meeting with Ana, through to the final preparation and, of course, the wedding itself, the whole team was friendly, courteous, and professional. And, presumably of utmost concern, they take fantastic photographs. We immediately had feeling of comfort in working with Ana. This feeling was confirmed when we met our day of photography team of Milan, Tamara, and Jelena. On a hot summer June day when we were reluctant to stay outside in the heat for any longer than necessary, each of the photographers were politely persistent in encouraging us to stay outside to get the shots that, in the long term, we will be immensely grateful to have (even if, in the short term, we were uncomfortable). While we are waiting on the final set of photographs to come through, we have been thoroughly impressed with the sample of photographs that we have seen. Our overall experience with WS Photography has been excellent. We recommend them without reservation. read more

I am so happy I went with WS Photography. Ana, the wedding coordinator was so helpful and easy to work with. She provided suggested locations and helped plan my big day! Most importantly, my photos turned out beautifully. Milan is extremely talented and creative. His assistants were also very friendly and professional. I was so happy with the outcome and would recommend to anyone! read more

We used WS Photography for our wedding and could not be any happier with our decision. Milan and his team did an AMAZING job with our photos and went the extra mile to ensure that we had the best shots possible. We were not sure where we wanted to do our wedding photos and they went out and found a beautiful spot in the area we were getting married (we did not know the area at all). They had scouted beforehand and found several options for us and worked hard (at one point Milan physically lifted his second photographer) to get the perfect photos. During the reception, they were everywhere and nowhere (they got all the shots but were never in the forefront of the wedding/reception). All of our guests noted just how hard the two of them worked. Even more impressive, we received a sneak peak of some photos just two days after the wedding and then our full set of photos much earlier than our contract stated. The quality was outstanding and the lighting (our venue was a bit dark so we were worried) was perfect - they knew how to work in so many different environments. Overall, if you are looking for a photographer that will get the job done - WS is certainly who you should go with! read more

The WS Photography team is incredible at what they do. We booked them for both our engagement photos and the wedding itself, and everything turned out amazingly. They are extremely easy to work with throughout the entire process, and have an unbelievable eye for beauty. Not to mention they are very kind and fun people to hang out with during photo shoots. During the wedding, they helped keep everything on schedule, assisted with transportation, and were always ready to capture every special moment. I would highly recommend them to anyone. read more

WS Photography - WOW, just wow! Milan, Ana and Jelena are three incredible people to work with and I am so happy we had them for our engagement and wedding photos. They truly have a magical gift of capturing and producing your moments. Their type of photography is such an art and it was exactly what I was looking for in choosing a photographer. I am so grateful that I found them. Words alone are not enough to show my appreciation for their exquisite talent. I had a wonderful experience working with WS Photography and I would highly recommend them to any couple looking for wedding photographers. We had a late engagement session since I had braces until a month before our wedding and they were so quick to turn around and send us photos a week later so we could use some at our wedding. I didn't ask for that but they surprised me with that kind gesture. We had so much fun at our wedding with them by our side. I gave them the biggest hugs at the end of the night. We just received our wedding photos and we could not be any more happier. It was incredible to live our day again as we viewed these photos. These are treasured moments my husband, family and I will have forever, so thank you, thank you and thank you! We are so excited to see the wedding album once it is done. It was such a pleasure to have you be a part of these chapters in our lives. They have a great team and an excellent business. I wish them the best on their growth in Chicago! Your team is truly special! read more

Working with WS Photography for our wedding was a no brainer! Photography was at the top of our list of priorities and it was the first vendor we sought out to book once we had a date and venue set. There were an overwhelming number of photographers in the Chicago and finding the perfect one wasn't easy. Once we realized we wanted to go the more artistic candid route, we found that most photographers that did it well were extremely expensive and the cheaper options had a less than appealing portfolio. After meeting with Ana, we were able to customize a package that fit our needs and budget, WS was so flexible and accommodating. Milan and his team's style covered every aspect of our day without being in your face or taking our attention away from the enjoying our special day. Within just days of our wedding, we received a preview of several edited photos. We were pleasantly surprised at how quickly the team was able to turn around our full album so we could share them with family and friends who were beyond impressed (as were we)! read more
