Eljay and Jennifer were absolutely amazing to capture my small civil wedding ceremony before my bigger wedding in Mexico. Not only were they so lovely and professional, but I love every picture. I had reached out months beforehand, and didn't end up committing until the week before. Eljay was extremely patient and understanding with me. I love these photos and working with them, I plan on hiring them for many more events in the future.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Eljay for our engagement photos, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the very beginning, Eljay made us feel comfortable, creating a fun, relaxed atmosphere that allowed our true personalities and love for each other to shine through. Eljay’s creativity and attention to detail are truly unmatched. He guided us through poses while also capturing candid moments that felt authentic and heartfelt. The final photos were beyond stunning—every shot was beautifully composed, with perfect lighting and incredible emotion. Thank you, Eljay, for creating memories we’ll cherish forever!

Hiring Eljay to capture our intimate wedding ceremony was the best decision. Him and his wife were kind and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. He was flexible to our timeline, budget and vision. Thank you Eljay for capturing our event so beautifully and magically! I’m so happy with the quality of the photos and how he captured the emotion of the day.

We had a wonderful engagement photo-shooting with Jenifer and Eljay. They’re extremely professional and yet super friendly, want to make your special day memorizable. My fiancé and I are super glad we worked with them. They also prepared the photos in a short time, high quality photos. They guided us in picking the locations and spots at downtown chicago. Thanks a million guys for such a stunning work that you did. Will definitely reach out for other occasions😍
