“Cling and Peck made our wedding day feel like a beautiful adventure. We got married at a forest preserve in the middle of nowhere and they had scouted out several great spots for photos beforehand so that we didn't have to waste time looking around. They also listened to what we were looking for as far as style, specific photos, etc. and delivered exactly what we wanted, and more! Their artistic eye and perfect setup of shots gave the photos the perfect woodland fairytale wedding vibes. Group shots were well directed and easy to manage, unlike many family photo attempts I had experienced in the past. They also ingratiated themselves easily with the wedding guests so that their photos/videos during the reception were barely noticed. They just seemed like another person having fun on the dance floor capturing the whole thing. Would definitely recommend them for all aspects of their wedding photography.”

This is the driving factor behind my “why” and where my passion for photography and the wedding industry takes root.

“This was our second time working with Ashley. The first was for our wedding back in 2022. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and again! Her energetic and sweet personality made us feel comfortable to be silly and relaxed while posing. She was great with our toddler and dog as well! Ashley was able to capture beautiful posed photos and also the chaotic, yet everyday moments of chasing a toddler around. The end result were beautiful photos that captured who we are as a family.

I’m a photographer who genuinely loves people and the art of storytelling. I don’t just show up with a camera—I show up as your biggest fan and your calm in the chaos. On your day, I’m fully in your corner, cheering you on, keeping things light, and making sure you feel comfortable being you. I believe the best photos come from real connection, laughter, and those in-between moments you didn’t even realize were happening. I’m known for being super funny, easygoing, and great at bringing out natural smiles—because if you’re having fun, the photos will feel like you.

“5 stars is not enough for Michelle!!! We spent a lot of time searching for a photographer because of how important it is to look back at your photos since the day is such a blur. We are beyond grateful we trusted Michelle with this. She’s not only incredibly fun, but she is extremely professional and knows exactly what she is doing and how to pose us for photos that are unrecognizable. Both my husband and I consider ourselves to be “awkward” and we could not even believe the photos she was capturing for us. Even on our wedding day she was so excited to share some of the photos to my phone that she was taking during the day. It made me so excited and so proud to show our family what she was doing behind the camera and how incredible our photographer was. So many people were so jealous as they did not get the same type of privilege on their wedding day. She is worth EVERY penny we spent and we can’t stop looking at the photos she captured for us as we re-live our day with so much happiness!!! She is the best and we will continue to trust her with all of our photos going forward!”

I loved her energy and excitement for us and the process from just getting to know us over the phone, to working together in person. We weren’t going to do an engagement shoot, but as time went on we started getting FOMO and asked Abby if she could accommodate it last minute. She made it happen and the pictures were amazing!! It got us so so pumped for the wedding day. She posed us when needed but also stepped away at just the right moments to capture sweet candid moments.

Documentary Wedding Photography for Couples Who Value Real Moments: A wedding isn't a photoshoot. It's a day filled with moments that will never happen again—a nervous smile before the ceremony, your dad's expression as he sees you for the first time, the hug from your grandmother that lasts just a little longer than expected. Those moments can't be staged, repeated, or recreated. That's why I photograph weddings the way I do.

Hi, friend! I’m Devin, a wedding and portrait photographer based in Lombard, Illinois. I serve Chicago and the surrounding suburbs, Milwaukee, Rockford, and I’m always up for an adventure. I absolutely love celebrating with my couples on one of the best days of their lives! I’m always up for an adventure! I’ve never met a mountain that I didn’t like. I love my dogs (all dogs TBH), Leslie Knope, and the Great British Bake Off. I would love to hear about your story and your vision for your wedding day!

“My husband and I hired Devin for our 2021 wedding....after it had been postponed due to COVID - it was a stressful time! The absolute silver lining is that Devin was SUCH a good fit for our vibe: she put us at ease and took photos that were vibrant and fun (rather than tender and serious). She got to know us and photographed us "as we wanted to be seen." The other component of this is that when we received our wedding (and engagement) photos, they were all excellent. I am CERTAIN that Devin had to cull through a bunch of awkward shots....but the ones she sent made me feel super attractive always. Excellent judgement on her part! Reviewing our wedding photos let us relive the day - it captured not only the visuals but the *feel* of the day. Since then, I've also hired Devin to shoot musician headshots for me, with the same experience. I would hire her again with enthusiasm!”
