I’m a 36-year-old husband to Samantha, dad to Silas and Fiona, and servant to our extremely wiggly companion, Moxie. I’ve spent 12 years documenting 400+ weddings, but I don’t really see myself as just your photographer. I’m your best friend at your side who happens to have a camera, documenting your day on digital, film, and Super 8. I’m also a stay-at-home dad, philatelist (postage stamp collector, (lol), LEGO freak, craft beer nerd, camera collector, and owner of an orange refrigerator because apparently normal refrigerators weren’t weird enough for us, haha.

Awarded Best of Zola
“The quality of Erik's work as a photographer is unparalleled. He truly captured the "light, bright, airy" aesthetic that I loved when I first started researching different styles. He is highly detailed oriented which is a must for somebody like me who really notices all the little details. He went above and beyond by traveling to our engagement shooting location all the way in Madison, WI! When it came to shooting the big day, Erik orchestrated everything perfectly including calming me down during a stressful moment, making us all laugh, and capturing all the "good angles". From the first few photos I received, his work made me feel absolutely beautiful. When I shared with others, the first thing they commented was: "Wow, Your photographer KILLED it with the wedding photos!" Extremely high quality editing....Erik is worth every penny and I would highly recommend him to anyone!”

My goal is to help each couple have the best possible day, while capturing their memories in the most flattering and memorable way.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Bryson and I had the honor of working with Mary Rose for our wedding and we were so blessed by her partnership and her craft - not only did she get us previews less than 24h after the event itself, we had the full gallery one month later. And the photos were AMAZING. She captured the formal portraits and the unseen moments in the most tender way. Her presence is calming and encouraging; she is an expedient communicator leading up the event, extremely collaborative yet informative. We knew we were in good hands with a pro like Mary Rose. She is the confidant you want by your side no matter what curveballs the wedding day may throw or family dynamics may bring.. We knew we wanted to work with Mary Rose during our first consultation call, when she found a chicken egg in her pocket from her farm, because she is just that cool. And to this day and for years and years to come, we cherish the photos that she was able to capture. It is an honor to work with Mary Rose and I suggest you do the same!”

From the beginning, Ash made us beyond comfortable at our engagement shoot (it was our first time ever taking professional photos) AND we had a blast even though it was absolutely freezing that day. During one of the most stressful times of my life planning the wedding, she was the most amazing support, giving the best advice and sweetest comfort throughout the wedding process. Ashley helped make our wedding day go by so smoothly, helped calm my nerves with her warm presence and did an AMAZING job with our photos. She helped capture the most beautiful parts of our day and was so determined to get rainbow pics that we were so lucky to have. Ash was not only the best wedding photographer and her work is beyond beautiful, but she's also become a close friend of mine.

Since day 1, Arleigh listened to my needs and worked with me to create the perfect package withing my budget. On our first meeting Arleigh was straightforward, communicated well, was professional and really made us feel so secure in our decisions.

On our wedding day, she documented the moments we wanted captured with an eye for detail that left us speechless, the photos are nothing short of perfection. Her work is truly one of a kind, and every image tells our story in a way we couldn't have imagined. Abby was a joy to work with throughout the entire process, bringing warmth, comfortability, and professionalism to every interaction. We can't recommend Wren and Rose Photography highly enough. Abby isn't just a photographer, she's a true artist and visionary. She has an incredible ability to take a moment and transform it into something that feels timeless, intentional, and full of emotion. Her editorial style is unlike anything we've seen: elegant, captivating, and effortlessly authentic. Every image tells a story, and somehow she captures not only how everything looked, but exactly how it felt. Looking through our gallery, we're still in awe. She didn't just document our wedding day, she turned it into a work of art that we'll cherish forever!! UGH SHE IS THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

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!

“Devin Hayman Photography was incredible to work with for our wedding! From the very beginning, Devin took the time to get to know us as a couple and understand what was most important to us on our big day. Her communication style was warm and personable, which immediately put us at ease. On the wedding day, Devin and her assistant captured every moment beautifully - from our posed family photos to the spontaneous moments like my brother dancing with his 6-year-old. Her work is simply a 12/10 on all levels. As a same-sex couple, we were a bit anxious about finding the right vendors, but Devin proved to be the perfect choice. We adore our engagement photos and are over the moon with how our wedding photos turned out. Devin is not only a supremely talented photographer, but an even better human being. We couldn't recommend her more highly!”

Your photos shouldn't just look good — they should feel like that day. I shoot candid and real, then shape the edit around it: deep contrast, muted distractions, and your story right front and center.

“Brady was an absolute pleasure to work with from our very first meeting. He photographed both our engagement session and our wedding, and he captured every moment exactly as we had envisioned. His professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail made us feel comfortable and confident throughout the entire process. We couldn't be happier with our photos or the incredible experience he provided. We highly recommend Brady to anyone looking for a talented photographer who truly brings your vision to life!”
