“We can not recommend IG PHOTO VIDEO INC enough. We had Tetyana and Egidijus as our photographers and Irad as our videographer. We also were in contact with Ivan. He was extremely communicative throughout the entire process. From introducing us to Tetyana, Egidijus and Irad, How the process would happen from start to finish to getting our photos and videos back. The photos and video blew us out of the water. We are so in awe of the work and quality they put into our day. They were truly the best to work with from start to finish. The only thing is we have so many pictures I can not choose a favorite. (But that's a great problem to have) They truly captured my husband and I in our photos and videos and we are so blessed we came across their page. This company is 100 percent worth the money and we wouldn't have changed a single thing. You guys were amazing in person and in your work!

What started out as a hobby, evolved into a great passion. With a camera on hand for every event, I spent my lunch money as a young kid developing films at the photo store. I became so fond of capturing as many organic moments as I can in photographs and fell in love with the idea of telling people's stories in images rather than words. I started venturing into professional photography right after my own wedding to my high school sweetheart, Erick, which was back in 2014. I LOVE everything wedding-related. My favorite to photographs are the wedding details, the bride and groom portraits and anything that will make me either cry or laugh!

Awarded Best of Zola
“We are forever grateful we chose Michelle as our wedding day photographer. From the planning to the wedding day she was prepared & made everything so easy. Our engagement photos & wedding photos are perfect and she captured our story just the way we envisioned even including our perfect puppy Maui. She made sure to get all the important shots day of wedding & went above and beyond the entire day making sure my husband and I didn’t don’t forget any important photos. We received our entire wedding gallery so quickly after the wedding. Michelle is beyond professional and truly makes sure your wedding is photographed just the way you want.”

I’m Gracelyn, the face behind the camera and someone who truly cares about the people in front of it. I picked up my first camera at 9 years old, photographing my siblings and creating little photoshoots just for fun. After rediscovering photography post-COVID, I instantly felt that same joy and knew this was my dream. I photographed my first wedding two years ago and am now stepping into my first full season. My style is light and airy, blending documentary storytelling with true-to-life portraits, capturing both meaningful details and emotional moments.

“Touch of Grace felt more than a professional wedding photographer. She felt like a friend throughout the whole process. We were very comfortable and she was very accommodating in every twist and turn that comes with a wedding. She even stayed extra time to capture our cake cutting! We gave her our images and she was able to quickly navigate between each one efficiently. What makes Touch of Grace so special is the final editing. We were taken back at the marvelous work and attention to detail. Thank you Grace for capturing our special day and giving us everlasting memories!”

“I can't even begin to describe how absolutely amazing and wonderful our experience was with Moira! When we first contacted Moira she called us to go over our questions, and her services, it was so nice to be able to have a conversation about what we wanted and what she would provide! In the time leading up to our engagement shoot, I had changed my mind on location multiple times and Moira was extremely understanding and helped my vision come to life! We took our engagement pictures at the public library where I met my (now) husband and even took some pictures in the rain at our favorite park! Moira worked thru the downpour and got some AMAZING shots! Leading up to our wedding we met with Moira to go over timeline and she helped to make sure we would have enough time allocated for everything we wanted. On our wedding day Moira was punctual and extremely amazing to work with! We had to move some things around timeline wise and it all worked out beautifully. Our pictures are absolutely INCREDIBLE. I'm obsessed with them and she captured our day perfectly.

She was very integral with our wedding day planning as she helped figure out what time sunset photos would be and when to start the ceremony based on this! On the Wedding day, Her and her second photographer communicated very well together and made us feel like models the entire day! They worked very well with our videographers which could have easily been chaotic! To our surprise, my husband and I received the sneak peeks 12 hours after our reception ended! They were stunning!

I've always loved taking pictures and for as long as I can remember, without even trying that hard. Everyone in my life was always telling me I take such perfect pictures, until one day I believed them. As an adult, it started with my own dogs: every Christmas I'd take their holiday pictures because they're cute and I had a camera. Somewhere along the way it became a real business. I'm in Kankakee, Illinois,, I'm easygoing and a little silly, and now I photograph weddings, families, maternity, and pets with a warm, unposed style that catches the little moments people actually keep. I'm small and I like it that way ! it means every session gets all of me, and your photos get treated like they matter, because they do.

“I cannot recommend Abby enough! She has photographed both me and my dogs, and every single time, she has gone above and beyond to make the experience so comfortable, fun, and genuinely enjoyable. She has such a talent for capturing the little moments and personalities that make each photo feel so special. She is also incredibly patient and wonderful with my dogs, which means so much to me! You can truly tell how much care and passion she puts into her work. The photos always turn out absolutely beautiful, and I’m so grateful to have these memories captured so perfectly. If you’re looking for someone who is talented, kind, patient, and truly cares about making your photos special, I highly recommend her!”

Hey love, I’m Kara - your Nikon-loving, sunset-obsessed photographer and wedding cheerleader! When my sister got engaged in 2010 and I invested in my first camera, I started to experience the joy of documenting love stories as I photographed her engagement session - my very first session. From there, things grew quickly and now my husband and I photograph 20+ weddings a year together! When I’m not photographing weddings throughout Chicagoland, you can find me snuggling our puppies Georgie + Jett, lovin’ on my family, spoiling the littles in our life as Auntie Kara, gardening in our backyard, and exploring breweries with my husband Kyle.

Welcome! I'm Brooke. I am so glad you're here. Grab a coffee, pull up your favorite chair and stay awhile. Catch up with the latest right here on the blog! My passion as a photographer comes from my love of art, creating memories, and my mother. In 2016 my mom passed away from Leukemia. My number one supporter, motivator, and overall most important person in my life was taken away from me way too early. Now all I have left are pictures.

“I cannot recommend Brooke enough!! She was such a pleasure to work with for both engagement photos and the wedding day. Her work is BEAUTIFUL!!!”

Hi, I'm Jordan! Wedding & Portrait Photographer based out of Chicago, Indiana, and Wisconsin. But I love to travel if I am given the opportunity to do so! I have been in the business for nearly six years. I fully serve my clients since it is my passion to make sure my clients look and feel their best while working with me, while also creating deep friendships and connections throughout the process. I taught myself everything that I need to know about being a business owner and photographer. I continue to grow my knowledge, education, and equipment! I am blessed to be able to say that I am living out my dream and passion.
