Lauren Wakefield Photography

Lauren is a true professional. Her enthusiasm and ability to make you look awesome is incredible. She’s easy to work with, has a creative eye and her turnaround time is great. I strongly recommend contacting her.

Lauren is young, energetic, fun, and best of all she has a great eye for the perfect picture. She loves photography, which makes it very enjoyable when she is taking pictures of you. My wife and I had her take our engagement and wedding pictures and could not be happier.
Go to her website and take a look, she will not disappoint!

Hands down the best photographer in Chicago! She’s so talented her pictures speak for themselves but what else you need to know is how outstanding she is at all the other ‘photographer skills’. Things that make her invaluable to your wedding day and pictures! From the first time you meet with her you’ll realize how much she values being able to be a part of such an important time in your life and how important it is to her to get everything right. She’s readily available if you have questions, even if it’s just to pick her brain about some wedding detail. She’ll help set up your wedding day timeline and offer suggestions based on her experience. And when we made things a little more difficult by not doing a ‘first look’ she easily went with it and helped us coordinate things so that we could still get great pictures with the time we had! She’s professional and friendly and knows how to ‘take charge’ of a group so that everyone knows what to do and when, which is very important when you’re trying to get great pictures efficiently! Many of my married friends in my bridal party commented to me that they wished they knew of her when they were hiring a photographer for their weddings! And have I mentioned what a wonderful person she is?! Lauren is truly the best!
Finding the right photographer is one of the most important decisions you’ll make in planning your wedding… be smart and pick Lauren! :)

Lauren photographed our rehearsal dinner and wedding in September and we could not have been more pleased! From our first meeting with Lauren, we knew that she was the perfect person to capture our wedding the way we wanted it. She made us feel at ease and was helpful in answering any questions we had. Hearing past experiences that friends and family had with other wedding photographers, I knew Lauren would not be the type of photographer that met you once then didn’t communicate with you until your wedding day. She took the time to get to know both of us and make the extra effort, which made us feel extremely comfortable and happy with our choice! Throughout both our rehearsal dinner and wedding day, she captured not only the important moments, but the tiny details and things that you normally miss. Our pictures could not have turned out better and we will definitely be using Lauren in the future for when we have children.
