Laura Meyer Photography

Laura and her team were professional, talented, and a pleasure to work with. Our photos are timeless and quite literally works of art. They spend the entire day with us and helped plan the venues for the photographs before the reception and wedding. We received our pictures in a timely fashion and they looked great. Best photographer in Chicago!!!

I walked away from my wedding feeling that Laura Meyer is a friend. You can tell that she truly cares about the subjects in her photographs and enjoys her career. The engagement pictures we took with Laura in May were absolutely beautiful and we are still receiving compliments! Also, we received two preview photos just hours after our wedding on 9/3/11, and they are phonemonal! Everyone should use Laura's services for any special event in their life! A million more stars!

Laura has been the official event photographer for my very large scale, high-end culinary event, Share Our Strength's Taste of the Nation Chicago, for the last 3 years. In my 15 years working in charity events for many of Chicago's top nonprofit organizations (and with many event photographers), I can say honestly that Laura's photographs are the best I've seen. Her attention to detail, fantastic intuition (capturing every perfect moment) and professionalism ensures that I have the highest quality images to present to sponsors, donors, society pages and the media at large. I'm sure any bride would enjoy and benefit from the same skill and talent for capturing her most important day. We recommend her very enthusiastically as one of Chicago's best!

My husband and I were married in August 2011 and had the perfect day … and I attribute that to our vendors, particularly Laura Meyer! Laura was great to work with from the moment we first met during a consultation appointment , on the wedding day and now- four months later. There were a couple of bumps during the day of the wedding (i.e. limo drivers trying to rush things due to time, a missing toss bouquet, etc.) and Laura was a lifesaver helping out with everything! I was astonished. While she is one amazing photographer, she went above and beyond the call of duty helping to make the day go great. Her personality, professionalism, flexibility and ability to make things happen were more than we could have ever asked for. After having someone that I would rate as 5-stars I would expect to have moths coming from my wallet, but her prices are very reasonable, making the overall experience even that much greater. We chose not to hire a videographer for our wedding day- hoping the photos would be enough to capture our day- and I am completely happy with that decision. Laura, and her assistant Kate, truly captured every moment and emotion of the day in such a stunning way. Having a picture of a memory is one thing, but her pictures speak louder than words! They are priceless! While we haven’t gotten our photo album (completely my fault because I am super busy and slacking at looking through the one Laura developed a couple of months ago--- she’s great with follow-up and I am giving myself a deadline of Feb.1!) we have seen all of the photos and there isn’t one we didn’t like, and I know that I will love the finished product. The pictures are completely gorgeous and blew me away. I have also received the same feedback from friends and family. I’ve had colleagues that weren’t even at the wedding that have been raving about the photos Laura posted on her blog for four months now! Hands down, we couldn’t have asked for a better photography team to deal with or better photos. Everything was perfect. I can honestly say that Laura Meyer was a blessing in disguise and we thank her so much!!!

Laura is amazing, so easy to work with and accommodating. Her website is great too!

Laura is an excellent photographer and very professional. If you are looking for something different for your wedding, nothing cheesy and very modern, this is for you. Laura is so cute and so fun that she makes you enjoy more your wedding. Chris, her assistant is very nice and did a great job too. The photos she took in our wedding are stunning!

Laura Meyer exceeded our expectations and are very pleased with her professional services. The quality of her photography albums and photographs are excellent. She was always available to answer any questions or to help us in any way that she could. She has a very artistic eye in photography which is why we hired her - but she can also take regular photographs for the more traditional folks (especially for the picky parents). Her prices are reasonable since you do deal with her more than the average wedding photographer. I seriously believe that Laura Meyer Photography will grow as a very successful company! Will re-hire her for family pictures.

LMP is FANTASTIC! We are still getting compliments on our photos. Not only did my husband and I love working with Laura, but she and her assistant made the entire family and wedding party love working with them also. Laura was so flexible in scheduling our engagement session. And when it came time to make decisions about book layouts, she was always willing to send along samples and suggestions. Absolutely the most painless process in the whole wedding. We would recommend LMP to any- and everybody.

Laura and Christina were wonderful to work with. They were very flexible with our ten million schedule changes we had throughout our wedding planning. My wife and I were celebrating our 10 year marriage with a renewal of vows and since it was such a landmark for us, we wanted to make sure we hired the best, which is why we chose Laura Meyer. They were prompt with their arrival, very professional, and offered great suggestions when we were in a bind. We felt bad because the family pictures took longer than expected but again, Laura was very patient and was able to get the job done. I would recommend Laura to anyone that is thinking of choosing a photographer that actually has the field experience that she does. Thanks again for making our day memorable, BJ&Jen

I loved working with Laura and it was great that there were so many photographers at our wedding and reception, I felt that every moment was captured. :) It was a wonderful experience. :)

Our pictures are AMAZING! Every special moment was beautifully captured. There are so many pictures we love.

I found Laura by googling "Wedding Photographers in Oakbrook, IL". When I came across her website, I thought her pictures were amazing and she had the exact style I was looking for... candid, unique, and creative. When I inquired for more information, I at first decided I shouldn't meet with her because her packages were over my budget. That's when I met with the Fred Fox, Jolie Images, and Modern Studio's... all, mind you, are exactly the same. Great looking prices, but everything you'd obviously want would end up being extra in cost making them actually really expensive. So, I decided to meet with Laura because I decided she had what I was looking for and when it comes down to it, pictures are all that is left over after this amazingly quick day. I adored her personality immediately and thought she'd get the bridal party into the pictures and do an amazing job. She also INCLUDES every thing you would obviously want in all of her packages which I realized makes her really affordable and well worth it. We had 2 photographers, 10 hours, 3 albums (ours and 2 for our 2 sets of parents), and the CD with all of our proofs. She did such an amazing job with every thing, we couldn't be happier! Thanks Laura!

Laura photographed my 5/22/10 wedding in Lombard, IL and she was an absolute joy to work with. I am one of those brides who does not like having her picture taken and Laura made the whole process effortless and fun. She was organized and was able to wrangle my large wedding party and extended family in and out of shots effortlessly. I'd never had professional photography taken before and her work is truely amazing; I keep hearing from friends and family how beautiful and natural we all looked. She listened to our requests, got the shots we wanted yet was unobtrusive so we could really have a good time at our party. Laura is professional, organized and a breeze to work with. Her website is excellent and easy to navigate. I would highly recommend her for any occaision as she is excellent at her art and delivered an exceptional product. Thank you Laura!

Laura was professional, courteous and patient. She has a photojournalistic approach and creates the most beautiful, artistic pictures. She uses another photographer, so you�ll get great pictures from all different angles. Her prices are extremely competitive and she also includes a free engagement session with her packages. She met with us several times before the wedding to get to know us and to get a feel for the style of photography we liked. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photojournalistic approach.

We loved working with Laura. She met all of our needs and was very flexible. Her price was great.

Laura was incredible! She is easy to work with, creative, responsive, professional and INCREDIBLY talented! Laura was the first wedding vendor we booked (even before our venue!) and was by far the best money we spent! We were blown away with our engagement picture which Laura was so SUPER flexible to reschedule twice due to in-climate weather on our first 2 attempts! and even though we were literally running through the rain by the end of them, Laura was laughing and having fun the whole way. Then I opted to do a boudoir session with her, which is NOT an easy thing to just do...and again, Laura made me feel so comfortable, not self conscious and like a darn rock star! And of course on our wedding day, when my husband and I (and Laura, too!) decided to drag our bridal party of 10 to Millennium Park, the Wrigley Building, La Salle Street and Wicker Park for pictures before our 5pm ceremony, Laura and her Assistant Christina just made it happen with amazing pictures to show for it! My family and friends still talk about how amazing our wedding photography is! She is competitively priced and worth any money spent as her talent FAR Exceeds her price tag! Not to mention she's just an awesome person to be around!

Our engagement and wedding pictures are ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!! I cannot even begin to count the amount of compliments I have gotten on both! Wedding pictures last a life time, and I can't believe mine are so beautiful and will be outstanding for a lifetime!!

Laura did a wonderful job with our wedding and engagement photo sessions! I couldn't have asked for any better. She was very flexible and also gave us some great ideas to help make all of our pictures just right. She has a great eye and does not just do the "cookie cutter" type wedding photography that some of the larger studios tend to produce. She was very professional throughout the entire process and she completed our proofs for both sessions very quickly. I have not heard of anybody getting their wedding proofs or albums finished as quickly as ours was done. I would recommend Laura to anyone looking for a photographer!

Laura was absolutely fantastic to work with. From the moment we met her, we knew she would be the perfect person to capture our personalities on our wedding day. Laura was easy to get contact throughout the process and went above and beyond to make sure our engagement and wedding photos were perfect. We could not be happier with the results and have gotten many, many compliments on our photos. Her style combines traditional photos with modern perspectives. We had such a hard time picking photos for our album because there were too many great ones to choose from.

Laura was AMAZING! She was so easy to work with. She was responsive through the whole process. She provided suggestions and accomodated all of our requests. She and her assistant were so great to work with the day of the wedding. Most importantly, the photos are incredible. There are so many great ones we're having a hard time picking our favorites. We couldn't be happier. We would definitely recommend Laura and look forward to working with her on family photos in the future.
