Peter did a beautiful job with our wedding photos. We really wanted someone who would capture the "moments" of the day and he did that and more. He was creative, fun, and accommodating to our needs. I highly recommend Peter if you want a great photographer who gives you pictures that belong in a magazine!

The pictures are awesome! Peter really did a wonderful job! He is an amazing photographer. He listened to what we wanted and gave us advice on the things we weren't sure about. He was very respectful and professional. Peter has a great personality and was a lot of fun. We enjoyed having him as our photographer. I would definitely keep Peter in mind for any future pictures we need taken.

Peter was absolutely wonderful to work with. He was always available to talk with me about details. He didn't try and push and package deal, but was very helpful in helping me to create the kind of book and photos that we wanted. We had a very unique aspect to our wedding, as we went out on a boat and cruised around the harbor after the ceremony. Peter had no problem getting in a small chase boat and following us, to get some of the best photos of the day. His assistant Gina accompanied him for the day (at our request), and made sure we had photos from on the boat as well. Of all the vendors I worked with for my wedding, Peter was the best. Photos were one of the few things I actually didn't worry about, because he'd been so responsive and helpful in the planning process.

Peter was by far the best photographer a bride and groom could ask for hands down! He was so responsive to every need, and made us all feel relaxed from the moment he started snapping photos. He has such a laid back and happy demeanor, you cannot help smile and have a great time. He really went above and beyond what was contracted, even making sure to fulfill my bridal fantasy of being on a fire truck with hot firemen on my wedding day!! Within days of our event, he had put together a short video montage of just some of the photos set to music so we would get an idea of what to expect. I cried I was so happy with how it turned out. Trust me, if you want good shots and an awesome photographer, go with Peter. We will never use anyone else for any event. Thanks for the memories!!!

Peter is an amazing photographer who is easygoing, flexible, fun and professional. He took beautiful photos of our wedding that my husband and I feel captured our wedding prefectly. A few things occured unexpectedly on our end and Peter just went with it. Peter was a blast to have around and I would like to think he had a little fun with us too! :) I would recommend Peter to anyone who wants a photographer that is able to capture those special moments you always want to remember. What an amazing job! :) Sarah & Chris White

Peter was a great photographer to work with! He impressed us right off the bat by arriving on time fully prepared. He is a nice guy, relaxed and goes with the flow. He works very hard to catch special moments and has a good sense of humor. We liked how he was part of our day, but not intrusive. We like to think that although he was working, he had a good time. He is a people person and was nice to our guests. I recommed that you work with Peter! Also, he sent us a video montage of what to expect for our wedding pix. I have to say, just like other brides said, it was a great video that made me cry! It was about 2 mins. I emailed it friends for a glimpse of our wedding.

My husband and I got married in the Naperville Il area. As any couple planning a wedding knows, it can be a very stressful time. There are so many things that become so important, and sometimes feel like they are out of your hands. Like picking a photographer. Many times you chose a company and they assign you a person that is supposed to capture all of your most precious memories and family members on still frame for life. Kinda scary if you have never met them. Well, I am here to help. We got extrememly lucky in our assignment of photographer. If I had imagined the perfect match for our wedding in a photographer it would have been Peter Coombs. He was on time, and very prepared. I had a wonderful conversation with him on the phone prior to the wedding where we discussed some possible set choices, and he gave me some advice on what to think about pre-wedding day as far as what pictures I wanted. He has a wonderful sense of humor, and a fantastic work ethic. He was everywhere I wanted him to be, and we had an absolute blast with him. My whole wedding party, including my husband and I had never had as much fun taking pictures in a wedding as we did with Peter. And I am sure most of you have been through a boring picture session or two in your time. The pictures came back absolutely gorgeous, and he even created a little video for us which is absoltely awesome. I can whole heartedly reccomend Peter to any bride and groom who want to enjoy their wedding day without worrying about the pictures that come out of it. I wish everyone the joy and passion we had on our wedding day. Peter is your man.

We had a wedding late last year in Chicago (family scheduling problems) Although we booked at short notice Peter Coombs did an excellent job making sure everything was covered and that my wife and I got all the shots we wanted.
Peter emailed me to ask if I would write a review for him and I was very pleased to do it. His work was great and he really went the extra mile to get the best pictures. He also did some special photoshop work for us which looked fabulous.
We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a quality professional. My wife is going to do a 'Trash The Dress' session with him this summer.

This is an overall review of Peter Coombs as a photographer - we used him three times - engagement photo session, wedding and Trash the Dress Photoshoot.
Engagement Session: We just got our photos and free proof cd of our engagement shoot and Peter Coombs was FABULOUS - I loved almost every single photo! We felt so comfortable around him and he truly captured a LOT of intimate shots that I never even knew happened! So far, in working with Peter Coombs - he's super friendly, and I loved our engagement photo session. His original specialty is actually theatre photography and he comes to us from London, England! However, he also does wedding photography, which as he put it - is a production in itself - which it is!! He was very professional but was able to give us enough instruction while allowing for us to be natural and comfortable. Within a couple minutes, we were able to relax and just be ourselves while we did some of the simplest things. Many of the time, I forgot that he was there and he was truly able to capture our intimate moments.
Wedding: Peter Coombs was really great - he was everywhere and anywhere. He was promptly on time and for the most part, everyone was very comfortable around him and half of his photos, I didn't even realize so many things were happening at the same time. He really captured some of our intimate moments as well as some really funny ones, as well.
Trash the Dress: Peter was amazing - he came up with some fabulous ideas and I felt like a rockstar posing around and goofing off. He had some fabulous ideas and a lot of their photos turned out really well. I have to admit that my favorite photoshoot with Peter was the Trash the Dress one.

I booked Peter in 2006 for my wedding last year on the recommendation of a co-worker.
He was very engaging and my fiance and I hit it off with him immediately. He was very attentive and worked hard to make us feel comfortable.
Before Christmas we did an engagement session with him on Michigan Avenue which was great fun, he had lots of ideas and didn't make us feel pressured about time. The results were fabulous!
The wedding itself was a pretty frantic day and a couple of problems came up with my flowers and the reception but Peter was calm throughout and did a great job of keeping me and David (my husband) relaxed and happy.
He took around 1200 pictures in the end and we could'nt be happier The quality of the pictures themselves was excellent.
We also ordered an album from him which we love and we are getting extra copies for my parents and his sister ( who is hoping to book Peter for her wedding in 2009)
Thanks Peter!!
