  Perfect Wedding Photos!

  Wes was absolutely brilliant throughout every step of the process - and it all showed in the end with his immaculate pictures. He is a master of lighting, space, and composition. His ability to uniquely capture a frame and moment in time is quite special. The photos from our wedding are perfect.
  
  Outside of the final product of photos - Wes is the best person to have for the job due to his appreciation for the craft, and for his dedication to working at the highest level. He is honest, humble, kind and hilarious. He also has a calming presence and realness to him - which if you have him for your wedding (like we did) - that is just the type of person you want around that day. A thing to note that we thought was special and touching was that Wes had seriously done his research to know the names of our parents, bridal party, etc. So during photos he was addressing everyone by their names and that to us was above and beyond.
  
  We would and will highly recommend Wes Craft Photography to all! It was the best decision we made.

  WOW - Wes Craft Photography

  Wow, Wes!!!! Our photos were absolutely amazing!!! We must say that we are blown away by how beautiful they are! The warmth, light, and raw emotion of every moment Wes captured meant so much to us and it will be something that we will cherish forever! We feel like we're having a hard time not looking at them over and over!!
  
  Going through our photos together for the first time was so special and brought out all the laughs, tears, and every emotion in between. We love how Wes didn't do what every other photographer does, all those basic poses that seem to be the ‘standard’ run of the mill shots! The style and life in his photos, especially the candids, made us feel like we were reliving our special day! You can absolutely tell the passion and creativity that he puts into his profession! His effort and attention to detail really shines through in the final product! We couldn’t recommend Wes enough and would choose Wes Craft Photography 1000 times over! We also must say that we have gotten so many compliments from our wedding guests about how beautiful our photos are and how he made it really easy to be photographed…even for those guests that usually hate taking pictures! We have already been telling some of our already married friends about his family shoots and his work outside of wedding photography when they ask about how in the world we found him!

  Book Wes!!

  This review is tough to write, as our jaws are still on the floor from just seeing our wedding day PREVIEWS. Wes is incredibly amazing, beyond talented, professional, has the creative “eye”, detail-oriented and was an absolute pleasure to work with. I met him at a wedding I worked a few weeks after getting engaged and instantly knew we had to book him, after seeing him in action. Leading up to our engagement session, my now husband and I were nervous about not knowing how to act in front of the camera without coming off awkward or stiff, but Wes made us feel so comfortable right off the bat and gave such great direction – we ended up having so much FUN!!
  
  Our wedding day was a literal dream to which we feel so lucky Wes and his second shooter, Lucas, were able to capture. Thank you, Wes!!

  High quality photography and great service for a reasonable price!

  We chose Wes Craft to photograph my daughter’s wedding based on the high quality of the photos on his website and a great recommendation from a friend whose wedding he had photographed. We were not disappointed. Wes and his wife, Necia, captured every important moment of the wedding day as well as providing us with high quality portrait photos of our families and friends. The photos were available six weeks after the wedding, as promised, and the prints and canvas I ordered were delivered in time for some memorable Christmas gifts. I highly recommend Wes for his skilled photography!

  Rockstars!

  Before we booked with Wes, we were following his work for a few years. We had a very large ethic wedding and wanted a photographer that could capture all of the important details of the ceremony and handle a large guest count. Wes and Necia were the perfect team!!! Wes took the lead from the moment he walked into the door and that is exactly what we needed! Wes' personality is captivating and Necia was the bridesmaid I needed on the wedding day!
  
  Wes and Necia are extremely kind, loving, and talented people. They were the perfect addition to our wedding day!

  Absolutely PHENOMENAL!!!!!!!

  We hired Wes for our engagement photos a couple years ago and absolutely loved how turned out, so it was an easy decision to hire him for our wedding. And we are SO glad that we did! Our wedding photos are absolutely stunning and we're getting nonstop compliments from our families & friends. Showing off Wes's incredible work to everyone has become a huge source of joy for my wife & me. Wes has an incredible instinct for capturing timeless moments. He also kept everyone (young & old) in high spirits during prep, portrait, and post-ceremony photos. We really can't recommend Wes enough. He's so incredible at what he does that you'll be thinking of reasons/occasions to hire him again as soon as possible - I know we are! Thank you, Wes - You captured our entire wedding absolutely beautifully!!!

  Breathtaking work!

  Wes has an amazing eye and captures everything in a way we never thought possible. We used him for our engagement photos which were absolutely gorgeous. So we had to have him take our wedding photos. They were breathtaking. Everyone raved about our photos. We get to relive our wedding through the photos alone. You will not be disappointed!

  Nothing but the best!

  Wes was an incredible photographer to work with. My husband and I were married in November 2020 during the height of the pandemic and Wes was with us through it all. Our plans evolved a few times and Wes was nothing but flexible, understanding and accomodating (he even took a Covid test prior). His timeless photos help us relive every moment of our wedding day and we are grateful he captured it. We cannot recommend Wes enough, this is clearly his true passion and we are grateful to have worked with him.

  You will NOT find a better photographer!

  I cannot say enough good things about Wes Craft! Wes and his wife Necia make the perfect team. During our initial conversations, Wes spent a lot of time with us on the phone and in person to understand our exact vision and expectations. He totally understood what we were looking for, and was able to provide helpful information regarding possible locations and ideas that might work best for us. During our engagement shoot, Wes spent extra time with us to get amazing shots of the city skyline in the water. As the COVID-19 pandemic hit, Wes was one of the first vendors to reach out to us with information regarding their policies and how they would be able to accommodate us. Our large reception for our wedding was postponed, but Wes was able to come to our small ceremony and captured the most beautiful pictures in quick turnaround. The quality of pictures you will get and the experience you will have cannot be matched.

  Absolutely Amazing!

  Wes and Necia were absolutely amazing! During our initial talk Wes took time getting to know us and was always very responsive to emails. Even though we're not used to having our pictures taken, he made my husband and I comfortable. You can see his mind working, always looking for interesting and unique shots. He was funny and kept our family and wedding party at ease. He shot our engagement photos as well and they turned out so beautiful! We cannot recommend him highly enough.

  Awesome photographers

  Wes and Necia did a great job with our wedding and engagement photos. We've received many compliments on them. Wes was great to work with from beginning to end. He met with us prior to booking and answered all of our questions. I felt confident in his abilities in that meeting. Scheduling our engagement photos was a breeze, and he helped a lot in setting our day-of timeline.
  I am so happy to have these photos as memories from our wedding day. I highly recommend Wes Craft Photography

  Thank you for sharing your experience Karen! We even captured photos of you falling down stairs. I mean, talk about well rounded coverage of every unexpected event! LOL. I hope your ankle’s doing OK now. Much love to you and Bryan.

  Timeless Works of Art

  If we could give Wes more than five stars, we would. We wanted timeless photos that we would be proud to hang in our home for years to come, not photos that would look dated within five years because they were so trendy. Wes more than delivered in that department. The photos he and his wife Necia took are true works of art. We got married during a nasty winter storm, with high winds and sleet nearly all day, but you'd never know it from the pictures. Our indoor pictures are stunning, and the few outdoor pictures we were brave enough to take look magical. Wes was totally in his element all day - it's very clear that he loves what he does. He captured everything we hoped for from our day, and we absolutely, 100% highly recommend going with him for your wedding.

  Gosh we love working with a couple who don’t let the weather defeat them! You guys stayed upbeat and had a great time regardless and that made the job of capturing awesome photos so much easier and more rewarding.

  Amazing!

  Wes and Necia were incredible!!!! They photographed our engagement session and wedding! Wes made our engagement shoot so fun, easy, and comfortable!! Our pictures turned out beautiful. He captured us so well and also had amazing, creative shots! A family friend had photos taken in the same location by another photographer and on comparison, our photos were significantly better quality and captured great candid shots! Our wedding day they were such an amazing team. Our wedding party and guests loved them. It was pretty chilly and they kept the wedding party laughing and smiling throughout outside pictures! Our guests commented how they were so amazing running around and getting pictures of everything. Amazingly, I didn’t even notice that because they did it in such a seemless and professional way! They also managed to wrangle my gigantic family for pictures and recall so many peoples names - wow! I had many people request their information after our wedding to have them photograph their own events. Definitely definitely recommend!!!!

  This means so much to hear! Thanks for taking the time to recommend us to other Weddingwire seekers. We always want to create images in a space that take advantage of the space's best features while also trying new things that we haven't seen other photographers do in a space. I'm glad you keyed in on that.

  The best team to work with period.

  We had the pleasure of working with Wes and Necia for our wedding. They were INCREDIBLE to work with! It was thunderstorming during our wedding and their humor and professionalism made me forget about the bad weather and just enjoy the day. I had positive comments throughout the night from guests about this husband and wife team, such as “they were literally everywhere!” I hope to get the chance to work with these two again because they were amazing! If you’re in need of a photographer, I HIGHLY recommend Wes Craft Photography!!

  Thank you so much Molly! In light of weather funkiness, keeping your head high will ensure the best photos under the circumstances. You might be surprised at how interesting rainy days can look in photos too! I'm so glad we could help be a stabilizing force in the maelstrom. :)

  Wes and his wife Necia do a fabulous job capturing your special day. My husband and I are not very big on PDA so we were a little worried about our engagement shoot and wedding day because we don't really like attention. Wes did a fantastic job making is feel more comfortable and really doing all he could to make our experience perfect. Wes was super fun to work with, the perfect amount of sarcasm to go along with our very sarcastic personalities, and really made our day special.
  
  Wes got AMAZING photos of our first dance. We a did a choreographed first dance as a surprise to our guests and the photos we got back from it are absolutely breathtaking. He and his wife really go above and beyond to get you exactly what you are looking for!

  A True Artist

  Where do I begin...
  
  Wes Craft and his wife Necia are the most underrated photography duo ever. Their hard work and attention to detail are truly remarkable. We have gotten so many compliments from all our friends and family about both our engagement and wedding photos from Wes. They were able to capture so many emotions from our beautiful wedding day. Even his slideshow brought my maid-of-honor and I to tears.
  
  Working with Wes from the very beginning has been a dream and he is by far our most favorite vendor. During our initial meeting, Wes took extensive time to explain his photography style and show us examples. The icing on the cake was his experience working with cultural weddings. My husband and I were planning on having a traditional Chinese tea ceremony and wanted to have it captured on photos. It was so refreshing for Wes to already be familiar with the ceremony and even examples of past tea ceremonies he captured! My husband and I were floored by how the photos turned out and all the neat little moments he captured of our loved ones in the background of the ceremony.
  
  Our wedding day could not have gone better. His experience helped us plan a nice wedding day timeline that eased the nerves of an anxious bride. He is so detail-oriented and fantastic with communication - which I value so much in a wedding vendor. Wes and Necia were so patient and went the extra mile to capture all the best shots. All of the photos turned out amazing and was a true artwork of our love story. We are beyond excited to work with Wes again to put together our album.
  
  Wes and Necia was the best wedding investment by far and we would recommend them in a heartbeat to anyone looking for a talented photographer!

  Underrated! I like that. We've been a little quiet on the marketing front for the last 4-5 years as our family has grown and since then a thousand new photographers have jumped on Weddingwire. In a sense we have to reintroduce ourselves and what we do differently. Thanks for helping us do that by sharing your story!

  15/10 would recommend Wes!!!

  Wes has photographed my sister's wedding, my family reunion, and my own wedding - we've dubbed him our unofficial "official" family photographer because he is quite seriously THE BEST. From a professional standpoint, he is responsive, helpful, engaged, personal, and INCREDIBLY TALENTED. He will adjust his photography style if you have specific requests, but overall he has a vision and will help you look fire in your photos. His style of photographing makes you feel comfortable and as a result, your photos turn out beautifully. I can't recommend Wes enough - he has never failed to deliver stunning photos with a personal touch. For any photography need, Wes will always be my number 1 choice. Thank you for immortalizing our wedding day with your amazing talents, Wes!

  Incredible eye for beauty

  We are constantly told we have the best wedding pictures. Every single shot was beautiful. Craft photography captures the story. Because of this, we hired Wes to photograph our daughters first birthday and a family session. Again, the pictures were stunning. Trying to find a handful to print was impossible. We wanted to print them all. This photography team works hard for the money and it shows. Plus they are wonderful people who keep details in mind and are very conscious of hair, clothes, "chin up", stances, background and balance. Any time we have an event or want family shots taken, we will be going with Wes Craft Photography. Hands down.

  Amazing work and a joy to work with!

  Wes and Necia did an INCREDIBLE job shooting our wedding at the Art Institute of Chicago. They were both so patient with all of our questions and needs and were also so helpful with their recommendations. The photos and album they made for us after the wedding are absolutely perfect. The quality is incredible and the photos are amazing. I would HIGHLY recommend hiring Wes and Necia for any of your photographer needs!

  Best Photographers!

  We are so happy to have discovered Wes Craft Photography. What made them stand out the most to us was their artistry and the way their pictures told a story. As soon as we looked through their photo gallery, we knew we wanted to hire them for our wedding. The only hesitation we had was whether they would be able to capture our ethnic wedding with the same creativity and style as they did with American weddings.
  
  During our first meeting, Wes took the time to get to know us, both as a couple and individually. He went over their services, packages, and showed us more of their work. While we discussed our vision for our wedding, he listened and took notes. This was very important for us because we were having an Assyrian wedding with many traditions and continuous line dances. We explained to him how a typical Assyrian wedding day would look like and all of the traditions that would occur. Wes was very understanding and assured us that he would pay close attention to all the details. After meeting with Wes, we felt comfortable to hire them.
  
  Our experience with Wes and Necia Craft was more than we ever hoped for. They are professional, creative, detail-oriented, communicative, respectful, and most importantly collaborative. Wes and Necia worked with us as we planned our wedding schedule and photo locations, on the wedding day as they directed our bridal party and family photos, and after our wedding as they helped us design and edit our album. Wes and Necia always communicated with us in a timely manner; addressing any of our questions or concerns. They also delivered our photos as promised.
  
  Furthermore, what makes Wes and Necia amazing photographers is that they truly care about their clients. They treated us like family and learned our family member’s names ahead of time. On the wedding day, they referred to our immediate family by first name. We all have ethnic Assyrian names and Wes and Necia nailed our pronunciations! Not only did we, the immediate family, love having Wes and Necia as a part of our wedding, but so did our guests! During and after our wedding, our guests expressed how professional, humorous, and friendly Wes and Necia were.
  
  Lastly, our photographs, from our engagement session to our wedding day, came out beautiful. Wes and Necia captured so many intimate and candid moments that we will cherish forever. The quality and creativity behind each photo is what makes us smile and relive our wedding day and why we chose Wes Craft Photography. Our family and friends always tell us how our photos look like they came from a magazine - all thanks to Wes and Necia!
  
  We highly recommend Wes Craft Photography!
  
  
  Sincerely,
  Aphrem + Nineveh

  It was so thoughtful of you to leave this extensive review. I'm touched you noted our care for your personal cultural celebrations. Necia & I spent more than half of our childhoods living outside of the U.S. and have been shooting weddings in the diverse communities of Chicagoland for over 12 years now. One of the things we pride ourselves in and enjoy most is experiencing the diverse expressions of weddings across cultures. For every unique thing in one culture's wedding traditions there are cross-cultural threads and universal truths in love and family that we get to explore. Thank you for sharing your rich Assyrian Orthodox heritage with us.

  Wes and his wife were absolutely PHENOMENAL! They captured every single moment of our night and really was able to show how much people enjoyed the night and how happy everyone was.
  
  Also, he was so creative in photos he took. It rained on our wedding day, but that didn’t stop us getting amazing photos. He was able to use the indoor space and get creative with the surroundings.
  
  I honestly cannot write enough good things about them. My husband and I could not have asked for a better photographer to capture our day. The photos were spectacular. We can’t stop looking at them. Best photographer around !

  I feel like we hit the jackpot hiring Wes Craft for our wedding. We found him through a family referral & knew his work was incredible. Wes is so responsive to emails and is incredibly detailed, a quality I appreciated immensely being a busy bride planning an entire wedding. He made us feel so comfortable from our engagement shoot to the day of. I didn't need to worry, knowing that he would capture everything that was important to us. His wife, Necia, is also incredible and having the husband-wife duo is such a great asset. The quality of his work is unmatched. We can't wait to see all the final shots from our big day. We would definitely recommend Wes Craft Photography!! :-)

  What can be said about Wes and Necia that hasn't already been proclaimed? They were both consummate professionals and made our memories all the more special with their expertise. From our initial consultation with Wes, we were at ease with his attitude and professional vision. My wife comes from a family of photographers and he came highly recommended by the photography community, upon the first visit it was very clear why. Wes is a very kind soul and spent a large amount of time getting to know us and our personalities even before we discussed a single photo. We knew within in the first thirty minutes he was our photographer. Wes did a fantastic job of keeping in touch with us leading up to our wedding day and invited us out for a scouting shoot in the area around our venue. Both my wife and I are very goofy and rambunctious and Wes came into the situation like an old friend. The scouting trip was very playful and yet filled with his knowledge of what could and could not be accomplished on the big day. We left that meeting even more convinced that we had made the right choice in our photographer. As other reviews have stated Wes was a driving force for our timeline and did an amazing job keeping us on schedule. On the big day both Wes and Necia were fantastic with the controlled chaos revolving around us and during our preparation photos were very calming. Due to time restrictions and the pace our of ceremony and reception my wife and I chose to do a first look and Wes and Necia were phenomenal in making us comfortable and keeping us on track during the photos before the ceremony. Every single person in our wedding party loved Wes and had a fantastic time during the shoots. We knew that the pictures being taken were going to be good but when we finally saw them all every expectation we had was blown out of the water. I have not encountered a single guest from the wedding who did not tear up while browsing our photos. Wes and Necia are absolutely amazing!!!
