Aubrey was absolutely amazing to work with! My husband and I did both our engagement shoot and wedding with Blur Foto and all of our pictures turned out looking incredible. We could not be happier! The two of us had never done any sort of photo shoots before our engagement session and were a little out of our comfort zones at first, but Aubrey made us feel way more comfortable with it right away. Our wedding day pictures went so smoothly, as Aubrey came and scoped out all the best spots for photo ops before we were to get started. The thoughtfulness of being found and asked if we wanted any last specific group shots just before our time was up really stood out to us as well. Any other photographer would have just been done and off the clock when their contracted amount of time was up. We thoroughly enjoyed working with them and plan to do so again for any future photography needs. All of our family and friends also loved our pictures and I would recommend Aubrey to anyone for their wedding or engagement shoots. My husband and I are pretty low key people and working with Aubrey worked perfectly for our personalities. We are the 4th couple in our group of friends to use Blur Foto for our wedding and all of us have nothing but amazing things to say about the work done capturing and editing the pictures!

Mikey was awesome! He took our engagement and wedding pictures and both came out absolutely beautiful! He wanted to take some of our engagement photos at a location that was closed early in the morning, later after we were done we were going our separate ways and he noticed the place was open and called us over just so he can get more photos of us, which he didn’t have to do he could’ve just left.
A family member of mine just booked him for her wedding because of how beautiful my wedding pictures came out! If you’re thinking about using Blur Foro, do it because you won’t be disappointed!

Mike was absolutely amazing and by far the best decision we made for our wedding. He shot our engagement session along with our September wedding. To say he did a fantastic job in a HUGE understatement. Mike did an incredible job and our pictures for both our engagement session and wedding turned out better than we could have ever imagined. He was professional, funny, friendly and extremely responsive. We sat down and had multiple meetings with him explaining what our "style" of photography was and it took almost no time at all for Mike to realize what we were looking for. He completely hit the nail on the head with everything. He is also a great value for the amount of time and work he puts into everything. His attention to detail is meticulous.
The pictures he took for our engagement session were gorgeous and as soon as he showed us a preview of them we knew he was going to be exactly what we were looking for. On the day of our wedding he arrived early with his assistant and told us exactly what he thought would look perfect...and boy was he right. He worked so hard the whole entire day and that definitely was evident in the pictures. Our wedding pictures blew us out of the water and captured our day so perfectly. Every single picture was absolutely breathtaking. We have received numerous compliments on the photos from friends and family. He provided us with memories that will last a lifetime and we will forever be indebted to him for that. Do yourself a favor and book Mike for your wedding...you will not be disappointed. We can't wait to get our prints and show them off for many years to come.

If you are looking for quality pictures Mike is your guy. I have worked with mike on several occasions from a couples session, pet photos, church events and my wedding. I enjoy Mikes approach to taking photos, is a very natural way no just to pose for the camera but actually capture intimate moments through the lens that will last forever. Mike is very passionate about his work and not only does his final product show but overall attitude and professionalism. I know i will continue to work with Blurr Foto for many years to come.

I cannot stress enough how much we enjoyed working with Michael, from the time I began communicating with him via email about doing a consultation to getting our images sent to us after our wedding. He was professional, and he was so non-intrusive throughout the event. I have been at weddings when the photography team have not only been noticeable, but incredibly distracting, and this was not the case when working with Michael. The pictures were personal and beautiful, and I was in love with the candid photos he caught throughout the day. We are so proud of our images. Thank you, Michael!

I discovered Blurfoto after walking up to a perfect stranger at the framing shop to ask who took their beautiful group photo. The rest, as they say, is history. Working with Mike was awesome.

First, he took our engagement photos in downtown Chicago, and was super flexible about where. When my first choice ended up being taken up by student filmmakers, we just popped across the street and BOOM awesomeness. It was also a great way to get to know Mike's style.

For the wedding, we gave him a really tight window, but he was able to accommodate our scheduling (I had a brunch wedding, and did first look and wedding party pics before the wedding. Making for a really early start!). While I had some of the areas picked out already, Mike found other hidden spots that turned out beautifully.

i wish I could give 10 stars for responsiveness. The time to email me back was incredibly fast; but also the final pictures were uploaded in the blink of an eye. No waiting around for months and months for this impatient bride.

My only piece of advice to any bride is to do what I didn't do...make a list of people with whom you absolutely must have a picture. In fairness, Mike asked me for a list, but I never got it to him. (Shame on me!)

Mike is absolutely WONDERFUL to work with!! I was not your typical bride who wanted pictures of everything, so it was nice that Mike had creative ideas to throw in the mix of your typical wedding pictures! My husband and I were so pleased with how our pictures turned out. They are absolutely gorgeous. Mike is extremely professional. If you are not in the Chicago area like we weren't, he is quick to respond to emails and he was also available through skype as well. Travel fees were very inexpensive too. I could honestly keep going with how awesome it was to work with Mike, but book him and see for yourself!

Where do I begin! Everything about working with Mike was amazing. His profesionalism is much to be praised. Many of my guess noticed his precision. I wouldn't consider Mike a photographer but truely an artist.

Multiple friends and family members have worked with Mike after seeing how talented and personable he is to work with.

Mike and his team are worth every penny! If I could give him more than five starts I would. We are so grateful for his work and the amazing memories.

If you want the best of the best in the Chicago and surrounding areas Mike and his team are the right choice. I couldn't be happier with the final product!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
