Victor and Saoirse of Fox + Ivory were the most immaculate wedding photographers to document our Chicago Cultural Center wedding! Working with Victor was an absolute joy. From taking our engagement photos to the big day itself, Victor facilitated candid moments every step of the way. We are so happy we chose Fox + Ivory and can't recommend them enough. Thanks Victor!

The best team & best photos we have ever had taken. Thank you for everything!

My husband and I seriously could not have been happier with Fox and Ivory. From the moment I contacted them, every single interaction with them was a 10 out of 10. Truly. They hit the ball so far out of the park on professionalism, talent, communication and value that I feel like they’re the blueprint for how every vendor should operate. Professionalism: Peter and Jay are the consummate pros. They know their stuff and give it to you straight. Anticipate your needs. And always make you feel special. I would imagine that doing this for a while, your interactions with clients can get a little “transactional.” But not with them. They never take the importance of their jobs for granted, and every interaction feels thoughtful, meaningful and personalized. Plus, they are laugh-out-loud funny and such a joy to work with! When I emailed Jay some questions I had, he immediately suggested we hop on a call instead of going back and forth electronically. And I felt so much better after I spoke with him in person. Talent: Well, the photos speak for themselves. So natural. So candid. So inspired. We absolutely ADORED our photographer, Violet. First of all, she is the friendliest, kindest person you will ever meet. She had such an easy way with us, and we instantly felt comfortable and confident in her hands. I swear, she could make us look good sitting in squalor, if she had to. But we loved our time with her on our actual wedding day and didn’t want her to leave! She blends in during the intimate moments, goes with the flow, has great ideas and captures all the best moments you want to see and share over and over. She really is so special and we can’t say enough great things about her. Communication. They tell you everything you need and nothing you don’t at the exact time you need it, while always looking forward to what’s next. None of their emails seem canned, but rather carefully curated and meaningful. You always know exactly where you are in the process. Value. My god, these guys are priceless. Honestly, I think they’re a steal for what you get because you can’t put a price tag on their level of professionalism, communication and talent combined. I cannot recommend them highly enough. And I know they will never become monsters from all my compliments (which they deserve!) because they’re just too nice of people.

After looking for and meeting with many photographers, we decided to go with Violet from Fox and Ivory. During our engagement shoot, Violet made things very comfortable and fun which really helped solidify that we made the right choice for the wedding. We also had her shoot our rehearsal dinner and we are so glad we did, she walked around and captured so many amazing moments.

For the wedding we hired both videography and photography and both teams were excellent at helping keep us(me) at ease and make it fun and comfortable to have cameras around. Our pictures are amazing and captured the memories even better than I could have hoped and the team we worked with really added to our big day!

Jay was very communicative and helpful during the entire process which also helped make wedding planning easier. We highly recommend Fox and Ivory, especially Violet and her team!

From the moment we inquired with Fox + Ivory, we knew we were in the best hands. On our intro call, Jay answered all of our questions and made us feel completely at ease. Jay and Peter went above and beyond and flew out to NYC and did a special engagement session for us, delivering gorgeous photos and a beautiful video the following week. The images and film captured us as a couple perfectly and gave us the confidence we needed going into the wedding as people who are not super comfortable in front of a camera. On our wedding day, we worked with Jen as our Lead Photographer and Sadie as our Assistant Photographer, and to say they were amazing is an understatement. They approached every shot with so much fun and creativity, and they hyped us up all day long. Jen even placed my veil for me when nobody else could figure it out—talk about going the extra mile! While we haven’t received our final photos yet, we have no doubt they will be incredible. We got glimpses of a few on the camera day-of and they already looked amazing! If you’re looking for talented photographers and all around good people, consider your research done. We feel so lucky that we got to work with so many of Fox + Ivory’s talented team members.

We had the absolute best experience working with Jay and his entire team at Fox and Ivory. They're a friendly, highly competent team. By the end, I thought of Jay as a dear friend! They do a great job of helping to manage emotions and expectations and yet still curate around your desires. They're very good at managing the various family/friends in your pictures to come together and get in the right poses. oh and of course, the pictures are stunning! For those struggling to figure out where to take pictures or how to do them, you can easily leverage their expertise here as well. All in all, couldn't recommend Jay's team enough. Our day wouldn't have been so special with out them.

Fox + Ivory captured the most beautiful moments of our wedding day and got our pictures and videos back to us so quickly! Jay was easy to reach and very responsive through the entire planning process and when the big day came we had two photographers and two videographers. Maddie and Julia were amazing to work with and made it a stress free day. We were so happy we went with Fox + Ivory it was nice to have a group of people who were used to working with another so they weren’t fighting for the good shots. We are forever grateful we have the most amazing memories to look back on from the best day of our lives! Thank you again!

Jay and his assistant at Fox + Ivory were wonderful to work with during our engagement shoot. He is truly a professional and has an eye for what makes an incredible photo from poses to scenes to light. He is such an engaging, interesting person and very approachable. Our guests had nothing but wonderful things to say about him and his work. He did a remarkable job capturing all the key moments on our special night. Now, we have amazing photos and prints to treasure for years to come!

The Fox and Ivory team gave white glove service and did an amazing job getting coverage of our wedding.
Jay was open and honest from the day that we inquired about their services. There were no “gotchyas” and everything was straightforward and simple. Jay was very conscientious of where we were in the planning process and offered invaluable advice that helped us structure out the day. He was available for in person meet ups, zoom calls, and was always responsive to emails.
We did our engagement and bridal shower photos with Jay. These were both great experiences because it was almost like a “dry run” for the wedding. Additionally, because the photos were fantastic and diverse, they were perfect to post on our wedding website.
On the day of the wedding, we had met the whole team, and everyone was respectful, informative, and put us and our guests at ease. They were aware of the plan for the day and helped keep everything on track as we moved to our photo locations, and later reception venue. During the reception they did a fantastic job taking photos of us and our guests. They were always present but never in the way of anyone. We greatly appreciate the attention to detail and amazing coverage that they provided.
The photos were turned around within the expected time frame and we couldn’t be happier with the results. The team took our considerations and did a beautiful job capturing our personalities and relationship. We could not recommend Jay and the Fox and Ivory team enough!

We worked with Jeremy as head photographer and Jen as assistant photographer for our wedding in October 2022. They were awesome! Perfect balance of professional and fun, they took care of business getting key shots while not being pushy. Also, working with Jay on any random questions we had in the whole process was unbelievably helpful and made the whole process feel like a breeze. Thank you!!
