Everything we wanted and more!

Caitlin's team was professional and hardworking from the beginning. An engagement photo shoot was included with our package so that we got a feel for working with her. Those photos turned out perfectly, and we were excited for the wedding. The day of our wedding, Caitlin and her assistant stayed all day to make sure they captured everything. They thought of all of the little details, getting ready moments, venue shots, sunset photos...you name it! They really went above and beyond and we cannot wait to see our final photos!

Caitlin captured beautiful memories of our wedding day. She was recommended to us by our wedding venue, Riverside Receptions. We quickly fell in love with her beautiful landscape photos from other events. Prior to booking Caitlin, we met with her in person to allow everyone to get to know each other. This also allowed us to ask Caitlin some questions regarding what to expect from her and are assistant photographer should we hire them. Caitlin’s kind and calm demeanor – as well as attention to detail immediately won us over.
Caitlin was easy to work with throughout the planning process. She did our engagement photos and recommended a beautiful park in Geneva. She is very knowledgeable about lighting, framing, and how to make you feel comfortable during a photo session.
Prior to our wedding day, Caitlin sent us a questionnaire to pin point exactly what photos we were looking to have taken on our wedding day. SHE DID NOT MISS ANY REQUEST! She was flexible with our ideas and offered insight on how to make sure our day flowed smoothly from getting ready, the ceremony, family photos, bridal party, pictures of just us, and the reception. She even met with us the week of our wedding to walk the site of our venue and where post ceremony pictures would be. We were put at ease with her knowledge of the location and what scenes we could use as backgrounds.
Caitlin allowed me to be a calm, happy bride because I knew she would capture our friends and family in their best light. The pictures speak for themselves with how beautiful they are. She sent us a USB drive with all of our pictures to keep. She also offers options to print our pictures or create albums. She and her assistant photographer captured so many intimate, fun, and special moments on our wedding day. She was wonderful to work with and allowed us to have beautiful pictures to remember our special day with. THANK YOU CAITLIN!

We used Caitlin for our engagement and wedding photos, and we can't say enough about our experience. Caitlin and Kate were absolutely wonderful on our wedding day, everyone was so impressed! They were so nice and made everything seem effortless. We were ALL over the place taking pictures, and Caitlin was even in the water at one point trying to get great shots--that's dedication! If you're not sure what you want or what to do/how to pose and and not necessarily comfortable in front of a camera, no worries! Caitlin and her team will guide you and tell you exactly what to do to ensure great shots. She lets you know what to expect from start to finish and follows through with exactly what she says. With so many things to do and worry about with wedding planning, Caitlin made the process so easy and seamless. My husband (!!!!) and I would definitely recommend Hazelton Photography for your engagement and wedding photos!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Caitlin is always a pleasure to work with. Her easy going style and unique ability to capture those 'special moments' make her one of the best photographers in Chicagoland. We work with hundreds of photographers every year and Hazelton Photography is at the top of the list. We never have to chase her down or slow down the timeline because she is out of the room. She is very accessible during each wedding and this makes it easy to keep the flow of the a wedding seamless. Highly recommend?
