My husband and I couldn't be more pleased with our wedding photos - they came out beautiful! Robert carefully listened to our needs and the results were even more lovely than we expected. He seemed interested in creating unique, artistic photos that weren't just run of the mill. The candid, naturalistic shots of our guests gave a realistic approach that we both love. Robert wasn't pushy or intrusive during our wedding day - his professionalism was abundant. My husband and I are eternally grateful that he was able to capture our special day with such beauty and class.

We can't stress how happy we are with Robert's service! We had our engagement photo session with him, as well as hired him to cover our whole wedding day.

Robert was professional, talented, and pleasant to work with. After we saw the photos from our engagement session, we knew found the right person, and trusted him for coverage of our wedding.

We believe wedding photos are forever. It was important that we find someone that can capture the moment, and tell a story from the pictures. Robert's work was able to provide all of that. Everytime we see this pictures, we are brought back to that special day of ours.

Our friends and family only had good things to say about his work. They were all impressed, and stated that we found "a jewel" for a photographer.

Keep up the good work, Robert! We will for sure recommend our friends for any future weddings!

Robert Sojka is a phenominal photographer. My husband and I had a destination wedding in the Carribbean, on the Turks and Caicos Islands. Robert listened to our desires and offered his artistic recommendations to assist us in creating the best possible wedding pictures. Robert was very flexible with our scheduling and offered advice to tweak any possible problems. He helped our special day run very smoothly. Robert also was professional with our other vendors and respected their space as well. Our wedding pictures turned out beautiful and were way beyond our expectations. Robert created such wonderful photographs that will forever be part of our lives. My husband and I are forever greatful for his expertise and dedication to make our day truly special.

I'll be the first to say that choosing a photographer was one of our toughest decisions to make during our planning process, but we could not have been happier choosing Robert as our photographer. He was so flexible in regards to scheduling, very quick to respond to our emails, and is truly talented. Our engagement photos were so beautiful so we knew our wedding photos would come out great as well. They were even better than we ever imagined! His use of lighting is remarkable. On the day of our wedding we had rain in the forecast. Immediately Robert provided us different options as outdoor pictures were not going to work. We're so glad he had suggestions as we would have been screwed. He was so professional the whole day, kept us on schedule (we had a tight schedule with lots of different stops), and was really accommodating. His prices are more than reasonable for the services he provides. Thank you Robert for all the beautiful pictures. We cannot wait to use you again.

Robert was an exceptional photographer and phenomenal to work with before and during the wedding ceremony and reception. For the value of his time and services which included engagement pictures, Robert went above and beyond what we needed to make our wedding extra special. He captured great moments from the wedding that will stay with us forever, and my wife and I had a 510 person wedding. His professionalism and flexibility proved that he was well worth every penny. He responded to all of our questions quickly and even delivered our pictures ahead ahead of expectations (which was by far much earlier than any other vendor). The quality of the pictures and digital pictures are better than any of our friend's weddings. My wife and I looked at 5 different vendors and all had comparable prices +/- $200, but the experience of working with Robert really made the wedding planning and the wedding day much easier. I have continued and will continue to recommend Robert to anyone.

We were married in June 2009 at the Morton Arboretum in Lisle, IL. Prior to meeting with Robert, we interviewed about 5 photographers from Chicago. Although they all had great looking portfolios, Robert really seemed to understand what we were looking for (which was a mix of urban engagement photos and dreamy but natural wedding day photos). Robert was exceptionally easy to work with and we barely even noticed he was there on our wedding day. He is extremely talented with the camera and we ended up with hundreds of fantastic shots of our day. Robert and his assistant also came downtown Chicago to shoot our engagement photos. He was very patient and gave us great direction and he was able to get the urban feel we were looking for.
We definitely felt Robert's prices were reasonable and we are so happy with our photographs. We have and will continue to refer our friends and family to Robert Sojka Photography.

My husband and I were looking for something a little less traditional and more candid and creative for our photography. Robert provided exactly what we had asked for. We have beautiful pictures that immortalize our wedding day, as well as our engagement session. He was so flexible and accomodating, for our engagement session, he photographed my husband and I riding our vespa with Lake Michigan in and the Chicago cityscape in the background. Truely unique and professional service. Robert is a warm and trustworthy person, I would definately reccommend him to anyone!

Robert was incredible! He and Amy (his assistant) shot both our engagement photos and our wedding photos. Their work was extraordinary, and we continue to receive compliments about the wonderful colors, slick lines and funky, artistic approach he takes to his photographs. Robert was extremely flexible, helping plan and shoot a "surprise" engagement session, as well as our black & white wedding on South Beach in Miami. Overall, I'd highly recommend him to anyone in the Chicagoland area (or outside -we're from Florida!) as THE BEST photographer we've ever worked with on any project. Excellent value for the product, exceptional responsiveness and profressionalism, and overall, just great people!

Our experience with Robert was fantastic! We thought he had a great eye for unique pictures that really reflected our personalities. He utilized the setting of Chicago very well- we have some great pictures of our party out and about the city. We were also really impressed with the quality of the pictures (both printed and online), especially considering how reasonably they were priced!

I highly recommend using Robert Sojka photography. Very reasonably priced and very professional. He was a half hour early which instantly put me at peace for my wedding. Has a great eye and fun to work with.

If you are looking for a truly professional photographer, I highly recommend Robert Sojka. We have worked on a few weddings together, after which I check the photos on his website and I have found his work to be incredible. I am impressed with the photojournalistic style of his work and as a vendor, I have enjoyed working with him-he is conscious of the position of the Videogrpaher and video camera and is considerate of other vendors and guests, which always helps to create a better wedding day experience for the married couple and their guests.
