Chris did an amazing job of capturing the memories of our wedding day. He went above and beyond to find photo shot locations by arriving early to walk around our venue, and implemented all requests and ideas we gave him. He helped us stick to our timeline, while also capturing all the pictures we hoped for. The photos turned out so beautifully, with so many details captured perfectly. I would request Chris as a wedding photographer to anyone getting married soon! -

Chris was the absolute best! I was indecisive and he was helpful and respectful of my feelings the whole time. He was such a great sport and even crouched into the bushes to get the perfect show. We received our edits quickly and could tell that this is really his element! We are incredibly happy with his work! -

Chris was amazing he did our Engagement photos and our wedding photos. When I tell you he’s amazing it’s because he’s such a kind hearted person, very understanding and very patient with me when it came to my big day decisions. Chris was always there for me with any questions I had since this was my first wedding I had many and he was always there to answer them for me. He was also very understanding to any changes so made before and during my wedding. He was the only photographer I had with over a few hundred guests and he was capturing every moment I hoped! I highly recommend Chris for any photo sessions he’s very nice and professional. -

Chris was very prompt to respond to my photography inquiry. When Chris and I met, I initially wanted a second shooter. Chris informed me that he felt confident that he could capture our day himself so we let him do his thing! Leading up to the wedding, Chris was always willing to answer any of my questions and even help with the timeline. The day of the wedding, Chris arrived on time, calm and collected, and even got started early! He knew some really great spots to go around our venue to take bridal party portraits. Being in front of his camera felt extremely natural. Chris knew that the reception was an important part for him to capture. We... -

Chris was the perfect choice for our engagement and wedding photos. His professional and high-quality style of work were apparent from the beginning in the way he worked with us to plan the locations, timing, and sequence of photos for our engagement shoot. We did our engagement photos in a variety of indoor and outdoor locations and Chris executed incredibly well given the huge variety of lighting conditions. Moreover, he exhibited great creativity in the way he improvised several shots in an art museum, which produced some of our favorite photos. On our wedding day itself he was able to photograph all of the standard wedding images while also managing to discretely capture many unique moments. He was able... -

Chris was absolutely amazing throughout our engagement and wedding! He communicated well, pre-planned, and re-planned when the timeline changed! He was prompt and took the lead during sessions! We needed a strong photographer to get us through this very important event and he was there every step of the way! The best part was that he gives access to all photos taken and they were AMAZING! -

Chris was wonderful to work with! From our first zoom meeting until the last moments as we left the reception he was focused on making things great to us! His work is unmatched. Truly the best option for wedding photos! -

Chris was so sweet, professional, and flexible with us! The pictures look better than could have even imagined. My bridesmaid said he captured everyone’s personality perfectly, which is so true. He was fun to work with but still extremely professional (even around my tipsy bridesmaids haha!). If you are questioning booking him, I say do it! You won’t regret it. -

Alaina Sent on 07/26/20215 stars isn't enough!
We wanted to start off by saying that we were a little nervous about booking a photographer that we didn't use for our engagement photos, we didn't know if we would click with the photographer, if they would understand us, or capture the right moments while making us feel comfortable. With that being said Chris was AMAZING to work with from the start. He was able to work with our budget and walked us through his customizable packages to ensure we got everything we were looking for. We chatted for over an hour going over details and just getting to know each other and by the end of the call, we knew we wanted to book Chris for our... -

Allison Sent on 05/17/2021Beautiful photography from a responsive local photographer
Chris was absolutely amazing. To start, he accommodated our complicated schedules to schedule a beautiful family engagement session (second marriage for both, 4 kids in sports between us, life is hectic!). Chris was extremely easy to work with and super responsive. He made sure to capture all of the special moments. His editing was REMARKABLE. I can't get over how beautiful our wedding photos turned out. I absolutely love them. I'm not sure how I will ever decide which prints to get enlarged and hang in our home because their are so many amazing photos to choose from. His photographer was so fantastic, our wedding venue chose one of the pictures of us to be as their main photo on their website. Best photographer around! -

Claire Sent on 10/27/2020Absolutely Incredible!!!
Chris did an excellent job photographing our wedding day! He arrived early in the day to capture candid shots while getting ready, both for the bridal party and groomsmen. He seemed to be everywhere at once, managing to get pictures that I didn’t even know were happening! Our wedding party portraits turned out phenomenal. Chris did a great job of coordinating everyone for posed shots while also taking transition photos that truly showed everyone’s personalities and emotions. He was also able to capture our ceremony from all angles. We got plenty of pictures of our vows and ring exchanges while also getting photos of our guests’ reactions. With both the groom and I having large families in attendance, family... -

I can't begin to describe how awesome Chris is at his job. To be honest you can tell it's not even a job for him, it's a calling. He is an unbelievably talented photographer. He shot my wedding and I have only seen the sneak peek and I can't even put into words how beautiful they looked. I would highly recommend him for any of your events. He is your guy! You won't regret choosing him! Thank you again Chris McGuire Photography. You are fantastic! -

I am so glad we chose Chris McGuire to capture our wedding. He is a very talented photographer and I'm so happy with how our photos turned out. He was very professional and punctual. It was clear to me that he came prepared and focused. Chris helped me tweak our itinerary which I appreciated. He also helped to keep things moving along smoothly during the day, especially during the family and bridal party photos. He was very assertive when leading our group. He really respected our vision and seemed to grasp what we wanted out of our wedding photography. I was super excited to receive sneak peeks a few days after our wedding and the full collection in less than 3 weeks! I highly recommend Chris! Wonderful job! -

Chris was the perfect photographer for our special day -- supremely talented, reasonably priced, personable especially when dealing with portrait photo chaos in the freezing cold, and overall just fabulous. Our pictures are gorgeous and we cannot thank him enough for capturing the spirit of our day so that we can remember it forever. We cannot recommend him enough. Thank you so much again, Chris! -

Mary Sent on 10/15/2019Chris Captured Everything!
We are so thrilled by the photos Chris captured, both posed and candid. We were especially pleased by how easily he was to work with before and on the day of the wedding. I have observed photographers who were grouchy and demanding and cast negativity on special events. I have also observed less than professsional behavior at a few weddings. Chris was somehow VERY layed back, very professional, AND was able to get every picture we planned in advance. Trust us, you will not be disappointed in him or his work! -

Believe the good reviews! Chris spent our 2.5 year engagement with us keeping in contact and answering questions. Chris is the most amazing gem in the middle of Illinois. Chris made us completely comfortable during our engagement session,and captured beautiful photos. Our wedding day was somehow even more beautiful! Chris listened to our requests and and delivered on exactly what we wanted! Chris was charming,clever,and so easy to work with. He went above any expectations and dreams 😍 -

Chris was phenomenal to work with from beginning to end! He took the time to learn about us and what we wanted. He was extremely responsive, and went the extra mile before, during, and after our wedding. We got both our engagement and wedding photos back way earlier than expected, and couldn't be happier with the final product. Chris' work was worth every penny, and we plan on hiring him for future photography needs! -

We had other Photographers in mind before we chose Chris McGuire Photography. Once we saw his work and met with him, we decided to hire him and it was a great decision. Chris was very patient and flexible with us when it came to wanting to pick the perfect colorful Fall day for our Engagement Session, and the shots turned out awesome. He was even more accommodating on our Wedding Day. What was supposed to be a beautiful Fall November Day, turned out to be a Cold Snowy Day and yes, we got married outside in the snow! Chris and his assistant rolled with it and captured the moment beautifully. We highly recommend Chris McGuire Photography. -

Chris was absolutely amazing. He was very responsive to my many emails, he worked with me to create a package that included everything I needed and in the budget I set! My family (and myself) couldnt believe how amazing he was on my wedding day! He seriously seemed to be in all the right places at all the right times. I'm honestly not sure how he does it but you wont regret trusting him to capture your big day perfectly!! -
