    Best Photographers & Friendly

    Claudia and her husband Chris do an outstanding job. They really know how to structure the image and have you pose along with the background. For our engagement pictures, they were able to turn them over to us within 48 hours. On top of that, they are such friendly and fun people. We had a great time doing our engagement shoots with them. I would highly recommend booking them for your big day!

    Claudia is a dream!!

    Claudia's photography at our rehearsal dinner was nothing short of magical. She brilliantly captured the essence of the night—grandparents' elation, friends' laughter, and parents' smiles—all amidst rain!

    We hadn't expected this but Claudia also made time for a stunning mini photoshoot for just me and my husband in front of our favorite Chicago restaurant. The resulting photos were not just clear and beautiful but looked straight out of a magazine.

    Beyond her exceptional skill, Claudia's professional yet gentle approach was so appreciated! She accommodated our 90-year-old grandparents with grace, pulling a chair aside for them during family portraits. She also managed to capture every detail from the setting & decor, people, and even wine & food. Her crazy fast two-week turnaround time was just the cherry on top.

    Claudia has an ability to turn moments into timeless art. She not only met our expectations but exceeded them, leaving us with a gallery of beautiful memories we'll cherish for a lifetime. Thank you, Claudia!

    I loved my weeding pictures !

    Claudia was amazing ! Her work is beautiful and my wedding pictures were everything I envision and more.

I did a lot of research before deciding on my photographer and I’m so glad I went with Claudia because she made the experience so fun for us and the pictures were just perfect !

    Best engagement photographer in Chicago

    I will say Claudia is the best photographer you can work with! I had planned to propose to my now fiancé in Chicago and wanted to capture the moment. Looking at Claudia’s profile on instagram, I was immediately in love with her work. She not only captured the moment perfectly, but even helped me by pretending to be a photographer working on her portfolio. My fiancé did not expect it and was pleasantly surprised. If you’re looking for a photographer with a great eye, she’s the one! 10/10 would recommend!

    Best photographer in Chicago

    Claudia is one of the best photographers I have worked with. She is the sweetest person and we had so much fun shooting with her. I love the way she directs a couple while shooting. I’m so glad we had the opportunity to work with her and I am looking forward to working with her again in the future.

    Amazing photographer

    Claudia is absolutely amazing. We had so much fun with our engagement shoot and Claudia didn’t seem to mind when I changed my mind about 5 times for the location haha. She is so sweet and always punctual with communication.

    I cannot recommend this photographer enough! You will not regret your decision with Claudia Jo photography.

    Absolutely amazing!!

    Claudia is absolutely AMAZING!! I found her shortly after I got engaged because finding a good photographer was one of the most important parts of wedding planning for me. She was super responsive and answered all my questions, even hopped on a phone call with me to walk me through her process. Her portfolio simply blew me away, it pretty much speaks for itself how talented she is. We scheduled our engagement session for early November and I had a very specific and extravagant idea in mind of how I wanted my engagement photos to be. Claudia took my vision and ran with it. I am not exaggerating when I say that they literally could not have turned out better!! Her direction made us feel at ease and we were able to fit in all that I wanted to do before the sun went completely down because she was able to work so efficiently and get the shots I wanted. I have been getting non stop compliments on our engagement pics and I am soo SOOO excited for our wedding in October. I can’t imagine anyone else capturing our most special day. If you are looking for a wedding photographer do yourself a favor and book her ASAP!

    Couldn't have asked for a better photographer

    I found Claudia while browsing wedding photographers before my fiancé and I were engaged and was blown away by her quality of work. I connected with her, and then my fiancé chose to hire her to photograph his surprise proposal. The photos she delivered for us (the next day!) were so beautiful. She even set up her own phone on a tripod to film the proposal while simultaneously taking pictures, and we treasure having that footage so much as well. We naturally also hired her to do our engagement photos and wedding (which will be summer 2022). She was so patient and flexible with us as we had to reschedule our engagement photo session several times. We had never done professional photos as a couple before, and she was a pro at making us feel comfortable in front of the camera and making it fun & filled with joy and laughter. We couldn't believe how beautiful our engagement photos turned out and had a difficult time narrowing them down for printing purposes! And besides her incredible talent, she's simply the kindest & most genuine person. We are so excited to meet her husband Chris as well and to have both of them photograph our wedding day — we already know we have the absolute best people for the job.

    Could not be happier with our choice!

    My husband and I had our hearts set on Claudia and her husband Chris almost immediately upon seeing their gallery photos and we could not be happier with our decision. Not only are they both absolutely wonderful people but they did a phenomenal job with our wedding photos. Claudia was very helpful in getting my husband and I to relax and be comfortable in front of the camera, she gave a steady stream of instruction and was so pleasant and fun to be around which took away all of our nerves. Her husband Chris was similarly wonderful and helped keep the atmosphere light and fun. Claudia has such a good eye for beautiful shots and the way she composes photos is astonishing. We got our photos completed and edited within 2 weeks of the wedding date and they were all breathtaking. Claudia has such an eye for capturing emotion in photos had so many good ideas for unique shots that we will now cherish forever. Claudia and Chris were attentive to our needs for the day, had excellent communication leading up the wedding, and were so professional and kind throughout the evening. They are so unbelievably sweet and genuinely kind and fun people with amazing senses of humour. We would absolutely recommend working with Claudia and are so happy we trusted our instincts and chose her to photograph such a special day for us. Thank you both again for all your hard work the day of and leading up, and we had such a blast with you guys!

    Absolutely perfect and completely blown away

    Claudia is absolutely AMAZING!! My husband and I eloped and in our one hour session she was able to capture so many beautiful moments. We were absolutely blown away by the photos. Claudia’s turn around time for getting the photos back is also super quick and they are flawless. Her editing style is so unique and she does a fantastic job at direction during the shoot. I highly recommend her and we will be using her for all our photos from now on!! We couldn’t be more pleased with how our photos turned out!! She’s wonderful

    Kindhearted photographer determined to create a romantic and relaxed experience!

    Despite being camera shy, Claudia was able to create a warm and inviting atmosphere for my husband and I. We were laughing and thoroughly enjoying ourselves with her and her husband, Chris, the entire session. Not being from Chicago, I asked for suggestions that included our courthouse ceremony, the city, and Lake Michigan. After bouncing around the city and reading our wedding vows in Lincoln Park, I was more than satisfied about her location choices. In addition to Claudia's charming personality, she was able to find a wonderful balance between direction and organic moments, capturing photos that conveyed her expert skills in lighting, framing, and creativity. Less than 24 hours later, we were scrolling through a sneak peek of our event through the lens of a skilled photographer. I could go on and on about my amazing experience with Claudia Jo Photography and will be recommending her for years to come. Thank you so much!

    The best photographer ever.

    Claudia is by far the best photographer I have come across. My fiancé hired her for our proposal and made him feel completely comfortable and look stunning in all our photos, and I thought he was not photo genic…turns out he just needed claudia to show him how to pose and be comfortable! My family has been having family shoots with her since she started photography, so the chemistry was there for sure. She is open to feedback and took my ideas into consideration. Loved working with her, an angel, sweetheart. And in love with every single photo she has taken

    Captured everything

    Helped make my day perfect and made my photos reflect how perfect it felt. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. She put in WAY more time than I anticipated at such a great cost and it was truly appreciated. She knew exactly what I was looking for and nailed it. ALSO, very helpful for brides who don’t know what they are doing!! LOL

    Claudia and her husband Chris are the BEST. Their stunning portfolio of work speaks for itself and after seeing it, I knew instantly that I wanted them to be a part of our big day. They have an unparalleled attention to detail so you can rest assured that every special moment is captured. They are a joy to work with and have such an amazing talent and eye for the most beautiful and unique shots. Claudia and Chris are so great at making you feel at ease in front of the camera. I'm so happy we chose them as our photographers and couldn't be happier with our pictures.

    Amazing photos and so easy to work with!

    Claudia is an amazing and talented photographer, and she went above and beyond to make things go smoothly on our wedding day. It was pleasure to work with her and her husband and I can’t thank them enough. They didn’t take too long for portraits and family photos on our wedding day and weren’t distracting during the ceremony and reception but we ended up with so many dreamy, beautiful and artistic photos. She has great eyes and is very quick to capture the moment. Plus, she was so supportive on our wedding day that it felt good to just have her around. She even fixed my hair when I was upset about it!! I’d recommend Claudia to anyone who is looking for a wedding/engagement photographer.

    Great photographers, great people to work with!

    Claudia Jo Photography were a pleasure to work with! Despite the stress that me and my wife were going through from all the wedding planning and everything else, they made things easy for us as far as scheduling and locations for the shoot. They are very easy to not only work with, but as well as communicate with. Being a couple that is not used to making our own poses for photos, they gave us great suggestions and in the end turned out to be really great photos! They also were very understanding of some of the rules we had for our Chapel service. Overall there is nothing to complain about their company and hope for many more future couples to consider them!
