    Hello Rose is the Best!

    Emily did our engagement and wedding photos, and we are absolutely floored with the results. For our engagement shoot, she had plenty of location recommendations for the time of year (fall) and had beautiful examples so we had an idea of what to expect before showing up. With it being the first time we were in front of a camera, Emily made it so much fun and stress free! Everything felt so natural with her guidance throughout the shoot!
    We had two shooters for the wedding day, Bridgid and Emily. On what could be an overwhelming day, they kept the photos fun and light. We had suggested a spot we love on the lakefront where Emily hadn't shot before. She took the time to make a trip the week prior to figure out all the best angles and make sure it would be perfect for our day. It ended up being everything we imagined! She also gets all the extra points for the amount of people walking on the path behind us that they took shots around and edited out for our final photos.

    They professionally wrangled our wedding party and family to get all our requested shots in an efficient manner. And made sure to capture our must-have shots. Cannot say enough good things about Emily and Bridgid as people, and their photo quality is unmatched! Best decision we made in our wedding planning process!!

    AMAZING. Emily is so talented.

    Emily is incredible. My wife and I truly loved working with her on both a proposal session and wedding ceremony/reception photos. She made us so comfortable, worked well with other vendors, was highly organized and communicative and flexible, and listened to us so carefully about the vibe we wanted and executed it perfectly. She knows Chicago so well and has a great eye for excellent photo spots. There literally aren't enough nice things we can say about her!

    The Best Photographer EVER

    Simply put, Emily was the best wedding photographer we ever could have asked for. Photo was the vendor that mattered the most to me (the bride). My dad (a hobby photographer) and I interviewed 11 photographers before settling on Emily.

    Before the wedding, Emily drove all the way to our venue to scope out the best locations for photos, texting me in real time to confirm that she was on the right track. I came to our pre-wedding meeting with a lot of specific information about what I wanted out of my wedding photos (lots of candid shots, certain angles I preferred, a "romantic" vibe overall). She was enthusiastic about my ideas and never made me feel like I was asking too much.

    When our schedule got a little thrown off, Emily rolled with the punches and made sure we still got every single shot that was important to us. She somehow simulatenously kept us moving along AND never rushed us. She and her second shooter hyped us up and made us feel so special. She had the amazing idea to pull us for a few minutes after dinner to take golden hour photos. They ended up being some of our absolute favorites. Before leaving, she double checked there weren't any additional photos we wanted. Honestly, we didn't because she'd done such a stellar job of making sure we got everything we wanted.

    And, of course, the photos turned out amazing beyond our wildest dreams. She captured all the best moments, from the tears to the laughter to the hugs to the kisses. Not a single thing was missed. The photos themselves are beautifully composed. I will recommend Emily to literally anyone who will listen. I just hope I can book her for all our non-wedding related photo needs in the future! Thank you, Emily! - Nika & Josh

    Goes Above and Beyond!

    Hiring Emily for our engagement and wedding weekend was the BEST decision!! We had a three-day Indian / Western fusion wedding, and Emily did an incredible job covering all the different events, venues, attire, and colors. Ahead of the wedding, Emily was highly responsive and provided guidance on our photo locations. During the weekend, Emily was such a JOY to be around, keeping up with the energy of our wedding party and families. She was highly flexible during the weekend while keeping to our schedule. She came early to capture all the details and rolled with the punches when we changed the location of our photos last minute. The photo turnaround for our sneak peaks was unbelievable and all the photos are incredible – truly captured the happiness and joy we felt during the weekend!

    Some finer points that are worth celebrating:
    - We were very picky on selecting a photographer who could photograph and edit mixed race couples and families well: Emily provided many examples ahead of booking and delivered on our photos as well!!
    - This was Emily’s first full-scale Indian wedding, and you would never be able to tell!! She captured all the right moments in the most beautiful way. In a traditional South Indian ceremony, there are many action shots and Emily’s ability to capture everything on the mandap blew me away.
    - Unfortunately, Tyler was busy for our wedding weekend, but Emily selected the two best second shooters we could ask for – Corey Bienert for Saturday and Aaron Bean for Sunday. All three of them matched the fun yet calming personality and vibes of our family, friends, and overall day.

    All in all, if we did it all over again, we would book Emily every time!

    Amazing Photos!

    Emily and Tyler were a dream to work with. They are professional and fun. They immediately made us feel comfortable in the camera (even though I was extremely nervous!) and the photos are amazing. I loved getting a sneak peak and we got the full gallery in a very timely manner. Thank you Emily and Tyler!

    Stunning photos, 10/10 service!

    Emily and Tyler were a dream to work with on our wedding day! All of the photos Emily took were absolutely stunning. She made us feel so at ease and also made the many hours of taking photos fun and enjoyable. She was quick to respond and very professional throughout the process. Not having to stress about her reliability or performance on the day of was a huge weight lifted off my shoulders because that was not the case for other vendors. I can't recommend Hello Rose Photography enough!

    Absolutely Stunning!

    Hello Rose Photography captured our day to perfection. Leading up to our wedding day, Emily was responsive and knowledgeable. She asked great questions and helped us determine the right timeline and style of pictures. On the day of our wedding, Emily and Tyler made my husband and I feel so comfortable posing. They captured stunning pictures that we will cherish forever! I would hire Hello Rose Photography again in a heartbeat.

    Amazing photographers! recommend to everyone!

    I almost cannot even put into words how amazing Emily and Tyler are! They were our wedding photographers along with an engagement shoot. Our pictures turned out amazing. Emily and Tyler did a great job of listening to our needs and wants during planning and on the day of. I have gotten so many complements from family and friends about how great our photographers were and how beautiful our pictures are. I look forward to hiring them again in the future.

    Absolutely Amazing

    So I went to go update my review to say that 1 year later and I still cannot stop staring at my wedding photos and want to wallpaper my house with them, only to find that I never finished posting my review! Sorry for being the worst bride ever!

    Emily and Tyler are absolutely fantastic and I would recommend them to anyone in a heart beat! Emily and her husband, Tyler, traveled to Savannah to shoot my wedding Labor Day Weekend 2018 and I could not have asked for a better team. From the initial contact, Emily was responsive and professional. She made sure to get all the details, including shots we specifically wanted. On the day of, they both made everyone feel sooooo comfortable! I usually hate being photographed but I had so much fun that it wasn't awkward at all. She helped keep me calm during some of the craziness behind the scenes - like my wedding planner not showing up and no one know what was going on - and stepped up to help whenever she could. Emily and Tyler played well off of each other, got everyone laughing, and found shots that no one else would. They went out the day before to scout the area since it was a destination wedding for us too.

    As for the actual pictures, they did not disappoint. My pictures were done much sooner than expected and are absolutely stunning. Like I said, I usually hate how I look in pictures and there is not a single bad photo - you can't even tell how sweaty I am! I literally want to put the pictures everywhere because they are so amazing. I would book Hello Rose Photography a million times over. If you are thinking about it, just do it! You will not be disappointed!

    Great photographers and experience

    Choosing a photographer for our wedding day was one of the most researched and hardest decisions we made and we're so happy we chose Hello Rose Photography! We first met Emily during our engagement session and she instantly felt like a friend and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Living out of state and with limited time to travel, she was very accommodating and made time for us on a weekend. Our session was in the middle of the day (not ideal lighting) and our pictures turned out to be amazing!
    Leading up to our wedding day we communicated mostly by email and Emily was always quick to respond and answer all of the questions that we had. Come wedding day, both Emily and Tyler were so great to work with. So many family and friends commented on how nice, organized and professional they were throughout the day. The rain threw some of our plans off for pictures and they were both so calm and quick to make changes when we needed to. They were helpful and patient with directing and posing our large family shots and we never felt pushed to pose any certain way that wasn't "us".
    We are absolutely in love with how our pictures turned out and feel that they captured our happiness and day perfectly! They delivered on the style and shots we were hoping for and captured so many emotions and little moments throughout the day which were super fun to look back on. We were impressed with how quickly we got our pictures back too! We couldn't be happier with our experience working with Emily and Tyler and couldn't recommend them enough! You won't regret it!

    Couldn't Be Happier

    Emily and Tyler were a dream to work with, hands down our favorite vendor! Emily was extremely professional and prompt with email communication leading up to the wedding and was always available for questions /advice. Emily and Tyler made us and our wedding party feel extremely comfortable throughout the day and it felt like we were hanging out with old college friends. The quality of work exceeded our expectations and Emily captured so many wonderful moments of our family and friends throughout the day. We wanted some iconic Chicago photos to go with our iconic venue and Emily more than delivered. Thank you so much!

    An easy choice

    I found Emily based off this beautiful picture I saw off Instagram. It was this amazing photo and I just though to myself.....I want that. I messaged her and she got back to me very quick with dates/pricing and ideas. I had a intimate wedding with less than 20 people. I did not want a huge wedding but I did want beautiful photos. Emily delivered that and more. My photos are genuine, authentic, intimate and simply look like my husband and I. Every time I pass my wedding photos in my hallway, I stop and smile. I recommend Emily to anyone. Whether you are eloping, having a huge affair or anything between. Emily is very professional, kind and easy going. I plan on using her for my future baby photos!

    More than we even asked for!

    I used Emily for my engagement and wedding photos and could not be any happier. Booking a photographer in my opinion was one of the biggest decisions of the day.

    I fell in love with how Emily captured natural moments. I wasn't looking for anything staged. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable and natural during the entire process. She suggested great poses that weren't to "staged" and make sure that EVERY single picture we wanted to get on our wedding day was taken. I emailed Emily a lot during the wedding process and she always responded in a timely manner. I knew that I was in good hands on our special day.

    Exceeded our Wedding Day Dreams!

    As a marketer and someone who is married to an art director, finding the right photographer was key. There was a lot of research and when we discovered Emily, we knew her style was just what we were looking for on our day. During the engagement session, Emily knew how nervous I was and she knew just how to loosen us up and get us to capture the perfect moments. On our wedding day, we had a very lengthy shot list and Tyler and Emily worked together to ensure that every photo was crossed off that list. It was winter, so finding the right locations was harder than normal. They did a lot of pre research themselves and thought of areas that we did not think of and became better than what we had originally imagined. Overall, their sweet, calm and professional manner helped us pull off the best wedding photos a couple could dream of and it was a perfect day.

    Highly Recommend!!

    I can’t say enough about Emily and Tyler! They were amazing to work with and produced some great photos from our big day. Emily, Tyler(my husband.. yes they have the same name) and I scheduled an engagement photo shoot about 6 times before it actually happened (because of weather) and Emily was so patient and accommodating! Because of reasons having nothing to do with Emily and Tyler, we were running pretty far behind schedule leading up to the ceremony. They both calmly made sure we got all the photos we previously discussed and still had fun in the process! (My) Tyler and I truly enjoyed working with them the day of. My big concern with the photos was that they were going to look forced, posed and unnatural. I feel that Emily really listened to that and made sure that we felt comfortable while taking the pictures to create a really nice and natural result. Before, during and even after our wedding she was so helpful and available for any questions I had. It didn’t hurt that she and Tyler got married at the same venue and had great personal experience to provide!

    AMAZING photographer!

    Emily is an angel!!!! Everything was perfect from start to finish! She’s quick, efficient, and SO talented. Her second shooter was her husband and I loved the dynamic they brought to my wedding day. When things got crazy they were calm and were still able to capture great photos through it all. She took a good mix of traditional and candid pictures. Highly recommend to anyone getting married in the Chicago/Indiana area!

    Don't LOOK further, you found it!

    First off let me start by saying, if you want the best photos, without all the awkward posing, stop your searching and look no further then Emily. If you cant already tell from her work on her sites, her pictures are very natural, with very little to no posing. We worked with Emily for both our engagement and wedding. Working with her was a breeze. She made us feel at ease and comfortable and was very professional. Even during the planning process, she had me thinking of things that I would have never thought about without her. We were so happy with the final product of our wedding photos, and could not get enough compliments for our family and friends. THANK YOU EMILY!

    Incredible.

    We love Emily and Tyler!! Our engagement and wedding photos were more beautiful than I had ever hoped, and we loved working with them! They're both relaxed, fun, and so easy to be around in the midst of the craziness of the day (my husband later commented on how they felt like a seamless addition to the wedding party!) But they were also punctual, responsive, and thorough. I was overwhelmed by so much of the wedding planning, but Emily's thoughtfulness and calm confidence put me at ease. They're SO talented- it was easy to trust them. And they’re so flexible and gracious- they both adapted quickly to navigate difficult management at the venue, and pretty terrible lighting the whole day! Emily was attentive in wanting to capture any moments and vibe we were hoping for, but also had creative ideas for photos that turned out to be our favorites! She even captured sweet, small moments that I had missed throughout the day, but that were so fun to see later. AND she even had our photos edited and back to us within weeks! Seriously- I couldn’t recommend them more highly!!

    Incredible!

    We LOVE Emily!!!! She did an amazing job capturing so many moments throughout our wedding day--she has such a natural style, which we love. She was amazing to work with as well--warm, fun, easy going...we felt like we could be completely ourselves with her and it was reflected in our pictures. We had such a great experience working with Emily (and her husband Tyler) and are thankful for her gifts as a photographer!! We have pictures that we will cherish forever! THANK YOU, Emily!!

    Its like you stepped out of a magazine!

    Hello Rose Photography did an incredible job with our wedding! Every photo captured the moment beautifully. Emily and her team made my husband and I look like movie stars. The photos are breath taking. I had an idea of what to expect and they more than exceeded my expectations. Every penny we spent on our photos was worth it and more. We had more than average requests for photos and they delivered. I can't say enough. The pictures were my one thing I was willing to spend on for my wedding. The day goes by so fast I feel I missed so much and barely remember the details so the pictures are invaluable to me as Emily and her team got it all. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for capturing our wedding and eternalizing the best day of our new lives together!

    Working with Emily was a dream come true. She was the first vendor I booked because I was obsessed with her style.

    She was incredibly responsive and easy to work with from the beginning.

    Our engagement pictures captured perfectly who we are. She made it so comfortable to be ourselves and it shows in the photos. She would take so many pictures without us even knowing so everything felt natural.

    Our wedding day with her was a dream. All of our photos are incredible and we couldn’t be happier with them. She made sure all of our must have shots were captured and managed to wrangle our huge bridal party.

    She is worth every penny to have memories last a lifetime!

    Working with Emily for our wedding photographer was absolutely amazing!! Our engagement photo shoot was the perfect opportunity to get comfortable with Emily and in front of the camera, and we were totally excited about the result of our engagement photos. The days leading up to the wedding, Emily was incredibly responsive and made sure we had covered any and all details for the big day. One thing I loved about working with Emily is she is totally flexible in making sure you get the shots you want but staying true to her vision. Emily had her husband as her second shooter, which I absolutely love. What better way to capture our love on our wedding day than two love birds themselves! Emily and Tyler kept us on track and made sure we got all the photos I had requested. My friends and family were just raving about them days later, how kind and sweet they were and how they seemed to be everywhere at the wedding getting all the shots. Getting our wedding photos back, I was totally blown away. Not only are they gorgeous photos, but you can really see our love and happiness in each photo. Photography was the most important piece of wedding planning, as you have your wedding photos forever. Totally over the moon about our photos that we can treasure forever. Thank you Emily for capturing our big day!!

    Hello Rose Photography was our daughter's engagement and wedding photographer. Emily, the owner, is a master at taking the perfect moment in time and putting it in a picture! She is helpful, professional and accommodating. The engagement shoot was downtown Chicago and Emily walked for many blocks with my daughter and her fiancee to get just the right location! For the wedding, Emily arrived promptly and immediately went to work taking pictures of the day. She was never flashy or overbearing in her presence. She quietly went about her work, capturing every moment that was special to us. We are still waiting on the wedding photos (it's only been 3 days since the wedding, afterall!), but I know that they will be as spectacular as the engagement photos were.

    Hello Rose Photography is based out of Valparaiso, Indiana, but Emily has no problem coming to Chicago and the suburbs to capture your special moments in time. She is worth her weight in gold! I know that in years to come, we will look at the wedding photos that Emily took and will be so very happy with our decision to have her as our photographer!

    Hello Rose was the perfect choice for our Engagement and Wedding Photos. Emily even ate the eggs we made during our engagement home shoot! She had great ideas, listened well to ours, and made us feel so comfortable and at ease that we were able to capture true and genuine moments. She's not your loud and bossy photographer- she quietly steers you in the right direction with her great eye for detail. Emily & Tyler captured beautiful details of the big day and great couple/wedding party portraits. But best of all, they captured really really wonderful candid photos of expressions and emotion throughout the day. I could make a flip book of my Dad's first look and of the speeches (both of the best man, maid-of-honor, and laughing guests at the tables). They even stayed an extra hour at the reception to fill guest requests for group portraits on the stairs. We couldn't be happier with our choice of Hello Rose to capture our special day forever.

    Emily and Tyler Talsma did an amazing job with our engagement photoshoot and wedding photos. We haven't even received all the prints from the wedding but the 20 or so photos we have received are perfection! They captured our personalities and the life and spirit of the wedding. They were so intentional in all of their work and communication from start to finish. We are blessed to have them celebrate and share in our special day together!

    If I could get married every year, I'd hire Hello Rose Photography every time (thank God I don't have to in real life). Emily was very professional, responsive, and overall displayed a super sweet and relaxed demeanor. Most importantly, our photographs were nothing short of stunning. People kept calling it the celebrity wedding. That is speaks to the way everything was captured.

    We couldn't be happier with Emily's work for our engagement photos and wedding photos. She made us feel so comfortable and natural on our big day. Emily has an excellent eye for details and capturing little moments. We are grateful to have had our wedding day captured so beautifully and will look back on our photos fondly for years to come.

    Emily is so wonderful!!!! Me and my husband worked with her for our engagement and wedding day photos and we could not have been more happy with the way everything turned out! She was so flexible and open to our every need during the whole process . We felt we could be silly and romantic in front of her, which is so important when you are getting shots of such an intimate and significant day! She has great attention to detail and is very creative, which makes her photography so unique. She captured the engagement and wedding day so beautifully and we could not be more thankful for that. Definitely go with Emily! You will not be disappointed. I promise!!!

    We hired Emily for our wedding this past September and are so happy we did. She was so easy to work with, quick to respond, and truly captured our relationship in her shots. She made sure she knew what we wanted from her prior to the day so the timeline could go smoothly. Wedding day her and her husband (second shooter) were fun to work with and took a good amount of control so we didn't have to stress about anything. We have already gotten our pictures and love them all! She has a unique style that focuses more on raw moments, which attracted us to her work. She puts so much love into her work and it truly shows! Highly recommend!

    Emily truly has an amazing gift and we feel so fortunate to have had her photograph our wedding. She was really flexible and ran around to multiple locations throughout the day to provide us with as many photos as possible. I love that her photos tell a story of our day and she got them back to us extremely quickly! We've received so many compliments by family and friends about how amazing the quality of the photos are. We could not have been more pleased!

    We loved our experience working with Emily! We worked with her for an engagement shoot earlier this year, as well. We felt a little anxious about taking pictures- how to pose, etc.- but Emily was so easy to work with and good about giving prompts, that we immediately felt relaxed with her.

    Before we even got our photos back, our parents and our guests were already raving about her and her assistant, Josh, on how professional and friendly they were on the wedding day. Emily got our photos back to us very quickly after the wedding, and they turned out amazing! We received a perfect blend of traditional posed shots, as well as the more natural-feeling shots that look great compiled in a book and will help us to re-live all the little moments of the day. I think my dad's friend perfectly summarized her work after seeing our gallery on her blog- "These are the kind of photos that everybody wishes they had of their wedding day." We would have to agree! Thanks again, Emily!

    It was an absolute pleasure working with HelloRosePhotography for our engagement and wedding pictures. Picking a photographer was one of our hardest decisions and we are so happy with the quality of the photography and the unique and special moments that Emily was able to capture.

    On a day that can be a flurry of events and full of emotion, Emily and her husband were a calming and wonderful presence. We were so pleased to not only have such great photos, but also to have the opportunity to get to know Emily and her husband during the process. Thank you HelloRosePhotography for going above and beyond in so many ways. We hope to see you again someday!

    Hello Rose Photography is absolutely amazing. Emily is wonderful to work with and truly has such a gift. She has an eye for the perfect shots in the perfect locations and I love her photography style - kind of whimsical and romantic. She captured our day so wonderfully and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone searching for a photographer for their wedding day. So many people have told me how breathtaking our photos are and it's all thanks to her! She was also very speedy with getting the photos back to us which was a plus!

    Definitely book with Hello Rose! It was such a pleasure working with Emily and her second shooter, Josh. We had the best time with them. They were super respectful, got every shot we wanted, and made sure that they were only ever as intrusive as they needed to be. I was especially impressed with their courtesy when my husband and I did our "first look" pictures - Emily and Josh were there to capture the moment perfectly, and once they did that, they let us know that they were going to give us some privacy so that we could enjoy that moment as a couple! We did not expect that, but it was so appreciated!
    Emily was so kind and so pleasant throughout the whole process. And the final product was so beautiful - we still get teary-eyed looking over our pictures and re-living the experience. Everyone who has seen the photos has gushed over how perfectly they seemed to capture to atmosphere of the day. We couldn't be happier about that! If we were to get married 10 times over, we would choose to work with Hello Rose Photography every time!

    Using Hello Rose Photography is one of the best decisions I made during the wedding planning process. She was so kind and professional. being photographed was a fairly novel experience, but she made it very comfortable. The images we received were stunning. They really showed what happened at the wedding and did not feel posed at all. 100% recommend!!

    Emily was an incredible photographer. She was extremely communicative, helpful, and willing to do everything that we requested. She makes you instantly feel comfortable around her, and so both my husband and I and our families felt at ease. She is wonderful and I can't recommend her more highly!

    Emily is a true gem. Her eye for intimate and authentic moments are what make her unique. My husband and I find ourselves going back to our photos often and remember the exact moment they are taken, something truly special.

    I was also impressed by Emily's flexibility; she traveled from her home in Chicago to West Michigan for our wedding and was always around and ready to capture little moments.

    Lastly, Emily is very timely and curteous in her communications. The wedding planning season is busy and blurry and Emily stays on top of communications throughout.

    It was a pleasure working with Emily and we look forward to taking photos of our family in the future.

    Hello Rose is a joy to work with. She is flexible, she listens, she is more than prepared, and she is someone you'd want at you're wedding even if she wasn't the photographer. She cares about your character and ensures the moments that are important to you and moments that express you as a couple are captured - and are captured beautifully. I would get married again just to use her as a photographer!

    Hello rose photography captured my wedding in June and I couldn't be happier! She was very professional, had so many photo ideas prepared and I couldn't have had a better experience. We also used her for our engagement shoot and it was so fun! We got over 1,000 pictures back from our wedding, she truly captured every single special moment. I love love love how they turned out! We couldn't have made a better decision chosing them for our wedding.

    Natural, fun and stress-free experience

    We used Emily and Tyler for all of our wedding photograph needs and were very pleased with all of our photos. They made the trip to Milwaukee for our engagement photos, which was nice to get to know them and become comfortable with their shooting style before our wedding day. We liked the idea of having a couple shoot our photos and was something that was important to us as we felt they would bring good vibes and a sense of love and fun; which is exactly what they brought to our big day. They made everything feel natural. They were always high energy and worked so well off of each other, ensuring that they captured all of the important moments of the day. They captured so many emotions and special moments that I didn’t even know occurred that day. We were shocked and very pleased at how quickly they got the final photos back to us! Every photo Emily and Tyler provided us were stunning and beyond exceeded our expectations. Emily’s editing skills are top notch. We had such a pleasant experience with Hello Rose and would definitely recommend them to any newlyweds looking for a laid back, fun couple that will deliver wonderful wedding photos.
