Gavin Sent on 02/05/2022WOWWWWWWW- Truly A First Class Experience
We were lucky enough to have Jason and Alex capture our engagement (Chicago 2019) and destination wedding (Mexico 2021)! They were dedicated to not only capturing amazing photos, but making sure our wedding weekend in Mexico was perfect. Jason coordinated behind the scenes with our wedding planner and was prompt to respond to communication leading up to the big day. Jason and Alex are extremely creative and work hard (army crawled through the sand!) to capture beautiful shots. We have received so many compliments on how amazing our photographer was and we will cherish these photos forever. We have not only found a lifetime photographer, but also someone we can now call a friend. Thank you, Jason Kaczorowski Photography. -

Sarah Sent on 02/12/2026Would recommend Jason to any & everyone I know
We worked with Jason & Ryan for both our engagement photos and wedding photos. They did such an amazing job for both - from the planning process to execution day of, everything was incredibly well organized, flowed seamlessly, and all of our wishes were met/accommodated (even when they changed last minute). In both cases, we got our photos back incredibly quickly as well; I've heard horror stories from friends who have to wait months.
Quick additional shout out that we got all of the expected photos, and are in love with them, but the action shots and artistic shots that we got are absolutely stunning. I'd tell any and all of my friends to work with them. -

Amazing Experience
From the first phone call with Jason, I knew he was the right guy for the job. I was planning a surprise proposal and he helped talk me through all the possible locations and timelines for how it would go down. He was very genuine when answering questions and helped guide me to the most efficient approach. I decided on a location that required a permit and Jason handled that process for me. After deciding when and where, I was paired with the photographer Sam.
My girlfriend had guessed the proposal was happening that day and was joking the entire ride into the city. Thankfully with the help of Sam, we were able to throw her off right before popping the question.
Sam had great direction and supported us throughout the process making sure we were comfortable the entire time. He was open to ideas as well as having great shots pre-planned out to fill the time we had him booked for.
We did the proposal plus a 60 minute portrait session. With our emotions running high, we had a great time and the 60 minutes flew by. For our location it was the perfect amount of time without feeling rushed or feeling like we didn’t get enough shots.
For anyone on the edge about booking, the quality and professionalism of Jason and Sam was beyond my expectations and I couldn't imagine going any other route. -

Sanmith Sent on 02/29/2024Feedback - Thank you for capturing our special day
I want to extend my deepest gratitude for the exceptional photography service provided by Jason's team, especially Ryan [photographer], during our surprise proposal. The captured moments truly reflect the professionalism and dedication of Jason's entire team.
From our first contact, I was impressed by the meticulous attention and care you provided. Jason's thorough instructions and the various proposal execution options reassured me that we were in capable hands. Jason's guidance on Ryan's approach and capturing of the special moment was invaluable and helped us visualize the unfolding of the event. Ryan's exceptional work and unwavering professionalism on the proposal day truly captured the essence of the moment, delivering stunning photos that exceeded our expectations.
Jason's proactive approach in ensuring perfection, including the thoughtful and reassuring updates on the weather forecast, showcased your genuine investment in surpassing our expectations. Jason K's generous offer to retouch all our photos as a complimentary service was also greatly appreciated. The level of care and dedication demonstrated throughout the process truly sets Jason's team apart. We are deeply grateful for the beautiful memories captured and will cherish them for years to come. Thank you, Jason, and your team, for the exceptional service provided. -

The Best You Can Possibly Get
I cannot thank Jason and Alex enough for capturing our big day! My wife and I used Jason and Alex’s services for our wedding in Cleveland this weekend and they were incredible! They managed to capture every single moment of the day and discovered some beautiful spots at our photo locations that we didn’t even know existed! We are obsessed with the pics we have received already from the wedding and CANNOT WAIT to see the rest! Not only did they exceed our expectations but they are also wonderful people who we feel honored to have met! Thank you, Jason and Alex! You made our dream wedding a reality. -

This is who you want to capture your special day
Jason and his assistant Alex made our wedding day memories extra special, in a way which I did not think was possible. He really captured the vibe of our big day so well, and we’ve only scratched the surface of what he’s shot (we’re really looking forward to the final delivery, but he turned around some incredible shots within hours of our event ending). He really has a great eye and is effecient with his shooting process.
He also scouted out some locations ahead of time for a sunset session with us, and those pictures turned out incredible as well.
Aside from being both easy to work with and extremely professional, Jason gave us great all-around good advice for the wedding day that was invaluable. He put us at ease quickly and that helped make our photos all the more natural—our personalities really shine through.
I even handed Jason my phone at one point to take a few photos after they had put their equipment away, and the photos he took with my phone were stunning! Way better than anything I take with the same device.
Just goes to show you it’s not the tool, it’s the artist!
We can’t recommend Jason enough—and would hire him again in a heartbeat for a future special event, wedding or otherwise. Worth every penny! -

Mat B. Sent on 09/13/202310/10 Incredible experience - you won't be dissapointed
I worked with Jason and Sam for a proposal shoot and I cannot recommend them enough for capturing the perfect moment! Jason’s knowledge and tips are unmatched. He made me feel so on top of things and went so far above and beyond from helping with location, the whole days plan, and even keeping up with weather reports for that day. Neither my Fiancé nor I are from Chicago, so his insights were a TREMENDOUS benefit that made the event and celebration so much better. Sam, our photographer, was super fun and a great coach and is incredibly skilled in his craft. My Fiancé and I are absolutely blown away with the pictures he captured that we will have forever. Jason and his team have great character and energy and working with them was by far the best investment I made for our proposal day. If you’re considering getting a photographer and ESPECIALLY if you’re from out of town – go with Jason and his team. You won’t be disappointed! -

Peter Sent on 09/11/2023Jason Kaczorowski Photography is the best!
I highly recommend Jason Kaczorowski Photography to anyone! Jason and his team helped make our surprise proposal a super special day because of how prepared and experienced they are. Jason, Sam, and their website made research, booking, communication, and execution of the surprise super easy. They helped me think of all the details and grabbed some amazing shots of the moment itself. I received our highlights and full gallery of shots super quickly. Thank you again Jason and Sam! -

Smooth Communication & Talented Photographers
My fiancé hired jason & team to help capture our surprise proposal and I couldn’t be happier with how the photos came out. They made sure to capture every second of the proposal (including the beautiful skyline) and the candid shots came out better than I could imagine. We were eager to get the photos the same day and they were super responsive and got us the entire album to us that same evening. I highly recommend! -

Engagement photographer
Jason and his team were amazing! I had never been to Chicago and my now fiancé has always wanted to ice skate in Chicago. Given that i had never been there i had no idea of any special locations, time of day or even time of year for my engagement proposal. Once i had set off early December, Jason lead me down the right path and everything was flawless. Not only did he give me suggestions but he spent valuable one-on-one time with me over the phone, made detailed suggestions, sent photos of previous engagements, kept up with weather reporting, created a backup plan and even suggested the perfect restaurant and photo location. My fiancé and I could not be happier with Jason and his team! -

Robert Sent on 10/03/2022Absolutely the best choice!
We cannot say enough good things about Jason and Alex. We asked Jason to do our engagement photos and were so impressed with how prepared, professional, and thorough he was that we asked him to photograph our wedding as well. Every step of the way, Jason and Alex thought of everything to put us at ease. Even Jason’s website is a phenomenal resource to anyone planning an engagement or a wedding.
The photographs were important to us and we never had a doubt that they would be great considering how knowledgeable Jason and Alex are. The pictures are back now and we love both what they captured and the finished images. We will order many prints and albums on their Black Friday Sale. My wife and I would absolutely recommend Jason and Alex for Engagement, Wedding, or any other photography you might need.

Dan Sent on 06/19/2022Book Jason ASAP
Jason (and Alex) were an absolute blast to work with for our wedding at the Rookery. The pictures we got were absolutely breathtaking, and they both did such a fantastic job. We picked Jason immediately after seeing his previous photos at The Rookery and knew he’d be the perfect photographer for our wedding. A couple of days before our wedding, Jason reached out to us about possible rain and came up with several alternate options for our first look and other photos since we couldn’t be outside. Jason is very responsive and respectful, and will do everything he can to make your wedding an experience to remember. We also had Jason take some engagement photos, and we were so happy with how those turned out. Book Jason as soon as you can for your wedding – you will be floored with his beautiful work!

Savannah Sent on 04/02/2022Spectacular Addition to an Amazing Day
Jason and Alex were amazing to work with. They worked discretely with my now fiancé to go over and plan what was needed. Jason also helped in suggestions when plans had to be altered. I also had no idea that there was a photographer around me let alone two! They made the rest of the engagement pictures fun and easy as they gave us suggestions on how to pose and how to place our hands. The pictures came out looking beautiful and they really captured the essence of joy that we had in those moments. We will treasure these pictures for years to come as we are able to look back to this special and intimate moment. Thank you guys so much for your amazing work. It was so fun to shoot with you! -

The BEST Chicago Engagement Photographer!
Jason was phenomenal. We had a rainy day in Chicago when we visited. I was told he worked with my fiancé all day figuring out the best location for us that wouldn't be too rainy but still would have beautiful views of the city. A last minute decision on location was made and apparently Jason showed up within 30 minutes and waited for us in the rain. Fortunately, the rain stopped just in time. I was taken by complete surprise. Jason was there to make our special moment something we'll be able to remember forever. If you're looking for a surprise engagement session for you significant other I HIGHLY recommend contacting Jason to get the priceless photos you want. He captured every moment and was so kind and great to work with. We love you Jason! Great quality photos, amazing person, quick turn around, and overall an amazing experience. Thank you Jason! -

Ashley Sent on 02/04/2022The best photographer, hands down
Jason couldn’t have been a better photographer. Our photos turned out beautiful and unique. I had specifically asked for some artsy and unique shots and he delivered- big time! He shot at a venue he hadn’t before and you would have thought it was his 100th wedding there, he has a great eye for capturing the most important moments with an artistic flare. We had some really cool silhouette shots, reflections, wide angle, overhead shots- this man does it all!! Including beautiful and classic family portraits that are bright and clear. Stunning work- we couldn’t be happier that he was available to capture our wedding -

I met Jason 30 mins before I proposed to my girlfriend. We got to chatting and without me even asking, he volunteered his time to snap a few high quality pictures of us to capture the moment. Jason is such a great guy and his work speaks for itself. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND to anyone looking for a personable and professional photographer. -

Best Photographer I have worked with!! 10/10 Would Recommend
I worked with Jason to photograph my Proposal and I honestly cannot recommend them enough. They worked with me on every aspect of the proposal and even offered some great options for how to do it and to keep it a surprise for my Fiancée. During the proposal itself, they even took a video on my phone and were able to capture the moment itself amazingly well. The photos turned out great and for anyone looking for a photographer for any special moments in their life, I would go with Jason 1000%! -

Everything I could have asked for and more! Jason and his team helped me plan the perfect proposal for my girlfriend. As someone from Atlanta, I had no idea where it should happen in Chicago. Jason's team helped find the perfect location and even sent the best stick figure drawing blue print so I knew exactly where to stand. On top of that, the photos are amazing. My now fiancée and I couldn't be happier! -

Could not have found a better photographer for the best day of my life!
Jason did an incredible job capturing the best day of our lives, the proposal! Jason staying in contact with me and fiancée through the whole process and playing along to keep me from figuring it out the surprise. Jason doesn’t just take pictures, he creates beautiful art, he’s an artist. From his work you can tell how much he loves what he does and how talented and passionate he is about capturing the love between two people. He genuinely cares for each and every couple he works with and makes sure they feel comfortable in front of the camera. His pictures truly left us speechless and wanting every single picture printed and hung up. Jason made both days of the photoshoot fun and we definitely had a blast through the whole photoshoot. Jason will go above and beyond your expectations. He is not one that is in the business for money but rather to make new friends and capture a beautiful moment. I cannot express how much we love our pictures and how thankful we are to have Jason take our proposal and engagement pictures! -

Justin Sent on 06/09/2020Absolutely above and beyond expectation!
Jason is amazing! My wife and I were very fortunate to have come across his work early in our vendor search. While the quality of his (and his team's) work doubtlessly speaks for itself, his professionalism and courtesy is unmatched, certainly proven by his communication and knowledge during a very complicated time. He was the first vendor to reach out when we realized that we were going to have to shift things around due to the pandemic, and offered a ton of advice based on his experience with the industry. I cannot overstate how valuable that advice was. We are obviously very happy with the results of his photos, his flexibility and speed of delivery. We are really looking forward to finding more reasons to work with him and his team in the future, and I hope that you do as well. -

Gavin Sent on 11/29/2019Proposal Session
When I started researching “proposal and wedding photographers” in the Chicago area, I never imagined I’d find someone as talented as Jason. Although we currently live in Washington DC, I wanted to propose to my girlfriend in Chicago, where she is originally from. After searching for several hours online and emailing back and forth between several top photographers in the Chicago area, I picked Jason based on MANY other reviews and his excellent portfolio. From the first email and phone conversation, he was incredibly professional and responsive. I immediately told him the location where I wanted to propose based on other similar shoots I had seen (the honeycomb in Lincoln park). Jason took this information and drafted up a “game plan” complete with logistics maps and post proposal drink and dinner recommendations.
Leading up to the big day, Jason and I kept an eye on the weather as it was supposed to be a typical WINDY Chicago day. Just in case the weather didn’t cooperate, Jason had suggested an excellent nearby indoor location as well.
On the day of, Jason and his wonderful assistant Alex hid in the adjacent bushes while I popped the question. After proposing and after several minutes of enjoying the moment, Jason came up and introduced himself to my new fiancé. She was so surprised that a photographer was in the area and had no clue he had been taking photos so close to her! Great job on being so covert!
Following the actual proposal, we were only booked for 15-20 min of additional photos. Jason was so generous with his time and walked us around the Lincoln Park Zoo and Lake Michigan waterfront looking for the perfect shot. We spent over an hour getting TONS of great shots!
Following the photos, I asked Jason how long he thought it would take to edit them and have them accessible to share with family and friends. As the contract stated photos will be ready within 48 hours, I expected a day or two turn around. He had the photos to us within 6 hours fully edited!
I would absolutely recommend Jason again and hope to be able to use him for not only our wedding, but other photo shoots in the future. A++++++++. Thanks a ton!!

Jerry Sent on 07/28/2019All around incredible
As you've probably already seen, Jason and Alex capture stunning images, but their service goes so much beyond that. Jason truly works with you to create memories that last a lifetime. My wife and I planned our wedding from out of state, and Jason's receptiveness and questionnaires ensure we were just as prepared. On our wedding day we had so much fun shooting and he was extremely accommodating to any hiccups that arose. He has a great personality to work with and is beyond knowledgeable, anticipating your needs before you even know it. If you've come across Jason in your search, seriously look no further! -

Jason is an absolute superstar. He is professional, super helpful, and made my engagement photo experience a fantastic and smooth process. He knows a ton about the best spots in Chicago and has lots of experience getting the most out of shooting there especially given the time of day, weather conditions, etc. Oh, and the photos he delivered are incredible!! If you are reading this and looking for a photographer for your engagement, wedding, or anything else, look no further! -

Gina Sent on 05/06/2018My husband and I would hands down recommend Jason Kaczorowski Photorgraphy to anyone planning on getting married!! I first contacted Jason to do my engagement photos after searching for Chicago photographers. Jason’s portfolio gave me no doubt he was the man for the job! I was even more delighted after speaking with him. He was so easy going and beyond helpful and receptive to all my questions. During our first phone call I informed him I would be getting married in Florida and was beyond excited when he said he would be available to photorgraph my wedding as well. What an awesome surprise! The engagement photos were amazing and we had so much fun shooting with Jason and his assistant Alex. Jason was extremely organized and always available leading all the way up to the wedding. Upon arriving Jason went out of his way to make sure he checked out the entire area to ensure we had amazing backdrops for our pictures! He really went above and beyond, which was so helpful since there was so much other things for me to do since it was a destination wedding. On the day of the wedding he even helped me decide which earrings to wear! Lol! He captured the most beautiful photos and caught every single special moment. He came early and stayed late. He truly is devoted to ensuring you have every memory to look back at. That night when he went back to the hotel he even stayed up to make me a slideshow of moments from the wedding. It was so thoughtful and unexpected. He brought over his computer and my husband and my family and I were able to view the slideshow. It was so amazing and unexpected to be able to see those moments the very next day. If you are having a wedding in the Chicago or Florida area Jason is definitely the best for the job.

Rachel Sent on 03/13/2018What can I say! Truly deserving of 5 stars in every category. Jason and his team from the initial phone consultation to correspondence after the event have been nothing short of a full recommendation! Jason Kaczorowski was recommended to us for our wedding at Hotel Arista we had 02/17/18 but peruse through his work and it is more than enough persuasion. Jason immediately provided a sense of confidence in him and he did not disappoint throughout the whole process-during the planning, the wedding itself or after. In fact, Jason and his team far surpassed expectations. Nothing short of truly talented, they were able to capture some of the most emotional, rawest, hilarious and memorable moments of our big day. Having a photograph be able to take you back to that exact moment in time, particularly on a wedding day when everything is going so fast, is nothing short of invaluable. So grateful to have went with Jason and would highly recommend to anyone in need of stunning photos :)

Mandy Sent on 10/26/2017One of the best decisions I made when planning our wedding was hiring Jason as our photographer. Jason is part planner, counselor, motivator and most importantly, an all-around nice guy who is a delight to work with. He kept us calm when the details got too overwhelming and helped us orchestrate a series of photos that I cannot wait to share with my friends and family. I firmly believe it's the ease with which he shoots that led to the beautiful portraits, great group shots, fun candids and other moments that helped me re-live my special day all over again. If you want a fun photographer who everyone will love AND incredibly breath-taking and touching photos from your day, I cannot recommend Jason enough.

Aly Sent on 10/08/2017Jason and Brian were amazing at our 9/30/17 wedding in Galena! My now-husband and I are usually a little photo-shy and awkward, so we were really looking for someone who would make us feel comfortable and natural, and find poses that wouldn't look strangely posed and uncomfortable. Jason was 100% absolutely that, and more - he politely and happily wrangled us, two young flower girls, our large bridal party, and our blended families for photos; and everyone is so amazed at how gorgeous and joyful the pictures are! He gave us his sneak peek last night, and family and friends have been saying all day how amazing the photos are! Jason is worth every penny, and more. I'd recommend him to anyone!

Jean Sent on 10/06/2017Jason was, without a doubt, one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. Not only is he extremely professional, helpful, and organized, but he is also a lot of fun to work with! He felt like an old friend. Throughout the wedding planning process, my husband and I kept looking into where we wanted to get our wedding photos taken and what (if any) permits were needed to get the job done. Jason was so helpful with helping select locations. He has a wealth of experience and knowledge about great spots around the Chicago area. He took the time to drive around with us in Lincoln Park to select some great spots we could utilize. On the day of the wedding, Jason was a total pro. He coordinated our very large bridal party of 17 throughout all the various shots we needed. He rolled with us when we wanted to take a few photos with our dogs and I couldn't be happier with having gotten those shots! The icing on the cake of our lovely wedding day was the absolutely STUNNING photos he captured. There are so many small moments that happened on our wedding day that could have been lost in my memory years from now, but because Jason was on the ball all day, those little moments are beautifully captured forever (like the extraordinary shots of me with my grandmother). Those moments are priceless. With Jason our expectations were high and yet he still managed to exceed them. Lance and I love Jason!

Katie Sent on 11/08/2014I can't say enough great things about Jason! With my memory problem, photography was one of the areas we were most concerned about. I was nervous and didn't feel right about a lot of the photographers we were meeting - until we met Jason. He made me feel so at ease. We talked for hours about why he loves photography and how he got into it. By the time our wedding rolled around, we had talked to Jason several times and met his wife. I felt like he was part of the family and we all were enjoying the big day. His photography is outstanding and he makes you feel so comfortable when he's taking pictures. I remember seeing his photos and thinking they were amazing, but not thinking ours would turn out like that because we are silly people who make faces and act goofy all the time - but he somehow made us look great, too! You will not regret hiring Jason. He wasn't just a photographer on our day, he actually made the day so much more pleasant and fun.
