Amazing/Wonderful/blessed I found her

When I met Bindu I knew instantly I wanted her as my photographer for my wedding on 8/22/20. My engagement photos amazing! Wedding photos amazing! Advice she gave me, on point! She was always 10 steps ahead with everything! She knows her stuff! All we had to do was show up and she took it from there. Advice to anyone looking for a photographer, It gets no better than Bindu. I did the research. Bindu exceeded my expectations, besides her incredible photography skills, she is sweet, easy to talk to, I always got a response immediately, she's creative, extremely prompt, always on time, she will always have a plan, I can keep going and going. Overall, I am blessed to have found her. Every key moment as well as every moment was captured of my wedding and I have gotten so many compliments on my photos. From one bride to another photography is so important and its not something you want to regret or chance it. With that said, everthing about Bindu's service was flawless. I can't imagine having anyone but Bindu as my wedding photographer because everything went so smooth and she showed me through her work ethic that my wedding was just as important to her as it was to me. I felt like I was her number 1 priority from the time I booked her until the end of my wedding which was about a 10 month duration. Besides marrying my husband, working with Bindu was the 2nd best decision I made.
Sincerely,
A Satisfied, grateful Bride

Wonderful Experience

Bindu was such a pleasure to work with. Wedding planning can be extremely stressful, but she made everything run so smoothly. Also, it was a HUGE bonus that she responded so quickly to my emails. Thank you for your beautiful photos!

The perfect photographer to capture our day

Bindu could not have been a more calming presence as she captured our wedding. No matter how much you prep, it becomes stressful and having a calm, focused photographer was more important than I ever realized. She was so organized and captured every moment I could have asked for and accommodated every last minute request I thought of. Plus, all our pictures were ready with in 5 days of the wedding - something unheard of. Could not recommend Bindu more for anyone getting married in Chicago, we will cherish her photographs for a lifetime!

Excellent service

I found Bindu on wedding wire and wasn't sure what to expect, but she was great! She was very attentive to our desired style, and she was creative with backgrounds at our venue. She was flexible with our changing needs COVID19 hit. She was also friendly & encouraging, and I was glad to have her as a part of our special day.
Also - she got the photos back to me in less than a week! This is incredibly fast! (And somehow managed to remove all my acne & blemishes.) I’ve heard of other vendors taking months to get photos back to bride & groom.

Wonderful to work with - photos were better than could have imaged

Bindu did the photography for our Chicago wedding in June 2019. She was incredibly professional and very fun to work with. We met with her once before the wedding to talk about what we wanted. I sent her a proposed schedule and a number of examples of pictures that I liked. She had some great suggestions on how to accommodate all the pictures we wanted. The day of she remembered every example picture I sent her and had more creative ideas of her own. We ended up with some amazing shots featuring the amazing Chicago architecture by Michigan Avenue and the river. It was also clear that Bindu had done her research on our venue because we got great shots of the space, ceremony, and reception. Bindu was also wonderful to work with in creating our wedding album. She was very accommodating and worked with us through a number of revisions. She went about and beyond by giving us additional spreads and a custom box for our album that really made it special. I highly recommend Bindu as a wedding photographer. The results were even better than we imaged they would be.

Excellent wedding photographer!

Bindu is an incredible photographer. She is very patient and flexible. She helped figure out a good wedding timeline. She is responsive during the wedding process, which helped make wedding planning easier. Bindu also coordinated with my videographer(he reach out to her first), and together, they were able to get amazing photos and videos. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. She is excellent!

Bindu is absolutely wonderful!

Bindu is extremely professional, patient, and understanding. As we were going through the wedding planning process, she was so patient as I had to revise her schedule multiple times. She is also extremely responsive and always willing to chat to go over questions or scheduling. It was a pleasure to work with her, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding photographer.

Above and Beyond

Bindu went above and beyond in working as our photographer for our engagement photos, wedding photos, and creating our wedding album. It's a very crazy thing to trust vendors with large amounts of money and hoping for the best but she was fantastic all the way through.

Bindu is extremely initially organized, upfront with everything, and cool as a cucumber. Aside from her artistic talent, her calm demeanor is what I most appreciated as the day was already stressful enough. She was extremely flexible in working with my husband and I. Was mindful of time but didn't rush anything, and was a pro working with our huge family. Our guests also noted her calm demeanor and how she blended in the party and got so many great candid photos.

I've also heard that many photographers take weeks or months to get customer's photos returned but she edited and got photos back to us in about a week.

There are lots of photographers in the Chicagoland area who not only won't give you the great quality photos you expect for your big day or an easy going attitude, but will also charge you an arm and a leg for their services. I found Bindu's price of services to be extremely fair and her customer service is top notch.

I cannot sing her praises enough. I would definitely recommend her to my family and friends and would reach out to her for any potential major events in the future.

Beautiful Photos!

Bindu was exceptional to work with. During our initial meeting, she was prepared, professional and personable. She answered all of our questions and guided us through all of our options with clear pricing and details. On the day of the event, she was very organized, quick, and knew the shots she was looking for. She directed people with ease. We asked her to stay longer than expected and she happily obliged. Our photos were sent over extremely quickly- a few days. We were blown away by the quality. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. She captured moments so naturally. We didn’t even realize she was there most of the day but her pictures told a great story. Bindu went out of her way to send us multiple links of proofs, rushed our photo album, and an extra drive. Pros: Communication Skill/Vision Editing Planning Value Friendly Compassionate Timely Decisive

Wonderful experience!

My fiance and I decided to get our engagement photos taken while on vacation in Chicago and we found Bindu. We set up a date (and a back up date - just in case!) well in advance and by the time came, we were both super nervous since we are not people that get professional photographs taken - ever! Bindu was sweet and made us both extremely comfortable. She was able to give us different location, pose, and outfit suggestions. Bindu even had our photos put into an online gallery within the week. We couldn't have chosen a better photographer for our engagement photos. Thank you, Bindu!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
