Choosing the right wedding photographer is one of the most important decisions you’ll make while planning your wedding. Your photos are the lasting memory of one of the biggest days of your life, the laughter, the quiet moments, the details you spent months planning. Here’s how to choose the best photographer for you, and why Kaitlyn Johnston Photography might be the perfect fit for couples in Chicago and beyond.

Why choose one photographer when two can double the moments captured, reduce stress, and give you richer storytelling? Having two photographers at your wedding is one of the smartest investments you can make. Here’s why.

Kristina and Henry chose the most romantic way to celebrate Valentine’s Day, by getting married.

2025 was filled with 36 full wedding days, 15 elopements, 54 portrait sessions, 10 proposals, 18 events, countless hours editing, chatting with all of you on the phone/over email, mood boarding, & location scouting. It’s been a busy one to say the least and I’m so grateful for all of the memories we got to create together.

This wedding was 16 years in the making, and I'm honored to have celebrated and documented the day with them. I could go on for days about how incredible these two are as individuals, how perfect they are together, and how absolutely magical their wedding day was, but let's be honest, you guys just want to see the photos anyway.
