Todd James Photography

I couldn’t tell you how I found Todd but I was drawn by his ability to capture people in a positive, flattering manner that really shows the love between the couple. Everyone who has seen our engagement photos has complimented them on how well they captured our relationship. Here is a list of the things we love about working with Todd!
1. His ability to set you at ease. My fiancée is notoriously bad at smiling in a relaxed (normal) way for pictures. Todd made our engagement session fun and very low stress, which led to awesome pictures for us!
2. His photos — seriously, check out his website & blog. They are amazing.
3. He is incredibly generous with his time. He didn’t rush us during our engagement photos, which I really appreciated. Also, see #4.
4. He goes above & beyond. We’re getting married in December and daylight is practically non-​existent. We walked through a timeline for my wedding day over the phone to get some time outdoors — absolutely not necessary but incredibly helpful.
Honestly, I cannot say enough good things about Todd & his work. Pick him for your wedding photographer — you will not be disappointed!

I originally discovered Todd just clicking through various wedding vendors. What I liked most about his work is his ability to capture tender moments between couples. I am happy he was able to do that for my husband and I — our engagement session and our wedding day look absolutely magical. When my husband and I met with Todd we knew right away he was our photographer — he was personable and his albums are absolutely STUNNING. I cannot wait to receive ours! As a graphic designer, I’m picky about these things and saw some very unimpressive albums by some highly rated Chicago Photographers. The layouts he puts together really tell a story and the Italian made album can’t be beat. Todd is an amazing value for his talents.
It was apparent after our wedding day that Todd’s talents extend beyond the lens. He worked well with all of our different vendors and definitely helped me keep calm when things seemed tense (oh family!). Hiring Todd for our wedding was the best investment! I have the most beautiful photos of the most important day of my life — absolutely priceless.
