Adam Novak Photography

Adam is one of the greatest photographers that I have ever met! He captured all the beautiful and important moments on our engagement session and wedding day! Also, he gave us the edited photos within only several weeks with high quality which beyonds our expectation. He really did an excellent job!

Adam captured our wedding last year in October. We are absolutely in love with our pictures!
I hired Adam even before we met him in person… that’s how much I love his work. I live in Vegas but got married in Chicago, so I had to plan a wedding from across the country. We talked on the phone and through email several times before meeting at a local coffee shop one of the times I was in town. Let me just say that he made us feel so at ease about everything! He helped brainstorm places we can take pictures which came in handy come wedding day.
Come wedding day, he was able to work with our crazy, loud and huge wedding party! Everyone loved him! So on my wedding day, the Chicago weather decided to disappoint me and it literally rained. ALL. DAY. I didn’t have a plan B, as I wanted to take pictures by the skyline and North Ave. Beach and prayed it would not rain. Adam came to the rescue and suggested we go to the Civic Opera House to take pictures instead. Those pictures turned out so well, despite the rain (and my hair and all the bridesmaids’ hairs flattened because of the humid… ugh!).
I highly recommend Adam if you’re looking for a photographer. But book him quick, he’s a busy guy!

It was great to work with Adam for our wedding last summer. He put both me and my husband at ease right away in our first meeting and we knew it would be fun to work with him. Adam came up with some great places to take shots during our reception and we had a wonderful time. His pictures showed a great combination of posed and candid shots and really captured the moment. The website he provided initially with the photos was very reasonably priced for prints plus we received a DVD with all the pictures that we can do what we want with now and in the future. I would definitely hire him again in the future for other photography work.

Words cannot express what an outstanding photographer and all around great professional Adam Novak is! We were able to snag Adam for our August 2013 wedding at the last minute and the pictures he took exceeded our expectations. We then hired him to do my husband’s concert a month after our wedding and I didn’t think he could out do himself after the wedding! He completely hit it out of the ball park. So much so that my husband and I will be using him for all of our professional gigs and other people we know as well.
I highly recommend Adam for any occasion. You never truly realize he is in the room shooting candids until you get the proofs back. Outstanding!

My husband and I were so lucky to snag Adam for our wedding last month! We hired him after he photographed my sister’s wedding in September 2011 and did an incredible job… and yet, he still exceeded our expectations for our own special day.
During the wedding planning process, I loved looking through Adam’s website. All of his portfolio pictures are simply stunning. Compared to other photography sites, you can tell that the quality is flawless, the lighting in every photo is perfect, and yet, everything looks incredibly natural. He has an eye for what location, pose, etc. works best and he does it well!
The extra «something» with Adam, that you won’t get with other vendors, is his personality. He makes everyone feel comfortable from the moment he arrives, which is SO important on your wedding day. Adam was able to get even our grumpy Grandpa smiling for the family photos and the mellowest of groomsmen laughing throughout the bridal party pictures. He works hard to make you, your family and friends look good, have fun and love finished product. He is able to capture personalities beautifully and with ease, which makes the day a blast and the final photos amazing, gorgeous memories of one of the best days of your life. My husband and I strongly recommend Adam… You will not be disappointed!

Adam is a terrific wedding photographer. Period.
Along with his talent, Adam is wonderful to be around. He has great positive energy, with obvious dedication and passion for his work. Adam will go above and beyond to do the best that he can. Even though our outside wedding got rained out, Adam found creative ways to get great shots. I’m completely satisfied with Adam’s work and I would definitely recommend him. He’s professional, fun, and easy going. A great pick.

Adam Novak is a god. Seriously. We hired him to photograph our wedding after he did my brother’s wedding in 2008 (because the photos were stunning). He did not disappoint. We got married on ¹²⁄₁₈ and had the photos within the month. Adam does not make you order your photos only through him– he gives you a disk and you can do whatever you like with your photos, unlike a lot of other photographers.
Other than the beautiful photos and candid moments Adam captures, he is a really fun, warm and easy-​going person. He knows how to put people at ease– which is important when you are part of a wedding and are having your picture taken all day long. He is extrememly creative and has a million great ideas for where to go to get the best picture at different times of the day and at different locations. I got married in the city, but my brother was married in Oregon, IL and Adam was able to improvise some really great shots there too.
Perhaps most importantly, at least to a bride, Adam knows how to make you look your best– whether it’s the lighting he chooses or the angles he shoots from or the lens… I don’t know how he does it but you will never look more beautiful than you do when he takes your photograph. In the end, isn’t that what every bride wants out of her wedding photos?
