Our photojournalistic approach captures and preserves the drama, spontaneity and raw emotions from your wedding day for an intimate and realistic rendition of actual events. We unobtrusively integrate two cameras into the flow of your event and document it all exactly as it unfolds in both color and black and white. Afterwards we transform each candid shot into a magazine-quality image with expertly applied retouching and artistic effects. Award-winning designers arrange and compile the resulting photos, each spectacular and frame-worthy, into a couture, hand-bound album creating a cherished keepsake.

Jeanette Diaz Photography (Chicago and Suburbs)
I will give you a story in pictures of one of your most precious days in life that will make you smile! For years to come...
I love wedding Photography! As an artist I'm always looking
for those special moments. My approach is a mix of candid, photojournalistic / documentary
and some relaxed fun creative traditional formal portraits. I like to capture the true
essence of your day, the spirit of the person. All the little things you spent so much
time deciding on... and the big details too!
I think you will be happy with Jeanette. She is outgoing, creative and easy
to work with. I planned my whole wedding by myself and carefully interviewed everyone. I
got along well with Jeanette and knew from the start that I will enjoy working with her.
She did a fantastic job with the wedding photos, I received so many compliments. She has
talented eye and creative resources. I asked her to shoot my engagement session and she
designed my photo frame as reception favor. She also designed my thank you cards post
wedding. Please check our photos on her website by clicking here.
Click on wedding portfolio and you will see Gigi and David in the gallery We got
married last year on August 27. If you consider hiring her, you need to book her now
because she is very busy in the summer. We got the package full coverage on wedding
day, we have so many happy memories from this day, when I look at the photos, Jeanette
really captured the essence of the wedding, she did a mix of candid and formal shots.
Not only her services are affordable, but you won't compromise quality with her. We are
trying to have a baby this year and I will be sure to contact her again to take baby
photos. I can't say enough good things about Jeanette. Again if you like her creative
style and her cheerful personality, she will be a good pick. I wish you all the best in
your wedding planning and let me know how it goes with Jeanette.

"Juli captured shots and moments that we were unaware of. It's magical to relive the day through our photos. The posed shots were painless and great to have, but the candids really tell the true story of the day."
- David and Julia Bishop - Barrington, IL
"We were so excited to get the DVD because all of our quests and family were telling us about the awesome shots Juli was getting. She captured every detail and emotion of the day. When I look at our album I feel as though I'm reliving the day in slow motion. The actual day was anything but that! I'm glad I chose Juli because, yes I have the great traditional portraits but what I treasure most are the candids,not only of my hubby & I, but of all my friends and family"

that you did for us. You went far above and beyond being a hired photographer. You looked at our wedding day as if it was the most important
day of your life too and it shows in the pictures. YOU ARE AMAZING. I say
