10/5 stars: AMAZING is how to describe Abby (and Derek!)! From the communication, reasonable pricing, creativity, and ease felt during all sessions with Abby, I could not be more happy of how our engagement and sneak peak wedding photos turned out! Never in my life did I think taking pictures could be more fun, and Abby proved me so wrong! We laughed, had “girl chats”, and I sometimes forgot Abby even had the camera in her hand! I was so comfortable every time I was working with Abby! Not only is Abby unbelievable with how comfortable she makes her customers feel, she is so quick and efficient! She got me about 40 sneak peak photos of our wedding day within a few hours of when the wedding wrapped up! This was an amazing surprise!!!! I cannot wait to see the rest of our wedding photos, and I look forward to working with Abby again in the future! Thank you so much, Abby and Derek!

I truly don’t have words for how amazing Abby is! Her talent is unmatched, and having Abby there for our engagement and wedding honestly felt like we were with hanging out with a friend- she makes the environment so relaxed and fun. I would recommend Abby to everyone!

Courtney M- 2023

Abby and her team were amazing. They were great at helping people who never do photo shoots, posing. They were also very go it’s the flow while habit structure. They helped the day go so smooth, helped answer all questions, got our photo and videos back quickly, gave LOTS of photos to choose from, and were so kind! 12/10 recommend

Sam P- 2023

Abby was incredible from start to finish! She was quick and professional in her responses from my initial inquiry. The day of our elopement, she arrived early and gave us several suggestions on nearby locations. Abby made us feel so comfortable and natural in front of the camera. We didn’t have to think about anything - she told us exactly what to do! She provided us a sneak peek within a couple of hours of our session and communicated her progress on our gallery with us in the following weeks. I cannot recommend Abby enough!! Her work is stunning and we will absolutely be working with her again for future photos.

Abby is amazing! She was quick & thorough on our wedding day & made sure we had all the pictures we wanted! She took all the stress out of the day with her amazing personality! We also used her videography services & had the pleasure of working with Derek as well who was also incredible! Our engagement photos & wedding sneak peek are better than I could ever have imagined! Thank you so much Abby!!

Courtney L- 2023

Abby was absolutely PHENOMENAL! She captured our engagement pictures, did boudoir photos, and our wedding pictures and I will forever recommend her. The amount of time and effort she put into making our day perfect is unmatched. Every shoot she sent back sneak peeks before the end of the day and the rest of the album in a very timely manor. There are not enough words to describe how amazing her work is.

Nicole G-2023

Above and Beyond! Abby was very thorough in her photographs of our wedding. She coordinated photos with the other vendors (DJ, caterer, etc.) to ensure we got the best photos and to ensure our day went smoothly. She was very easy to work with and helped me with getting ready and other little details that she did not have to help with. All of our photos turned out great!

Christina K-2023

Best experience I could have had! Abby and her husband are absolutely amazing. They made us so comfortable and we can’t stop looking at our beautiful photos! I would recommend Abby to anyone! She is truly the best wedding photographer.

Amber G- 2022

I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer! She responded quickly to my questions and took some photos I had wanted specifically! Easy to get along with and chatted with my guests. I got a sneak peak of my wedding photos night of and I was speechless. Highly recommend!

Alexis M-2022

Abby is absolutely amazing. I didn’t have a wedding coordinator and Abby was able to keep us and our guests on schedule by directing and keeping us updated of the time and the timeline I shared with her prior to our wedding. Not only does her work speak for itself but she’s the sweetest and most down to earth person. She’s able to keep things professional but also make them personable. I will 100% be hiring Abby again for future photography sessions!

Elise H-2022

Abby photographed both our engagement photos and wedding photos, and we truly couldn’t be happier! Abby is so patient and kind and has a brilliant way of capturing all of the big (and little) details and moments. She produces photographs you didn’t even know you needed. In fact, most of my favorite shots from our wedding night were her ideas and I will cherish them forever! Abby is the best in the business!!

Ness H-2022

If you want a truly fantastic photographer to capture your wedding day; Abby is your girl!! Not only is she a spectacular photographer with an artistic eye and mad posing skills, but she also jumps in to fix last minute wedding day fiascos too! My husband and I were so thankful she was a part of our day, and we are thrilled that her passionate art captured our precious moments forever. Thank you so much, Abby!!

Kortney G - 2022


Abby was so fun to work with. She did our engagement photos and our wedding and she always made us feel comfortable even though we don’t like taking photos. Will definitely be booking her for future photography needs!

Jillian H - 2021

Abby is by far the best photographer in central IL, coming from another photographer. I had her do my engagement session as well as my wedding and I will not use another photographer besides her. She is so talented and is someone I look up to for inspiration as being a photographer myself!

Madeline B- 2021

Abby came in when I was about two months from my wedding and had just lost my original photographer. She came in last minute and was so supportive and helpful! She is so talented and an amazing person in general. I not only have incredible pictures to help these memories last a lifetime but I’ve gained a friend. I absolutely recommend Abby to anyone in need of a wedding photographer and always will!

Stacie A - 2021

Abby is absolutely fantastic! She shot our engagement photos and wedding photos and my husband and I couldn’t be happier! Not only were all of our pictures gorgeous, but Abby herself is super fun and great to work with! She always has lots of great ideas, tons of energy and we just love her! Abby is our photographer for life!

There is no one else I would trust with my Wedding photos!!! Abby did my engagement photos and it was the easiest most laid back session I have ever done. She told us exactly how to stand where to look and where to put our hands. Being a plus size babe like myself I’m always worried about getting the right angle to make me look thinner and I swear she got the perfect angles! I am so in love with the engagement photos and can’t wait for the wedding! Abby is the BEST I highly recommend her for all of ur photography needs! You definitely won’t be disappointed! She is also super patient. We really wanted our puppy included in some of our shots and as we know puppy’s are all over the place but somehow she managed to get the perfect pictures!

Carissa J- 2021

Abby was incredible! First & foremost she did a boudoir shoot I got done as a wedding gift for my husband. Having never met her prior, I can tell you she made me feel so comfortable and made the whole experience so fun! As our wedding photographer she went above and beyond to make sure we got all of the moments captured we wanted and more! She even stood out in the rain with us to get the best photos! Not only does she have a kick ass personality, she did an INCREDIBLE job! Plus we love love her editing skills😍 If you are looking for the perfect wedding photographer look no further! Thank you Abby for being a part of our special day 🤍

Allegra L- 2021

Abby was amazing to work with! Our wedding came together super fast and we were so lucky to be able to get Abby for the day. We had an intimate, 25 person wedding and we didn't do a ton of the traditional pics- bridal party, first dance, bouquet toss, etc. I was worried there wasn't a real need for a photographer. But even with so little to work with on our end Abby pulled off some amazing shots. Neither one of us are particularly experienced in front of a camera but Abby directed us and wrangled our families so effortlessly. I was so grateful to feel like it wasn't something I had to manage on the day- it was all taken care of. They were also fun and fit in so easily while hanging out, getting ready, chilling at the reception. Not to mention super communicative beforehand. The pictures came out great and I couldn't be happier with our choice!

Meadow S- 2021


There just aren’t enough words to possibly describe how amazing each and every photo that Abby snaps. She has a magical way of finding the perfect angle, lighting and of course expressions. she is so much fun to work with and the results are amazing.

Jenye M - 2021


Absolutely love Abby and her skills! Not only are her photos fantastic, but she is so personable and professional. She’s one of our favorite photographers to work with and I recommend her to everyone!

Elyssa N - 2021

Abby was AMAZING to work with! She really captured the best moments of the day. The photos we received were edited beautifully and we got them back in a timely manner. I HIGHLY recommend booking her for all your photography needs. I know we will be using her in the future. THANK YOU so much Abby! 

Ashley M - 2021

Abby was an awesome photographer. She was there at the wedding from the time we started getting ready to the time we didn't need her at the reception. She was quick to get our pictures back to us and even gave us some sneak peeks after the wedding. She was very personable and super friendly to work with. Loved that her husband came along for the groom and his pictures. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer.

Marlene K - 2021

We used Abby for our engagement and wedding photos and we couldn’t be happier! All of her photos captured us as a couple and the atmosphere of our wedding reception perfectly! She went above and beyond in making sure we had so many photos to remind us of our happiest day. We can’t wait to share them with the rest of our friends of family.

Alexas M - 2021

I was a bridesmaid in a wedding that Abby & her husband photographed! Abby was calm and collective but also kept us on our tight schedule while taking every single photo the brides wanted. She was so sweet with the kiddos as well. I highly recommend Abby!

Abby was amazing to work with. She helped me decide the location of the ceremony before the wedding and was very responsive to all of my questions. The photos she took of our wedding are absolutely beautiful and will be treasured forever. I would highly recommend Abby!

Abby is the best and went above and beyond for us!

Monty- 2021

I watched Abby work. She is amazing, patient, worked outside in freezing rain, never once complained. She was determined to get the right moment in Carissa’s wedding pics. Having done wedding photography myself, I have a lot of respect for Abby’s professionalism and creativity. Well done!! (Father of the Bride)
