Testimonials

Just a few kind words from clients past….

Chicago wedding photographer Oriana Photography

Oriana is simply amazing! We are so glad we found her and very lucky to have had her photograph our wedding day.  Our whole wedding party instantly fell in love with her enthusiasm and playful energy.  She did an incredible job of capturing all the moments of our day, and even managed to make a seriously sweaty bride look radiant.

The photos turned out better than we ever imagined and looking through them is like reliving the whole day again, from getting ready to dancing with our best friends.  And she did all of this while being just the nicest, sweetest person to be around.  Thank you for everything Oriana!” –  Adrian Gregory & Brittany Bowman

I really can’t say enough about how great our engagement portraits turned out. AND about how much fun it was to do the shoot itself. We were kind of anxious about being the center of attention, but Oriana made it an incredibly fun and relaxing afternoon. After we posted the photos on Facebook to much acclaim, friends who saw us IN PERSON took the time to say how much they reflected our personalities and individual style in a beautiful way. She really got us.” – Lindsay & Pat McCarthy

Oriana, I am so happy that you were there to capture all of those special, fun, sacred moments. You were so professional, discreet, and creative. Thank you for sharing your talents with us! -Laurie  Nichols & Doug Bratt

Oriana put everyone at ease.  She was very fun and the kids even forgot that she was even taking photos at some points. I cherish these photos!  – Jackie Deluca

Oriana was absolutely amazing to work with, and we are so thrilled with the pictures! From start to finish, Oriana was fantastic. She made sure to understand the kinds of things we liked and what we wanted, and she gave perfect suggestions for where we could go to make these things happen (on a very tight schedule!).

Oriana was professional and cheerful throughout our whole day. She was super organized and made sure people knew what to do for group shots and was fun without being bossy. Everyone immediately felt comfortable around Oriana, which made pictures much more fun and authentic. Looking through our pictures is such a wonderful way to relive the joy and love we felt on our wedding day, and we feel so lucky to have everything captured so beautifully!” – Sonia & Matt Wilson

Oriana is a joy to be around and easily brings out the best in people. She quickly connected with our family – she’d made sure she knew the kids’ names and ages prior to meeting them – and they were happy to do as she requested.  I wish every photographer I worked with could be as joyful, helpful, thorough and thoughtful as Oriana. – Kathy Pine

We can’t even begin to express our gratitude and admiration for Oriana’s artistic photography of our wedding.  With her enthusiasm and constant smile on her face, she made everybody feel comfortable and at ease every time she took a picture.   She fit right in and was able to capture so many candid moments.  The moments she captured made me CRY, laugh and jump with excitement as I relived those special moments through her photographs.  Her attention to detail and spunky personality made me do things for the pictures that I never thought of doing.  And it paid off!  I am so happy with our photographs. Oriana creates art by capturing not just a moment in time, but by showing the essence and emotion of it as well. – Geovanna & Rocky Guerra

Oriana is incredible to work with. She made our photo shoot so fun that my son and I never felt like we were posing for the camera!  We have the photos up in our home and we constantly get compliments on them.  They capture both of our personalities and our relationship beautifully.”   – Brighid O’Shaughnessy

We felt completely at ease with you behind the camera- this was so very important for us for our wedding. Thank you for the wonderful experience.  – Kelly & Trevor

 I am so impressed with Oriana’s talent and glorious personality!  She is so personable, friendly, funny and compassionate that she made our special day even more fun than we thought it could be.  She found poses that were natural and yet so special…and at the beach she was a master. Her command of light and shadow allows even me (a woman in her fifties) to look really pretty!

Our pictures are brilliant because of her and I am grateful to have met her and been her subject. I can say without reservation, “Hire this talented and lovely woman to take your pictures. You will be happy!” We were lucky enough to find her and have her as our photographer.  Thank you, Oriana!      – Carolyn Mora

Oriana is a talented artist, a true professional, and a joy to work with. She has shot most of our weddings which are some of the most elegant beach destination weddings in Latin America. Exceeding clients expectations is a mission that Oriana shares with us. We highly recommend Oriana!” – Steve Jacobus & Erika Brandt, owner wedding venue
