I cannot say enough wonderful things about the experience we had with everyone from TWA. We were originally supposed to have our wedding in April 2020 but had to postpone because of COVID to June 2021 and TWA was super helpful in getting things figured out very quickly for us-the photographers from our original date were not available for our new date but Amanda Daly helped us in getting set with new photographers. The whole process was handled very professionally and was exceptionally smooth which was super helpful after all the stress of postponing the wedding in the first place. We ended up having the pleasure to work with Art Antonik as our primary photographer and Greg Polechonski as our secondary photographer and I am not sure that we could have had a better set of people for our wedding! Both men were extremely professional and super responsive during the planning process and were so much fun to work with on our wedding day. I received SO many compliments throughout the day on how amazing our photographers were. They made everyone feel so comfortable during the photo process and were great with the younger kids we had in our bridal party. I cannot recommend this company, and specifically Art and Greg, enough to anyone looking to book a photographer for their wedding/special event. The photos turned out amazing!

Our wedding photographer, Tim, was great. He arrived on time and helped us keep calm throughout the day. We loved all of our pictures and were very excited to receive our proofs earlier than expected. We would recommend!

Our wedding day was beautiful. Timothy Whaley and his associates are very professional and they made a very beautiful photographic story that we can share with friends and family. Everyone from support staff to our photographer were very professional and knowledgeable.

Our wedding experience with TWA was exceptional! We were always encourage to ask questions and receieved quick response times. The photographer we were assigned (Zandro) was AMAZING! He gave so much direction and made the experience fun!! We received so many compliments the day of, and they have continued as friends and family review our photos on TWAs user friendly website. I would not change a thing about our experience and am thrilled with the final result!

Jerry our photographer was amazing. Great sense of humor and made the day even more fun. Nick took amazing candid shots that I would hav otherwise missed on Our Big day. 10/10 would recommend again

We recently used TWA for our wedding. Our photographer Sal was absolutely amazing!!! Throughout the day he made sure all our requests for photos were met and the quality of the photos turned out fantastic! Great shots, formal and creative/fun, both! The entire process was easy with TWA. The reveal meeting after the wedding was a very pleasant experience to share with our parents too! The company is very professional and easy to work with, I would recommend TWA to my best of friends and family!

We loved working with TWA for our wedding. They made it very easy to figure out, and made payments easy as well. Our photographer was Heidi, and she did a phenomenal job. The pictures turned out amazing and we couldn't be happier with them. I would recommend them to anyone.

Loved working with everyone at Timothy Whaley! We booked when we first met with them (the only photographers we even met with); they gave us so many offers for booking with them, we couldn't refuse! They were so nice and helpful, at our in person meetings, over the phone, over email, and the day of! We booked them for our engagement session and for the wedding. Our engagement session was tricky to book on our side because my husband had a crazy work schedule. The day of our scheduled session the photographer we were booked with called with a family emergency and couldn't make our shoot (understandable). I called TWA and they booked us with a new photographer within an hour! We got beautiful engagement photos and I couldn't be happier with their quick and accommodating service! For our wedding, we were paired with Douglas and he was great! Like everyone else we've encountered, he was professional and helpful. We had a few phone conversations and on the final one before the wedding we went through a Pinterest board and he took note of the kinds of photos that I wanted and poses I liked to get photos I would love - and I love them all! Throughout the whole process, Amanda has been in contact with me, making sure everything was and is working out for us. I really appreciated the attentiveness, professionalism, and product that TWA gave us. Planning to use them for family photos in the future and recommending them to my friends as they get engaged!

TWA was such a wonderful company to work with. Their staff is very professional and easy going. They have lots of options as far as packages go and I was able to pick one that fit perfectly for our day. I used them for both our engagement photos and our wedding and I couldn't be happier with the result. I keep going through our giant book of proofs wondering how the heck I'm gonna narrow them down for our album. They are all just so beautiful! Thank you so much TWA for doing a wonderful job! I would and have been reccomending you guys to everyone!

Finding a great photographer was a top priority for us (as I’m sure it is to all couples). My husband and I met with several photographers and photography groups that were just awful before meeting with and deciding on TWA to photograph our wedding. We felt that they really took the time to sit down with us and listen to what we were looking for in a photographer. Their packages and pricing are very straightforward, we also felt that they had a lot more to offer than the others that we met with.
We have found their staff to be extremely friendly and helpful throughout every step of the way (we are in the process of selecting photos for our album now). Our lead photographer, Heather, perfectly captured every moment of our day and our secondary photographer, Douglas, did an amazing job catching all the little details. We really couldn’t be happier. We are so happy with ALL of our pictures we are having a difficult time making the selections for our album!

TWA was a joy to work with from the first consult to the end of our wedding day. Larry was absolutely phenomenal! I am so happy we used them to photograph our big day. We were able to meet with our photographer a couple months before our big day to iron out all the details. Larry was extremely easy to work with and stayed with us till the last song played on the dance floor. I would definitely recommend using TWA!

I love TWA we had a summer wedding and I could not be happier with our pictures. They turned out so beautiful! Our photographers and videographer were so fun and functional to work with. The day was captured perfectly with them.

Great experience with this company! Our wedding photos turned out beautifully and really captured our day. Our photographers & videographer were fun to work with and made the day very easy.

Our entire experience with this studio was phenomenal. I initially met with Nick for the consultation. He was willing to accommodate our needs. Our photographer was Joel and he was absolutely fantastic to work with. He was friendly, professional and well-prepared. He made the whole experience of being photographed a comfortable one. We love all the photos he took for us. We also had a photojournalistic photographer, Jean. She got many great shots as well. The process of creating our album was simple and fun with the help of the competent and friendly staff (We worked with Amy and Amanda). We would highly recommend this studio to any couple in the Chicagoland area!

Timothy Whaley was absolutely wonderful to work with! Everyone we worked with so so kind and accommodating. Our storyteller photographer was Heather and Julian was our photojournalist. They were both on time, took direction well and were very solicitous of our needs. The photos turned out so beautiful, and we would definitely choose TWA again!

Since our first meet & greet we were certain that we would choose them as our photographers. Eddie was great and very detailed with his explanation of the company and work. We booked that same day and are happy we did. We are picking our pictures for our album and even before the edits they are gorgeous! My husband and I highly recommend them. Jerry and Diana are photographers...Jerry is so fun but yet very professional. Helped our day go smoothly as did Eddie and Diana.

Timothy Whaley was absolutely amazing. They are easy and flexible to work with and offer tons of perks. Our photographer, Heidi, was also great to work with! She did a wonderful job. I would recommend them to anyone!

Ever since we met with Timothy Whaley & Associates we have had so many GREAT experiences and they just continue! We booked with the studio at the first sit down meeting and never looked back. They make you feel very comfortable and provide you with the easiest process to make everything run smoothly. Everyone is easy to get in touch with and always respond in a timely fashion. As the bride, the wedding day was not nearly as stressful as it could have been. The photographer was doing her job (amazingly I might add). She arrived early, came with many ideas and was able to capture all the shots we desired. She was so easy to get ahold of and was willing to do just about anything! My husband and I are both still in contact with the company. We are picking out our bridal album, purchasing any prints and canvas, and providing our family and friends the option to purchase as well! We absolutely loved our experience and would recommend them!

TWA matched us with an incredible photographer, Abel! He was a great fit for us. Appreciated meeting in advance to be on the same page for what we were looking for and Abel delivered! Fantastic photos, great personality, fun to work with!

We had a wonderful experience with TWA photography! We were able to meet with our photographer, Heidi a few months before our wedding and she was amazing! Our guests thought she was great and she made sure to take all the specific pictures we wanted + many more!
