We are Marc & Mindy-a husband and wife wedding photography duo currently residing in the Chicago area. The purpose of our work is to do far more than solely create stunning photographs. We hope to impact lives and marriages by documenting your most authentic and joyful moments. We believe that the world should not be viewed from any single vantage point.
For the couple who wants heart-tugging imagery, we're here for you. For the romantic couple that wants images that remind them again and again why they chose each other, we're here for you as well. Based in the suburbs of Chicago, we are a husband and wife photography team specializing in fine art wedding photography.
When you look through your photos, we hope you remember how it felt to marry your best friend and feel again all the excitement of celebrating with your closest friends and family.

We love it all. The beauty. The affection. The tradition. The details. Each wedding we photograph is so uniquely different and profound on a level all its own. When it comes to capturing your day, we prefer to leave the storytelling to you and your guests. We believe that our job is not to bark orders and pose you and your family in certain ways, but to commemorate the real moments and narratives that are weaved throughout the day.

Marc and Mindy were absolutely wonderful! My husband and I planned our wedding all within 3 short months and they managed to work with us to the best of their ability.
They were a very easy going, happy couple and made our day so much more special with their help. They even had a schedule for the day so that we stayed on track. The photos turned out amazing and we would highly recommend them to you.

Marc and Mindy were absolutely the best team to work with. So easy going. The communication they had throughout the year long wait from our engagement to wedding was so helpful. Being the busy farmers that we are having that extra reminder was so helpful. Our engagement session was a blast to take these two love birds to our dairy farm and give them a tour of the cows and farm land. They got right in there and weren’t afraid to take on a new environment. Lol our wedding day was such a picture perfect day. Mindy’s eye to catch the perfect natural lighting was definitely seen in the pictures

Hiring Marc & Mindy was the best decision I made when planning my wedding! To start with they are incredibly professional and nice! They took the time to get to know us and know what kind of pictures do we want exactly. I was a bit late on the wedding day and Mindy made me much calmer while managing to get all the pictures I wanted with the time we had left! My husband also had a ton of great pictures getting ready with Marc's help. They truly helped make the day run as smoothly as possible plus we had so much fun with them on the photoshoot. All the pictures were perfect it was almost

I had the pleasure of getting to meet Mindy and Marc when we hired them to be our wedding photographer. Looking around for a wedding photographer can be an extremely stressful ordeal. When I saw Mindy and Marc’s portfolio I knew instantly they were who we needed to capture our wedding day. Their style is timeless and elegant. They were the most beautiful photos I had seen after searching endlessly for weeks. When the day came, I was nervous. I really don’t enjoy being the center of attention and we had a pretty large crowd. Mindy really helped calm me down. Her relaxed, professional, friendly

Mindy and Marc are the absolute best photographers you could ever ask for on your wedding day! They made everything run so smoothly and got all the shots we wanted and so much more! They took the time to get to know us personally through emails, phone calls, text messages and through our engagement session as well as understand what photos we wanted together as a couple, bridal party, and family portraits. Our pictures turned out flawless and would choose Mindy and Marc over and over again.

Mindy is one of a kind photographer. She really loves what she does, and it shows through her work. From speaking over the phone about my husbands and my story to sending out forms to fill out to organize our day, Mindy thought of everything! She takes her time editing the pictures and the outcome is amazing! I have decorated my walls with her pictures and they all turned out beautifully no matter the size. I’ve made canvases, metal prints, wedding album and framed work. When I had questions even after our wedding about how to print, she helped me along the way. Mindy went above and beyond as

From our first phone conversation with sweet Mindy we knew she would be the perfect photographer for our wedding. We really got to know her during our free engagement session (in our wedding package) and that helped my husband and I get comfortable with her photography style. I highly recommend the engagement photo shoot because it made our wedding day pictures such a breeze. I am such a planner and it was amazing that Mindy is too! I even sent her my wedding day timeline a few months before my wedding and she would give me input and potential things to watch out for. That was months before my

If I could give Mindy 100 stars, I would. Hands down the best vendor, photographer, and easiest choice for our wedding! Mindy is absolutely incredible and has such a good eye for capturing every great moment. So down to earth and so much fun to work with, made us feel very comfortable. The best part about her is that she treats this like such a special experience, rather than a business transaction, like some other photographers we had met with prior. This will be the best vendor you choose hands down and could not be more pleased with how all of our pictures turned out and how comfortable she

After reading all of the reviews, we were very excited to work with Mindy. She seemed to be very on top of her game and promised a high level of service and communication.
After we signed our contract, we had a difficult time communicating with Mindy. We did our engagement shoot and Mindy set the turn around time for 2-3 weeks. We waited 4 weeks for our photos with little communication regarding the timeline. After waiting for 4 weeks, we were so excited to get our photos, only to be disappointed by the lack of attention to detail. My fiance's suit was bunched up, the angles were unflattering

My wife and I were nervous on selecting a photographer because we both know we don't do amazingly well in photographs, especially posed ones. Mindy, however, did an excellent job making sure we were comfortable and getting a variety of pictures that captured our best sides!
She is very professional, easy to work with, and has a great personality. She worked with our budget and needs and gave us photographs that we have made both an album and several fun photo frames of. I highly recommend her!

The easiest decision of our wedding was made when we came across Mindy's website.
Their passion, enthusiasm and absolutely stunning photos made the decision a simple one. Knowing that Mindy and Marc taking so much care documenting our wedding day in the amazing way they do really took the pressure off.
We can't recommend Mindy and Marc highly enough; going above and beyond, They are the people you need behind the lens.

Ohmygosh! I don't even know where to start! We are so extremely happy that we chose MLP for our wedding photographers! Mindy and Marc are two of the most genuine people we have ever met. They are so friendly and go out of their way to get to know their brides and grooms and we loved that so much! They made us feel so comfortable and always had us laughing! Thank you so much for all of our amazing photos and everything you did for our big day! We can't thank you enough for how incredible our engagement photos and wedding photos are (and we've only seen one wedding photo so far! ;
