Event Photographers in Illinois

We are affordable, but not cheap. We don't believe hiring a professional photographer or videographer should break the bank, and your wedding day certainly shouldn't cost you $10,000 to $20,000 just for photography. We keep prices down by how we work: our crews cover several events a day, so we run at high volume instead of charging one client for an entire day; our post-production team includes dedicated editors, some based overseas, who retouch and edit efficiently; and we share people, equipment and systems with our parent company, MacroHype. The result is professional cameras and lighting, experienced photographers and videographers, and careful, professional editing at a price that is published on our website and the same for every client.

Yes. Every delivered photo gets standard editing: exposure, white balance and color correction. When you book, you can add premium editing ($50 per hour of photography) for detailed retouching, and professional color grading ($25 per hour of photography) for a custom, consistent color style.

Yes. We are fully insured through State Farm for $1 million each occurrence and $2 million general aggregate. If your venue needs a certificate of insurance, email info@macrosnaps.com and we will send it.

We leave a gap between shoots so our crew always arrives on time, and the time and cost of travelling to your venue is built into the first hour. Photography is $250 for the first hour and $100 for each additional hour; videography is $300 for the first hour and $200 for each additional hour. The minimum booking is 2 hours, and prices are the same wherever you book.

All bookings are non-refundable, because each booking secures the date and our team's commitment. If MacroSnaps can't perform the service because of unforeseen circumstances such as illness or equipment failure, you receive a full refund. Cancellations by the client aren't eligible for a refund or rescheduling. See our Terms and Conditions.
