Carmela is a must book for your engagement/ wedding photography
After having Carmela do both our engagement and wedding photos, there is no other way to describe her besides "true professional". We were blown away by both our engagement and wedding photos, and couldn't be happier with how they are turning out.
Our pictures are not only perfect, but she is so fun to work with. Carmela will play your favorite music as she helps make the photography process natural and painless. On top of that, she will help make the day of wedding process go as smooth as possible.
We can't recommend Carmela enough! We love our pictures and feel that we have gained a new friend through the entire wedding process.After having Carmela do both our engagement and wedding photos, there is no other way to describe her besides "true professional".

The best!!!!!
We are so thankful for you! You made us feel so comfortable and kept us laughing. You also took a bummer situation of me braking my foot the day before our engagement session and made it the most magical session. You saw my vision but made it better then I could imagine! You truly have a talent for this!
She got sneak peeks within 24 hours!!!!
Also her editing skills are 🔥. I broke my foot and had surgery a month before my wedding and she took my scars off my foot 🥲 and she made my photos look amazing you can’t even tell I only was able to stand on 1 leg.
She is amazing!!!! I can’t say that enough!!

We LOVE Carmela!!
We've had the pleasure of working with Carmela for several years now, and her photography never fails to amaze us. Her keen eye for detail and ability to capture the essence of every moment is truly remarkable. From our engagement photos to our wedding day, Carmela has been there to document our most cherished memories with elegance and grace.
Her professionalism, creativity, and genuine passion for her craft shine through in every shot she takes. Carmela's warm and friendly demeanor makes every session a joy, and her ability to make us feel comfortable in front of the camera is truly remarkable.
For our wedding videography, we entrusted Jacob from Sancho Weddings with capturing our special day, and we couldn't be happier with the result. Jacob's skillful videography perfectly complemented Carmela's photography, bringing our memories to life in a way that exceeded our expectations. His attention to detail, creative vision, and professionalism were evident throughout the entire process, and we're grateful to have had him as part of our team.
If you're looking for a dynamic duo to capture your special moments, look no further than Carmela for photography and Jacob from Sancho Weddings for videography. Their talent, professionalism, and dedication to their craft make them an unbeatable team, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have had them document our most precious memories.We've had the pleasure of working with Carmela for several years now, and her photography never fails to amaze us.

Carmela is truly the best!!!
I am so happy I found Carmela, we have had the best experience and the quality of her photos is truly amazing!! My and my husband had never had a professional photo shoot done together so our engagement shoot with Carmela was the first, we were so nervous but Carmela made us feel SO comfortable and made it so much fun, and the pictures turned out amazing!! Fast forward to wedding day, she was everyone's biggest hype woman and captured everything so perfectly. Not only is her editing style so beautiful but her communication, quality of work, and kindness make working with her so fun and easy. We will 100% be booking with her for all future photo shoots, I could go on and on about how amazing she is, if you are looking for a wedding photographer - Carmela is THE BEST!!I am so happy I found Carmela, we have had the best experience and the quality of her photos is truly amazing!!

All the stars for a rockstar!
We were so fortunate to find Carmela to take our engagement pictures and just recently our wedding pictures. She is an absolute treasure and an amazing artist that captures the most precious moments. We were so grateful that she made us feel so comfortable right away and was genuinely interested in our love story; which made the experience with her so much more special. We will never get over how amazing the pictures came out and how she made us feel. Thank you, Carmela! You truly are a joy.We were so fortunate to find Carmela to take our engagement pictures and just recently our wedding pictures.

Beautiful Photos Perfect Experience!
I could not have asked for a better wedding photographer. We already got a sneak peek the morning after our wedding! The photos are the exact vibe I wanted, I cannot wait to see the rest, and I know I will not be disappointed!I could not have asked for a better wedding photographer.

Best wedding photographer ever!
I could go on forever about why Carmela was the most amazing choice for our wedding photography….and I will! My fiancé and I were unfortunately one of the many couples impacted by COVID-19 in early 2020. We were 30 days out when we had to make the decision and Carmela was so understanding from jump. She immediately helped us find a new date in October 2020 that would work and offered to help us in any way she could. Her kindness and understanding during that switch alone speaks volumes but then we were forced to push our date due to COVID AGAIN. Carmela was unsurprisingly a complete gem in immediately finding us dates that would work in Oct 2021. Now, we are a few days past our wedding that finally happened - yay! - and she was a complete joy (no pun intended) to work with. Guests and other vendors reached out to me after the wedding to compliment her professionalism, kindness, and amazing work ethic. I couldn’t agree more with them. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable in front of the camera and has already sent us sneak peeks that left our jaws on the floor. If you have come across Carmela as a potential vendor, your search is over. She is the best choice you could make!I could go on forever about why Carmela was the most amazing choice for our wedding photography….and I will!

Carmela Joy is hands down the best!
As so many other couples would agree - Carmela Joy Photography was our only option when we became engaged. Though the pandemic forced us to postpone our date as well- it was a blessing in disguise because Carmela was available for our new date - In Chicago might I add!
Her photos speak for themselves, but ladies and gentleman- her personality, poise & professionalism is second to none! She made us feel like movie stars during engagement & especially the wedding (coming from people who are not used to being in front of the camera).
We are beyond blessed to have had her capture our day. We love you Carmela :)As so many other couples would agree - Carmela Joy Photography was our only option when we became engaged.

The Absolute Best
Carmela did both our wedding photos and our engagement photos, and she did not disappoint. Carmela is amazing! She is so sweet, makes you feel so comfortable, gives great direction, and obviously takes THE BEST photos. We've gotten nothing but compliments about how amazing our photographer was from all our guests. Everyone loves our photos and loved Carmela. I could not have asked for a better person to capture our special day; she is just amazing.Carmela did both our wedding photos and our engagement photos, and she did not disappoint.

Beautiful photos, Amazing photographer!
My husband and I hired Carmela for our wedding photography and can not be more pleased with our decision! She was always quick to respond and eager to answer all of our questions. Our wedding photography included an engagement session where we were able to meet and get to know Carmela. She is great at directing the subject in the photos to make it look much more natural. We were floored with her professionalism, her ability to keep on schedule.. and would recommend her to anyone! Thank you SO MUCH Carmela for capturing our day so perfectly!My husband and I hired Carmela for our wedding photography and can not be more pleased with our decision!
