    Amazing Experience

    After looking through probably a dozen photographers we decided to go with Caleb and couldnt have been happier with the results! He was great to work with, easy to work with, and best of all a great photographer. At one point he said, I know this sounds silly but trust me, and the shot turned out as one of our favorites of the day. Would highly recommend

    Pickman Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! It was an absolute pleasure to capture the special moments of your wedding day. I'm thrilled to hear that you were happy with the results and that you enjoyed the process of working together.

    I appreciate your trust and willingness to explore creative shots – it's moments like those that often turn into the most cherished memories. I'm delighted that one of those moments became one of your favorites from the day.

    Wishing you a lifetime of love and happiness!

    Bringing your most beautiful moments to life! Highly recommend!

    Caleb and his team were absolutely amazing to work with and take absolutely breathtakingly beautiful pictures! We recently got married and used Caleb and his team for our proposal, engagement and wedding photography and videography. We had a huge bridal party and got married at multiple locations downtown Chicago all while having a complicated timeline and he made the process so easy! He truly enjoys what he does and is so pleasant to work with, he makes sure to take the time to get to know you as a couple to truly understand your vision to be able to bring it to life. Our pictures were more beautiful than we could ever imagine! A huge THANK YOU to Caleb and his team for bringing our most beautiful moments to life. Highly recommend!

    Wedding October 17

    Heard many good things from others using Caleb and his crew. Between his easy going demeanor and his professionalism he satisfied both my wife and I's desire. I wanted easy and simple, she wanted one of a kind photos, we got both. Couldn't of hired a better group to shoot our day!

    Caleb was Excellent!

    Caleb was very professional and experienced. He has a variety of packages that would include things like engagement pictures, wedding video, and, of course, pictures of the wedding. He has a variety of trusted people as back up if worst case something happened and he could not attend. He is very seasoned with shooting weddings in Chicago and has a great eye for the scenery, the city, and plenty of recommendations if you did not have specific places in mind. He really makes the whole process as easy or as involved as you want it to be. Overall highly recommend!

    Exceptional!

    Caleb was amazing! He was so much fun to work with and knew exactly how to make my fiancé and me feel relaxed and have fun, which definitely showed in our photos! When a couple of our location ideas fell through, he was ready with even better alternatives. He was professional, efficient, fun, and very flexible! I highly recommend Pickman Photography!

    So easy to work with!

    I loved working with Caleb - since I live in TX and got married in IL, I wasn’t able to meet Caleb till the day of, but throughout the entire planning process I felt we were in great hands. We had multiple calls to ensure we were on the same page as far as types and locations of photos. Caleb was prompt and kept the wedding party’s attention, so we were able to get the photos done quickly. I would highly recommend Caleb and can’t wait to see the final pictures!

    Pickman Photography's reply:

    Thank you, we had so much fun shooting your wedding! we look forward to visiting Austin at some point so we can hang!

    We just had our engagement photo session with Caleb and are so thrilled with how our photos turned out! We had selected a date about a month in advance which turned out to be one of the hottest days of the summer - 95+ degree temps. Needless to say, by the end of the shoot we were all SO sweaty but you can't tell in any of our photos! Despite the wicked heat, Caleb spent an hour and a half with us taking tons of shots, suggesting lots of poses, getting on the ground for cool angles, and ensuring we got the shots we were hoping for. He is such a nice guy and both my fiancé and I felt completely comfortable with him. To top it all off, our sneak peak was shared 4 days after the shoot and we got all our pictures 3 weeks after that - so fast! We don't have enough good things to say about Pickman Photography! We can't wait for our big day and are so glad Caleb will be capturing each moment!

    Newborn Photos

    Caleb did an amazing job taking newborn photos of our baby girl. He is extremely talented and professional. He was quick to respond to emails and was able to come to our house for the photo shoot on short notice. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer.

    Outstanding wedding photographer

    We happened to run into Caleb by chance online and are very happy that we did. He did an outstanding job with our engagement and wedding pictures. The picture quality is top notch, and beyond that Caleb is very helpful and responsive.
