Steve Koo : Chicago Wedding Photographer | Blog

Steve is a Chicago wedding photographer specializing in modern, nontraditional wedding photojournalism. In addition to wedding photography, I also shoot engagement sessions and bridal sessions both locally and internationally. I love to combine my love for photojournalism to document your special day and use my fine art background to create contemporary, beautiful wedding photography. Most of all, I wants you to have fun on the big day, because the more fun you have, the more fun your wedding photography will be!

Steve Koo Photography is based in Chicago and has worked throughout the metro area, including Schaumburg, Arlington Heights, Naperville, Northbrook, Kenilworth, Evanston, Niles, and Skokie. My Chicago Wedding Photographer Blog shows my latest wedding photography, photojournalism, and engagement photography so that you can see what I’ve been up to! In addition to wedding photography, I’ll post some fine art photography lifestyle photography on my photography blog.

I love wedding photojournalism, but I also love shooting portraits. While traditional formal photography will always have its place, I use my background in fine art photography to take fun, nontraditional portraits. Remember what I said above? Have fun, and your wedding photography will be fun! View my photojournalism/documentary portfolio here, and portrait portfolio here. My engagement session portfolio can be viewed here as well, and I love shooting engagement sessions, too!

Chicago wedding photographer Steve Koo has been shooting fine art photography for years before discovering his love for wedding photography and photojournalism. My love for photojournalism and documentary style wedding photography captures all of the emotions, laughter, and tears on your special day, while my fine art photography background will be seen in your details and portraits.

I offer a DVD with high resolution digital negatives and modern and flush mount albums for purchase in addition to photography and engagement sessions. Since every bride and groom are unique, I create custom collections for every client after an initial consultation. High resolution digital files on DVD and albums are also available for Chicago engagement sessions and bridal sessions.

I have provided wedding photography or engagement photography coverage throughout Chicagoland, including Evanston, Schaumburg, Naperville, Oak Brook, Medinah, Arlington Heights, Oak Park, Palatine, Park Ridge, and many more of the area’s northwest suburbs. I am comfortable shooting in any environment or venue, and I have shot at a variety of  venues including the Chicago Cultural Center, the South Shore Cultural Center, Promontory Point, the Allegro Hotel, the Renaissance Hotel, the Botanic Gardens, Lincoln Park Conservatory, Cafe Brauer, the Newberry Library, the Drake Hotel, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Modern Wing of the Art Institute, Navy Pier Crystal Gardens, A New Leaf, The James Hotel, Kenilworth Country Club, Medinah Country Club, Cancer Survivors Garden, and many more.
