for her new season of life. In 2016, Karin started building EV Photography as single mom of her
1 year old daughter, Evie, and while she was pregnant with her son, Liam. She never dreamed that EVP would turn into what it has become today.
In April 2019, Karin and Greg were married on a private property in St. Pete, Florida. They had
an intimate, 25 person wedding with their closest friends and family. The wedding had a tropical garden vibe, a taco and tequila cocktail hour, and live music from a local street musician.
This job has allowed Karin to be present and available at home to raise Evie and Liam, grow as an artist, build a business that not only provides these opportunities for herself but other artists and families. She gets to work in luxurious spaces, meet amazing new people and be apart of the most beautiful of love stories. Capturing them is truly her honor and joy.

Jeff also grew up with his wife Faith and got married right after college in 2012. Their wedding was a cozy celebration tucked in the woods of Palos Park with their closest family and friends.
Jeff grew up a musician, always appreciated the creative arts and worked with a background in creative production. It wasn't until he and his wife Faith moved to L.A. that his love for photography truly began to grow. After moving back to Chicago, Jeff continued to develop his love for photography shooting families, engagements and weddings. In 2019 he partnered with Karin and the EVP brand she was building. He became a full-time EVP lead photographer in 2023. Since then being a wedding photographer has become his deepest creative passion as he gets to tell each couple's unique story, frame by frame, with artwork they'll cherish forever.

What was once a side gig, and out of great necessity, Karin found herself turning to her love of photography in hopes it would provide a little income and security
Jeff met Karin when they were in 6th grade where they both grew up in the south suburbs of Chicago. They grew up with a lot of the same friends throughout high school and college but if you would have told them back then they would be working the wedding industry together today, they would have laughed in your face!

"I can’t recommend working with EVP highly enough! Everyone was professional, fun, and genuinely excited about our big day! Honestly, it felt like we were celebrating WITH them! My husband and I appreciated how serious EV Photography was about the booking process and that their focus is on capturing timeless memories. You can actually see all the emotions and moments happening - they’re the best!"

We wanted our photos to capture the love, silliness, and subtle unique details of our wedding. When our big day finally arrived they nailed it! Jeff and Karin were more like guests than vendors, they fit right in with their creative, fun, easy going personalities with the greatest professionalism. We cannot be more grateful to have had such talented wonderful people capture our newest adventure and happy memories!
Overall, I cannot say enough good things about Jeff and the entire EV team. They took the time to know and understand Bill and I as a couple, and what makes us tick. They were then able to translate that into our photos which not only represented our day, but who we are. Thank you for capturing all our special moments! We will cherish them forever!

"Karin is an absolute dream! From our initial meeting to our album design session, we felt supported and heard by EVP. She made sure to get to know us on a deeper level and put our needs for our wedding before everything else. And when we had to reschedule our big day because of COVID, Karin made the transition seamless. We’ve received nothing but the biggest compliments for our photos and that’s all thanks to EVP."

“Could not have asked for a better team on our wedding day! They were more than just photographers - they were like our coordinators, support, and now friends! The whole team at EVP was so thoughtful from day one.”
- Bridget B.
Absolutely fantastic! We could not have asked for a better team to capture our big day! As most couples prepping for their big day, you want to choose vendors to help the day flow but also that helps you relax and enjoy. That is EXACTLY how our big day went with the EV team! We truly enjoyed every step of the creative process with Jeff and Karin! We really felt they got to know us and what was important to us.

“WOW, EVP did not disappoint! Karin captured the most amazing photos of all the most important moments. Planning a wedding during COVID brought a lot of changes and uncertainty, but Karin and her team were so flexible, made us feel comfortable, and took the time to get to know us as a couple to make sure our day was perfect.”
- Kelly & Kevin K.
"Words can't encapsulate how amazing the EV Photography team is. I had the joy of working with Jeff and Karin for our big day, and they captured so many special moments I never thought to look for! The consultation process, logistics planning, follow through, and vision casting really set a foundation to make the wedding a flawless masterpiece. I had so much trust in their team, and they delivered above and beyond what I could have ever expected. Would do it all over again! "
