Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: Polston Photography is a success because we give what the client wants, outstanding service and sensational photography! Depending on the service, every client receives a certain designated hour of coverage and multiple high res edited images for you to download from dropbox. You also receive a password protected gallery slideshow for easy viewing to share with friends and family. Don't have time to print or would rather us take care of it for you? Polston Photography offers a variety of print and canvas options as well as several photo book layouts designed by the photographer. I take great pride in my work and value my clients time and wants. For instance, on Valentines Day 2016, you could have found me laying in the middle of the snowy street to get the perfect shot while my husband held traffic for me. Or two weeks before, climbing up the terrain park in 8 layers of clothing to shoot my nieces and nephew taking their first jump on skis. My point is, I will always go the extra mile to ensure we get the best photos possible. My philosophy is, the more I give the more I make people comfortable resulting in the best images. Although I do take posed shots, I like to have a fun time during the session, being goofy and incorporating activities to get the perfect action shot of my clients with no forced smile.

HIRE AMY NOW!!! Not only does she know what she's doing, but she also has fun doing it. My husband and I visited Chicago over Valentine's Day weekend, and we wanted a photographer to follow us around to all of our sentimental and favorite spots in the city, including the park where we got engaged. Amy seemed just as excited about this plan as we were! She was prompt and professional from the start and willing to do just about anything to make sure we were happy - including spending her Valentine's Day with us, which turned out to be 14 degrees and snowing. At one point, she literally laid in the middle of a snowy intersection in Wrigleyville to get a good photo, and she also gave us her cute furry hats to wear! She made us forget how cold it was outside, and it felt like we were just hanging out with an old friend all day. Plus, her husband was a huge help, very supportive, and funny! We would have given 5 stars on the experience alone, but then we got the photos, and they're GORGEOUS. She took HUNDREDS, and she did a fantastic job. Amy even gave me a dozen edited photos the same day so I could post a few on social media. I truly cannot say enough good things about Polston Photography. We only wish we found her sooner to photograph our wedding! As I said before, just HIRE HER NOW, you won't regret it.

Amy provided quality service within a tight timeline. She remained professional and creative during less than ideal situations with our new born's photo shoot. The photos turned out great. Capturing the absolute best moments for memories to be cherished forever.

Amy photographed my daughter's Bat Mitzvah, and was with us before the service, at the luncheon, and at the kids' party at night. From the moment the day began until the last dance of the evening, Amy was ON! She has a fabulous eye for detail, and quickly figured out who the "key players" in the crowd were, so we could focus on being with our guests and just having phone. I was so confident she was getting all the photos we needed, I didn't pull my iPhone out once, which for me is a big deal!! The photos came quickly after the event, and were AMAZING! We sent out the link to the gallery and people were so happy to see the results. My sister hired her that night for my niece's Bat Mitzvah, and we will definitely use her again for our family events and photos. Amy is kind, personable, and very professional, and was a joy to work with. I would recommend her to anyone... You will not be sorry!

Amy was outstanding to work with for my proposal to my fiancé. She was professional and responsive, and even showed up 15 minutes early to accommodate us. The photo quality was A++ too. I couldn't recommend her more for whatever you need photographed!
