PRICING & INFO
So, why Sprung Photo? What makes us so different from the sea of photographers out there?
Our reputation and experience!
Victoria Sprung has been a full time wedding photographer since 2007, with over 650 happy couples photographed. You can read all about her right here on the site. She knows where to be, when to be there, and when to take the picture that creatively tells the story of that moment. She hunts for those fleeting moments that last a millisecond. You’ll get consistently beautiful, creative, and well lit photographs.
Check out our over 100 five star Yelp Reviews for some honest feedback from real clients. Victoria is a strong believer that amazing photography should be among your most important investments for your wedding, and strive to make the images and artwork that you receive absolutely stunning and emotionally impactful.
We are a Woman owned and operated, independent small business!
Customizable Wedding Photography Styles
We like to provide many different styles of photos for you on the Wedding day. Do you really love the candid, real moments, but also want to make sure you get traditional and classic shots? Do you also want something unique with epic lighting mixed in? Then we are definitely the right fit for you.
Special Note:
All Wedding bookings help us donate more time and money to animal shelters and animal welfare organizations such as Tree House Humane Society, the Catcade, the Orphan Kitten Club, and PAWS.
THE COLLECTIONS
Our prices are listed here. We know it’s difficult when you’re researching photographers to just find basic info, so we wanted to make it easy for you!
Transparency time: Are the prices "cheap"? No. Are they competitive? YES! Especially for the uniqueness of our style, experience level, and technical skills. To be honest, you could find someone with a camera to take snapshots at your wedding for a couple hundred bucks, or even free. But you're probably not going to like the results. :) Amazing wedding photography from an experienced Pro is an investment that will last you the rest of your life. Make sure that you LOVE your photographer!
SPRUNG PHOTO IS DIFFERENT
Here at Sprung Photo, we definitely do things in a different way. This also extends to our pricing. We live in an age where we have thousands of photos stored on our phones, and we view them occasionally on their little screens. There is something so fulfilling about having your favorite wedding images printed beautifully in a book or on your wall, where you get to enjoy it every day. Photos are a reminder of who we are, who we love, and the moments we've created together. They should be enjoyed every day, not stuck on a computer or phone!
Ok…this is really exciting…
With all of our photography collections, an artwork credit is included in the price! This credit goes toward a shopping spree on wall art, albums, prints, framing, and more! Victoria will help you pick out gorgeous museum quality artwork for your home, and beautiful archival quality wedding albums. This 'guided art experience' is curated with you by Victoria, your artist. :) So, you pay for our time and talent to create the beautiful photos for you, and you also get to have amazing artwork made from those photos. And...high resolution digital files are also included in the collection price!
What about Video?
In an effort to bring you STELLAR work, we focus our craft on Photography only. However, we highly recommend Keith, from Poetic Products for awesome videography. Having a photo and video team who work well together and share the same vision is essential! Click on his photo to go to his website to learn more, and to contact him.

CDs are outdated, usb drives will be eventually outdated too. Hard copies of printed materials will never be outdated! We don't want the digital files of one of the biggest days of your lives to do nothing but sit on your hard drive for years, rarely to be seen again. Let us help you pick out the photos that sing to you, and put them up on your walls to be enjoyed every day. Let us help you curate the photos to tell the story of your day in a gorgeous album that will stand the test of time, and be handed down through generations.
Our super high quality wall art, albums, framing, and prints are Made in the USA. They will stand the test of time, becoming gorgeous family heirlooms. Your vibrant photos are printed on lush, high quality papers and materials, with high quality inks to match.
"Starting" prices are the smallest sizes, and go up in price from there. Some clients spend only their artwork credit, and some order multiple items over their credit. It's all up to you. I will walk you through everything, and help you curate a custom collection!

Why is a full day of coverage so important?
As documentary, candid photographers, we want to tell the story of your day. This means having your photos match the memories of the day from when they begin. A few photos while you're still getting ready, and all the way up to the epic dance floor! Some of my favorite photos are of the moments that happen before and after the main/major moments. The more time we have, the more creative we can be. The more time we have, the more opportunities we will have to capture amazing moments, portraits, and details for you! Don’t worry, you won’t have to “do” anything for the camera for about 90% of the day! We will take some glorious portraits for you, but the rest of the day we are there to just simply document everything for you in a creative way. Also, we don't want to have to watch the clock, and we don't want you to have to either! We don't want you to have to schedule your day around what time we start and end the coverage. We are there to capture it all!
Other things that are included in all the Collections:
- Your photos will be edited for correct color and tone, and polished just the way you see them on our website portfolio
- No travel fee up to 40 miles from 60647. Yes, we are available for travel everywhere! See travel fees below for locations outside 40 miles from 60647.
- Coaching, guiding, and direction for your portraits on the wedding day by your experienced, creative lead photographer.
HOW TO BOOK
A retainer of 50% will book your date. Payment plans are available!
More Fun Stuff to Add-on to your Collection:
Engagement Sessions with your Photographer: $400
Extra hours of coverage are always available.
We also do Boudoir! Drop me an email for more info. :)
More info on Add-ons:
Engagement Session: What better way to get used to being in front of the camera than to practice before the Wedding with YOUR Wedding Photographer? An Engagement shoot also helps us get to know how to direct you, and we'll be able to get to know each other so that we feel like an extension of your friends and family on the wedding day. Those are already good reasons to do the shoot, but some good uses for the photos would be to get a sign-in guestbook or canvas for your Reception, or Save the Date cards! Engagement sessions take place in the City of Chicago. We have found that one location with a lot of variety (we will help you pick it!) and 1 hour of shooting is just about perfect. Engagement sessions with your photographer: $400 (including a $200 artwork credit). The price also includes the high resolution digital images.
Travel Fees
- No fee for travel up to 40 miles from 60647, unlimited locations on the big day.
- Over 40 miles from 60647: $200 travel fee
- Over 50 miles from 60647: $250 travel fee
- Over 60 miles: Travel fee will depend on the location, and may include a fee for a hotel night. Not all of our photographers are available for travel over 60 miles from 60647.
Pricing is subject to change. Wedding dates are not officially held until a retainer fee is received, and a contract is signed

"Victoria was extremely professional and approachable right from the start. Since we had no experience hiring a photographer before, she made things very clear about how the process goes and how she would approach our wedding day. It felt more like chatting with a friend than a stranger, which was a great feeling to have when you're trusting someone with your wedding day!"
- Steph & Jackie
"It's weird to think that a stranger will be such a huge part of such a personal and important day, but she and her team were a joy to work with, and we are lucky to have found a photographer who can both produce beautiful photography, and also be a positive part of your wedding day."
- Jeremy & Patrick
"Victoria photographed our winter wedding this past February and we could not be happier! (One of the photos of us even won an award.)
Our getting ready, first look, and bridal party photos are so, so beautiful. She was the only photographer I spoke to who was actually EXCITED about photographing outside in the snow and the photos show it."
