We worked with John on a corporate magazine shoot, multiple locations in and around Chicago. John was of great help because he also organized everything including scouting and scheduling. He is very reliable and it was overall a great experience and a pleasure to work with him. We received a large selection of very good images which are perfect for our needs and would always work with him again. Highly recommended if you need professional support and creative ideas. Thanks from overseas.

John was AMAZING as our wedding photographer!! We were so happy with his ability to maintain professionalism, a sense of humor, and calm demeanor in managing such a large wedding party. He captured all of the shots we wanted and quickly picked up on our style and came up with some amazing shots that were so perfect! I highly recommend him all around!!

We used John Kalad Photography for family pictures about a year ago and then again for pictures of my daughters shortly after our youngest was born this past spring. He was wonderful! He was able to work with a fussy newborn and a shy (and slightly crabby) three year-old perfectly. When the girls were less than cooperative, I thought for sure the photos would be a disaster. John made sure this would not be the case. He was able to get both girls to look at the camera (at the same time!) and smile, and he captured some really great moments. We walked away with gorgeous photos! I to used them for Christmas cards and gifts, and I am still getting compliments. We will be using John for family pictures again soon. I highly recommend him!

My family worked with John Kalad this past fall (2014). My wife purchased a photo shoot as a surprise to celebrate our anniversary. Given we'd never worked with a professional photographer before, I wasn't sure what to expect. John blew us all away with how easy/enjoyable he made the entire experience. We visited a local arboretum while the leaves were changing, and his insights into where to take the best shots, where to stand, how to look, what backdrop to use, etc. all contributed to a dynamic set of pictures we'll cherish for years to come. We'd highly recommend John Kalad Photography for anyone looking to capture those special moments with loved ones, no matter what the occasion!
