Piero was so great to work with! He made the entire process fun and was easy to work with. We booked him for our engagement and wedding day shoot. He kept in mind the photos I had given him prior to meeting while also bringing in new ideas while keeping things lighthearted and humorous! We loved his attention and dedication through the entire process, he was even kind enough to handle small details on day of the wedding! We highly recommend Piero!!

5 stars! We hired Piero for our wedding, and he gave us beautiful photos! Very dependable, reliable, professional, and genuinely a good person. He cares about his work and makes sure that you are happy with the service. I got so many compliments on my photos, and several guests were amazed by Piero because of how helpful and amazing he was.

Words cannot describe how happy & satisfied I am with Piero’s work and help the day of my wedding. To start off he’s very reasonably priced. He’s simple. Efficient and gets the job done. He was very personable when taking footage. I love that he made everyone smile and get comfortable taking pictures. I love the quality and quantity of the pictures and poses he had for us! He’s very creative with his work. He delivers fast & you can keep all the files. Thank you Piero for being there for me on the most important day of my life! You made it very memorable!

Perio is an amazing photographer and professional, all while being chill and very easy to work with. His ability to go with the flow and capture so many amazing and fun photos on our wedding day and engagement is astounding! He somehow was everywhere and got photos I did not expect to find, but love! He even captured some really beautiful quiet moments that I thought was sweet and thoughtful!
Piero came with a plan and knew exactly what to do, which made my day easy and relaxing, I was never worried or felt rushed, which was a big deal to me.
We are so thankful to have these beautiful photos to remember our big day for the rest of our lives! Thank you, Piero for the hard work and passion you put in! We couldn't be happier! -

Hiring Piero was absolutely the best decision we made for our wedding in October 2023. We had 140 people at our wedding and he captured the day beautifully for start to end! He is so talented behind the camera, and also the best at providing guidance and comfort. My husband and I are sometimes awkward in front of the camera LOL, but Piero made us feel so comfortable that at times we forgot we were taking pictures. Within our package, he provided the Photo Booth and ceremony arch as well! Piero was so attentive and great with logistics. The photos were so candid, authentic, and I smile every time I look through our albums. Thank you so so much for everything Piero!!

We had the pleasure of working with Piero for both our engagement photoshoot and wedding, and we couldn't be happier with the outcome! From the start, he went above and beyond to ensure every detail was captured perfectly. We booked his photography and videography package for our wedding, which had over 250 guests, and he did a phenomenal job capturing the special moments of our day. His attention to detail, professionalism, and ability to make everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera truly made him a pleasure to work with.
We have already booked Piero for our next upcoming celebration. -

My wife and I hired Piero for our outdoor fall wedding. We both were not sure what we wanted other than a lot of pictures- neither of us had any idea of any specific types of shots we wanted. Legitimately, we lucked out big time with our photographer choice because Piero is on top of his picture game.
We did engagement photos with him and weren't sure of any poses- warning him that we'd need some guidance. He came with a plan, but also was so good with letting ideas unfold organically too. In seconds we were comfortable with his friendly energy and goofy spirit. On our way home after that session we both knew we picked the right guy- and we hadn't seen any photos yet. Within days (so quick) Piero sent us a file of gorgeous engagement photos with so many to choose from.
My wife and I did something weird for our wedding- we were married on a Friday with family and close friends and we threw a huge party the next day for the big crowd. We planned it ourselves and hosted on our own property. Needless to say, we were busy up to our eyeballs the months leading up to our big day (weekend lol). We hired Piero for both nights, he took the wheel requiring only a list of people we wanted in pictures, and he crushed it. He made our bridespeople so comfortable creating stunning portraits, he jumped right it on the dance floor with our guests capturing hilarious candid shots, he might have gotten up on our jousting inflatable to catch guests in action, and all in all capture our favorite moments just perfectly.
Piero is professional yet fun, good at planning and going with the flow, and he will represent your event exactly as it was. He has all of the plans and all of the backup plans down to a science.
Absolutely loved this guy! Don't luck out on your event- hire Piero for certainly perfect pictures! -

Piero treated us like family from the beginning. He did our engagement pictures with our new puppy. Piero was incredibly patient, kind, and had a great sense of humor that put all of us at ease. He then did our wedding and when I say that his pictures were magical, I mean it. He is incredibly talented, honest, and hardworking. Cant recommend him enough.

All of our guest were amazed at his professionalism, and how beautiful our wedding pictures look. I recommend 100%
Your Questions, Answered

Yes, my work area is in Illinois, but I’m currently accepting weddings from Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin
I don’t have travel fees for local weddings within the Chicago area, and suburbs like Napervile or Rockford. Anything 90 miles from Wheeling is free of charge.
The travel fee for 90-130 miles is just a small amount to cover minor expenses.
If I have to drive for more than 3 hours I add a hotel fee of 1 night.
If I have to travel by plane:
Only the full day fee is available.
All fees are included just for the wedding. Airfare, Hotel (2 days before and day after) Transportation.
Depending on the destination wedding, we can reach an agreement based on the costs. I’m flexible.
If you are Eloping in Mexico, Italy, Thailand, Japan, Vietnam, Germany, Ireland, France, Spain, Greece, etc… let’s talk! I’ve been to so many beautiful spots around the world that going back for a wedding would be a dream come true.

I’m very transparent with fees. I explain in detail what the package include and the additional fees for each couple (venue insurance add ons, travel fees, license fees for city parks and parking fees, if any).
My fees cover timeline support, endless phone calls talking about all your details, stories and more, visit the venue beforehand, an online gallery, next day delivery, your favorite pictures edited within a week, all pictures edited are delivered within 5 weeks or ASAP (busy months with late deliveries are May - June - October)
Album and Prints when requested (price per item is provided before production)
Photobooth, with props and background

I started taking pictures at a company I used to work for, covering from Christmas parties, employee awards, to portraits for management; but formally, I started back in 2017 and with weddings in 2018. Little by little, I got into more and more weddings with one year doing more than 35 weddings, my best year by far!
But, now I take less weddings per year. I started focusing more on delivering a better service, with reduced delivery times and with more attention to every wedding.
Now, I provide more for every wedding. I assist to rehearsals, I meet the couple at the venue, meetings here and there to talk about the timeline, meeting at the church beforehand, etc.

All types of parties, from Birthdays to Corporate ones.
Baby showers and Bridal Showers

You can find my reviews in Google and all major wedding platforms like Zola, the Knot and Thumbtack which holds me more than 150 reviews 5 star reviews. I used to get my wedding leads from there, but now it’s more hybrid. I used referrals, directly hired from venues or still from wedding platforms like Zola.
My pricing on wedding platforms is a little bit higher because besides paying for a membership, I pay per lead as well. So the best way to hire me for less is directly from here.

Yes! I provide an insurance certificate per event when requested.
