Timeless imagery for weddings in California & Chicago and destinations worldwide

Editorial elegance & Emotional storytelling

California & Chicago Wedding Photographer & Videographer

The way it felt to be loved like that in front
of everyone you care about.

For you.

The one that comes when a room full of people turns toward you.
When everything goes quiet inside even though the room is loud.
When you realize all of these people are here because of you.

You know that feeling.

A wedding to be lived.
Not performed.

For Couples Who Want More Than Just BEAUTIFUL PHOTOS

THE QUIET DETAILS

DIRECTED, NEVER FORCED

THE IN-BETWEEN

THERE FOR EVERY MOMENT

Moments by Frank is a California and Chicago based wedding photographer and videographer specializing in editorial and documentary wedding storytelling.

I’m Frank, a Chicago based wedding photographer and filmmaker drawn to the quiet balance between editorial artistry and genuine emotion.

I believe wedding imagery should feel as lasting as the day was fleeting. I move through a wedding with intention and restraint—guiding gently when needed, and disappearing when the moment asks for space. The goal is never to over-shape the day but to preserve it with depth, presence, elegance.

Having photographed weddings across cultures and destinations, I approach each celebration with the belief that I believe wedding imagery should carry the feeling, the shape, and the significance of the day long after it’s passed. The photographs and films we create together become part of a family’s legacy, preserving moments that will be revisited for generations.

"He captured the most memorable day of our lives in the best way possible."

Frank is the best when it comes to taking pictures! Before our wedding, he met with us and was super helpful with planning and suggesting ideas for specific photos that we wanted for the big day. On our wedding day, he made us feel at ease on a day filled with a lot of emotion. The pictures we received came out amazing and they captured the most memorable day of our lives in the best way possible.

"With no direction, he took the task and turned into a work of art."

His photos captured my wedding day in the most beautiful way possible. With no direction, he took the task and turned into a work of art. He has captured memories that we will be able to enjoy for years to come. His photos brought tears to my eyes. When planning a wedding, its easy to forget how important the role of a photographer is, until the wedding is over and those wonderful pictures are all you have left to remind you of the most important day of your life.

"Extremely reliable, talented, kind, polite, thoughtful, and creative."

A wedding is a big undertaking and you need vendors who are professional and will put you at ease because of their expertise and experience. Frank is that guy. Photos are a huge part of your wedding day and the scheduling is hectic. Frank was kind enough to make a suggested timeline for the day so he could make sure we got all the shots. Not only is he professional, but he is also extremely reliable, talented, kind, polite, thoughtful, and creative.
