Wedding » Furla Studio

My fiancé and have had the absolute pleasure of working with Furla Photography and Video for our engagement and wedding photography and videography. Peter and Demetra are amazingly talented and extremely wonderful people who make you feel as special as the memories they help you capture and relive. We have worked with Peter on numerous occasions thus far and, I can say with sheer confidence, that he is tremendously talented in his vision and ability to capture such beautiful memories and moments held between you and your loved one/s. In addition, we just received out Save Our Date cards, which are unlike anything I have ever received or seen, thanks to the tremendous effort and time that Peter spent with us to ensure perfection and our happiness! If you are looking for a personable experience where you and your special day are put at the forefront of all, Furla Photography and Video is the perfect vendor for you. The time and insurmountable effort put into every single detail of every portion of your special day is beyond compare. We did a lot of research before finding Furla, and we found everything we desired for our wedding in this company. We look forward to our future endeavors with Peter, Demetra, and the Furla team for our wedding! More...

We used Furla for our wedding this past December from the intial consultation with Peter and Demetra to the day of photographer we had, Mariusz- we cannot speak any higher of our experience with Furla. The pictures were delivered to me promptly and the prices are so reasonable. Mariusz worked with us to make sure we got all the photos we needed, as well as some extras I'm sure we could have easily forgotten. Furla Photography made us feel comfortable and at home, we cannot thank them enough. If you are looking for a wonderful and professional wedding photographer (or any other photographer) Furla Photography is a class act. Thank you! More...

Love Furla! Cannot say enough positive things about Peter and Demetra. There are a lot of photography options out there, but you really get what you pay for. For such an important (and overall expensive) day like your wedding, it was really important to me I hired a company that had lots of experience and was an actually established business. I know people who hired "freelance photographers" who meet you at Starbucks, can be unreliable and go MIA. Or photographers that do it as a hobby for fun... for such an expensive and important part of capturing all our wedding memories, it didn't seem like a smart risk to take to cut corners. I hired Furla Photography and they were great! They were wonderful to talk with at their studio business location, gave us many options to customize the style of photography and scheduling the day. They are professional and friendly! Furla made me feel special like a movie star/model on my wedding day capturing all the photos I wanted and more! My husband and I are very happy with our entire experience and with the photographs/video. We will continue to recommend and use Furla for future baby/family portraits and events. More...

My experience with Furla has been excellent! They did an outstanding job with my wedding photos...truly perfect! The photographers on the day of my wedding (Rick and Rich) did a great job capturing our special moments and keeping it fun. Moreover, after the wedding, Peter did a superb job editing/arranging the album with me. One exceptional item to note -- He spent 2+ hrs with us photoshopping my uncle in to our main family shot. We were heartbroken on the wedding day that my uncle could not be in this photo (it was a legit reason lol), and Peter saved the day! My family will be forever grateful for this effort. Thank you Furla!! More...

We used Furla Studios to shoot our engagement/wedding. To be honest, they exceeded our expectations and more. Money well spent! Their staff represented top notch professionalism and the owner himself (Peter Furla) was present to make sure everything was done to the best of quality. He was also more than accommodating with any of our asks, sometimes on the fly too. You can tell they truly have a passion for their work too.I have already reccomended Furla Studios to many of my friends in search of a professional photographer. I rarely write reviews but I felt compelled to spread the word about how amazing this service was!Thank you Furla Studios!!! :) More...

We love Furla Photography. We go to Furla for every occasion! As a life-long customer I can confidently say I trust Furla and always know that they provide professional and high quality work. They truly want to make their clients happy and have always been accommodating. I have used Furla for multiple passport pictures, birthday parties, baptism, graduation, bridal shower, engagement, baby announcement, newborn and wedding. LOVE my pictures (and I am very particular)! They work with what style photography you want and even provide a mix of styles if you decide to do that during your consultation. As a customer with years of experience using Furla Photography, I highly recommend this company. There are so many new companies out there that are inexperienced, end up being no-shows, or provide bad quality images for a high price. Not worth it to risk it on those companies for such special occasions. Furla is the best, professional and truly talented! Ask for Peter or Demetra the owners; they are wonder people to work with. Peter is a certified photographer who is well known in the North Shore / Chicagoland area and Demetra is an amazing custom album designer. Great experience every time, very happy. More...

I booked Furla Vision for my wedding six years ago.  The "highlights" video that I received from them was nice.  However, my twin sister just got married, and her highlights video was amazing.  Like a movie trailer.  Their editor, Jacqueline, was the one who sifted through nine hours of footage and selected the most perfect moments to showcase on the video. Since my wedding was 6 years ago and since I only had 2 hours of video footage as opposed to my sister's 9 hours, I didn't have much hope that anything could be done with my wedding video that would result in the same quality as my sister's.  However, Jacqueline reviewed my footage and assured me that she's be able to put something together for me.  I was AMAZED with what I received in return.  My updated video is a perfect representation of my wedding day, and Jacqueline was able to showcase the most perfect moments just by instinct alone.  She is a true artist in every sense of the word.  I'm not sure how many editors Furla Vision uses, but I can say that Jacqueline is incredible.  I cried when I watched my video, and I have watched it over and over again, each time seeing something I hadn't seen before.  I never knew how special a wedding video would feel until I received mine.  It was a true gift, and I will be forever grateful that my mom convinced me to redo mine  with their new technology and talent.  They have a gem in Jacqueline.  Even my husband teared up at seeing the video, and he never cries.  Great work!

If you are looking for photograpers who will go above and beyond to capture your special moments, then Furla Photography is who you should book! My fiancee and I visited their Glenview office to explore our options for a wedding photograper and we were beyond impressed with how down to earth and easy to talk to their entire staff was. They had tons of beautiful photo books, framed pictures and cards on display so you could get a good feel of their style. After we discussed package prices and asked lots of questions we went home to decide.  For us, it was an easy decision! Furla Photography made us feel at ease choosing them to take the most important photos of our life because we felt like they were not only excellent photographers but they were all SO down to earth, and easy to talk to, as if we'd known them forever.  I think that is important, as it reflects in how you photograph.  John was our photographer and he pored over all of my wedding inspiration photos on Pinterest with me, so he could get even more ideas of what shots I was hoping to get. On our wedding day, he and our videographers, even showed up early to get extra shots of our bridal party getting ready. I got every shot I wanted and then some! He was very easy to work with and did a great job of capturing our huge bridal party at numerous locations in downtown Chicago in a short amount of time.  Your wedding is in good hands with Furla Photography, I highly recommend them.

Bart and Jon were my photographers for my New Years Eve wedding and they did an excellent job! I can't wait to see how the pictures turned out. Jon was assigned to work with my husband and his groomsman, and he said they had a lot of fun taking pictures - which was good to hear since none of them love taking pictures :) Bart worked with me and the girls and he makes it so much fun! Throughout the night they stayed on top of things to make sure I got all the pictures I wanted - especially some outdoor ones that I had completely forgotten I wanted to take! They pay so much attention to detail and I can't wait to see how our pictures turn out! I have no regrets working with Furla - they were a pleasure to work with from the first day I walked into their office.

We worked with Peter Furla and had a second photographer, Stacy. We were very impressed with their work. Peter was creative and both of them took the time to take amazing pictures of our families. When it came time to work on our book, Peter was patient and kind. Anything I wanted to change, he was more than willing to do for me. He made sure everything was perfect and his staff was more than accommodating as well. Anytime I called or emailed, they responded right away. We had to reschedule our engagement shoot several times due to family illnesses or rescheduling and Peter was incredibly understanding. Peter was absolutely a pleasure to work with. My husband and his groomsmen worked with Stacy and they really enjoyed themselves. Our wedding album is absolutely amazing. Their quality is just amazing.

We choose to use Furla for our 2012 wedding. We had met with several photographers/ companies and when we walked into Furla's Glenview studio and sat down with the owner (not our actual photographer) we did feel very "at home". The pictures on the walls are pretty (duh) and the albums seemed of good quality. Was it over our budget? YES. We were originally looking to spend half the price (cuz its totally doable) but I was too worried about the "get what you pay for" resentment after the fact so we splurged a bit. We opted out of the Videography due to $ but now wish we had someone to capture those special moments professionally.  John shot our engagement session, wedding photos, and prepared our thank you cards (we received lots of compliments on these). Overall we were pleased with our experience with Furla with an exception...After our engagement photos were taken, we had planned to save money and design our own "Save the Dates". Naturally we wanted some of our engagement photos incorporated in our STD's. Upon requesting these from Furla, we were told that company policy was to release all photos after the wedding at once on a DVD. After about a month of "kicking and screaming" they made an exception and emailed several photos that we had requested.  TIP: If you do plan on wanting any engagement photos provided to you prior to the wedding, I suggest you make this known before signing the contract in order to avoid our headache. John ultimately did a very good job on our wedding photos. After our engagement session we had requested more "fun" photos which he incorporated on the big day. He got a bunch of great shots and had to have been running around the whole time. I guess I had always pictured a photographer being the one to encourage the shot, a little bit of "gimme more, YES, YES" kind of attitude. This was not the case but clearly wasn't necessary to get great shots.We have no regrets with choosing Furla but considering it was our highest paid vendor we also had high expectations. More...

Chris at Furla was my favorite vendor of the day. He went over the day with me and knew my plan in advance. He showed up early and was very friendly and helpful in coaching me in what to do in front of the camera. He was almost invisible until I needed him to do something and then he was ready. He was a really calming presence on a very busy day. He was OK with me saying "Let's do this later" and then he would wait and film other things while I was busy. He even caught moments I didn't think that he saw and I am greatful to have thm on tape. He even chose to stay after his contract time because we were all having so much fun on the dancefloor and he wanted a little more footage. He was so excited about some of the shots that he took, he showed us them immediately. We had a really good time working with Chris and didn't feel like we were taken away from our day to work with him. In fact it was fun to steal away and do a few cool shots and then go back to our party. More...
