I recently had the pleasure of working with Mike Scarpelli for my wedding ceremony. From start to finish, he demonstrated exceptional professionalism and a genuine passion for photography.
Mike was super flexible when I had certain requests. He was very accommodating and maintained a positive attitude, ensuring that the photography process remained smooth and stress-free!
He truly captured every important and candid moment from our ceremony - and we even received the photos a lot sooner than I expected! It was so fun to look through the photos, I am so happy I chose Gerber + Scarpelli for our wedding. -

Couldn’t be happier
Belen, Nick, and the whole team at Gerber Scarpelli are top of the line. Belen does all of our family weddings - there’s no need to look any further. Her artistry and ability to take control and directive is exactly what a bride needs on her day. I feel like we got so much more than we paid for, and just couldn’t say enough good things about their professionalism, but really they just feel like they belong at the wedding. So so so happy we went with them. -

Gerber + Scarpelli was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. We had two photographers (Mike and Belen) from Gerber + Scarpelli for our big day and both had a great eye for detail and were able to capture every moment of our special day in a way that was both creative and stunning. The quality of their photos was exceptional, with each shot carefully composed and beautifully edited. We highly recommend this photographer to anyone looking for a professional, talented, and friendly photographer! -

Nick Gerber was a DREAM to work with. When we met with him by zoom ahead of our wedding he said he wanted to be the wedding stress sham-wow for our day and honestly he was. Not only did he help coordinate, wrangle and set up a timeline, he helped the groomsmen put on their boutineers, helped get my veil in and helped bustle my dress, this is all in addition to capturing our day. His energy is contagious and I cannot wait to see the photos.
ALSO, he took the most amazing engagement photos of us. Nick was our second attempt at finding a photographer (we had a previous company we were working with but parted ways because we didn't *love* the work they produced). We feel like he really captured us, our love and our relationship. He took the time to figure out what was natural for us and what wasn't natural for us and helped us feel super comfortable in front of the camera and gave us direction. Again, cannot say enough great things. -

Stop searching and book now! Nick Gerber was amazing and we couldn't have asked for a better photographer. Not only were the photos phenomenal, he was so much fun to work with and made everyone feel very comfortable. He captured the true joy of the day. Can't wait to call him back for the next big family milestone. Thanks Nick!! -

We have nothing but amazing things to say about Michael and the end results! The pictures are absolutely stunning and Michael was able to capture the day perfectly. His sense of humor played well with our wedding party and he worked flawlessly with the videographer the entire day. He does a great job at getting people in the right place and makes sure he gets the right shot. We can't recommend him enough! -

Moira R. Sent on 11/02/2021Fantastic experience! Cannot recommend enough!
My husband and I worked with Kurt and Belen for our wedding this past weekend and cannot stop raving about how much we enjoyed our experience. Kurt and Belen were fun, light-hearted, reassuring and approachable - they truly made what can be an overwhelming day so much fun. We had a change in plans for one of our photo locations and Kurt and Belen pivoted to another fantastic location without missing a beat. We were able to see some of our photos and are already blown away. We cannot recommend Gerber and Scarpelli enough and look forward to working with them again in the future! -

A+ Experience
We had the pleasure working with Gerber Scarpelli and Belen Aquino for both our 2020 micro wedding and then again in 2021 during our larger wedding celebration. Like many couples we had schedule and reschedule our larger wedding celebration three times and finally decided having a micro wedding in 2020 and Belen was fortunately with us along the way. I recall each conversation she reassured us stating "we are all in this together" and we always figured it out together. During this tough time that was exactly what we needed to hear and more importantly feel.
The Big Day came, Belen was not only so easy to work with, she captured the day perfectly -- so much emotion and energy in each photo. For these reasons, I cannot recommend the Gerber Scarpelli and Belen more! -

Amazing Photographers!
We used Gerber+Scarpelli for our engagement and wedding photos. Belen was our lead photographer and she is AMAZING! She made us feel so comfortable, gives great direction and most of all is super talented. Our pictures have been better than we could've imagined. Nick Scarpelli was our 2nd photographer for the wedding and he was also great. They are super creative in how they shoot- a nice mix of classic and modern. All of our guests and bridal party at the wedding also commented on how professional the photographers were during the wedding- getting the shot without getting in the way! We highly recommend this group and plan to use Belen again for future photography needs -

Anna Sent on 08/11/2017Amazing experience!! We had the pleasure of working with Belen first on our engagement photos and then our wedding. She made us feel very relaxed and comfortable. We had a great time in the process and got to see the city in the way we never have before. Belen took us to some very cool spots we did not know existed. We have to mention how creative, resourceful and on the spot thinker Belen is! Our wedding happened to be the weekend of Lalapalooza. One of the spots we planned on taking pictures at was impossible to get to, and we were running out of time, Belen thought of another amazing park and knew the quickest route to get there. There are so many other nice things we could mention about our experience, but in the end we are just so happy that we chose to work with Gerber Scarpelli. Pictures is what you have left to remember your most special day, glad we made the investment!!
We approved our wedding photo album in December 2018, but still have not received the photo album or even a response to multiple emails! We have contacted our photographer and the company multiple times. The pictures turned out great, however not sure that it's worth the price. -
User1316275 Sent on 09/05/2013Our top priority for our June 22, 2013, wedding was finding a fantastic photographer. We picked our venue, the historical Chicago Cultural Center, and immediately began our search for the perfect photographer to capture that romantic, "Old Chicago" feel for us on wedding day. After searching high and low and not feeling an immediate click with other vendors we reached out to, I saw Maggie Thalheimer's work at a friend of a friend's wedding on Facebook. I seriously gasped when I saw what she had done. So classic, so elegant. I remember immediately calling and typing a frantic email to find out if she was available on our date - as luck would have it, she was!
We cannot say enough fantastic things about Maggie. She totally got what we were looking for and ran with it. Our engagement pictures in Lincoln Park alone had our friends asking for her number for their upcoming weddings. We just got our wedding pictures back and they were better than I ever could have hoped for.
Also, a huge shout out to Tim Jaroz - the guys had so much fun with him, and he was just as sweet as Maggie. Truly phenomenal job. Upbeat, energetic, enthusiastic - yet professional. Both Maggie and Tim kept us all moving and helped us diffuse a few tense situations that popped up throughout the day. It was a very long day - starting at 11 a.m. and going til midnight, and they were troopers through it all. We kept wanting to hug them all day.
We can't wait to use Maggie/Tim for other photography events - pregnancy, family, etc.
If you're reading this review, don't think twice! Book them, book them, book them. :)
