Eliana Melmed Photography

 Hi, I'm Eliana, a Jewish wedding photographer who gets it! Born in New York, raised in LA, and currently living in Chicago, I have a deep understanding of many different kinds of Jewish wedding traditions. My approach is about authentic moments, not stiff poses. I bring a journalistic style to documenting the day's events, from the pre-ceremony prayers to the post-reception hora. I know how much goes into planning a Jewish wedding, and I'm here to capture it all so that you can be fully present. While based in Chicago, I travel often for destination Jewish weddings (catch me in NY, Boston, DC and more)! I'm a full-time professional and my work has been featured in Smashing the Glass, CHI thee WED, Modern Luxury Weddings and more. Let's connect about your vision and how I can bring it life through luminous, timeless images. Mazel tov!
