Owner of Adam Novak Weddings with 170+ weddings under my belt. Wedding photography turns you into an excellent photographer and a great people person. It also forces you to know your equipment. I work with 3 cameras and 8 lenses and I can look at a location and quickly access how best to visually manipulate it using my arsenal of tools. I can also give direction to whomever I'm photographing. Wedding photography has forced me to become both technically savvy and comfortable in high-stress situations. Running a wedding business has forced me to both manage assistants and editors and to be punctual.About Me (statement from my website)I drink a lot of coffee, and I use humor to put you at ease. I love my camera and it loves me. I can charm your grandma into smiling and maybe coax your grumpy uncle into grinning. When it's time to take formal pictures, I'm not afraid to take charge of your rambunctious wedding party. If your dance floor is packed, and you're riding your new husband's back, I'll be there to capture it (you can either thank me or make me delete it later). If you want to fly me to Korea and feed me some kimchi, while I document your wedding week, buy the ticket. If you want to trash your dress in Chicago's Buckingham Fountain, I've done it, so let's figure something else out. To me, wedding photographs shouldn't be a drag. It's your party so keep the good times rolling, it'll show in the pictures. If you dislike posing, I can always quietly document the tears from the sidelines. I'm always on time and I've never missed a wedding. Please don't hesitate to contact me for more information.

Hired as in-house photographer for the Wikmedia Foundation which runs Wikipedia. One of my jobs was to take photographs of interesting Wikipedians that are making a difference using Wikipedia. My photographs were used for the 2013 end-of-the-year fundraising campaign. Those portraits were viewed by tens of millions of Wikipedia users all over the globe.
