John did a great job executing professional head shots for me. He took the time to understand my motivation for having the photos, and how I planned on using them. He was quick and efficient, and provided multiple formats of the finished product to use in different circumstance, whether they would be for website, print, etc. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs professional head shots for their business or personal needs.

John has done many shoots for me such as business headshots for my company, and promo shots for my organizations promoting animal welfare. He always provides close attention to details that matter, and does what he can to give us outstanding images!

J Smith

Last week our company engaged the services of John Manning Photography to do professional head shots of new employees and existing employees if they wanted a ‘do-over’. i jumped at the opportunity because i’ve never liked my pic (even though i was 7 years younger). Well, thanks to John’s ability to make one very comfortable in the session and his technical skills, he produced a head shot that totally blew me away! Thank you John for your skills and ability to make one comfortable and relaxed. I totally enjoyed the experience and recommend the opportunity to anyone who is looking for a professional, great quality head shot. And John’s access and response to inquiries was unbelievably quick!

John did my headshots on the weekend, which I appreciated. His work is excellent and his pricing is fair.

He is very flexible with scheduling and did my headshots at his Lake Bluff Studio (which is conveniently located in downtown Lake Bluff)

Great turnaround time on editing too, I had my options the same day and the edits done the next day.

J. Lubbers

John was very friendly and professional when he came in to take my picture for my company website. He took a lot of pictures and was able to get one of the best ever taken of me. He also happily edited to minor things spotted and made sure I was fully satisfied with how the portrait came out. Even provided different resolution pictures for multiple platforms of use.

John is an amazing portrait photographer. I am one who is typically not comfortable in front of the camera. John’s friendly style, conquers your trust, and makes you feel like you have been old friends for a long time. With John’s beautiful lighting and eye for detail he will capture your portrait like you were having the best day of your life!

Harper Harper

John Manning is a great photographer! He is a “one stop shop” and has helped my business a great deal over the years: video, professional photos, Web advice, help with my professional camera etc.

Hard working, smart, professional and for what you get John’s prices are very reasonable! My wife was a model and John took her headshots. Ok maybe I’m a tad partial, but some of the pics look like front page cosmopolitan photos. I am a dentist, John did my employee’s headshots. We are all extremely happy with the results. FYI I use my wife Headshots as logo recognition for my business.

Dr. Kevin L.

John is amazing, brilliant, so professional and yet so personable. I have gotten my professional photos done by him twice now in the span of 5 years and he has done amazingly! His coaching and recommendations are also stellar! And I recommend him anytime for your photography needs for you and for your company too!

Love Osaikhuwuomwan

John, I just got the CD and you did such an OUTSTANDING job!! I can’t thank you enough. I’ve got quite a number of shots to use for this issue of the newsletter, as well as for future issues. I hope we’ll be able to work together again. Thank you again. You have such a great eye for what I need, and did such a fantastic job of execution. I know a title office is pretty dull, but you went beyond what I expected in getting the shots I wanted. All the best,
