Love notes
“My fiancé and I hired Meredith for our engagement photos and highly recommend her. Meredith was very communicative leading up to our appointment and even encouraged us to bring our dog! She made us feel very comfortable throughout the appointment and seemed to have endless poses for us to do to help give us variety in our pictures. Meredith continued to keep in touch with us after our appointment, sending sneak peeks and getting all of our photos done in under 2 weeks. Can't wait to have her shoot our wedding!”

“We did a mini session with Meredith and it went perfectly! She made sure that we had the best location, outfits, and poses! Highly recommend Meredith for all of your photography needs!!”
— the eichhorn family
“We loved our experience with Meredith so much that she’s done two family sessions for us. She made us feel very comfortable and was great with my (now) 3 and 5 year old girls. The pictures turned out amazing, and the turn around was very reasonable. Highly recommend!”
— The Ruppel Family
Let ’s tell your story.
Capturing the moments that mean the most to you with a touch of creativity and expertise. Let's freeze memories to last a lifetime, together.
Meet Colin
Colin’s goal is to capture your truest moments, documentary style. With a background in journalism, He aims to deliver a true-to-you story that brings you back to the moment everything happened.
Colin has been working with Meredith from the very beginning of Meredith Hislope Films and Photography. Colin received a degree from the University of Illinois in Journalism, which led him to discover a love of documentation visually.
When not behind the camera, Colin is probably watching sports (specifically the STL Cardinals or the Chicago Bears), or covering sports for the University of Illinois with our local NPR station, OR playing tug-of-war with Meredith and Colin’s dog Pluto.
Meet Meredith
Meredith’s hope for you? Stunning documentary images and films that chronicle your love, your in between moments, your memories—as they happened naturally.
Like you, I am a romantic at heart. I ask the absolute most out of photography and know how to make it deliver. I expect your images to feel honest, exciting, loving, and above all, real. I believe the best films are made by stepping back and observing, allowing you and your loved one space to just be you. Need some direction? No problem, I can help with that. However, my ultimate goal is always to provide you and yours the space to just be yourselves.
When not behind the camera, you can find Meredith sipping on a latte with her husband Colin, reading utopian fiction, or maybe even watching Pride and Prejudice (the 2005 version) for the one millionth time.
