Henry Ebert first opened Ebert Studio’s doors in 1915. The Studio was originally located in Chicago at the intersection of Pulaski and Madison Streets.

After completing high school in 1930, Henry’s son Will joined the studio. Soon after, he earned the distinction of Master Photographer, and quickly became known as “Chicago’s Leading West Side Photographer”.

In 1960, Will’s son Bob took over and moved the Studio to Oak Park, at the corner of Lake and Austin. Bob moved the studio to it’s present location at 227 South Marion Street, in Oak Park, in 1980. That same year he was awarded with a Master of Photography degree.

In 1991, upon receiving degrees in Art and Psychology, Bob’s son, Jeff joined the family business with the same dedication and commitment to excellence. He is an accomplished professional photographer specializing in in portraiture. Born into a family of fine photographers, he learned the craft entirely from his father. Jeff is the fourth generation in a line of professional Ebert photographers.

Jeff owns and operates Ebert Studio, following Bob’s retirement at the end of 2005. Jeff is the premier portrait and wedding photographer serving the Chicagoland area and beyond. With over 15 years of professional photography experience, he offers a unique and incomparable fusion of the traditional and contemporary to create unforgettable images.

His work has appeared in various publications such as “Distinction: The Southern California Lifestyle”, “Your Day, Your Way: The Essential Handbook for the 21st Century Bride”, Time Out Chicago, Chicago Reader, and various corporate materials. Jeff’s work has also been honored by Professional Photographers of America and Wedding and Portrait Photographers International.

A partial list of Jeff’s portrait subjects include Cardinal Francis George, radio personality Paul Harvey, Bulls’ legends Norm VanLeer and Jim Clemens, Walter Payton, and “Harry Potter” director Christopher Columbus.

Jeff has been involved with the arts since grade school when his mom held “Arts and Crafts” night at his home every Wednesday night. It was only a matter of time before his dad would get a hold of him teaching him every trick of the portrait photography trade. Graduating from the University of Wisconsin with degrees in Graphic Design and Psychology there couldn’t have been a better match for Jeff’s career as a fourth generation portrait photographer.

Creating custom jewelry is our passion. The process begins with a meeting where you describe what you would like us to make. We measure any stones that you have and then we make a drawing. From that drawing we carve a wax model for you. The model is what your jewelry will look like. From this wax carving we will cast the piece in the metal of your choice. After casting, we pre polish and set the stones. Then a final polishing and any finishing details are added. We can create a one of a kind for you from jewelry that you already have, weather it is inherited or just something that you will never wear again. Or we can supply everything needed. We have diamonds and an unbelievable collection of rare and beautiful colored gem stones that are one of a kind by themselves. Please call us with your questions about any ideas that you may have. We look forward to working with you.

Rare Gem Stones are another thing that we love. Our selection of rare colored gem stones is something that we are very proud of. We are very picky when selecting these gems for our store. We pick the best stones that our suppliers have. Very few jewelry stores will have stones of the quality and rarity that we have. After much consideration, we will create a one of a kind design for each stone.

Repair Services, from a simple clasp adjustment to and extensive restoration of your family heirloom, Add-A-Pearl, pearl and bead restringing, a broken chain, a ring sizing to complete remounting, lazar welding for delicate and temperature sensitive repairs. We provide high quality repairs on all jewelry and watches. Most watch batteries are done while you wait. We also specialize in high grade watch repairs. No repair is too small, we will be happy to fix it for you.

Our Standard
Provide the highest quality repairs and service, Don’t compromise quality, Do it right the first time
Don’t rush, the best work takes time because, Quality is what our customer expects.

From island getaways to a castle in the sky, Viking Travel can transform your fantasy into a glorious reality. Viking Travel provides the absolute finest attention to detail when creating and booking your travel, honeymoon or destination wedding. Their experience, business associations, supplier relationships and long-standing reputation in the industry helps them provide you with every advantage when it comes to planning your trip.

Below is a list of some of the reasons we think you should choose Viking Travel.

1. Our ability to provide the best options and prices.

It is not always – just about price. Our clients look to us to provide the best overall solution to their individual travel needs.  No two customers are alike. What works for one may not work for another. We take the time to better understand you and what you envision for your vacation experience.

2. We will save you money.

Saving money is also – not just about price. It is more about value. We know the cheapest is not always the best. When we talk to our clients about saving them money, “value for their money” is what they say they are really looking for.  This is where we provide a discernible difference. By properly understanding our customers upfront, we can recommend relevant offerings and also provide cost saving strategies. Moving a date, changing the location of a room/cabin, being open to flight options, etc., all can offer more value and save you money. We can add to your experience by sending a bottle of wine, providing a special land package, a specific escort or other customer amenities. We can also use our clout to obtain the best possible in seemingly impossible situations: whether it’s airline seats, hotel rooms or cruise space, simply stated: as a respected travel agency our travel agents have more buying power.

3. We offer product knowledge and experience.

Our clients rely on our industry knowledge, experience and insight. This is one of our most important attributes next to the offering of pricing and product options. Our travel agents have the proper training, knowledge, industry relationships, and expertise. We are strong advocates of continuing education thru fams, (Familiarity trips), site inspections, personal travel experience, promotional information, supplier websites and training, past customers, etc. Our insight is what our customers appreciate about us.  We offer more than just a brochure or handout. In addition, our accreditations are what build trust and credibility, because our travel specialists have made the financial commitment to be the best.

4. We have the ability to answer questions about your safety and security.

Safety and security have always been on the minds of our clients. Since 9/11, it has become more important than ever. Our customers come to us because we provide them with up to date information on travel destinations, whether it is political, health related, terrorism, airline or weather related.  In the world we live in today, this information changes rapidly and may be  critical.

5. We’ll save you time.

We live in a time deprived society. Our clients tell us they “have no time.”  The value we offer is our ability to provide a personalized travel experience at the right quality and price and most importantly, we save time and energy for our customers. Our travel specialists work hard; clarifying the fine print, such as cancellation penalties and restrictions and in addition they each have the insight to match the right travel product at the right price with the appropriate need. Like a personal shopper, our agents provide one-stop shopping for travelers who require air arrangements, rental cars, cruise accommodations, hotel stays, or who have special needs – with suggestions that are in their best interest at the forefront, not the supplier.

In fact, our clients turn to us to act as their personal travel concierges and consultants.

We know price is important, however, our clients tell us they prefer us because we give them more. We also serve as their advocate in the event something inadvertently goes wrong.

Being knowledgeable, saving time and energy, offering the best options, staying current with safety/security issues, and delivering the best value are attributes we offer every traveler.  And our clients know they can count on us.  In fact, they often tell us that these attributes are much more important than price.

Our number one goal is to make your vacation an outstanding experience, from the planning Our Clients are Number Onestage to your safe return.  In order to accomplish that, we pay close attention to your wants, desires and special needs to ensure everything is just perfect.

Our goal is to retain you as one of our valued clients. This is how we measure our success.

On behalf of our entire staff – we look forward to serving you!

No bride aspires to look “pretty good” on her big day. In order to look your absolute best on your wedding day it is important to begin your skin care regime early. At Belleza Skincare Institute our experienced aestheticians recommend that you come in for a consultation and begin implementing new products and treatments six months before your wedding day. It takes time for most treatments and products to work so it’s essential that you give yourself time.

The Hydrafacial™ was recently named the “top pre-wedding treatment for brides” by InStyle Weddings magazine. The Hydrafacial™ is the only procedure that combines cleansing, exfoliating, extractions, hydration and infuses antioxidants into your skin simultaneously. The result is clearer, radiant skin with no discomfort or downtime. The treatment is soothing and non-irritating and is suitable for all skin types.

Another great treatment for brides is chemical peels. Belleza Skincare Institute offers a wide variety of peels, including the Vi peel, perfect for improving and smoothing the texture of the skin on your face through an exfoliation process to remove damaged, dead skin cells from under your skin’s surface. Chemical peels are ideal for improving blemishes, wrinkles and uneven pigmentation.

There are several other treatment options available at Belleza Skincare Institute including laser resurfacing, Botox and dermal fillers, customizable facials, laser hair removal and microdermabrasion treatments. An aesthetician can help determine which treatment is right for you.
