Chicago Photographer + Kelly Ry Photography bio picture

Welcome, welcome!

Whether it's my home or my blog, I love visitors.  The ones that come to my home to visit add something new and interesting to the mix of daily life. But then they leave again, forcing me to return to daily life without their smiles and laughter.  The great thing about blog visitors is that they can come again and again, and need never leave. 

Photographer Vincent Versace said, "We came to photography because the world moves us in such a way that we want to photograph what we see so others can be moved the way we were."  And so it was for me.  Despite my deplorable skills with a canvas and paints, I found the joy of creativity with a camera.  

So welcome.  Make yourself at home.  Enjoy the people in love, the gorgeous details, and adorable families.  I'd love to hear from you.

PS. And as much as I love having visitors, I love being a visitor!  Although based in Chicago, IL I have had the pleasure traveling around the world to capture weddings and families, and I would love to come visit you.  Live across the country (or continent) or planning a destination wedding?  I'm a wonderful guest.  And I bring my camera.

Ok. One more ‘Guyer Family’ Sneak Peek. Just one more…

I realize that it sort of defeats the purpose of a sneak peek to post several of them so I’ll try to limit them to just two for the Guyer family.  But I just fell in love with this image of the youngest member of the family.

Love: Amanda & Matt ~ Part 2 ~ Chicago Wedding Photographer

While the posts about Amanda & Matt’s simply chic wedding in Chicago is coming to and end, their love is surely not.  And their fun!  My goodness, do these two know how to have fun with their friends and family.  Their wedding ranks up there in the top for the “fun” category with people of...

Love: Amanda & Matt ~ Part 1 ~ Chicago Wedding Photographer

Rain was not in the forecast.  An outdoor early evening ceremony was planned with orange and white Chinese lanterns strung in the trees that stood guard near the spot where they were to say their I’Do’s.  It was summer, after all.  Unfortunately, Mother Earth was not in the mood to comply.  The guests were gathered,...
