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.


Couples: Amy + Sam ~ Chicago Couples Photographer

Oh, Amy & Sam! I just wanted to squeeze them they were so adorable.  They were married last summer but never had formal engagement or wedding portraits taken so in celebration of Amy’s graduation from graduate school (a Masters in Comparative Literature with a Dissertation on a graphic novel – how cool is she!?) and landing a fantastic job as a college professor, they decided to treat themselves to a photoshoot with (lucky!) me.

We met up at the Lincoln Park Zoo on one of the warmest, most humid days I have ever experienced in my life but they were troopers and worked it like the secret-supermodels they are.

In these next two, I told Sam to work it like all Alaskan men do.

As Amy’s hooding ceremony at Northwestern University was the next day, we had to snap a few of her in her cap, gown & hood. CONGRATULATIONS, Amy!
