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.


Love: Betsy & Kevin ~ Engaged! ~ Chicago Engagement Photographer

To say that I’m excited to photograph Betsy & Kevin’s wedding this August is a massive understatement. I just know that if we had this much fun trolling an Irish pub and wandering a farm, then the day they are actually married is going to be a ridiculously fun day. One thing I absolutely loved about spending time with Betsy & Kevin this past Sunday, was to see the very natural care and affection these college sweethearts have for one another. All that kissin’ going on? Their idea. :-)

Betsy & Kevin,
I cannot wait for your wedding day. Cannot!
Best,
Kelly

I love that Kevin kept wanting to play with Betsy’s hair.

If I could choose what clients would put on their wall I would print these next four on individual canvases and hang in a square.  LOVE them.
