So glad to see you here. My name is Kelsey Combe (pronounced comb-bee!) and I'm a wedding & lifestyle photographer currently based in Chicago, Illinois.

About Kelsey

Hi everyone! My name is Kelsey Combe and I’m a wedding photographer- based NOW in the greater Chicago area. Ready to be known as one of the best Chicago wedding photographers in the biz! Whew. It has been a ride. Let me tell you all about myself, and share some of my favorite wedding images from over the years (fun fact, I’ve shot over 400 weddings!).

A Little About Me!

We moved to the Chicago in the fall of 2023 after a whirlwind few years of pandemic, career-changing for my husband, and baby-having. I have two little kids, an adorable doggo, and haven’t had a lot of time on my hands to market myself. But I’m here now, and so excited to shoot your weddings, engagements, and events around the greater Chicago area! Kelsey Combe Photography was launched way back in 2011, when I was newly married and pursuing a dream. It grew very quickly and soon I was shooting 35-40 weddings a year, in and around the Big Apple. Now I like to only take on 20 weddings a year max- this helps me focus on individualized attention for every bride and groom.

"Kelsey Combe is truly amazing! From the moment we hired her, she was professional and fun to work with. She has an unbelievable talent for what she does, and after our engagement photos came back, we knew we had 100% made the right choice hiring her as our wedding photographer. She was responsive throughout the entire wedding planning process and was happy to answer any questions (and like most brides, I had a lot). She perfectly captured our day - it was like the photos came to life to tell our wedding day story. All of our friends and family were in awe. We could not have been happier with everything!

"Hiring Kelsey was the BEST decision!"

"Kelsey made everything so straightforward, and the day of the wedding, she was a godsend. Despite the 90+ degree heat, she kept everything on schedule to the minute. She took so much of the stress out of the day, keeping us all relaxed. I really can't recommend Kelsey enough!"

"The absolute best!"

 Kelsey was more than just our wedding photographer! She helped keep everything on schedule, keep our bridal party and family organized for pictures, and even clean my dress multiple times as it got dirty walking on the streets of NYC. As the bride, she made me feel so relaxed and stress free on the day of the wedding, any bride's dream! Also, Kelsey's pictures are AMAZING!! We were so happy when we got them back, she truly captured every single detail of our wedding day so it felt like we were reliving the day.
