My approach is all about making sure you feel at ease. From our initial call all the way until you're exiting your reception—I want you to feel confident that every little detail is getting taken care of. Because when you have that reassurance, it allows you to just have FUN and to truly enjoy your day!
In the weeks leading up to your wedding, we'll create a timeline of photography for your day, and make sure we are prepared for success! I'll also chat with you about a shot list of group photos and family photos to make sure you don't have to worry about anything on your day.
03.
I'll put together a digital quote and contract for you that you can approve and sign it online!
02.
Fill out the contact form and tell me about your day! We'll set up a call or a meeting to get to know each other, and help guide you to pick the right wedding package for you.
01.
A beautiful, digital, online gallery of your edited photos 4-6 weeks after your wedding day! Easy access for you and anyone you share with. Unlimited downloads make getting and sharing your photos easy for all.
04.
If at all possible, I love to do a location that's important to you and your partner! Maybe where you got engaged? Or one of your favorite summer spots? A favorite park near your apartment- or the college where you met. Nothing wrong with an iconic Chicago location, or a beautiful wild field. Ask me and we can brainstorm together!
Where should we do our engagement photos?
You get to pick your favorite wedding photos, out of all the ones you get, and from there I build the first draft of the album. You get access to an awesome online program that lets you request changes and perfect your album. So it's very much a collaboration to get it exactly right for you. Or, you can just let me take over from day one, if you prefer me to make all the decisions!
How involved in the album design process can we be?
I'll go practically anywhere, if we are a good fit! If your wedding is outside the Chicagoland area there may be a small travel fee, depending on distance! I've shot weddings all over the country- I love going to new places. But I also love shooting in the ones that are oh-so-familiar to me- right near home.
How far will you travel for our wedding?

"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.

I want you to truly experience your wedding day rather than spending the majority of your time worrying about details and awkwardly posing for portraits. You can trust that I've got the details covered and that you'll actually have fun when it's time for portraits. That's my promise to you!
Right this way to actually enjoying taking photos on your wedding day...
