Chicago Maternity Photographer // Aletha + Greg! : A casual summer maternity session along the Chicago River.

Chicago Maternity Photographer // Aletha + Greg!

FIND ME ELSEWHERE

I’m a wedding and portrait photographer, and I’m also a disability advocate working to make the wedding industry more accessible, thoughtful, and welcoming. I believe love stories deserve to be told in spaces where care, dignity, and access are part of the experience - not an afterthought.

This work is deeply personal to me. I’m helping build an industry that’s ready for my daughter, Gabby - so that when it’s her turn to dream, celebrate, and be celebrated, the world is already open to her, just as she is.

I'm Kellie

Chicago Maternity Photographer // Aletha + Greg!

Greg and Aletha were in Chicago for her sister’s wedding. I was the photographer, she was the fantastic wedding planner/bridesmaid. Being over 20 weeks pregnant….what a better time and place to do a maternity session?! We decided just a quick session would be best…..after all….shooting outdoors when it is 93 degrees isn’t always the greatest idea!

This is baby #2 for these two….making Eames a big brother. They are waiting to find out the baby’s gender, but I’m guessing a little baby girl will maker her appearance in January! I can’t wait to meet her…..!

(Disclaimer: I don’t actually know if the baby will be a girl, that is just my guess. No need to start any rumors 🙂 )
