Summer Medinah Country Club wedding day with Chicago wedding and portrait photographer Kim Ritchie Photography.

There’s something so special about summer weddings in Chicagoland! Morgan & Joey’s summer wedding day at Medinah Country Club was no exception! From their heartfelt ceremony to the romantic glow of their reception, every moment was filled with love, beauty, and joy. Morgan & Joey first met through their church community, so it was only […]

Financial services headshots and team photos at The Rookery with Chicago wedding and portrait photographer Kim Ritchie Photography.

The Rookery is one of Chicago’s most iconic buildings! It’s also just as perfect for headshots and team branding sessions as it is for weddings and events. The incredible architectural details, light-filled spaces, and timeless style create such a polished backdrop for professional portraits. Recently, I had the opportunity to photograph headshots and team photos […]

Lake Geneva wedding at Lake Lawn Resort with Chicago wedding and portrait photographer Kim Ritchie Photography.

I’ll never say no to a Lake Geneva wedding! The views are so pretty, and the pace always feels a little more relaxed than a city wedding. As a photographer, I love working here. The fellow vendors are (usually!) wonderful to collaborate with, and there are fewer “rules” than you’ll run into photographing in Chicago. […]

Summer Chicago Botanic Garden wedding day with Chicago wedding and portrait photographer Kim Ritchie Photography.

The gardens are bursting with color, the light is golden, and the blooms are at their fullest. […]

Branding photos at The Crawford in Naperville for Stasia K Events with Chicago wedding and portrait photographer Kim Ritchie Photography.

This branding session was such a fun one! It beautifully bridges the gap between my wedding work (that I absolutely love!) and the branding, headshot, and commercial photography work that I equally love. Bonus: I adore this venue and would love to photograph a wedding – or more creative sessions – here at The Crawford […]

Modern Glam Wedding at Galleria Marchetti with Chicago wedding and portrait photographer Kim Ritchie Photography.

It’s no secret – I love photographing weddings at Galleria Marchetti in Chicago. This beautiful city garden venue is a gem tucked away in the middle of the city, and it always delivers something special. For Nabiha and Zohaib’s wedding weekend, it was the perfect place to bring their modern glam vision to life. To […]
