Natural storytelling for authentic couples.

MEET AUDREY

Chicago Wedding Photographer

I continue to do this work because it's all about love, celebration, and joy. Getting to be immersed in this energy is a blessing. It's truly an honor, not only to witness, but to create artwork that captures your unique love. You can usually find me smiling during your couple session, laughing at speeches, and crying behind the camera listening to your private vows. Your love is special, strong, naturally beautiful, and you deserve images that embody that.

Weddings

For the romantic, fun couples who want images that feel true to you, tell your story, and capture candid emotions of you and your guests. I’ll help you prepare, build trust and comfort so that you can feel relaxed and supported on your wedding day.

engagements

For couples who are engaged and want to see what it would be like to work with me, get comfortable in front of the camera, and try out different poses so that your couple session goes smoother on your wedding day. The goal is to feel more comfortable with me, the camera, your bodies and ultimately just feel more relaxed on your wedding day.

boudoir

For women who want to celebrate themselves, feel empowered, beautiful and sensual. Included is a studio location, outfit and posing guidance. The goal is that your session will give you an improved sense of self esteem, so that after our time together you’ll look at the images and see how beautiful and goddess-like you are.  I want this session to grant you permission to be yourself and have acceptance for where you are in life. (This session also makes for a great wedding day gift!)

Audrey Simper

What should you expect?

Even though my style is natural and documentary, I take a more hands-on approach to working with my couples. Before the shoot we will discuss insecurities, doubts and concerns so I know how you prefer to be photographed. During the shoot, I’ll guide and pose you to look your absolute best. I will also offer prompts to help create natural and candid movement, and will give you intuitive space to let your own unique energy show itself with acceptance.

  • Love From Delia

    “If you’re looking for an excellent photographer, look no further! I worked with Audrey for a boudoir shoot, as well as our wedding, and she was fantastic for both. She made us both feel very at ease immediately and I couldn’t have been happier with how both shoots turned out. She captured such special moments at our wedding and there isn’t a single shot I didn’t love! She responds very quickly to correspondence as well. We loved working with Audrey and will absolutely use her again for any future photography needs we have!”

  • Love From Marisa

    “We hired Audrey as our wedding photographer and I cannot say enough good things. Audrey was so professional every step of the way, and her experience was invaluable to making sure we got the best pictures on our wedding day! We met a few times beforehand and planned out the locations, family portraits, etc. Of course, on the day of our wedding, it rained all day and we had to completely change course as most of our shooting locations were going to be outside! Our indoor photos ended up absolutely gorgeous and I was so thankful that Audrey was able to change course without issue. I would wholeheartedly hire Audrey again for any event!”

  • Love from Isabella & Jeremy

    “Audrey did our engagement and wedding photos and both times she blew it out of the park. She cared about our vision for our photos and made it happen. She was so patient with our large bridal party and helped keep everything moving along with our timeline too! I couldn’t imagine working with anyone else. It was so lovely working with Audrey and anyone else who gets to work with her will be totally blown away like we were!”

  • Love From Dolly

    “My husband and I loved working with Audrey for our wedding photos. She did an amazing job capturing so many beautiful and intimate moments throughout the day. She was very professional and provided us with photos that we will always cherish. We wish we still lived in the same city because we would hire Audrey to do family photos in a heartbeat!”

  • Love From Zuri

    “I've worked with Audrey over the years for professional headshots. However the engagement shoot she did for my fiancé & I blew everything out of the park! Audrey is so calming & her energy puts you at ease immediately. My fiancé was nervous all day but the way Audrey poses & directs makes you forget about being self conscious at all. Thank you infinitely Audrey for all your beautiful work!”

  • Love from Lisa & Greg

    “Audrey was so easy to work with and her work is absolutely gorgeous! She made wedding planning feel like a breeze, guided me through all the important photo moments of the day, and executed it all flawlessly! The wedding day flowed so smoothly. We felt so well cared-for and I don't think there were any missed moments. She also hired the perfect second shooter and directed them to assist her to execute the day. Besides the day itself, her images are absolutely gorgeous! Wonderful minimalist editing, and beautiful, artistic angles shot throughout the day helped capture perfect, magazine-worthy photos. I love them so much! I've had family and friends compliment the album and ask about my photographer. I can tell she takes so much pride and in her work to deliver the highest quality product. Thank you Audrey!”

  • Love From Lauren

    “I’ve worked with Audrey on numerous occasions. She is professional, kind and easy to work with. Her photos are amazing and come back in a timely manner. The retouching is clean and wonderful. I cannot recommend her enough! From wedding photos to headshots to boudoir photos, she is the best!”

  • Love From Alejandra Davis

    “She shot my wedding and l love every single picture. She’s amazing at her job and I would recommend her to everyone! She’s professional and makes you feel so natural while posing.”

  • Love from Melissa B

    “Audrey is absolutely amazing to work with from day one to the final product! She was exactly what I was looking for and more. From her professionalism to her timely response to her fantastic coaching, photography & editing skills, she was truly incredible!

  • Love from Taylor C

    “Audrey's work is stunning! She helped me create a beautiful album for my husband for a wedding day gift. The planning process of the whole thing was incredible because the photos were a surprise gift. She accounted for all of the details that go into that and she made the whole experience so comfortable. If you're nervous to have your photos taken, don't be because you're in great hands with Audrey. She pays close attention to the fine details during and after the shoot to make sure the photos are what you expected. Her relaxed attitude and artsy touch will give you a great experience! She's so professional and thoughtfully plans the shoot to accommodate what you're looking for.”
