    Lisa Kay Creative Photography - Amazing Experiences

    Where do I even begin? We first started working with Lisa back in the summer of 2020. We reached out to Lisa regarding engagement photos after I came across her Instagram page (I was drawn to her work). From the very start Lisa was understanding, responsive, and throughout the actual engagement photoshoot made us feel comfortable and at ease. The photos turned out amazing (even though it was 96 degrees the day of the shoot). We had such a great experience with Lisa that I reached out again to see if she could take updated professional photos as I was due for a new headshot. Similar to the engagement photos, I cannot stress enough how fun the process was. I use the photos frequently for work and networking sites, they are a huge hit and I always get a compliment or two. Lastly, we recently worked with Lisa again for our wedding. Lisa and her team were phenomenal. Overall, the day was a little hectic due to the weather and having to adjust the plan, but she kept us track and made sure we were able to get all of the photos taken even on an accelerated timeline. I would highly recommend Lisa to anyone looking for a wedding photographer or photographer for business branding/head shots!

    10 out of 10 for Lisa Kay

    My husband and I planed our wedding for March 2020. Needless to say we had to reschedule several times and ended up having a small wedding and a large reception a year later. I bring this up to say Lisa could not have been more accommodating, helpful and supportive. The photos from both of our weddings captured our personalities as well as our venues perfectly. Lisa is fun to work with, extremely professional and a skilled photographer and I would recommend her to anyone!

    Best photographer possible

    Lisa was amazing. She captured our beautiful day perfectly. She executed some of our crazy ideas flawlessly. She had great suggestions for locations.

    I also need to mention that she went above an beyond in the height of the pandemic to accommodate us in our tiny civil ceremony as well. We feel so blessed that came through and captured our most beautiful moments and stuck with us all this time.

    Amazing Amazing Amazing!

    Due to Covid, we had to change our wedding plans quickly in 2020. After canceling our destination wedding we had planned, we reached out to Lisa to reschedule our wedding in Chicago in September '20. She was quick to reply and from out first phone call I could tell she would be perfect to help capture our wedding. From the start Lisa was able to provide recommendations of where to take photos around the city and was extremely flexible with us which was great after having to change all of our previous plans and start from scratch! When we met Lisa the morning of our wedding, she made us feel comfortable from the start and my husband and I both had so much fun walk around downtown with her! All our photos turned out perfectly and Lisa turned them around super quickly so we could make the big announcement to all of our friends and family. I would 100% recommend Lisa and I hope to be able to work with her again in the future. Thank you, Lisa!!

    A dream to capture a Chicago courthouse wedding!

    Lisa shot our courthouse wedding (pre-pandemic) and was an absolute JOY to work with. She knew the ins and outs of courthouse weddings in Chicago and knew lots of nearby spots to take photos, including to hide from the February winter when needed. Lisa was a delight to work with! She had a lovely demeanor that can make even the most awkward people comfortable and relaxed in the photos. We loved all of the photos she took of us to help us capture our big day. We would recommend here to everyone!

    Incredible photos at very fair pricing

    Lisa did a spectacular job photographing our wedding and engagement photos! She was endlessly patient with us and made wonderful suggestions of shots. Our final photos are probably the best wedding photos that I’ve ever seen (although I am clearly biased) The lighting is perfect in every single photo in the kind of way that makes everyone’s skin look luminous and captures the twinkly joy in our eyes.

    I could not recommend Lisa enough. I can’t wait to hire her in the future for more family or anniversary photos!

    Fusion (Hindu/Mexican) Wedding Success!

    Lisa hands down is the best! She is patient, kind, a great listener and exactly what we needed for our wedding! We had a fusion wedding and she went beyond our expectations for the final pics. We used her services from beginning to end.. from the engagement photos to our wedding! We will be returning customers for sure..

    Hire Her Immediately!

    My husband and I can’t say enough good things about Lisa! We are a couple that normally takes the most awkward photos and had nothing but nerves around finding someone to capture our big day. From the very start Lisa put us at ease. She was beyond helpful with the planning process and really goes the extra mile to make your day special. Her work is incredible, she handles crazy family members effortlessly, and she captured so many moments we didn’t think to add to our “must have” list. We went with the 2 photographer package and we loved working with Kathy as well.

    Did I mention Lisa is just fun to have around? Don’t look any further – you found the photographer who won’t let you down. Can’t wait to find excuse to work with her again!

    Lisa Kay is a great photographer!

    I met Lisa when she did my best friends wedding a few year ago. When it was time for me to get married I knew Lisa was the best person for the job and she did not disappoint! She did our engagement and wedding photos and we were so happy with them all. She is responsive, creative and very orgainzied! We will be using Lisa in the future to remember other big moments in our life!

    Wonderful Experience with Lisa Kay Photography

    When we first reached out for wedding photographers, Lisa was the only photographer who asked to meet in person. After our first meeting, we knew she would be a perfect match for our needs. Lisa also made suggestions and asked helpful questions for us to narrow the "look" we wanted for our photos. She was warm, welcoming, and very open to listening to our ideas and needs. On the wedding day, she made everyone feel at ease and perfectly captured our day. The pictures were beautiful and truly captured our "vibe" and relationship. We would highly recommend Lisa to anyone who is in need of a wedding photographer!

    Lisa is amazing!

    I worked with Lisa on a VERY rainy Chicago day, and I have to say she was AMAZING! Despite the added pressure of changing all of the plans for the wedding photos, Lisa remained calm, and always had a smile on her face! Her work is just absolutely stunning, and she has the most zen aura surrounding her! She is seriously talented, professional, and friendly. I would recommend her a million times over!

    Rockstar!!!

    Lisa helped us through our wedding mishap. I am a Barber and my hair person never showed up so I had to do my own hair and my bridesmaids hair. Lisa was so supportive and calming on my energy, through everything. She suggested to arrange timelines in a different manner which helped out tremendously. She is quick to solve issues and is a calming energy when you need it, especially during a difficult time. She is an angel and takes amazing photos that really captures everyone's spirit. She is pure love and light and will capture yours if you are lucky enough to get her!

    Perfect photographer!

    Lisa is amazing! From the first time we spoke over the phone, to meeting in person to go over our wedding day details, she was on top of everything! Even rain on our wedding day didn’t stop Lisa from capturing every beautiful moment. We are so thankful for her! My husband and I have both been in weddings with cheesy/fake poses, and loved how natural and candid our photos turned out. Thank you Lisa!!!

    Everything you’d hope for

    Lisa is a true artist and professional! Her calming nature makes for the best vendor you will hire for your big day! We were not only lucky to have her for our engagement shoot, but for our wedding too! Our photos highlight the memories or our special day, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the variety. I would recommend Lisa to anybody! Aside from being a true artist she is a completely organized sweetheart!

    Incredible photographer and person!

    I spent a lot of time searching for photographers and am so incredibly glad I found Lisa. Lisa clearly has a ton of experience in photography and weddings because she managed our planning and wedding day like a breeze. She has a very calming aura and a way of coordinating the wedding day that drives success in getting people in positions and on time, but doesn’t cause a frenzy or any stress. There was only one stressful moment of our day when I showed up for the first look and my groom wasn’t ready. Lisa immediately reassured me in a way that made me completely forget about everything else and just focus on seeing my future husband for the first time that day. Lisa guided us through the planning process and I felt so confident in her that I let her drive most of the shots. And this is all the logistics, I haven’t even gotten to the pictures yet! Our pictures are absolutely gorgeous, I can’t find a single one that wasn’t framed super well, edited well (but not too much), and perfectly captures our day. Lisa captured so many amazing moments of our wedding and was incredibly thorough with her shots. She blended into our wedding very well and got some truly great candids that I’m so grateful for. At the end of the night we even asked her for an extra hour, which I’m sure messed up her night, but she said yes and gave that extra hour her all! We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer!

    Best Photographer in Chicago! :)

    Lisa was our wedding photographer for our winter wedding and she was absolutely amazing! She was highly prepared for our wedding, which made the hectic day so smooth! Lisa was kind and outgoing, which added to the fun of our day! And 3 months later I am still getting compliments of our beautiful wedding pictures. I have even been told that our weeding photos are the best some of our family has ever seen! Lisa knows how to create beautiful moments with even the most simple backdrops. I highly recommend Lisa for anyone's wedding, you will not be disappointed!

    AMAZING! Lisa is the best

    Lisa was incredible! She really took the time to get to know us by meeting a couple times before hand and we immediately knew she was the one to go with and we couldn't have been happier. The pictures turned out better than we could've imagined. She has a great eye for different shots and views and unlike other photographers that just give you some of the highlights they thought were best, she gave everything. We loved Lisa! She did an amazing job and we're so happy we went with her.

    Personable and Professional!

    Lisa Kay photographed our daughter's wedding at Carnivale in Chicago in August 2018. She was professional, personable, and an absolute joy. The pictures were beautiful and highlighted all the fun everyone said they had. She captured everyone being natural and candid during the ceremony and reception, and she chose a perfect location for off site photos that fulfilled the couple's vision for their pictures. She managed to capture many moments that we missed because of all the activity, and she blended into the wedding so seamlessly, we forgot she was there until we saw all the pictures that were taken.

    Amazing to work with!

    I was referred to Lisa by a family friend and I am so happy that we were connected! Lisa was phenomenal to work with and made the entire process very easy. Before the wedding we met at the venue to discuss the day-of schedule and scout shooting locations. Lisa also had excellent recommendations for locations to shoot pre-ceremony photos around the city. Throughout the process Lisa was prompt and professional. The day-of Lisa was a rockstar who kept everyone on schedule and kept everything stress-free. I loved working with Lisa--I highly recommend her!

    Talented, Professional and Caring

    Lisa is absolutely who you want to capture your life moments. She is warm, thoughtful and professional-in one word AWESOME! Lisa easily becomes an essential part of your special occasion. Our wedding cane together very quickly and she kept us sane and organized. From our first email exchange, phone call and meeting I knew I was in great hands. I’m so grateful that she was the one to capture of special day and she kept me calm the day of. The photo album we received is also telling of her extreme talent and beautiful work.

    We are now expecting our first little one and will definitely be calling Lisa to document more of our life changing experiences.

    Best Experience!

    I can't overstate how much I enjoyed working with Lisa. We had an untraditional, very small wedding (20 people) so I initially didn't even think we needed a photographer. But my now husband found Lisa and convinced me otherwise, and I am so happy that he did. We were able to meet with her in person before the wedding and discuss our schedule, needs, style, etc. She was completely receptive to our preferences and also made some spot-on suggestions of things we hadn't thought about. At the wedding itself, she knew exactly what to do and when to do it so I really didn't have to think about anything! She was able to get all the relevant pictures without interfering in any way.
    And now for the best part - THE PICTURES! They were stunning! She captured the laidback vibe of the wedding PERFECTLY. She also made accessing the photos after the wedding super easy. Throughout the entire process, she was friendly, professional and responsive. I highly recommend working with Lisa!

    Lisa was *amazing*. So easy to work with an quick to respond to my emails. We live in Los Angeles, she's in Chicago, and we did a destination wedding in the middle of nowhere Wisconsin, and everything was coordinated perfectly despite all of that. She was loads of fun and super quick to get our photos back to us. Also, we shot in a very poorly lit location (House on the Rock) and even though it was clearly going to be difficult to get the proper lighting, she did it! Would highly recommend.

    Lisa was fantastic throughout our whole wedding process. She was so friendly from our initial phone call, providing lots of great ideas and suggestions. She was very responsive to and prompt in answering all of our questions. The day of the wedding she was accommodating and flexible, while also making sure to get in all of our most important pictures that we wanted. She made the evening much less stressful and we can't wait to see how the pictures turn out!

    In a word: amazing! We were fortunate enough to connect with Lisa while looking for photographers to take some pictures of us while honeymooning in Paris. Not only was Lisa super friendly and communicative leading up to the photoshoot, but she was extremely kind and flexible when I had a severe allergic reaction to something a few days before our scheduled shoot. She was gracious enough to reschedule for what was I'm sure a less convenient time and place a few days later. The photoshoot itself was a blast! Lisa knows what she's doing and knows how to direct you during the shoot to get fabulous photos. Her husband was also there and we had so much fun with them both we ended up getting dinner afterward. Finally and most importantly, when the pictures came in just a few days later, we almost fell over when we saw them... they were simply gorgeous and more than we could have imagined or hoped for. I wish we lived in Chicago so that we could have Lisa photograph all of our major family milestones. So anyone that does live nearby, take advantage of the true talent and delight that Lisa is!

    I'm so happy we picked Lisa to be our photographer. She was super organized and talented and not to mention a pleasure to be around. We thought we would be lucky to get a few good photos back considering we had 17 mile per hour winds on our wedding day. We were pleasantly surprised at how good they came out. Our photos were fantastic!!

    I cannot say enough good things about Lisa! She went ABOVE and BEYOND to make our wedding day so special. She helped us with brainstorming photo ideas and even suggested what we eventually chose as our wedding location! It was obvious that she truly cared from the start. Our wedding sort of evolved from the time we initially hired her and she was so flexible and rolled with all the changes to the plan with no problem! She always responded in a timely manner, did exactly what she said she would, and we had a little fun along the way!

    We couldn't be happier with the end product either. She truly captured the essence of our wedding day and the shots are so creative and beautiful and fun. Everyone we show our photos to has the same comment: "Your photographer is amazing!" I can't narrow it down to my favorites and wouldn't get rid of any of them. And she continues to blow me away! She has since helped us put together several different wedding books for family members (and ourselves) and each one is more beautiful than the last!

    Hire this woman! You won't regret it.

    THANK YOU LISA!!!

    We were so incredibly lucky to have Lisa be a part of our special day. She was extremely professional and we are more than pleased with our photos. She was also super responsive and was so accommodating during all aspects of our wedding. Cannot recommend her enough!

    Lisa was incredible. Not only did she take amazing photos that we will treasure forever, but she helped us prepare for our big day by telling us exactly what to expect and giving us great advice before, during and after. She's the best.

    Wow! Lisa is a mastermind behind the lens! Our wedding was on a rainy day in October, but that didn't dampen the spectacular photos she was able to capture. Lisa is extremely easy to work with, calming and reassuring and creative beyond belief! We highly recommend Lisa to anyone looking to turn their memories of their special day into vivid photographic remembrances!

    I had the pleasure of having Lisa photograph our engagement pictures and also our elopement. I found an amazing deal she had at the time on Groupon and I don't know about you, but sometimes I'm a bit skeptical of some those deals so I called and talked to her first before the purchase and she totally eased my mind. The actual day of our photo shoot we were in downtown Chicago on a Saturday morning and of all things there was a HUGE protest starting up. Many of the areas and landmarks that she had in mind were off limits because of this, but she improvised and made some amazing photos! We were so happy with the end results that it was no way we couldn't have her to shoot our big day.

    LIsa was absolutely everything we were looking for in terms of a wedding photographer! We were able to get her on a very short notice because she was super quick about responding and accommodating us. We actually met her at City Hall and she was able to capture our short ceremony and amazing pictures around the city afterwards. We went over specific locations and poses before we met her and I was so happy we got them all! Definitely recommend her!

    Lisa worked beautifully to capture our wedding with both natural, candid moments, and group photos that really pulled everyone together. She was a joy to work with; very personable and friendly. I've often heard that one of the most exhausting parts of the day is just getting through the photos, but it felt seamless with her. She felt like not just a photographer, but also a friend who was instrumental in making our big day a beautiful and joyous event.

    Lisa took the time to get to know what we wanted in our photography experience in Chicago. She offered her ideas based on her experience as a photographer and listened to our ideas as well. The fact that she was clearly having fun helped us relax and get the most out of our time together. Lisa started the day as our photographer and ended the day as a friend. The pictures are wonderful and so was our experience.

She made our day even more special by listening to what we wanted and being so open to suggestions and options. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wanted to have a professional take pictures of a special event! Thank you, Lisa!!

    Lisa was amazing to work with! We were procrastinators who took forever to book a photographer - we wanted someone who understood our vision, was within our budget and was available for our non-traditional wedding when we happened upon Lisa's site, and we are so glad we took a chance. We live five hours away from Chicago and were booking for a destination summer camp wedding and Lisa was great and quick to answer any questions, send more galleries and throw out ideas.

    The day of the wedding Lisa (and her husband Donnie) jumped right in and were great to work with and went above and beyond to help us (like helping my husband get dressed!). They were flexible, excited to be there and fun to work with. We had a lot of moving parts and a lot of activities to capture and Lisa executed perfectly. They even stayed late when we ran behind schedule to get all the shots we wanted. The sneak peek was up the next day and we had an online gallery to look through all the photos in two weeks and they are AMAZING. Seriously better than I ever imagined.

    If you are looking for a fun, professional, affordable, and talented photographer in Chicago or West Michigan, hire Lisa.

    What an amazing person.

    working with Lisa was one of the easiest and best choices of our wedding. Her bubbly passion for all things love and wedding shines through from the first time you meet her, and extends through the chaos of the big day. Lisa took the time to get to know us before the wedding, which made the actual day a breeze. She won over our families and got amazing photos of everyone laughing and happy, not just frozen in place.

    From our first meeting Lisa was prepared with a list of detailed questions about what the wedding would look like. We were still 4 months out and her list got us thinking and helped us clarify what we wanted our wedding to look like. Later on she helped us put together a day of itinerary, again and invaluable resource for planning.

    If Lisa's available go with her, you won't be disappointing. She's a lovely person and a great photographer!

    Lisa captured our big day in September. Spending almost 3 hours with us and she took almost 500 photos. I really tried my best to find even one photo I don't like and it was impossible! She makes you feel super comfortable and I guess this is her TRICK to get the best out of you! :) She gives you a usb of all the photos so you can print as many as you want. I don't know how I can say enough about her and her amazing photos. All I can say about her is that she is the best!

    Lisa was so nice and very accommodating. My mother-in-law saw her taking pictures for a couple's ceremony downtown and inquired about her services for us explaining our fairly non-existent budget (we were almost at the point of not having a photographer at all and were asking friends to provide the service). Lisa told her she would be more than willing to work with any budget and just wanted her couples to have a great photography experience. When we contacted Lisa, she was quick to respond (her communication throughout was quick), asked us what we were thinking budget-wise, and not wanting to offend her with too much of a low-ball rate, she then offered her package which was extremely reasonable. We signed a contract with her, kept in contact over email, and spoke with her over the phone a few days before the wedding to arrange meeting times and locations and expectations. Lisa's day-of services were professional and friendly. Her personality is so nice, and she just kind of went with the flow of things, especially since we didn't really have a photography itinerary in mind. We got some fabulous pictures outdoors before the ceremony, she got all the details during the ceremony, and took some great reception pictures. One of our wedding party attendees liked her so much she booked her for her wedding in October :). Her contract included all rights to the pictures with a USB drive she sent shortly after the wedding. She even sent us a cute metal ornament for Christmas. Her turnover was very fast posting the link to the images online about 2 weeks after the wedding. We highly recommend Lisa.

    Lisa photographed our wedding, and did an amazing job. We highly recommend her for any photography needs. In the planning stages, she was easy to work with, detail oriented, and readily available. On the actual event day, she was calming, friendly, and professional. Many of our guests commented on how great she was during the event. We received our finished photos within a very reasonable time, and they were fantastic (check out her website for examples). She is professional, but approachable, which is a great combination for this line of work.

    So glad we found Lisa Kay

    We were in a realy jam because our first photographer dropped out last minute. With less than a week to find someone, Lisa Kay was recommended to us. We are so glad we found her. It could have been a hectic and somewhat stressful event, but Lisa Kay was responsive, professional, calming and she took beautiful pictures of our wedding.
