Kyle Szeto | About

Hey there, I'm Kyle

My wife Lindsay and I call Chicago home and we wouldn't have it any other way. When we're not in the city, you can likely find out exploring and hiking in the great outdoors and discovering the food scene wherever we are.

I believe that every couple deserve an intimate, meaningful, and authentic wedding experience because your wedding is the start of a new adventure with your best friend. An adventure that starts with opening yourself up and committing your life to one another. As a photographer, by creating space for intimacy and vulnerability, I empower couples to feel more connected with one another so that they can have a deeper and more intentional marriage.

I believe that vulnerability is paramount. With my best friends from college, nothing was held back from one another, and because of it our relationships were deepened and strengthened to a level that I had never experienced before. I carried over the same commitment to vulnerability into my relationship with my wife. This openness allowed us to become so much more intentional with one another. It allowed, and still allows, us to know and experience one another in an ever-evolving way. With vulnerability, there’s a level of intimacy and connection that you experience that’s unlike anything else. And to me, a photo that captures this connection is priceless.

Every wedding tells such a unique story and I would love nothing more than to see you both celebrating with yourselves, surrounded by your loved ones. Close your eyes. I want you to picture your wedding dress blowing in the wind while your love is reading their vows, tears rolling down their cheek. This is why I am here. To document all the moments that make you laugh, smile, and cry throughout your wedding, not only for you, but for future generations as well.

I’d love to hear from you, feel free to contact me. Let’s chat over donuts and lattes!

Frequently Asked Questions

What are your rates?

Wedding rates depend on location and availability. Average bookings for clients is $3200. Reach out via the Contact Page or at hello@kyleszeto.com for full pricing pages.

Do you photograph weddings with a second photographer?

It depends on a wedding to wedding basis. I would recommend having a second photographer when logistically it'd be impossible to have coverage in two places at once, when the guest list is 170+, or anytime you just want a different perspective of coverage. All of my second photographers are professionals that own their businesses and shoot with the same style as I do.

Do you travel for weddings/sessions?

Absolutely, I'll go anywhere around the world for your wedding/session! I love traveling and being able to experience everything a location has to offer.

We love your work, how do we book you?

You can reach out to me via my Contact page and tell me all about yourself and your wedding vision. I will reach out within 24 hours and we can set up a time to talk in person/video chat. During our chat, we will go over what your wedding vision and we can determine which wedding collection fits the best for you.

A signed contract and 50% non-refundable retainer fee for date reservation. The rest is due 1 month prior to the event date.

When will we receive our photos?

I can't wait for you to see your photos too! For engagements/couple sessions, I promise a 3 week turnaround and for weddings/elopements, I promise 6 weeks. At that time, your customized online gallery will be made available for you and all your friends and family to see.

What is the process of getting our album?

After your photos and gallery have been delivered, I would love your input on which photos to include in your album. Once the photos, cover material, album size are selected, I'll make the album design and send it over to you for approval before submitting the order to my designer. From there, it takes the designer around 4-6 weeks to create and get back to me.

What rights do we have with our photos?

While I retain the copyright of your photos, you have all printing rights to download, share, and print your photos for your personal usage. I am a big believer in printing photos and being able to hold them in your hands.
