Ivy Bowler
OWNER/PHOTOGRAPHER
Hello! Welcome to Ivy Bowler Photography--I'm Ivy and I love working with adventurous, fun-loving couples! My number one goal is to create a collection of memories that beautifully and authentically captures the joy and individuality of your wedding day so that you have something to look back on fondly for decades to come. My style is best described as earthy, true-to-life-color, timeless, and focused on documenting all the details and authentic moments throughout your big day.
What makes me the right person for you? I have always been told I bring a sense of calm to the room, and that's what I'd like to do for you on your wedding day, a day that can often be stressful and filled with unknowns. I am a creator, storyteller, and friend who can take your vision for the day and help make it happen without you having to worry about whether or not every important moment is being recorded. I will bring the energy but work to ease any fears you have about being photographed and help you embrace being in the moment and enjoying your day to the fullest.
I offer both wedding and elopement services at a number of price points in Chicago and beyond. (I love to travel!)
Thank you for taking the time to get to know me a little--I'd love to hear from you and learn more about your event! Please reach out and I'll be in touch promptly.

Ivy did our engagement and wedding photos. She listened to our vision for each event and worked with us to create a fun adventure and great shots. Even when working with less than optimal conditions, she was professional and enjoyable to work with. We couldn't recommend her enough
