Chicago photographer Audrey Woulard

Hello!!

I’m Audrey Woulard, and my portrait studio is called Kids And the City ( KATC ). Thanks for visiting my website! I have been a full time professional photographer for 20 years. I am a wife, and mother to four handsome boys! I am based out of Chicago IL, and I specialize in the fashion forward high school senior, or the teenager who just wants to be different. I also photograph the family who doesn’t want a plain, or traditional portrait. Although, I photograph high school seniors in Chicago, I travel to all the surrounding Chicagoland suburbs such as Naperville, Plainfield, Willowbrook, Highland Park, Winnetka, Northbrook, and more.

I really like creating a unique experience and more importantly, unique images. I am sure many photographers say this, but I feel my pictures do not look like any other photographers work. They tend to stand out. Photography is all about light. Because of selfies, many of the teens today understand that. I look at light in a way many photographers do not. This is why my images look different and I want my clients to have images that look different than their friends. I tailor each of my photo sessions to my clients. This is why I have such a high return client base!

I can creatively showcase your hobbies, and sports. I receive an LOT of referrals, and I will tailor it where it is your OWN look and experience.
