Images and Thoughts from the Andrew Collings Photography Team
Hi and thanks for stopping by!
My studio is located in Chicago's Loop on Lake Street between Wabash and Michigan. A map of my location is here.
70 East Lake Street
Suite 230
Chicago IL 60601312-880-7076
I've been a Chicago-based portrait and wedding photographer for over 15 years. My photography career began in Rome, Italy, where I started doing assignments in high school for local papers. I'm a graduate of Northwestern University with a degree in Sociology and a self-taught photographer though I've assisted and learned from many photographers during and after my school years.
My wedding and portrait photography has been published in The Chicago Tribune, The New York Times, TimeOut Chicago, Shutterbug Magazine, The Knot and Chicago Social Brides among others and I am a WPJA award winner.
My portrait photography is natural and simple. I make use of natural light as well as sophisticated studio lighting. The goal is always to make you look your best and to convey your look and ideas in a fresh and engaging way.
My wedding photography is photojournalistic and easy on the day and on the eyes. My customers can choose to have me and my team photograph the wedding, or choose to have one of my personally-trained Associate Photographers.

Riley - Your work is wonderful. I think this one is my favorite, so far. What a cute couple…the bride (on the stairs) is GORGEOUS!The last picture in this set should win you a prize or something. Did you create that glimmer effect and light in the background? It looks like they are walking into heaven together or something. BEAUTIFUL ANDREW!
Andrew Collings - Thanks for your great compliment, Riley! Ali and Matt are a very cute couple and they had the best wedding. The light in the background is a flash and the “sparkles” on the sides are part of the cool hotel wall. I’m glad it worked out as well as it did!
