Clary Pfeiffer Photography + 312FILMS | Chicago Wedding Photographer


Clary Pfeiffer is a wedding photographer who shoots a film-and-digital hybrid, editorial-leaning style, often working alongside her husband Travis. She’s based near St. Louis but has shot enough Chicago weddings, including three we’ve filmed alongside her, to know the city well. Her work was featured in Style Me Pretty’s coverage of a 1920s-inspired wedding at the Chicago Botanic Garden, and she holds a 4.9-star rating on both WeddingWire (10 reviews) and The Knot (17 reviews).

Kristina & Lucian at the Chicago Symphony Orchestra

A summer wedding that spanned some of Chicago’s most iconic landmarks: morning prep at the Chicago Athletic Association, an Assumption Catholic Church ceremony, portraits in the Art Institute gardens, and a reception in the CSO’s Grainger Ballroom that closed with a 10:15 PM fireworks display over the skyline.

Jennifer & Josh at the Chicago Botanic Garden

A 140-guest Jewish wedding on the Rose Terrace, five years in the making. Ten seconds of silence before “Moon River” played as Jennifer appeared, followed by a full ketubah signing, circling ceremony, and the breaking of the glass, then a Hora that filled the Pavilion until late-night grilled cheese closed out the night.
