Natural Light Photography Based in Historic Geneva, Illinois
Hello!
Thanks for taking the time to learn a bit about me!
I specialize in family, newborn, children, HS seniors and maternity photography but I also love photographing events! I’ve photographed everything from birthdays, baby and wedding showers, grand openings, ribbon cuttings and gender reveals.
I have been blessed with an amazing family who fill my life with much love and laughter! We have lived in Geneva, Illinois, for over 35 years and enjoy all that it has to offer….the Fox River, wonderful forest preserves, the bike path, the quaint downtown restaurants and shops, festivals and so much more.

Cherish Every Moment
Kind Words
I’m honored to photograph so many wonderful families and milestones. Here’s what a few kind clients have shared about their experience.
Mike, Terri & Francesca
"Kristi McCarty Photography provided beautiful pictures of our family that we will treasure forever!! Kristi is a professional that went above and beyond our expectations. Before our session, Kristi discussed her vision of what would make memorable pictures. This enabled us to prepare for a successful photo shoot."
Randy & Family
"My experience with Kristi taking family pictures was incredible. From the get go, I saw how knowledgable, experience, and flexible Kristi is. With a large family, scheduling a late summer photo shoot that fit everyone's schedule was no easy feat and Kristi's flexibility made a daunting task so much easier."
A.J., Anne & Jimmy
"Our days of using a photography studio were over after Kristi photographer our son as an infant. Her photographs are so genius and natural. She always captures the uniqueness of the moment. Kristi asked us questions about our son's likes and dislikes. Over and years, she has incorporated his favorite stuffed animal and toys in her photographs."
Mike, Lina, Luke & Emma
"We booked our very first family photo session with Kristi in December. From the moment we scheduled the session, she was very involved in helping us figure out a location that suited our vision and in picking out outfits that would make our family photo stand out!"
