As far back as I can remember, I always had an "interest" in photography, but interest alone wasn't motivating enough to make me pursue it as a career. Then, on July 8, 2004, something amazing happened. Seven pounds of inspiration was handed to me in the form of my first born.
I immediately went out and bought a "pro-sumer" camera. Suddenly all that inspiration turned into obsession. I found myself constantly snapping away trying to document every second of my daughters growth. I didn't want to miss a second.
I realized quickly that I had a natural talent for composition and lighting. And so was born Corlis Gray Photography. That love for capturing those beautiful moments of my baby girl matured into a strong desire to share my gift with soon to be wed couples.
I would be honored to be YOUR wedding photographer. So head over to the contact page and drop me a line. :D
I currently reside in Naperville, il. I am extremely blessed for my passion and career to be one in the same.

Ben is a VERY talented pianist in Chicago. Abigail studies monkeys in Africa. When I put it that way you might assume these two couldn’t be more different, but you’d be wrong. Being that Ben is a musician, and his name isn’t P-Diddy or John Mayer, he isn’t exactly making billions. Abigail is, what I...
Here is the classic story of two highschool sweethearts dating for 10 years then finally taking the plunge. Ok, so maybe that’s not so classic, but it’s a nice story anyways. I could tell it was worth the wait by the way I kept catching these to gazing at each other like it...
