I offer custom photography packages to creative, women-run brands looking to enhance their visual storytelling and online presence.

I learned my love for photography from my dad; that's him on the right, likely shooting that very portrait of me. An observer at heart, I take an editorial, documentary-style approach to photographing families - shooting those who value a different type of family photography. If you want a traditional portrait with everyone looking to camera, be sure to say so.
A Signature Session with me is casual, relaxed and fun, focused on capturing the heart and soul of your immediate family. Complete photo packages start at $975. Set against your favorite nature backdrop or in your own home, your shoot will produce a collection of authentic, candid photographs you'll be proud to hang on your walls and pass down to your children some day.
A perceptive observer with an editorial, documentary-style approach, I work to capture moments and interactions as they naturally unfold, giving gentle guidance as needed. Signature Sessions offer the gift of time. For you: time to exhale, enjoy your surroundings and connect with one another in your own way.
Whether it's the last days of your pregnancy or your newborn's delicate features, they'll be gone before you know it and deserve to be photographed. Your maternity shoot may be arranged as a Signature Session (from $975) or a Portrait Mini ($595), and is structured and priced exactly as such. Newborn shoots are Signature Sessions only.

Kelly's work is impressive! She's a mom of my daughter's friend, but this is no bias review. She's the real deal! She's amazing and very professional. My daughter and I experienced her ultimate talent in photography during our mini session earlier this year for my daughter's 10th birthday. I appreciate the quality of our photos, and we can't wait to have another session with her again next year.

Kelly is a fabulous photographer and instant friend. From the start, we were completely at ease with her as she quickly blended in and became an extension of our little family. She is like meeting your long-lost sister for a fun adventure, yet, she quickly gets to work and produces such professional, authentic, rare and real moments on camera. She has an eye to see beyond the surface and the obvious to capture something much deeper and hidden and precious on camera. This is what sets Kelly apart from a traditional, canned, posed and predictable shoot. Having Kelly photograph our family was exhilarating

Kelly is such a talent and I cannot recommend her enough. This was our family's first time taking professional photos, and she kept us at ease while still providing enough gentle direction to make us comfortable. As others comment, she is able to capture authentic and tender moments... and dealt with unexpected challenges (like an abnormally high tide and a toddler who didn't want to touch the sand) with grace.
When I received our images (a quick week later) I was blown away by Kelly's vision and her ability to incorporate the stunning landscape. She is a true professional, who was responsive

I can’t recommend Kelly enough! She’s professional but also made us feel like we’d known her forever when we met her for the first time for our mini family session. The photos came out better than I ever imagined and she was so quick and communicative with delivery and my litany of questions. I will cherish the photos she took of our family forever and am so grateful we booked her!

I am so happy to have found Kelly - she has just been the best to work with and given us the most beautiful family photos that we will treasure forever and ever! From our first communication, Kelly has been quick to respond, professional, extremely helpful, and I immediately felt I could trust her. And on picture day she put us all at ease and kept it relaxed, even with our 3 year old. Really could not be happier or recommend her any more!

We had a wonderful experience with Kelly. This was our first ever family session and it all went so well and felt so natural. She gave great directions that were easy to follow. Kelly brings nature and gorgeous light into the photos and the outcome is stunning! We are so happy that we finally did it and we highly recommend Kelly to anyone who appreciates art and wants more than "just" a family photo.

We loved our experience with Kelly, she was engaged, insightful and dedicated to helping us capture our family. Her relaxed approach during the session made us comfortable, and she gave us gentle directions while letting us play to document authentic family moments, no easy feat with a 1 year old. She layered all of this with an exceptional eye and artistic vision which left us with photos to treasure, and a new annual tradition for our family.
