I cannot wait to capture your story.
Now that you're planning your big day, "wedding photographer" is probably high on your list (and probably why you ended up here in the first place). But let me tell you why this decision should be so much more than a crossed off item in your Wedding Planner.
A wedding photographer should not only be in charge of capturing the images you'll show your grandkids one day - but also your biggest cheerleader from your engagement session to your big day to designing the album you'll cherish forever.
You don't have to figure this all out on your own. You deserve a photographer that will help you make the most of this incredible day: from timeline guidance to make sure you don't miss a single important shot to vendor recommendations so you have the best of the best helping to create the day of your dreams. And of course - someone who helps you get those dreamy images into your hands and not just on a hard drive somewhere.
Pop the bubbly -
You’re engaged!!!

I cannot say enough great things about Kelsey. She has been so sweet and so incredibly easy to work with.
I'm Kelsey. I love cold brew coffee, stroller walks with my tiny tot, and binge watching early 2000s teen dramas (lookin' at you, Veronica Mars). And most importantly? I love telling stories. Specifically, love stories. I am passionate about documenting my clients love from start to finish, and giving them a way to pass their story down for generations.
You love to laugh too loud
Your family is super important to you
You are over the moon excited to marry your best friend
Printed photos bring you joy
Are you ready to get your dream wedding photos?
this is where I come in
Your engagement session is such an important part of your experience. I truly believe it is crucial to getting so many great bride and groom photos on your wedding day! Your engagement session gives us a chance to spend time together so we can get to know each other. Because you’ll be familiar with how I operate, we will be able to move quicker through your portraits while getting you great variety, and allowing you to spend more time with each other.
there's more
I cannot wait to give you a guide to help with planning everything from your engagement session to a controlled exit to really get the most out of your photos. This guide gives you tons of tips and tricks to take the guesswork out of planning a beautiful, photo friendly wedding day. I hope this helps make your wedding planning fun!!
but wait, there's more!
And to compliment the guide, there’s style and select! Style and Select is great for engagement sessions because you can actually SEE the outfits you're wanting to try together. A guide to help you look your best. A tool to help you see your outfits together before you buy them. They go hand in hand.
more of the good stuff
I love to build custom wedding timelines for my clients based on ceremony time, the sunset on a wedding day, and whether or not there will be a first look. These things change for each couple, and a cookie cutter timeline just won’t do.
man, this stuff is good
I love to get you your photos as soon as possible, and that is where your online gallery comes in. You can download print resolution photos, save favorites, email them and share your links with loved ones. While I love printed images, I know that digital copies are so important! Now that doesn't mean that downloading them is their last stop…
but that's not all
The story of your day, printed and bound for you to enjoy now, and to pass on for generations to come. The story of your day from beginning to end, with details, portraits, family photos and so many moments unique to your day. I think every wedding needs to be printed, and I am so excited for you to have this heirloom.
take it from the top
Once I’ve delivered your completed wedding gallery, we start the album design process! I design an album and then send it to you for two rounds of feedback and changes, choosing your cover options and sending it off to be printed and bound! I want you to have a wedding album you can be proud of!
Because I love printed photos so much (my house is full of them!), this is one of my favorite parts of our process. It makes me so happy to end each wedding experience with a breathtaking, heirloom wedding album full of gorgeous photos from your day. The album tells the story of your wedding day, and my hope is that you’ll be able to share that with your future family for generations to come.
Let's create something beautiful
