About

I fell in love with wedding photography the very first time I covered a wedding. There is nothing better as a photographer than photographing happy people, precious moments and beautiful details.

With a degree in photography from New York University, I take my background in photojournalism and use it as the basis for every wedding. I strive to record every moment, be it overt or subtle, that occurs throughout the day. I am always looking for beautiful lighting or a scenic backdrop in which to create a portrait of the new bride and groom. From the first photo to the last, I am dedicated to making your wedding day as enjoyable as possible and to creating memories that you will cherish forever.

I live and work in Manhattan with my puppy, Lucy.

Unbelievable Photographer!!!

Kelly being family aside, she is an absolutely phenomenal photographer!! Her vision is so incredible, her ability to see the photo as she it setting it up is so impressive. She is incredibly responsive, answering any and all questions we had throughout the process. Throughout the entire day she was constantly on the move, I was not worried for a single second that there was anything she missed. She was so efficient getting through the portraits while also making sure we did not feel rushed. We were not picky, we just wanted as many photos as possible and letting her kind of have free reign of when and where we took photos was the best decision I could have made because she was able to do what she does best and our photos turned out AMAZING because of it. Highly recommend!!

There are no words to begin to describe how amazing Kelly was throughout our wedding day, and in the work we have seen from her since. She has an incredible eye and offers a perfect blend of photojournalism, fine art, and portraiture style photography. She couldn't have been any sweeter dealing with our large bridal party and families, and knew when to be assertive to get unbelievable shots. The teaser photos we've seen from our 7/31 wedding are incredible - better than I could have ever imagined or hoped for. Friends keep saying they look like they came out of a bridal magazine! I couldn't recommend Kelly more - if you have her as your photographer, you are in fantastic hands.

Blown away!

We worked with Kelly for both engagement photos and wedding-day photos at our wedding in Connecticut. She was so amazing to work with. My husband and I were definitely a little awkward/stiff going into the photos and weren't sure how we'd do getting some of the more candid/live shots. Kelly was INCREDIBLE at making us feel comfortable and coaching/cheering us on through the entire process. She provided just the right amount of direction to let us be ourselves but ensure the photos turned out amazing. When we did group family shots, my whole family commented on her chill demeanor while still being able to get us in formation and get everyone looking their best. Throughout the day, she captured our happiest moments and scoped out the best spots. I was completely blown away by how stunning the photographs turned out. They exceeded my highest expectations. I would highly recommend Kelly to anyone!
