Photographer- wedding and reception
Kelly is simply amazing. The GENUINE care and pride that she takes in her work is incredulous at times. We were worried about the idea of a "stranger" invading the personal space of our wedding and reception; but because of the time that Kelly invests ahead of time in getting to know the couple - and what's important to them- it felt like a friend taking pictures by the time the event took place.

As a same sex couple, we had another layer of concern as we looked into photographers. Kelly, from the moment we met at Starbucks, treated us as a crazy-in-love couple excited about creating a magical day. She immediately joined our mission and gave us the gift of capturing the magic and joy of our special day. We are incredibly grateful for her and have already recommended her to anyone who will listen. She is a gift.

Best day ever
We hired Kelly to photograph our Nov. 3 wedding in Alexandria, VA and we couldn't be happier with that decision. From our very first meeting Kelly was kind, professional, and ORGANIZED. Exactly what a bride who has no idea how to plan a wedding needs. Kelly used to be a wedding coordinator with a hotel, and it shows. She came to our first meeting with sample timelines, sample albums, questionnaires, and most importantly, she came with time to chat. You could tell she wanted to really get a sense of who we were as a couple, what kind of day we wanted to have, and how we saw photography fitting into that. Along the way she was incredibly responsive to emails, and even helped me brainstorm the best ideas and most cost effective means of transportation on the day of, which was totally not her job.

One of the things I most appreciated about Kelly is that she didn't try to oversell. Researching photography packages online you would think you need 3 photographers, 12 hours of coverage, 20 outfit changes, 5 locations, etc. Kelly said while we could always add more hours if we wanted to, she thought 7 hours was completely do-able. Quality over quantity, baby. She was totally right. I ultimately didn't need 2 hours of photographs of my girls and I sitting in our pajamas while we got our hair done, and lord knows our guests didn't need pictures from hour 5 of our open bar. Looking at our photos now she captured every single part of our day. The getting ready, first look, ceremony, and most definitely the dancing.
While everything I have mentioned so far are huge perks of having Kelly as your photographer, hands down the best part are the photos. Looking at the pictures she took they so perfectly capture everything we were feeling inwardly, between each other, and with our guests. My husband and I didn't hire a videographer and with Kelly it turns out we definitely didn't need one. Looking at the pictures Kelly took I relive our wedding day over and over again. I'm not sure I stopped laughing or dancing the entire day and Kelly got it all. She captured so many moments of my husband sneaking glances at me, or me at him, and you can just see the love and happiness pouring out of us. Those are the photos I cherish the most. While the portraits she took are beautiful, her strength is definitely in documenting the day and all the candid and private moments that occur. Those candid photos are the ones that are the backgrounds on our phones, that we hung on our walls, and that we randomly text each other to relive that amazing day.
You will not go wrong with hiring Kelly. She was a breeze to work with, her product is beautiful, and she is such a sweet and calm presence to have on your team on a day with so many nerves and emotions. Thank you Kelly for the part you played in helping to make our wedding day the best day of our lives, and for giving us the gift of being able to relive it over and over again through your photos.

Talented, Experienced, Professional!
Working with Kelly was fantastic! She has a wonderful personality, put in the time to get to know us as a couple, and was very responsive. She is super organized, knew what we wanted ahead of time, and just blended in during our ceremony and reception. She was also flexible, working with us so that we were within our budget. We really wanted a photographer who would focus on capturing the candid moments and Kelly definitely did that. We are so happy with our pictures and had a lot of fun going through them, reliving the day, and seeing the moments we missed ourselves. Thanks Kelly!

Kelly is like a ray of sweet, caring, energetic sunshine that inspires all around her. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Kelly and her second shoot Rebecca! Both were kind, personable and professional. I love how Kelly takes the time to meet with each couple weeks before the wedding and gets to know them and the exact pictures they want. She wants to know what their wedding means to them personally so she can capture it the best for them on their wedding day. She takes time to outline when and where each photo will take place and how to ensure the couple is her top priority. Working with Kelly was a delight and I hope to have another opportunity to do it again.
