Kelsey is amazing!

Generally when I have something really good to say about someone I will start with the phrase “where do I start?” In this case it only makes sense to start when we first met Kelsey, however that was not when we ourselves were looking for a photographer. My husband and I were only dating at the time we met Kelsey and were at my best friend’s wedding. Kelsey for lack of a better way to put it was amazing. The way she captured such intimate and important moments is inspiring. We both commented after that night that she had an incredible attitude and clearly helped the entire wedding party and family to feel right at home! We were so impressed by her at that wedding that when we got engaged we knew immediately who we wanted to photograph our day. We ended up changing our original date around to fit a weekend that she had available, yes she is THAT good. It was one of the best decisions we made. She not only helps you to feel confident in front of the camera, but she makes it fun and memorable! Her excitement and passion for photography is irresistible and lights up every session! Kelsey was an incredible help to us and even took the time to write out a an hour by hour schedule for us to better be able to picture more accurately what the “day of” would look like. She is the perfect blend of helpful and hands-off. During our wedding day Kelsey had a second photographer, Emily, she was so much fun and full of life helping to add to all of the excitement of the day! After our family/wedding portraits and ceremony, Kelsey became a part of the background, capturing moments that we will now cherish forever. We cannot say enough good things about KJ Photography and what it has given to us. We are forever thankful for her talent, her insight, and for the way that she honestly cared for us.

Absolutely Wonderful

Kelsey James Photography was hands down the best choice we made for our wedding. Her photos are unbelievably beautiful, and she made us feel so comfortable and natural behind the camera. Kelsey made us feel cared for, was very professional, and she made it so we did not need to worry about a thing. She could not have captured our day any better, and I received photos back so fast. Highly highly recommend! :)

Kelsey and Jimmy were such a joy to work with! They went above and beyond our expectations! Kelsey created a wedding day timeline and stuck to it to ensure all the images we desired were captured on our big day! Our photos turned out absolutely sunning and were sent to us while we were still on our honeymoon! They will be treasured for years to come!

Jimmy and Kelsey were professional, personable, and perfectly focused. My husband and I were apprehensive about a full day of photos since we are both somewhat awkward in front of a camera. All of our fears were dispelled as soon as Jimmy and Kelsey walked in. We all, including our flower girl and ring bearer, were relaxed and we were able to fully enjoy the day! The photos they took are unique and personal to who we are and we can cherish them forever! Their response time for getting us our photos was INCREDIBLE! Jimmy and Kelsey are the best :)
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
