    Timeless and Breathtaking photos!!

    Kelly and her team at Balsam and Blush Photography were recommended to us by our wedding planner and we could not have been more satisfied with our decision to work with her and her associates. There are so many photographers to choose from, but from the second we saw Kelly’s work, it was an absolute no-brainer. We had the pleasure of working with her associate Heather for our engagement shoot and again with Heather and Jenna for our wedding! From our engagement shoot, to our wedding day, every single image that was taken just blew us away. They made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We are so lucky to have the most timeless photos to cherish from such a special day. Kelly worked with our planner to make the wedding day timeline seem effortless and the day flowed together perfectly! We are so fortunate that we were able to work with such a talented and creative professional, and are already looking forward to working with Balsam and Blush again in the future.

    The BEST photographer!

    10/5 stars! I am absolutely floored by my experience with Kelly, she is a fairy godphotographer and was easily one of the best decisions I made for our wedding. I recommend her to any bride out there!

    My husband and I really wanted a photographer we connected with since we’d spend so much time together and we definitely found that in Kelly. She helped us feel confident and not awkward in front of the camera, and she treated us like friends not just clients. She was always quick to respond, and answered all of my questions throughout wedding planning (even questions that weren’t related to photography at all).

    The day of our wedding Kelly did an outstanding job keeping the timeline moving. Even my dad commented on how easy breezy family portraits were - which was something he dreaded. Even when we had to shift things around, Kelly helped assure me that nothing was getting missed.

    From the moment I found Balsam and Blush on Instagram I knew I had to book them for my wedding because the style was so fresh and timeless. Fast forward to our wedding and our photos came out even dreamier than I could’ve imagined. We have gotten so many compliments on the photos, including many people saying they look like they’re out of a magazine and I fully agree. Every photo is my favorite photo, so I know I couldn’t have asked for anyone better.

    Having pictures quickly was also important to me. So if that’s important to you too, know this! Kelly delivered a few photos the very next day so we had something to post, followed by a big sneak peek the same week. I then expected to wait a few months for the album since that’s what I’ve seen almost every other bride do, but she delivered our entire album while we were still on our honeymoon!

    Wedding Photographer

    Kelly was AMAZING! Start to finish she made it so easy for us throughout the entire process. We loved how easy she was to work with during our engagement shoot and wedding day! Her pictures were absolutely stunning as well and we loved every single one. Kelly was able to effortlessly capture our personalities and display them through her photos which was so incredible. On wedding day, Kelly was calm and made things so much less stressful! She was organized so we knew exactly what pictures needed to be taken. She also went above and beyond for us by traveling down to Cincinnati for both the engagement shoot and wedding weekend and not charging travel or lodging fees. My favorite part of the entire experience with Kelly was getting to know her and having her get to know us- this helped make her pictures so reflective of my husband and I’s relationship and truly allowed for it to be the best day.

    Best decision!

    Kelly is a wonderful photographer and such a joy to work with! We planned our COVID wedding from out-of-town (we live in Boston & wed in Canton) and Kelly worked with us every step of the way. She took the time to get to know us, making sure that our photos reflected who we were and what was important to us. She provided a shot list questionnaire ahead of time which helped us think through the “must have” shots beforehand. Kelly is just so delightful and her photos of our engagement and wedding will be cherished for years to come.

    Best photographer!!!

    Going with Balsam and Blush as our wedding photographer was easily one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning process. Kelly is professional, caring and not to mention her work is absolutely STUNNING! Kelly is very easy to get ahold of and is very prompt with all of her work. The engagement session is a wonderful opportunity to get to know Kelly and to get comfortable in front of the camera! The day of our wedding, Kelly (along with her husband Scott who was also amazing) did an excellent job keeping our crazy wedding party on schedule to make sure everything went smoothly. If you’re contemplating your decision, I am confident Balsam and Blush is the best photographer out there!

    Most Amazing Photographer

    Kelly is so professional and easy to work with. We had her do an engagement session and shoot our wedding photos. I am so happy we did the engagement session with her, she made us feel comfortable and it was good practice for the big day. Her photo quality is AMAZING, we printed off an 18x24 photo and it was perfect. With only an hour session for engagement we had SUCH a variety of photos to choose from and I loved all of them. The wedding was even better, we got more variety and the day was organized and seamless. Kelly caputred everything I wanted and even more. Trying to choose photos to hang in your house is difficult because her work is SO amazing. The photos captured make you really relive the day. Even in a pandemic Kelly made me feel special like a bride should and I would 100% recommend her! Her pricing was also very reasonable for the quality of photos. We also got the photos back in a short amount of time.

    Balsam and Blush Photography's reply:

    Jordyn thank you sooo much for this sweet review! I am so glad you had a great experience ! Your wedding was so beautiful and I loved being a part of it! Best wishes to you and Brian!!

    Amazing from beginning to end!

    Kelly was the most accommodating from day one that we met with her. I've been a part of several weddings and the biggest factor that went into our decision to choose a photographer is someone who not only was accommodating, but who understood our vision. I wanted very specific pictures the day of our wedding, and Kelly made sure that those photos happened. Kelly was so easy to work with because she didn't have a cut off time of having to leave the reception too early, or not being able to make it to our getting-ready spot early in the morning. We never had to worry about her missing a special moment, because she and her assistant were very detailed and stuck to a schedule. I cannot say enough great things about Kelly. This will not be the last time that we use Kelly's services!

    Look no further, you've found your photographer!

    Kelly was the first photographer my now husband and I met with when we began our search for a wedding photographer. We met with two more photographers after Kelly because we had already scheduled those meetings but deep down we knew our minds were already made up. Best decision ever!! Kelly has such a warm, friendly personality that you feel like you've known her for years after only a few minutes. She was super easy to communicate with from day one and was extremely accommodating when we had to postpone our wedding from May to October. Truth be told, we picked our new date based on Kelly's availability. She set our day of timeline and held us to it which made for a stress free day, we even had extra time to sit back and relax before the reception began. To top it all off, we got almost two thousand amazing pictures from our wedding day that we will cherish forever. I cannot recommend Kelly enough!

    Angela thank you so much for your sweet words! I loved being along side you both for this crazy year! Your wedding was absolutely gorgeous and I'm so glad you had a great experience!

    Absolutely wonderful to work with!

    Balsam and Blush photography was absolutely incredible to work with! Choosing Kelly as our photographer was the best vendor decision we made. Kelly was so willing to help and answer any questions we had, and she made our engagement and wedding planning process so enjoyable. Getting married during a pandemic is extremely difficult, but Kelly was so wonderful and accommodating to switch dates as well as photographing our intimate ceremony and our wedding! Her wedding package includes so many extra benefits that its worth having Balsam and Blush no matter what the price is! She is kind, caring, relaxed but professional, and the perfect person to spend your wedding day with. I’ve heard from many people that your photographer spends the most time with you on your wedding day so make sure you like them, and we loved working with Kelly! I highly recommend hiring Balsam and Blush Photography for any photography needs!

    A Picture Perfect Dainty Fairytale

    I really don't know where to begin with how amazing of a photographer Kelly is. Kelly captured our engagement pictures, postponement photo shoot, and of course our wedding day. Receiving over 1400 pictures, it's amazing how many of them were still picture perfect shots. With each of these events, friends and family were commenting about how beautiful they were and how they wanted more. Her blog posts offer a unique teaser that allows you to reminisce on the day with her take, but also see some sneak peaks of her work. Kelly has the most bubbly and contagious personality that my husband and I always felt comfortable shooting with her. The airiness and feminine features to her editing really makes all the photos look like a fairytale. I'd recommend Kelly a thousand times again and plan to use her for more shoots as our family grows in the future. You will not regret the decision to hire her!

    Balsam and Blush Photography's reply:

    😭 Leah these words mean the world to me! You and Brady had such an amazing and beautiful wedding which was certainly deserved after the year you went through. Thank you so much for trusting me to capture your memories! Your friends and family are lovely and I can’t wait to see you guys grow in years to come ! ❤️

    Best Day Ever

    If you are looking for a professional, open minded, helpful, and dedicated photographer for your wedding, look no further. From the beginning, Kelly was very responsive. The way she captures moments is incredible. We absolutely love our photos and we are so thankful for the wonderful experience. Our sunset photos are our favorite! Would highly recommend!!

    Kelly was our photographer for our engagement photos and summer wedding

    Kelly was amazing for our wedding and engagement photos. She was incredibly flexible. She even set up a meeting before hand to drive with me and look at all of the different spots I pictured for our wedding. Despite a rainy day, Kelly stayed calm and the photos came out beautiful. We had so much fun!

    Truly amazing photography, so fun to work with!

    Photography was so important to my husband and I for our wedding day. Kelly’s work is amazing. Her photos have such a glowing, bright, timeless feel if that’s what you’re looking for! She was extremely fun & easy to work with making sure you get exactly what you want in your photography. We’re very happy with how our pictures turned out- not to mention how quickly she got our photos back to us (within 2 weeks of the wedding). I would recommend her to anyone!

    Bringing the Fairytale to Fruition

    Balsam and Blush Photography is undoubtedly one of our favorite wedding vendor selections. From the beginning to the end of our planning process, Kelly was responsive, optimistic, and always willing to accommodate special requests. Balsam and Blush Photography truly went above and beyond for us in more ways than I can name. From wedding décor to furniture rentals – Kelly took the time to learn the special details of our wedding day and was determined to bring our vision to fruition. Balsam and Blush Photography remained in close contact after our special day and provided our wedding gallery in a very timely manner. Our pictures exceeded our expectations and is considered our most treasured investment. I never expected to gain a friendship out of our wedding photographer, but when you meet Kelly, I promise you will understand!

    Kelly was super accommodating even when we had to reschedule our engagement photo shoot a number of times due to rain. We had a pretty small schedule to work with and she worked really hard to fit into our schedule. She was professional and great to work with. She said to expect our pictures in two weeks, but had them back within three days. We couldn't be happier with the result. Would definitely recommend her to anyone who would ask. Thanks Kelly!

    We were more pleased with our whole experience than we ever thought was even possible. Every single one of our pictures turned out unbelievably gorgeous and with each one it brings back a cherished moment of our special day. Captured by Kelly Photography gave us a life time of precious memories that we can share with generations to come. We knew we wanted Kelly to capture our engagement and wedding photos before even meeting with her. After meeting with her we discovered her beautiful personality, energetic kindness and grace was just icing on the cake. Her talent, professionalism, creatively and energy were absolutely outstanding. We can’t wait for our next Captured by Kelly Photography shoot with more to follow for years to come.

    Kelly was incredible. And my photos couldnt have been any more perfect. She did EXACTLY what I asked.
    She is incredibly responsive
    She is passionate about capturing your day.
    She asked for a group of my inspiration photos so she knew what I wanted.
    She made an itinerary of the day and kept me on a schedule! Rather than someone who might just show up with a camera and go with the flow and not take charge
    She was willing to work with my crazy requests
    She had two shooters without a time limit on the day- so so so so important.
    My pictures were finished within 10 days after
    my wedding!!!!
    I had so many compliments on my photos. She is so worth every penny and i could not say enough good things about her.

    Kelly was absolutely amazing. She was so easy to work with and always super nice. My husband and I had a relatively large wedding party and Kelly was so calm and helpful when getting us all together for photos. We got our pictures back super fast and they were stunning. I couldn't have asked for a better photographer and we definitely recommend her services!

    Kelly was welcoming and warm from the first time we met her for our consultation. Leading up to our wedding, she was proactive, asking questions and getting to know our day-of timeline to be sure she was organized. Kelly woke up extra early for us to capture some shots from our morning run, something we wanted to do to shake the nerves! She and her husband bounced around between locations all day to ensure she caught our the special moments.

    The end result was beautiful! Kelly put the time and effort in to really capture the details of all our hard work in a creative way, sneaky shots of the cute flower girl & ring bearer, and some great candid's. She picked the perfect airy, bright lighting and laid back settings that were exactly what we asked for, and was sure to make us feel comfortable in front of the camera the entire time. She was so easy to work with! I would definitely recommend Kelly for any and all photography needs! We would pick her again in a heartbeat. Thank you again Kelly! :)

    Kelly (Captured by Kelly Photography) was absolutely phenomenal to work with. I knew from seeing her online portfolio that her work was beautiful, but our initial meeting with her sealed the deal - we wanted to have her capture our big day. She is so organized, professional, fun, and creative. She worked with me to understand our vision for the wedding and the photos show that. Kelly made a schedule for the day, was sure to include all the shots that were important to us, and kept the day moving. It was so much fun to have her and her creative abilities for all-day coverage on our wedding day. It was rainy and cold on the day of our barn wedding and the pictures are still GORGEOUS. Even in the rain, her vision shined.

    She provides beautiful photos and captures all the little candid shots you could ever hope for. I'm very grateful to have her photos as a lifetime memory of the wedding day. My mom and I handpicked every vendor, and I cannot recommend her enough. Kelly is top notch!

    Kelly was incredible to work with throughout the entire process. She made a point to get to know/ talk with my husband and I before the wedding to make sure we had a solid plan. She was very professional and extremely responsive, always answering my questions within a day or less. Day of, she and Scott helped our day run very smoothly. They captured the feel and energy of our wedding perfectly. I am still not sure how they captured so many great photos of us, our family, and friends. Highly, highly recommend Captured by Kelly Photography for any couple planning their wedding or special event!!
