    Great Experience

    My fiance and I wanted a creative engagement session and Kelly came with ideas for locations and we were really excited about her out-of-the-box ideas for poses. We didn't want to be cheesy or traditional and she totally listened to us and made sure we were happy with her interpretation. The pics turned out amazing and we will be recommending her to our family and friends!

    You are both the most adorable couple ever. Even though you aren't getting married until after you graduate in 2023...I hope we will be talking all over again about how fun your wedding album is!!!

    Incredible

    Kelly from Golden Hour Photography was incredible! She was so kind and fun to work with!! She was prompt, and so artistic with the natural backgrounds during our engagement photos!!! Typically my partner and I feel awkward in front of cameras but Kelly made us feel so comfortable and the photos she captured were stunning!! Can’t say enough good things about the experience!!!

    She's the Best!!!

    Kelly has a personality that makes you feel so relaxed. We were laughing throughout our entire session. She was super professional and her turnaround time with our engagement images was lightning fast! We were so shocked! She definitely underpromised and over delivered, best experience---would highly recommend.

    The Golden Hour Photography's reply:

    Thank you Gillian--I am so glad I was able to assist you after your original engagement session was cancelled due to Covid. If the timing had been right, I would have loved to have photographed your wedding, too--Best of Luck!

    Relaxed session captured our essence

    We had an amazing time with Kelly! She was super flexible about the location of our shoot, and hauled her gear farther than she would have probably preferred to meet us exactly where we wanted to have our photographs taken. She put us at ease with her humor and general demeanor, and helped pose us to get some great shots, and also captured a lot of candid images that really showed exactly who we are. The turnaround on the delivery of our album was way faster than expected, and we have so many worth printing that it was almost hard to narrow down the ones we wanted to frame. I'd recommend Kelly and The Golden Hour Photography to any friends, family members, or Internet Strangers looking for a photographer, and we'll definitely use her again to photograph our family as it grows.

    The Golden Hour Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much Julie & Jimmy! You are a beautiful couple and it was such a pleasure working with the both of you. It makes me so happy to know that you felt comfortable during your session and I am even more pleased to know that you have a volume of images that you will cherish forever!

    Wow! 10/10 recommend

    We had the pleasure of working with Kelly for recent portraits. We didn’t have a “vision” in mind of what we wanted these to look like, but our main focus was to capture our true selves. The staged, positioned, “cheesy” photos were something I feared but the moment we arrived at the shoot, Kelly put us at ease! Not only was she easy to talk to and understanding of our objectives, but she also shot the session in a way where the camera wasn’t even noticeable. It was just a casual conversation amongst friends all while she captured the essence of who we were…down to earth, relaxed, normal, people. These are photos that did not have a “theme”, they didn’t represent one moment over another…instead they represented us. Kelly was not only professional but guided us through some of the visions she had for the day and was also receptive to our feedback. She was enjoyable to be around and made, what could’ve been a long day of photos into a fun afternoon! I will be using Kelly for years to come for all family photos and would give her a 10/10 recommendation to anyone looking for her to capture their life moments!

    The Golden Hour Photography's reply:

    You are way too sweet Katie!! It was such a pleasure working with you and I can't wait to do it again soon!

    Wonderful experience for myself and my fiance.

    Kelly was very easy to work with, stayed in contact with us, and was great at capturing moments that we would have missed during the hustle of our wedding day. My now wife and I would highly recommend Kelly and the Golden Hour Photography to friends and family. Hope to have her as our photographer for future life events as well.

    Thank you so much Eddie! You and Sharyl were the picture-perfect couple on your wedding day--you made my job super-easy!!!

    Professional, talented and FUN!

    Shooting with Kelly of The Golden Hour Photography was absolutely fantastic! She was responsive and incredibly talented. It had been years since I did a boudoir shoot- Kelly made me feel relaxed and BEAUTIFUL, and the pictures…omg I couldn’t believe it was me! She has an incredible personality and we had so much fun shooting together. I could not recommend her more for any shoot you may need!

    Thank you so much Amanda! The best part of my job is working with amazing clients like you! Thank you for taking the leap and trusting me with such an intimate opportunity to collaborate with you on this gift for your partner
