Kelley was INCREDIBLE!!! We could not have asked for a better photographer! Not only were her pictures FANTASTIC, but she helped in so many way to keep our day on schedule! She captured all the candid moments while also being extremely efficient with our family and standard wedding portraits that we wanted. Before our ceremony I had several dress malfunctions. Kelley came in and saved the day more times then once and fixed my dress. I cannot recommend her enough, she is truly one of a kind!!
Kelley was absolutely amazing! She not only takes incredible photos, but worked on our timeline and kept things going so smooth for our wedding day!
We had our engagement photos done and felt so comfortable with her, she helped me with outfits, and made it so much fun! She captured us perfectly!
Our wedding photos are breath taking and she got EVERYTHING! She also got a photo of every guest at the wedding as well without us having to ask! Our photos came back so quick we were shocked! We are so incredibly thankful for Kelley! BOOK HER!
Kelley captured our wedding day absolutely beautifully and she was incredible to work with. From start to finish, the meetings leading up to the wedding and then receiving the final album...we couldn't be happier. Kelley brings a level of fun and energy to her work that shows in her photos. My husband and I are both awkward when it comes to posed photos, but Kelley never made us feel that way and we looked natural in the moments captured throughout the day. We absolutely loved both our pre-photos that were more posed and our after-photos that were candid. She made sure we got all of the shots that we wanted and matched the energy of our crew (which can be a lot) to make the day absolutely incredible. We highly recommend Kelley!
Any questions?
We booked Kelley for a spring mini/leaving VA pics. She was quick to respond and flexible when we had to reschedule due to weather. During the shoot, she made us feel comfortable and relaxed. She was able to guide us throughout the shoot. The pictures came out amazing and we love them! Would absolutely recommend Kelley as a photographer :)
Kelley was an amazing photographer and we are so happy we hired her! From our initial meeting, to our engagement photos, to our wedding day, she was a perfect combination of professional and fun to work with. During our engagement shoot, she made us feel so comfortable and helped us to overcome the awkwardness of posing for photographs. We wanted to do a mix of serious and fun/silly photos, and she had great ideas for how we could do both. She took photos of us feeding each other croissants (to commemorate our first date at a bakery), did a black and white collage of us making silly faces, but also included all the typical romantic shots. She made us laugh, which resulted in photos with great, natural smiles. Likewise, on our wedding day, she made us feel comfortable and relaxed during all the portraits. She was a pro at organizing large groups of family members efficiently and effectively, and she captured many beautiful moments, both candid and posed.
Kelley's turn-around time for the photos was lightning-quick. She sent us preview photos within a few days of our wedding, and the rest of the photos followed within a week. We loved her editing style, which (at least in the case of our photos) leaned toward the bright and color-saturated. She also gave us some black and white photos, and some more moody, atmospheric ones.
We're so glad we went with her comprehensive package that included both engagement and wedding photos. We thought her pricing was very reasonable, especially considering the number of photos and amount of time she spent with us. She also brought a second shooter with her to the wedding, who did a great job as well. I can say without a doubt that Kelley was one of the best vendor choices we made, and I'm so glad we found her. She was always quick to respond to emails and texts, she was responsive to our wedding coordinator and other vendors, she was super fun to spend time with, and most importantly, our photos came out beautifully. I strongly recommend anyone considering her to hire her!! Thank you Kelley - you were amazing!
100% recommend Kelley Blake! I cannot say enough good things about Kelley. She’s talented, professional, fun, and really cares about capturing your special day! After reviewing her albums, I knew I wanted to have her as our wedding photographer because every picture had a spark, and energy that exudes beyond the picture itself. Her photos almost feel alive with vibrancy and movement. Immediately upon talking with her, I knew she’d be a great fit. She was excited to talk with me about my wedding and answered all my questions and concerns with direction and dedication. I think her photos speak for themselves, so I’d like to highlight how awesome Kelley was to actually work with. We did an engagement shoot with her before the wedding and it gave us a chance to get to know each other. My now husband can be a little shy in front of the camera, but Kelley’s energy and compassion made him feel completely comfortable. In our final pictures, you’d never know he was nervous, and on wedding day, his true goofy, sweet essence was completely captured. Kelley put me at ease right away when she arrived on my wedding day, as it was raining. She kept a positive attitude and said, it’s going to be a beautiful day no matter what! The bridesmaids, groomsmen and our family members all loved Kelley as well. She helped keep the day on schedule and had a solution for any problem that popped up. I found myself gravitating to her during the night as a calming presence. Working with Kelley was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She delivered a preview by the end of the weekend and our full album by our one-week anniversary. Kelley, and her amazing 2nd shooter Anna, captured so many amazing moments that transport us back to that day. Absolutely, without a doubt, hire Kelley Blake to photograph your wedding. You will not be disappointed in the photos or the experience of having her by your side!
We had the pleasure of having Kelley take our engagement photos, which exceeded our expectations. Therefore, we knew having her as our wedding photographer was going to be great. My husband and I are astounded by the photographs. She also gave us the album very quickly after the wedding, which is a huge plus. The wedding was such a blur, so it is extremely sentimental looking back at the pictures and moments that Kelley captured for us. You can truly feel the love and happiness through the photos of not only my husband and I, but our friends and loved ones.
Kelley is such an amazing photographer!! I am blessed to not only work with her on a professional level, yet also as a photographer for my family. She has a very special gift of making you feel comfortable, and confident during your special day. All of my clients adore her and I'm confident you will love working with her as well.
I cannot recommend Kelley enough!!! From our first conversation, I knew she was hearing and understanding my goals and vision for our wedding photos. Even better, she brought new perspective and ideas that I hadn’t thought of and those are the shots that ended up being our favorites. The absolute best part was that she sent our photos to a local wedding magazine and the bridal portrait she took of me was selected for the cover! It was the best surprise and I give the credit wholly to her for her vision and execution.
