Kelly Costello Photography

try and do our engagement session as a HUGE storm was rolling through the area and then happily rescheduled when we inevitably got rained on. As for the big day, OH MY! I look through my wedding gallery from Kelly almost every week since I received it. Kelly and Ryan are so extremely talented and so clearly passionate about their work. AND they're a blast and genuinely nice and so caring. They made my husband and I feel comfortable and confident which says a lot because we are typically 2 awkward goofs when it comes to photos. I cannot recommend Kelly enough!

also takes a special quality to make a couple feel comfortable enough in front of the camera to truly capture the love and joy they express. Kelly and Ryan were so fun, easy, and professional to work with! I could not recommend Kelly enough and I will definitely be looking for any excuse to book Kelly again for any future life events!

he beginning of 2020, right before the pandemic hit the US, and at the time we had a set wedding date of July 2020. We took our photos in Houston and immediately clicked with them. They made the experience so comfortable and enjoyable, and the photos came out stunning, we ended up using one of them for our wedding invitations. Once we realized we wanted to postpone our wedding day until July of 2021, we reached out to Kelly and she was so understanding and empathetic to our concerns of wanting to keep our loved ones as safe as possible. I knew then I had made the best choice in hiring her for our wedding day. Fast forward to July 2021, Kelly and Ryan guided us and captured so many beautiful moments on our special day of us and our loved ones. It was a hot evening in Houston and they powered through it like absolute champs. They made our wedding day an unforgettable one! I still keep up with Kelly’s work through her Instagram page and am continuously blown away by the love and passion she has for her craft, her photos speak for themselves. Finding vendors for your wedding day can be overwhelming, but hiring Kelly Costello for our engagement and wedding photos was one of the best decisions we made, they are simply the BEST! I will forever treasure our photos and the experience we had working with them.

re the photos I really wanted, and some others I didn’t even expect. She worked well with our coordinator and other vendors to make sure I was in the right place at the right time, and that we had everything we needed. Thank you Kelly!!

ine for our wedding day to help us get started! Cannot say enough great things about Kelly. She is amazing!

delivered for both sessions are amazing! Hands down recommend Kelly!

16 months out to be exact!) and she was incredibly helpful when it came to vendors choices, day of suggestions, and even tips for being in front of a camera! They also photographed our engagement and bridal sessions. On the day of, Kelly and Ryan kept our nerves down and provided continual reassurance. They went above and beyond what we expected out of photographers and did far more than any other vendor (even our day of coordinators), all while keeping a smile on their faces. When we received our photos, our families were blown away with the quality of work, attention to detail, and how much they documented without us realizing. We are so blessed and thankful to have Kelly and Ryan photograph our big day, and look forward to reliving those special moments in the years to come!

involved and payed attention to every detail. My photos were so beautiful and she was just able to capture my perfect day forever. Kelly is super flexible and reliable when it came to my crazy busy schedule. I was so happy with everything she did and every picture. She is truly amazing.

rpassed all of our expectations! Her and Ryan's photos are STUNNING, they are so professional yet fun to work with and the photos were delivered right on schedule. Kelly was so detail oriented (which is crucial since wedding days are scheduled in 5 minute increments) but was never pushy or bossy. We both felt that she and Ryan truly cared about what we wanted and making the day as special as possible for us. I would recommend Kelly Costello Photography to everyone!

eally spent time with them. From our first Skype meeting, Kelly made my fiancé and I feel so comfortable. She is so sweet, funny and has a ton of professional experience with weddings. Our wedding was destination, in New Orleans and Kelly and Ryan did such a great job of scouting out a location for our photos before we got to the venue, as well as helping me with timelines, small details and corralling a large bridal party. Kelly made me feel so at ease, especially after our phone call about a week before the wedding when she was taking notes on who was who in the family, bridal party, etc. I was and still am in awe at how calm and collected she kept me throughout the craziness of wedding day. Having Ryan as her 2nd shooter was wonderful as he could hang out with the guys while they got ready and get pics there, while Kelly was with the girls. During the reception, anytime I would start to think, "oh, I want a photo of this." there one of them would be. Do yourself a favor and book Kelly + Ryan for your wedding. They truly are the best and from the sneak peeks I have received, I know our photos are going to be the best part from our day!

d makes being in front of the camera easy! Not only did we have the best experience working with Kelly and Ryan, but our friends, family, and guests all commented on how amazing they were. I can't imagine our wedding day without her!!

cess truly was a blessing! Her experience in this business is truly amazing and it shows. Each time we were around each other for a shoot, my husband and I were always super comfortable and felt like we had known Kelly and Ryan for years. They were able to capture so many amazing moments from our wedding day. Looking back at the pictures, I am so thankful we were able to work with them. They did such an amazing job with it and captured the beauty of the day. Kelly is also the best hype girl and will have you feeling like a rockstar!

from others, Kelly will capture everything, don't worry. I totally trusted that. And boy did they ever! They truly captured the whole day. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Kelly and Ryan were a pleasure to work with. And the photos are a huge blessing to our family! We couldn't have been more happy! The pictures are awesome!

d they became friends by the end of the week together. Now we have so many beautiful pictures to remember that week by for the rest of our lives.

g personality makes her incredibly easy and FUN to work with. She was able to bring out the best in me and in all of our guests. Everyone I spoke to at my wedding mentioned how lovely Kelly and Ryan (her awesome side-kick) were and what a great job they both did. There were quite a bit of moving parts on and before my wedding day, and Kelly did a fantastic job through all of it. Kelly's photos have a way of making a special day come to life, and I am so grateful I will have these to look back on and live through forever. Thank you Kelly and Ryan for capturing our special day. If you want to make your wedding photography dreams to come true, go with Kelly Costello!! <3

ly and Ryan were there, helping us in every way and never missed a moment behind the camera. Their photos are beautiful and timeless!

e perfect place so that our water-loving yellow lab could join in on the fun - without taking a swim! On the day of the wedding, she was organized, efficient, friendly, and mindful of the various family dynamics. Our family could NOT stop gushing over Kelly and Ryan after the wedding, saying how comfortable they felt in front of complete strangers. When we got out wedding album back (in 6 weeks!!!!), we were absolutely SPEECHLESS!!! The photos were a dream, and took us back to the best day of our entire lives. We are so grateful for Kelly and Ryan, and would highly recommend them to anyone who is considering this duo for their wedding. While children are not in our near future, I will definitely reach out to see if Kelly would consider doing maternity and/or family portraits for us - just so I have an excuse to have more of her photos!

d more. For starters, I knew NOTHING about wedding planning and was planning from MILES AND MILES away. Kelly literally helped with everything all the way down to "What getting ready outfits do you recommend?" She went over and beyond for me. She truly is such an amazing find and I am SO HAPPY with the images and I have only seen the sneak peaks. We also had a HUGE wedding party and tons of family. She knew how to wrangle everyone together, make them laugh, have fun but also capture the most amazing images. I truly am so happy and lucky to have had her as my photographer. Thanks Kelly for just making my wedding come to life. I can't thank you enough.

questions I had about wedding photography & more! She did an amazing job with my bridal portraits and our wedding photos are absolutely perfect. Kelly & Ryan are so friendly and outgoing - our wedding party & guests loved them as much as we did. Finding the perfect wedding photographer was SO important to us and we could not have found a better person to photograph our day. Thank you, Kelly!!

wonderful assistant Ryan) were ORGANIZED, responsive, kind, and so incredibly creative throughout my entire wedding planning process. They not only captured my wedding day perfectly, but provided me with a timeline for my entire wedding, which allowed me to feel at ease on the wedding day, knowing that all of the photos I wanted would be captured and none would be left out (not to mention that my husband and I had NO idea where to start with the timeline planning!). Kelly went out of her way to make my bridesmaids and me feel beautiful on the wedding day (all of my bridesmaids kept raving about how wonderful she was and how on-top-of-it she was with her photos). My husband loved getting to know Ryan as well and was super pleased with the photos that Ryan was able to capture of the men! Kelly and Ryan were definitely the best investment that I made in terms of vendors and I would (and will) recommend them to...literally everyone! My husband and I got our wedding photos back this week and cried because of how happy we were with them - They did not miss a single moment and Kelly edited them all perfectly. THANK YOU, Kelly and Ryan, for the best wedding photography experience!

ely perfect! I was so impressed. She made me feel so comfortable and was so prepared for any and every situation. Our wedding photos are absolutely amazing! My mother loved them as well, and she always gives me her honest opinion. Kelly and Ryan are extremely nice and professional and have such a great eye for what they do. They work with your personal style and really make the vision come to life. Of my whole wedding, Kelly Costello Photography was the BEST thing we invested in. Love!!

l comfortable and we still got to really be ourselves during the shoot and had a lot of fun during the process! Photos were delivered with good time and she even went back to edit some in black and white for a home project we have in mind, which is amazing because I didn't mention it originally. Kelly is so talented and really easy to work with and we could never say enough good things about her! 15/10 would recommend!

ront of a camera but she tells you exactly what to do and how to pose and takes all the stress away! She really thinks of everything and makes sure to get all the important photos you might want, and even the ones you probably wouldn’t think of! Our photos came out absolutely beautiful and we will treasure them forever. Kelly and Ryan captured our wedding day so beautifully. We feel like we completely got our money’s worth and more. I could not recommend her enough!
