Kelly is such a warm person. I've known Kelly for a few years and worked with her at many weddings. We hired her to photograph our wedding based on that experience.
It was important to us that our photographer be someone who's personality wou...ld make us feel comfortable on our wedding day. My (now) husband and I are very anxious people and Kelly was so good with that. She knew everything to say, how to keep us on time without stressing us out, how to manage our families quickly and painlessly for family photos – all day she was great.
She finished the photos quickly and sent us a preview during the honeymoon. The photos are BEAUTIFUL. Her work is honestly brilliant. It's timeless & cinematic. Our day flew by and there were so many things/moments we missed. We spent months designing decor and I swear I blacked it out. I never thought the detail photos (photos of stuff like our candles, seating chart, etc) would matter to me but it was so great to see things like that which I barely noticed the day of the wedding. Her and our second photographer captured all of the guests enjoying themselves (not just existing), did many group photos, and just overall killed it.
Also, she's able to create a checklist and dismiss it when it's no longer suiting the couple/wedding...being able to pay that kind of attention to a couple on a wedding day, while also being focused on making great photos, is a rare skill. We are eternally grateful for Kelly and so happy we chose her to document our day.
