Kelly Kirksey Photography

If I could give Kelly above a 5 star rating, I absolutely would! She is THE photographer! I was ecstatic to have her as my wedding photographer on July 11. My husband and I have been blown away ever since we hired her. She took some beautiful engagement photos for us in Glacier park, helped with our day of timeline, helped with bumps on the day of, and took amazing photos for us on our wedding day. On the day of our wedding, she was straightforward and organized while still being so kind. She helped save our champagne toast at the reception by helping our wedding party serve champagne with her second photographer. She captured the most amazing moment when a plane did a fly-by during our first dance. Kelly also created a few beautiful photos to help us remember the moment by photoshopping my grandfather into them who passed away a few years ago. And to end it all, our sneak peak showed us just how wonderful her photography skills are because we are in love with our wedding photos (not that we doubted it before)! I would absolutely recommend Kelly to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. Not only will she take beautiful photos for you, but she will become a part of your family/friend group with how awesome she is. Thank you so much Kelly!!

It's hard to put into words just how talented and wonderful Kelly is. She did both our engagement and wedding photos and was so easy to work with throughout the whole wedding planning process. Kelly is an absolute professional. She is knowledgeable, organized, hilarious, a great communicator, and extremely talented. Her photos are phenomenal!! Kelly was able to put sneak peeks up the NIGHT of our wedding. So many people have come up to us and complimented on how gorgeous the wedding photos are. The day of the wedding, Kelly took charge with family photos and was so good at giving direction to everyone from our 2 year old flower girl, to our 90 year old grandma, and she still made it FUN. She is just so good at what she does. Her photos are breathtaking, but she's also just a wonderful human being who cares about her clients. She would text me to check in to see if I needed anything. She even had her husband bring her a curling wand in a mini hair emergency. She thinks of everything and makes the process so seamless, comfortable, and fun. I can't recommend Kelly enough!!! She's going to be our go-to photographer for family photos in the future. You'd be doing yourself a disservice by not having her as your photographer. Just do it.

This is a long read, but for someone that is so talented (Kelly) I didn't want to exclude any of my comments. Long story short, book Kelly! You will be SO happy!! I was interested in booking Kelly for our engagement and wedding photographer after visiting her website and watching the testimonial videos. Hearing the brides talk about how much fun they had and how comfortable Kelly made them feel was the "hook and line". The "sinker" was how quickly Kelly responded to my inquiry and how she wanted to arrange a time for us to meet in person. We lived in Bozeman at the time, so we skyped. The skype session was a great way to quickly get to know Kelly and ask questions. We are so extremely thankful we chose Kelly. Prior to my confirmation of hiring her she reached out to my top venue option to put a good word in for me. Upon hiring her, she continued to offer help and answer questions whenever I had them. I was so nervous for the engagement session because I felt I wasn't very photogenic, but Kelly made us feel comfortable and got us laughing and it was truly fun! AND we loved the pictures! She walked through making a timeline with us, which was incredibly detailed and helpful for the day of and to provide to other vendors. The week leading up to the wedding, Kelly was supportive and willing to help in ANY way. I had forgotten about flower girl flowers and she offered to de-stem and pull petals off roses for me, which I wouldn't let her do, but she still came up with another solution that worked out perfect! Great example of her dedication to make our day extremely special. The day of, she was one of many that made me feel like the most beautiful bride. She was patient, efficient and very fun. Her second photographer, Angela, and assistant, Gavin, were very professional, helpful, and fun to work with. We received so many compliments from guests and family members about this amazing team! Oh and the pictures! Don't even have words for how happy our whole day was captured! I will be forever grateful for the memories that Kelly captured! So happy with our choice! Please reach out if you have questions or want more info on this amazing photographer!

Kelly is truly one of a kind! She took the most amazing photos and I am so very happy with the results! I was planning my wedding in MT from out of town and she was so much help to me with great recommendations around town and working with our schedule when we made it in town. She really goes above and beyond and makes you feel so special. I LOVE LOVE LOVE all our photos and I would recommend Kelly to anyone and everyone.
