Where to begin! Kelly was an absolute ROCK STAR. Starting with our consultation, check-in meetings, documentation, and of course the wedding day, she showed up every moment. Throug...
h the planning process she did a mix of phone calls, meeting, and written questions. I felt like I could express my wedding photography needs very clearly. She was also extremely encouraging to get me to think outside the box. I felt guided in the experience and I have such a warm feeling over the content we had covered. The absolute best part of her service was her ability to command crowds. Yes, the photos of me and my husband are amazing, but her ability to get EVERYONE ELSE together and focused was a service I did not know I needed. A moment that I keep remembering is when she said “hey Nikayla, you haven’t gotten a solo photo with your sister” and THANK GOODNESS she said that! Kelly, thank you from the bottom of Jack and my heart for capturing a night that we will never get to experience again.
Kelly is one the sweetest people ever and the most fun photographer! My fiancé and I were visiting friends in Boulder from Ohio and recently got engaged so I wanted pictures done i...
n CO. My friend referred me to Kelly and it was the best referral. Kelly stuck through a crazy wind storm to take our pictures and I can already tell I’m going to be obsessed with the pictures. She was so positive and never doubted her skills of making amazing photos even though it was super windy and my hair was crazy! Kelly is the best and such a sweet person!
SUCH an amazing photographer! Not only did she capture beautiful pictures of us, she was able to incorporate 3 very active dogs. This was my second time using Kelly, and once again...
she provided me with wonderful memories in a gorgeous location!
Kelly is fantastic!
Before our session she communicated with me every professionally and comprehensively - what to expect, when to arrive, cost, etc.. During our session she put ...
me at ease right away, recommended clothing as we went, and got quite a bit done in 30 minutes. It was clear at the outset that she's passionate and gifted about not just photography, but ensuring her clients receive the best kind of service. I can't recommend Kelly enough for whatever your photography needs are, and I'm beyond pleased I had the opportunity to work with her. She's great!!
Kelly was absolutely amazing in capturing our little family (including our tiny dog)! I had the most fun I've ever had in a photo shoot and the photos turned out amazing. Would abs...
olutely recommend Kelly and would book her services again in the future. Thanks again for everything Kelly!!
I cannot say enough good things about my photographer — I love this girl! I've used her for my engagement photos, boudoir session, and my wedding, and I will 100% be booking her fo...
r every single life event I can. Her work is absolutely stunning, and she truly knows what she’s doing behind the camera.
Not only are her photos consistently beautiful, but she also makes you feel incredibly important and genuinely heard throughout the process. As a teacher, I was also so grateful that she offered a discount — such a thoughtful and appreciated gesture!
She has a way of making you feel completely comfortable and confident, and that shows in the final product. I’m so thankful I found her, and I recommend her to everyone I know. She’s amazing!
We had such a great experience working with Kelly! The photos turned out beautifully, she’s lovely to work with, incredibly professional, and her platform made everything super eas...
y - communication, payment, photo tasters, etc. We’ve gotten so many compliments on the photos - would 100% recommend!
Kelly has been a wonderful photographer for my family over the past couple of years and has captured so many key moments in my life - engagement photos, maternity photos, newborn p...
hotos, one year cake smash photos, and family photos. Kelly always brings such a positive and happy vibe to our photo sessions and she knows exactly how to pose us to get the best and perfect shot. She is professional, fun, timely, skilled, and such a joy to work with. Our photos always come out beautifully and her editing style is just perfection. We love displaying her photos in family albums and as framed photos on our wall. We will continue to use Kelly as our go to photographer and already have our next session booked with her. I would 100% recommend Kelly to anyone looking for an amazing photographer to receive beautiful photos that truly capture authentic moments.
Kelly was absolutely amazing! She took our engagement photos at Rocky Mountain National Park. Neither of us are models by any means, but she was so great at making us feel comforta...
ble and natural. The weather was freezing and it was super windy, and you can't tell in our photos at all. Plus her pricing was very reasonable. I would definitely recommend her for any and all wedding/engagement related photography!
Far before our wedding day came, Kelly was already a fantastic communicator, providing a walk-through document that helped me outline my ideal flow for the day, going over any ques...
tions I had, and giving me great recommendations for when I didn't know what to do. When our wedding day came, I felt like we had an amazing plan and were completely on the same page! She guided me, the groom, our bridal party, and family seamlessly and with grace and patience. Having her there to capture our day made me feel so confident we were going to wind up with amazing photos -- and boy was that right! When we got our sneak peek back I was literally FLOORED. Our wedding photos look like they are straight out of my wedding Pinterest board and every time I look at them I think, "I can't BELIEVE these are from MY wedding!!!". Kelly is artsy, intentional, kind, patient, and excessively talented. If she is available for your date, book her while you can!!!!
Kelly cares deeply about capturing all the memories and experiences that will live forever through photography! 6 out of 5 stars.
Kelly is SO Amazing to work with!! She made me feel so comfortable in front of the camera- it was a breeze. I LOVE my pictures SO much!!!
Kelly will tackle any challenge with grace and enthusiasm. A photographer on your special day is more than a person taking pictures. With Kelly you get great pictures and a perso...
n you can work with no matter what.
We loved working with Kelly! The photos were beautifully done and really captured the feel of the occasion. We will continue to use Kelly for every occasion!
Kelly is by far my FAVORITE photographer I have ever worked with! I often feel overwhelmed when photographers just tell me to “act natural” and “I only shoot candids”— Kelly is EXC...
ELLENT at helping pose, capturing the most flattering angels and giving prompts for candid movements as well as classic portraits. She has such a great eye for her background and expertise at lighting and angles. What a joy to work with! I plan to use her every photo opportunity I have from now on!
