About this vendor
My goals in life are to travel the world and adopt all of the dogs. Justin, my husband, and I traveled to Italy for our honeymoon. My bucket list of places is as long as I am tall. As for adopting all the dogs, we have two so far, Banner and Watson. I know it isn't practical to adopt ALL the dogs, but I want to do everything I can for animals in need. I am a caffeine addict. I honestly think I love coffee as much as a Gilmore! I am a believer, and thank God everyday for this wonderful life. He has led me down a path that allowed me to pursue my passion. As for what I do: I am a wedding photographer that loves to work with natural light and great people. I work in the Kansas City area, but I would love to travel to you!

Kelsey was the perfect photographer for our wedding! She was very responsive, professional, and fun. Not only did she take the best photos, she also helped with making our big day ...
run smoothly. Would highly recommend!
Outside of our venue & date, Kelsey was the first vendor I booked and most definitely the best choice I could have made for our wedding day. From the first time we met, she went ab...
ove and beyond for me and my husband! From laying in the wet grass to get the perfect shot during our engagement shoot, to providing a timeline and just overall support leading up to the big day, her and her husband have been priceless to us! And let's not forget the pictures - WOW. Amazing. I haven't even received my final gallery, but the pictures I have seen are outstanding! I can't wait to see the final gallery!
Kelsey did our family pictures and they turned out amazing! She knows just the right pose to put you in, even if you're a little camera shy. She's positive and encouraging when nee...
d, and not to mention she's great with the kiddos! She brought along props and candy for my 5 year old to enjoy when we got through some shots. Highly recommended!
I could not have asked for a better photographer for my wedding!!! I got married on the hottest day of 2017 and was ready to cancel some of the outside pictures due to being so hot...
. Kelsey found ways to keep my wedding party and myself cooled off and now the pictures I almost canceled are my absolute favorite!!!! She does more than just take beautiful pictures, she truly makes your special day an experience you’ll treasure forever!!!
Kelsey was fantastic to work with, she made sure my husband and I get comfortable when posing, and she was very responsive to messaging! Highly recommend!
FAIRY TALE DREAM!!!
September 29, 2018 was my absolute favorite day!! It started out rainy and overcast, but somehow the beautiful blue sky came out. The stars aligned for us!! ...
Kelsey captured us in the most stunning way. Each moment that she got of the entire day was spectacular. We will forever be able to relive our day with the amazing photo's.
Kelsey & Justin - that for your excellence!! You both are super humans with an endless amount of talent. We will forever be grateful for your LOVE!!!
I cannot say enough great things about Kelsey. She has been so sweet and so incredibly easy to work with. My fiance are originally from Missouri (and are getting married in Misso...
uri) but currently live in Seattle, WA. She and her husband flew out to Seattle to shoot our engagement photos and we had such a great time. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, I couldn't have chosen a better photographer. My wedding is in a few days and I can't wait to see what she will come up with for the photos. You will absolutely not regret hiring this talented lady for your photos!
Kelsey has been such a joy to work with! She has gone above and beyond to make sure i am overly prepared for everything from what to wear to my engagement shoot to how to streamlin...
e my timeline at my wedding. She and Justin were so flexible walking my fiance and i through all the steps of the engagement shoot. I was insistent to bring my dog along for some pictures. Justin even helped by holding his leash (while taking pictures) to ensure we weren't stressed by his barking when it wasn't time for him to be in the picture. Kelsey has been so much more than just a wedding photographer but has really helped me walk through each step of planning!
I got married on October 12, 2018 and it was beautiful! Even the rain couldn’t get in the way of this special day! It was cold, cloudy and wet but I was the happiest bride to be! K...
elsey had reassured me that everything will be okay, she had different options for taking photos if the rain became to heavy. Later on in the evening our photographer Kelsey showed us a few sneak peeks of the photos she has taken earlier that day (when it was raining out!) and OMG the photos looked amazing!!! We were looking forward to the full gallery and a few days later I relived my wedding day thru those photos Kelsey and Justin took! I couldn’t be happier with them! They are VERY professional, helpful, kind and funny. Kelsey is very sweet and I definitely recommend them, not only me but my family had a great experience with them!
(Wedding-September 22, 2018): 5 stars for sure! Kelsey and her amazing husband Justin did a fabulous job of capturing all the most important moments of Preston and I's wedding! Cou...
ldn't be more happy with how everything turned out! And Preston and I have made it two weeks as a happy married couple! 😊 #partytillthekoppsshowup
(5 yr anniversary) We had a great time with Kelsey doing our photo shoot, and highly recommend her photography! She is a kind soul, and did a fantastic job of capturing just the mo...
ments we were hoping for. Our photo gallery was full of pictures that had personal meaning to us and told our story perfectly! She was careful to help out with so many little things made it special. We had no trouble out in the pasture getting a few cattle to stand around us, and Kelsey was a trooper, watching her step as she got the best shots ever! She had all her gear close at hand, and worked quickly between shots. Jim and I were very happy with the service Kelsey provided, and would like to thank her for working with us! We have so many awesome pictures, it was hard for us to choose which ones to go with!

I found Kelsey through a coworker who just had some photos taken and I was already so impressed with how beautiful their photos turned out. I got some maternity photos set up right...
away and I couldn’t have had a better experience! She is so bubbly and sweet and made us feel very comfortable the whole session. To put the cherry on top, we got our pictures within days when we were expecting to have to wait a few weeks! The pictures are beyond words and I can’t wait to have her photograph our baby’s newborn photos once he finally gets here!
