Kevin Kelley Photography

nkful to have been able to work with him. His creativity and vision left me in awe when we saw our final prints. We loved his easy going nature and energy- it made taking photos so much less stressful! Our wedding photos came out absolutely beautiful and really showed our personalities...he truly captured our day. He's such a professional and really easy to work with- I cannot recommend him enough!

g when dealing with pandemic reorganizing for our wedding. Truly wonderful working with him!

ur engagement shoot, to our wedding day Kevin was professional, straight forward and easy to work with. On the day of the wedding, he struck that perfect balance of taking charge and getting us setup for fantastic set photos (which even included him climbing up a rock quarry at one point to get a great group shot) and then later in the evening when the dancing started he was ninja like in how he seemed to blend into the background, yet got amazing candid photos from all over the venue. In addition to that, Kevin was incredibly helpful and personable - he brought a crochet hook to help with the buttons on the back of my dress while getting ready and even helped me put my veil back in when it came off during one photo. Multiple family members told us how pleasant and professional he was throughout the day. We've looked through our wedding photos a dozen times and every time we come away saying how much we loved our photos and how we couldn't have been happier with our choice of photographer. Thank you Kevin!

the questions we had and was very organized day of. He made sure we got all the shots we wanted. He got a ton of great shots of us dancing and all the big moments of our day without being intrusive. He was never in the way but made sure he captured all the important moments! I would highly recommend Kevin!!

edding. He captured beautiful indoor and outdoor shots and was a great presence throughout the day. His calm, warm demeanor was exactly what we were looking for, and we are thrilled with the photos.

big into taking pictures of ourselves and I don't necessarily think we are photogenic (we didn't do an engagement shoot for this reason!), but Kevin managed to make us look great! We really didn't even know he was there - he wasn't pushy, and he blended into our wedding. The pictures he captured were a mixed of some staged shots and some candid pictures - both came out better than I could have imagined. As my mom puts it: his pictures tell a story of our day. Kevin is wonderfully talented, and he will not disappoint you. I am so grateful that we have his pictures to remember our wedding.

the day of the event, and I am so grateful that my husband and I were lucky enough to have him shoot our special day. Beyond being incredibly flexible, patient, and easygoing as we wrestled our wedding concept and schedule into shape (260+ people with a large bridal party in a tiny church and then my in-laws backyard), Kevin completely understood what we were looking for in our wedding photos and helped two very camera-shy individuals feel comfortable in front of the lens. He blended in seamlessly with my family and friends and truly captured the spirit of the day with beautiful portraits and candid shots. I can't stop looking at the photos and still have guests commenting on both how wonderful he was and how much they love the photos. If you’re getting married in Connecticut or the surrounding area, I highly recommend reaching out to Kevin the second you set your date!

ttitude made everything feel so stress free. He arrived early, smiled and laughed with us the whole time and was nothing but professional. I felt like he made sure he understood my husband and I, what makes our relationship unique and did his best to capture it. Throughout the wedding, he was my favorite photographer - in the midst of everything ensuring every smile, laugh and dance move was captured...no silly poses or cheesy shots...just raw emotion and love. Not booking Kevin will be the biggest mistake you make as a you plan your wedding. Thank you for everything, Kevin!

diately we wanted him as our photographer. In addition to our wedding photos, we also did an engagement session with him. It was so cold out the day of our engagement shoot, and he stuck through it with us and somehow managed to get amazing pictures. The weather on our wedding day also wasn’t ideal, and we had to really work around the rain in order to get pictures outside. Kevin was so flexible, calm, and made the entire experience so much easier. Our family, friends, and other guests of the wedding kept commenting how great he was as well. We just received our wedding photos back and we could not be happier!!!

my turn to tie the knot. Kevin has this amazing ability to capture not only the mood, but the unique personalities of everyone who was at our wedding -from the bridal party to the friends of friends! He is also amazingly talented at capturing love and emotion in candid and posed photos and we can't stop looking at them! His photos don't look staged at all and when i look through them,I remember exactly how I felt at that moment. Kevin also creates beautiful and artistic shots. We have one where we're holding bride/groom umbrellas and the way he worked the lighting came out beautifully. Our family can't stop talkibg about how nice they are! Our engagement photos and wedding album are everything we ever dreamed of and we can't thank him enough!! I can't wait to frame them and put them all over my house/office. Thanks Kevin!! :)

with Kevin and his second shooter on the day of our wedding! He is incredibly creative and will take your photos to the next level. We highly recommend Kevin for any event! We are so pleased with his amazing work! Thank you for all of your hard work, Kevin!

ng, attentive, and patient (even with a lot of little ones running around). We would highly recommend Kevin!

hout this journey - from wedding planning, to the day of, and then figuring out our album layout afterwards. I only have positive thoughts about our experience working together and I hope you are still in town whenever my sister gets married!

T phenomenal! Our engagement shoot was so much fun- it was never awkward or uncomfortable because Kevin makes everything flow perfectly, and he has the best sense of humor. His photos are absolutely stunning- compare his work to any other photographer and you will instantly recognize the difference. From our first meeting with him it was obvious that he has an incredible attention for detail and that he tailors his work to each individual couple. He is thoughtful, patient and he is a great communicator. He has an amazing eye for location and lighting, and it is so impressive to watch him work. We can't wait to work with him again on our wedding day and have so much peace of mind that our photos are in his hands! There is no reason to look elsewhere for your photography needs- you will not find this caliber of photographer anywhere else, nor someone this enjoyable to work with!

do more candid, documentary-style photography. Kevin had no problem working with the other photographer, and even coordinated with them beforehand. We got married out-of-state, and he was very understanding and reasonable about meeting up prior to the event and about travel charges (or lack thereof). We were married in Newport, RI - although if the wedding was in our proposed alternative locations of Boston, or New York, I still would have used KKP! He also suggested a bunch of vendors to work with in the area - including our videography team! All in all, Kevin is a consummate professional, with a great eye, and I would hire him again in an instant. Definitely work with Kevin Kelley Photography if you have the chance!

attentive, and likable, but his artistic talent is undeniable. All in all, a true professional! Every interaction with Kevin, from our initial meeting to the wedding day itself, was a delight! During our first meeting, it was evident that Kevin was organized, knowledgeable, and experienced. He answered all of our questions with ease. The morning of the wedding, Kevin and his assistant, Mike, spent hours shooting photos of my bridal party and me before the first-look. They captured many beautiful moments inconspicuously. They made us girls feel comfortable and at ease throughout the entirety of the morning. And, when it came to the first look, ceremony, portraits, and each significant moment during the reception, these were captured perfectly. My husband and I are in love with our photographs and our wedding album. We feel so fortunate to have hired Kevin. We'd make the same decision over again, and recommend him highly and unconditionally to others. -Erin and Jonathan

in all aspects of our wedding- from planning, to engagement photos, to communication leading up to the big day, taking pictures of what we wanted, and capturing the true happiness of our big day while blending in! We love our pics and think he was an extremely good value!! I would 100% recommend him to anyone!

as going to be particular about the photographer I chose to capture my day. I had met with other photographers, and I have had several bad experiences with them, when they find out that I am a photographer as well. I usually don't even bring it up. But, in talking to Kevin I mentioned it and his response was wonderful. Kevin seemed excited about it. We talked briefly about my experiences and his and went on with the rest of our meeting. When I walked away I knew that it would be Kevin to photograph my big day. That simple exchange along with a long list of other reasons is why I chose him. Kevin did an amazing job and am in love with all the moments he captured. Very professional all day, even with my rowdy bridesmaids and groomsmen. He even stepped in and handed things out when no one else was around to do it. But was completely out of the way at the same time. Kevin fit into our family that day and seamlessly captured what was THE best day of my life so far. I can not say enough amazing things about him. I would recommend him a million times to anyone that would listen. Thank you again.

t was necessary to ensure that the day was properly documented by the right photographer, and we were extremely picky. I am an artist and can’t stand cheesy or generic event photography: I expected a photographer who would have his or her own artistic vision. We were lucky enough to find Kevin Kelley in our current state, Connecticut, and were extremely impressed! Both the quality of his work and his professionalism put us at ease, and our worry (the one saying that somehow, our wedding pictures would be underwhelming or disappointing) completely evaporated. Then, because of complications with my father’s illness and treatment, we had to change the wedding location AND date, moving to a completely different venue in another state. Once the new location and day were set, we found out that we needed to move the wedding yet again, this time all the way to Florida! Since Kevin was in high demand, I exhaustively researched other options for professional wedding photographers, looking for a viable alternate in case our date ended up conflicting with another booking. I looked at SO MANY photographers. And I started getting worried again. And stressed. There were a lot of good photographers out there, but none of them were quite the same. I was terrified that I would have to settle for someone who was just “ok”…I didn’t want “fine,” “adequate” or anything else of the sort! I wanted the best. I was on the verge of a breakdown, but through an amazing stroke of luck our final date lined up with Kevin’s only available weekend, and we jumped at the chance to book him for our destination wedding. Even though Florida was a highly competitive market for wedding vendors of all sorts, we chose to import Kevin from Connecticut to photograph our wedding and don’t have an ounce of regret that we did! We were astonished at how he managed to calmly wrangle our relatives through both outdoor and indoor photo shoots, in very difficult light and weather conditions. People often rely on a portfolio to assess a photographer’s ability, but we learned that what really makes all those beautiful shots possible is a seasoned professional with amazing people skills. He scouted unusual locations for our daytime shoot that made it artistic and unique, and captured our sunset beach ceremony perfectly…our wedding photos are STUNNING. I know that there are a lot of options out there, but I am incredibly thankful that my husband and I were lucky enough to find Kevin. We can’t recommend him highly enough, and will be engaging his services for all our important moments from now on! Sincerely, Julia & Pat Murphy

ged to perfectly capture the night, the fun everyone had, and our true personalities through his photography. Phenomenal!

among the 50+ photographer websites I looked through. When we spoke for the first time, even on very short notice, he was super polite, professional, good-natured, very reasonable w our budget, and willing to do extra research into additional sites in the area. He struck us as hard-working and professional, yet someone nice and fun that we would be very comfortable with on our big day. The day of, he exceeded our (already high) expectations-- he was absolutely wonderful. Nice, calm, fun, blended in, self-sufficient, and there for every single moment we wanted captured. Even for the getting ready pictures, he blended right in w my best friends being part of the supportive, calming, and fun environment without adding any stress. His ideas for shots ranged from classic, elegant, romantic, sweet, fun and playful-- all very natural and beautiful. After the wedding he kept us posted on his (very efficient) timeline, and sent us the completed products w a lovely note and candy-- very like him to add a sweet personal touch. The photos just AMAZED us. His work w the colors, lighting, people's expressions, his ability to capture all the happiness of the moment in just one shot is just incredible. We had an amazing day and thanks to Kevin, we have the ability to look through beautiful photos and relive each moment all over again. We absolutely recommend him with no reservations.

aptured without us even knowing he was there! He guided us and our guests through our portraits, keeping things rolling smoothly while making us feel comfortable. We can't stop looking through our photos and can’t wait to make our wedding album!

onal, flexible and talented! I have and continue to recommend him to anyone who wants beautiful photos for their wedding day!

nal, and we really enjoyed having him with us on our wedding day. Our guests and bridal party were calling him by name and he knew exactly when to step in and catch just the right shot and also when to stand back and blend in with the crowd. He made us feel comfortable, as if a long time friend was taking our picture. Our pictures came back and they are breathtaking, candid, and have a fairytale feel to them. We can't say enough about how wonderful and easy Kevin was to work with. We are truly grateful to Kevin for the whole experience.

dding photos! We definitely plan to stick with Kevin for our family photography in the future. I highly recommend his great work!

courteous and always concerned with our happiness. We had to re-schedule our engagement session a couple of times due to inclement weather, and Kevin was so responsive and flexible to make sure that we picked the best day to get the best shots. On our wedding day, he was one of the first vendors to arrive and by the end of the day, felt like family. His calm demeanor and his second shooter, Joel Callaway's upbeat personality kept us laughing and stress-free the whole day! His photojournalistic style and eye for detail produced the most beautiful wedding mementos my husband and I will cherish through the years! We loved his finished product and personality so much, we now use his photographic services for our kitchen remodeling business! Highly recommended without a doubt!!!!!

d he didn’t pressure us. He answered all of our questions and even offered us answers to questions we hadn’t thought of. Kevin wasn’t trying to hide anything and wanted to make us feel as comfortable as possible. On our wedding day, it felt like Kevin was our best friend and that we had known him forever. He captured the small details, the big details, and everything in between. He was all over the place, sometimes with a camera in each hand capturing every moment. He had an awesome assistant who was able to capture different angles that Kevin couldn’t get to. When we got our online proofs with all of the photos, it was like our wedding day all over again. Words can’t express how great they came out – the angles, the shots, the art that was considered when taking them – it was unbelievable. When we shared it with our family and friends, profile pictures and cover photos started changing faster than you can imagine. Kevin didn’t just make sure to capture us in a great light – he made sure to capture just about every guest there in a great light and it showed. When we got the pictures in the mail, we were extremely impressed with the packaging. Pictures came in boxes that were nicely put together and a very personal and touching handwritten note from Kevin was included. To top it off, chocolates were included! There simply isn’t a better photographer out there. We guarantee you 100% that you will not be disappointed with Kevin as your photographer. After the wedding is all said and done, all you have left is pictures. Kevin will make sure that memory lasts for your entire life as he truly captured every moment of our wedding!

kes every picture so unique to any other. I have seen photo's of many weddings and must say, Kevin is clearly outstanding and takes pride in his work. What I also loved about Kevin is we never saw him. He captured the best pictures when we didnt even know it. Our ceremony took place on the beach and they way he captured the sun and clouds was astonishing. I am so thankful we chose Kevin. He is the one that has given us beautiful memories to look at for the rest of our life.

s just as much excited to work with us as we were to work with him! The morning of our wedding rained, but he was standing out in the rain getting awesome shots of me coming out of my house, getting into the limo, etc. He has an eye for photos, our guests came to us after the wedding with nothing but awesome things to say about Kevin, he blended in with the crowd and was never ever in the way, BUT somehow he was always on top of an awesome shot! he is the best and I recommend him to everyone I know that is getting married! Thank Kevin you are truly the BEST AROUND!
