and never gave up on us. She traveled 7+ hours to Edisto and we are forever grateful. You WILL NOT regret booking with her.

otography skills are unmatched.

d always manages to make every photo she takes absolutely perfect! Her and her team and all so relaxed and professional that she really helps put everyone at ease. She also has no problem telling people how to pose which is super helpful when you and your family is awkward in front of the camera! I have loved working with her for all things wedding related and hope to continue working with her as we start a family! I would absolutely recommend Ridge and Ramble for all of your photography needs!

opping the photos are. We could not be happier or more impressed by her professionalism and skill. I genuinely don't think there's a photographer out there who could have done better. Thank you so much for making our day even more incredible!

us great information about shooting locations, restaurants, vendors, and a timeline for our special day. On the day of the wedding, Kelsey was flexible, personable, and the perfect hype woman for a couple who is typically camera shy. We received a preview gallery within 2 weeks of our elopement with amazing images and our whole gallery brought me to tears with the beauty and the moments she captured. We will treasure the photographs of our wedding forever.

phs aren't just photos; they really captured moments and elicited emotions. I wanted that - raw and real. Having no experience with wedding planning and only hearing about bad experiences, I braced myself. But Kelsey was AMAZING from the very beginning - she was so warm and kind. She really cared not just about the photography but she for me as well.  She was very keen on making this experience as special as she could. Constantly asking what my preferences were and checking in with me - but for someone who cannot articulate needs/wants very well, she was able to read me and understand. David and I have no sense of fashion so I had felt bad that Kelsey had to deal with our wardrobe, but yet again, Kelsey did an amazing job. She became our personal fashion advisor and put a few things together that still made us feel like ourselves. I can't even begin to tell you how uncomfortable/unnatural it felt, but I was so thankful for her. She was able to talk us through and pull out our true selves. She sent us a teaser the very next day - I was floored. I had never seen myself in that way in a photo before and I was so happy to been captured in something so magical. Literal magic.  After that, I began to look forward to our actual wedding photos. But then the pandemic happened and we weren't sure what we were going to do. We remained in touch as no one knew what was going to happen.. From the original planned wedding, delayed, canceled, court wedding, elopement, to our finally decided small intimate wedding, Kelsey was the absolute best - she accommodated, adjusted, and really just made everything easy. She was very flexible - and she did it all with kindness.  She even went before the wedding day to scope out the place and also arrived super early on the actual day to get herself familiar with everything. Honestly, she was beyond anything I could have wished for. She really understood what we wanted. I knew she was there but also forgot she was there - which is something that not a lot of people think about. She captured so many moments that were so brief but held so many emotions. She captured quiet and "unseen" moments. When I finally got through her gallery.. yeah, I still have no words. I couldn't believe that David, myself, our friends and family - the most not put together and unphotogenic people had become ... wow. When I look through the photos, the emotions and feelings come rushing back because she wasn't just taking a photo, she was preserving our spirit and love. Sounds so cheesy but her photos really elicit those sentiments.   Kelsey is absolutely phenomenal - not just as a photographer but a person too. She was such an amazing soul to have as a part of our team - for support, encouragement, and cheer. Despite the scorching heat, she did everything with a smile on her face and no complaints. Her communication is effective, efficient, personal, and caring. What I thought would feel prescriptive, calculated, and transactional... was anything but.  Spending time with her felt like being with a friend. She is absolute magic and the very best - cannot thank her enough. We will treasure these forever. I will always recommend Kelsey to anyone who wants a true professional to create a personal and truly special photography experience.

a but she made the entire session so effortless and fun! I actually found myself forgetting that I was having photos taken and was so wrapped up in the moment. All of our photos perfectly captured us as a couple. They were all so candid and natural looking as well as beautifully edited. She asked me what my vision was for our session and had such amazing recommendations for locations and even helped me choose my outfits to match the scenery. I will absolutely be using her for future photo shoots and I’m so happy I chose her to capture this special moment in our lives.

n our photographer but our friend. When I started to get stressed about my timeline and making sure I got all my photos, she not only took the time to help calm me down but took command and organized everyone to get all the photos I wanted and more. Her style is so unique and she perfectly mixes her style while still capturing the moments you want. I honestly couldn’t imagine working with anyone else and constantly recommend her to my friends and family.

ssion the evening before we exchanged vows instead of true elopement coverage the day of, but we were still absolutely blown away! Kelsey had recommendations for locations ready to go and time our session perfectly with the sunset in the Shenandoah mountains. She hiked a rock scramble for us to get breathtaking photos! Now that we have them back, I can’t stop looking at them. Ridge and Ramble is amazing!

I imagined and more. I would definitely recommend Ridge and Ramble for anyone's bid day!

f us (we never felt pressured to book). Fast forward to July 2020, we received some devastating news that my mother in law did not have much longer to live. We decided to head to SC and elope so she could be a part of this milestone. Before we left CO, I messaged Kelsey to see if she was available on our wedding day because I knew we would want someone to really capture all of those moments. This amazing woman rearranged her schedule and drove 16 hrs total to come photograph this bittersweet but beautiful day with only 1 weeks notice. My mother in law passed away a week and a half after our wedding and we're so grateful we hired Kelsey; she captured some beautiful, intimate, and candid moments but she also really captured how incredibly happy my mother in law was on our wedding day. Thank you, Kelsey.

e a degree in art. But the best part was working with Kelsey herself. Kelsey was such a delight to work with. She paid a great deal of attention to our needs and on the day of our she floored us with her people management skills. We had a large and very diverse group of guests with people from around the world and many faith traditions. Kelsey managed the people dynamics skillfully and in a way that looked effortless. I hope we have an opportunity to hire her in the future.

s portraying this process as utter madness. Consider this, and then consider how amazing, how truly wonderful it would be to book a photographer who can give you the peace of mind that comes with knowing the engagement photos will turn out perfect, the wedding photos will turn out perfect, and that in the photographer you may look forward to finding more than the hired help, but a lifelong friend. My friends, that is what you can not just look forward to, but can expect with complete confidence when booking Ridge and Ramble Photography, for Kelsey is truly a gem, a diamond in the rough, and an amazing photographer and friend. Thank you so much Kelsey!!
