I believe no moment is too small to celebrate, whether it's your high school graduation, your newborn baby, or just a plain old Tuesday with your little ones.

No matter how many years have passed, each shot will be an artful reminder of life’s most fleeting chapters. 

Capturing moments now,
evoking memories later.

Intuition plays a big roll in the way I approach and capture family and senior sessions. I find having a mix of candid documentary and more styled photography works best to honor the story of you as a family and the chapter of life you’re in.

I want every session with me to feel like a fun, relaxed activity led experience - so I can capture what feels the most like you. Photos that feel personal and reflect the honesty of your season are the ones that leave the longest heartfelt impression.  

my approach

Capturing Your Changing Seasons

Whether you just welcomed your baby into the world or your baby is going off to college every milestone moment deserves quality thoughtful photos. Photos that capture your essence at a moment in time will only ever grow in value, sentimentality and nostalgia over your life. 

Documenting your kids before they grow up too quickly is important, but whats even more important is documenting the raw emotions, connections and culture of your family.

Maternity & Newborn

Maternity and newborn sessions are designed to honor your beauty, power and strength as the mother of your growing family. To remember this fleeting chapter with an artfully curated gallery that will continue to grow in sentimentality as time, inevitably moves on.

Each session will include a questionnaire and PDF guide to help you get the most from this experience and to help me create your vision with intention and care.

"From the very first inquiry and throughout the whole planning process Kelsey was prompt with answering emails and such a pleasure to work with! Kelsey takes such incredibly natural and candid photos. We were so impressed with how she was able to capture so beautifully both the natural scenery from our wedding, and so many wonderful candid moments. She is attentive to your vision, responsive, and super kind. She did a great job of "keeping their distance" in a way that let us completely forget that there were cameras pointed at us all day, which I think allows for some really good shots. It was as if she was just hanging out with us and happened to have a camera that caught beautiful photos. This may sound extreme, but I mean it when I say booking Kelsey for my wedding day was the best decision about the day that I made. I guess picking the guy I married was a good decision too, but having Kelsey there to document the most important day of my life remains paramount."
