family photos rooted in the real, made to last

STORIED PHOTOS FOR EVERY FAMILY

CAPTURING

HONEST MOMENTS

My work blends the authenticity of your everyday life with the elegance of editorial storytelling, creating images that are both real and artful. I love collaborating with clients who embrace their unique style, weaving that into each session to add a touch of sophistication.

LET’S KEEP IT REAL

I’m just a simple midwestern girl, standing in front of a grassy field, asking you to trust me.

FOR THE ONES

who realize how quickly time flies and see value in documenting every stage of life.

  • Kelsey’s unique style and ability to photograph her subjects “in a natural moment” are both captivating and breathtaking. The unstaged photos leave you reliving the expressions and emotions she captures. She carefully researches and listens to her clients wishes and desires and then the surprises you with far more than you ever imagined. I highly recommend Kelsey not only for her unique skills but also for her wonderful spirit and pleasure to worth with.

  • We have been using Kelsey as a photographer for the last 7 years for various milestones, and we have never once been disappointed! She makes us feel so comfortable, which allows for very real/raw moments which are the best.

  • When thinking about how to perfectly preserve your big (or just little) life moments, it can be so overwhelming to choose a photographer. We were looking for someone who could strike the perfect balance between posed and capturing the small glances and smiles that make our relationship genuine. If this is what you’re looking for, then you’ve come to the right place. Kelsey has been with us for years and we couldn’t ask for a better person to walk along side us and capture our every day lives. She makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and somehow always makes every shot look perfect. We can’t recommend her enough and send all our friends and family her way.

  • Oh, man. Where do I begin with Kelsey?! First of all, her style and aesthetic is so dreamy. The laid back, real-life feel during her photo sessions truly take the stress out of it all. She was even open to my idea of doing a family session at a local donut shop, because why not?! I was originally referred to her when our usual photographer wasn’t available, and she had used Kelsey for her own pictures. That may be the ultimate compliment when a photographer chooses another photographer. You will not be disappointed with the overall experience with Kelsey 🤍

  • 10/10 fantastic! So easy to work with. Can’t wait to see the final product!
