Kelly did a great job connecting with my teen and making her feel comfortable. I saw some of the photos and they looked great. Waiting for the final edits but loved what I saw so far. Would definitely hire her again.

Kelly was an absolute professional from start to finish. Her personality made the entire session enjoyable, and she quickly understood our vision and brought it to life flawlessly. The turnaround time on our photos was impressively fast, and the quality exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend her services and look forward to working with her again for a family photo session.

Kelly was great! She communicated with me through the entire process. She was very professional and patient with our kids! Would recommend and will keep her in mind in the future.

We hired Kelly to capture our newborn photos/family photos for our first baby. Not only did Kelly deliver, she exceeded our expectations. Her artistic approach was exactly what we were looking for when looking to capture the candid moments in our home. The photo shoot was seamless and very professional. We highly recommend and will be using her for all our photo needs in the future.

The absolutely best experience possible!! Kelly was amazing from the first initial message, to quick picture turn around, and the best patience through some crazy weather!! We could not have asked for a better proposal!! Thank you times a million Kelly!

Kelly did a surprise engagement photo shoot for my fiancé and I. We absolutely loved the entire photo shoot we did. The photos came back in a very timely manner. Would definitely recommend!

Kelly was friendly, punctual and very knowledgeable. My daughter and I liked her right away. She shared some of the pictures with us as she was taking them and we enjoyed and appreciated that very much. We were super excited to receive the final photos and they were top notch! We loved them!! Worth the wait for sure!!

Kelly was great to work with. She listened to all my ideas for photo shots and if we couldn’t do the shot, she explained why and made another suggestion. Pictures turned out great!

Kelly did a wonderful job! She was very professional and was patient. We took several pictures until I found one with which I was finally pleased (although many turned out nicely). She had me try different stances and some different backgrounds as well. I appreciate that she took her time to make sure I was happy with her work. I also was pleased that she came out to my home with her portable studio, which made it easier for me to prepare for the photo shoot right after work. My photos turned out beautiful and I am definitely going to use them to build my professional brand and in the job search. I would highly recommend her services for a professional head shot or photo shoot

Kelly forgot which day my appointment was, so she was an hour late. She could have been more directional and paid attention to the light. She said that it was just the locations I picked, but she could of came with lighting equipment. She was nice, but not a good fit for what I was expecting.

Kelly was very responsive, timely on a tight deadline, and super flexible about a project that required two locations and needed more than two hours of travel time in between. She was prompt and easy to work with, especially since this project was in Ohio and I had to coordinate with her while being based in California. And the photos (a media/political stunt in the form of a moving billboard truck) turned out great and just as requested. Thanks, Kelly!

Kelly did an amazing job with our wedding photos and was so kind and easy to work with! She even had everything done in time for me to send some as a gift a couple weeks later.
