Introduction: I'm a wedding and engagement photographer based in Charlottesville, VA. For two years, I apprenticed under two local high-end wedding photographers, to gain experience and knowledge as I grow my own business. In addition to photography, I also enjoy exploring the Blue Ridge Mountains, caring for my plants, and taking spin classes! My favorite thing about photography is capturing genuine emotion in my photos, and delivering that to my clients as a lifelong memory. I would love to have the privilege of working with you!

I booked Kelly for our engagement photos and could not be happier! My fiancé and I are both uncomfortable in front of the camera, but Kelly put us at ease, and the hour flew by. She knew exactly what poses to do and where to go for the best backdrops. I felt like we really maximized our time with her. And the photos in our sneak peek turned out great! I can't wait to see the rest of the pictures.

Kelly absolutely blew us away with our engagement photo shoot and we’re still buzzing. She made us feel very comfortable right off the bat and was our personal cheerleader. We appreciated her guidance in our poses and flexibility with locations and improvised shots. We would definitely use her again and recommend her to everyone!

Kelly was amazing to work with for our engagement shoot, and her pictures are gorgeous!! I was a little nervous because I know I can be a little awkward when posing for pictures, but she made it feel so effortless and made my fiancé and I feel so comfortable! She also sent our sneak peak photos so soon!! I couldn’t believe it. Lastly, she will do whatever she can to take the perfect picture! She hiked on our favorite hiking trail with us AND got in a creek with us to capture some super unique photos. Overall 10/10 experience!!!

If I could give more than five stars I would! Kelly is the absolute best! Kelly is professional, supportive, calm, yet assertive (needed with a large bridal party). She is absolutely everything we wanted in a wedding photographer and more. Kelly shot our engagement pictures as well as our wedding day. Both shoots were available for us within a very reasonable time which is great when you are anxious to see the result. The wedding photos are filed into categories which makes it very easy when downloading your favorites. We had way more wedding photos than we thought we would get which is a fantastic surprise. Kelly's photographs are soft, but also true to color which was exactly what we wanted. Kelly made us feel completely comfortable during photos and is so kind. She also worked super well with our other vendors (videographer, etc.). We absolutely love her work and are unbelievably thrilled that we chose her to be our wedding photographer. If you are considering using Kelly, do it! You will not be disappointed.
