The Art of Ordinary Magic

The tiny curl of your newborn’s fingers.

The way your partner rests a hand on your belly.

The chaos of your family piled onto the couch.

These are the moments that shape life.

That’s what we’ll hold onto together.

A Portrait of Connection

Ordinary days, remembered as something extraordinary.

Each portrait unfolds differently, a rhythm all its own. I follow the threads of laughter, quiet, and closeness, shaping imagery that feels layered and alive. Imperfect in the most beautiful way. These are the moments you’ll hold onto long after the posed photos fade away.

“She was so interactive with my son and natural with photographing him. He loved showing her all of his toys, reading her books, and collecting sea shells together. I barely had to bribe him with candy!I will forever go to Kelley for any professional photography. Her talent is unmatched!”

Priscilla P.

“Her work is timeless, yet artistic in her own unique way.”

We’ve worked with Kelley for the last three years. We’ve done a variety of photo sessions with her ranging from a maternity boudoir, holiday photos, and most recently, a family maternity photo shoot. Kelley is simply amazing. I have always been uncomfortable in front of the camera. Kelley immediately puts me at ease. She blends serious photography skills with light-hearted candor and our shoots with her always feel relaxed and genuine. We even did a “mini-session” and with just 20 minutes to shoot, there was never any pressure. She knows kids and worked extremely well with our toddler. Our photos are always stunning and there’s no one we’d rather work with. We plan on keeping her for years to come!

We hired Kelley to help us capture the birth of our second daughter. I knew I wanted some modest stills of the entire birthing process but I was also interested in possibly getting a video created, too. We reached out to Kelley after doing a few other photography sessions together. Although she was new to the categories of birth and videography, she offered to do it all!
I received a few pictures instantly & got the entire video and more stills a little over a week later... yes, ONE week later. Every single image I received was perfectly edited & perfectly captured. The work she put in to our video to make it exactly as we dreamed... it just brought me to tears. She is always going to be our go-to photographer!

“Kelley is such a joy to work with. She communicates well, listens to your vision and takes charge of it! I trust her vision completely. On top of her phenomenal photography, she is an all around genuine human being who will put you at ease. I cannot recommend her enough!”

Tawny B.

“She has a very calming energy about her and it comes through in her dreamy photography.”
