Hey there!! I am located in northeast South Dakota! I have been doing photography since 2016 and loving every minute of it! I am small town girl but love to travel any chance I get! Weddings are my absolute favorite, they drive my soul!! I would explain my style as bold, authentic, strong and moody! I’m not creating images where every little piece of it is conducted and posed. I just guide you in a way that gets you comfortable and lets you unfold. So I can capture you, your love, your story, just as it is.

β€œWe have worked with Keely, capturing special moments in our life for years now and every time we work with her we have so much fun! She does such an amazing job working with our children (and my husband haha) who aren't always super cooperative when it comes to pictures. The day of our wedding she was there on time and kept us that way all day. She was professional a d had great, creative ideas for one of a kind photos. She is absolutely amazing at capturing those little moments during a shoot that arent always planned but just fill your heart with Joy. We will Continue working with Keely for years to come.”

Jason "Snorlax" Cun is an all around photographer that currently resides in Los Angeles, California. He was raised in the heart of Los Angeles, where he found his calling in photography. He aims to capture the beauty of the world and the people in them. He has recently begun his travels around the U.S capturing the life of those within that city.

β€œJason was recommended to me by a family member, and to this day, I'm so grateful. Jason was so quick with communication. He responded and asked for details from the very beginning. He was easy to talk to. We ended up booking him for our engagement photos AND our wedding photos. Our engagement photo session was seamless. Jason was easy to work with and he made my (now) husband and I feel so comfortable. Photo sessions do NOT have to be awkward with Jason. He recommended the LA Arboretum and the Pasadena City Hall for our shoot and we couldn't have asked for any better location. Jason knew exactly where to go and what to do. When it came time for our wedding day, Jason and Mae (his second) were so nice. They did not rush us for any photoshoot. He had us take our time, take breathers, and helped us stress about one less thing during the day. We just got our photos back and they are downright GORGEOUS. I could not believe these were us. I am still amazed by it all. The turnover time was so quick as well. Again, communication was so easy with him. I HIGHLY recommend Jason as a photographer. We could not have asked for anyone better.”
