Hey, I'm Kelsey! Thanks for being here! When I'm not behind the lens, you'll probably find me at my favorite sushi restaurant or hanging out at home with my husband & cats drinking a Starbucks Matcha Latte. You'll notice as soon as you meet me that height is something I'm lacking, but I promise that won't stop me from killin' it at your session. I started taking photography when I was a freshman in high school. My high school offered film photography & I immediately fell in love.

We looked around quite a bit before we went with Kelsey, and we're SO happy we did. From our first meeting, I was impressed by her clear communication, her calm demeanor, and her attention to detail. She was amazing day-of in keeping things running and pivoting when we needed to. We love how are photos turned out!

We can’t thank her enough for such an amazing wonderful experience.

I have a second home in Vail/Summit County, CO as well as Clearwater Beach/Tampa. This allows me to be local to multiple places and states! This career is so much more than just showing up and taking photos. It's emotion, it's detail, it's getting to know my clients and capturing each of them uniquely.

I don't even know where to begin - Dani is simply amazing and if it were possible to give her a 10 star rating, I would. She not only captured my husband and I's intimate mountain top elopement, but her and Jed also followed us through out the rest of the day and photographed our reception that we held with family and friends. We are usually pretty awkward in front of the camera, but they made us feel so comfortable (even at 5am in the morning lol) and our photos prove it. Dani puts so much work into finding the perfect elopement locations and the most flattering lighting. My husband and I are BEYOND ecstatic with how our photos turned out - she captured who we truly are and how much love we have for each other. I can never thank them enough for how much work they put into our elopement and reception day. We are so happy to have these memories forever.

Hi, I’m Bridget — but you can call me Bee, cause that’s what my friends call me! And since we’re basically already best friends, let me tell you a secret: taking pictures isn’t even the thing I love most about my job. Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m as obsessed with taking gorgeous, dripping-in-light photos that you’ll look back on for ages as much as the next photographer. But what I really love? Meeting the most kind-hearted people and getting to know them on a level much deeper than the typical client-photographer relationship.

Bridget made our wedding day an absolute dream! Her photography captured every moment with such magic and ease that trusting her with her photos felt as natural as breathing. Bridget’s shots are nothing short of extraordinary, each one so special and unique, it’s like stepping into a perfect movie poster that tells your love story. She and her team brought so much joy to the experience, we actually looked forward to taking more photos because it was so fun! Bridget’s warmth, professionalism, and unparalleled talent turned our special day into a lifetime memory. Your wedding day starts with you and your spouse, building your new family, and before you know it, you’ll want to capture more moments as your family grows with kids. Who do you call? Bridget, ASAP! She’s not just your wedding photographer, she’s your family photographer for life, starting on your special day. Simply put, Bridget is the Da Vinci of our time, creating timeless masterpieces with every click. Highly recommend!

I’m Alex, a wedding photographer with 10 years of experience. My approach blends classic elegance with a documentary style, capturing both posed and candid moments that reflect the authentic atmosphere of your wedding day. Whether it’s an intimate ceremony or a larger event, I’ve had the privilege of telling love stories through my lens. Clients appreciate my attention to detail and seamless process. From guiding you through natural poses to capturing spontaneous emotions, I ensure that every important moment is beautifully documented, creating a wedding album that you’ll treasure for years to come.

There’s quite a lot to say about Alex and his work. Firstly, Alex was right on schedule and even early awaiting us. He was fully prepared and had equipment that I was not even aware we had access to. He was incredibly kind and very patient. Upon request, he provided guidance and posing insight which was a big help for us who find ourselves awkward in front of a camera. He offered his professional advice and did us a curtesy which we appreciated. He utilized the full time capturing as much content as he could and the experience was amazing. The turnaround for the pictures and his availability were also great. We have gotten only compliments on the pictures and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a true professional. I can’t wait to have him capture more of our special moments.

Hey there, I'm Jordany Almonte, but you can call me "Jordan" – a friendly guy based in the state of New Jersey with a passion for life and a big heart for family. I take immense pride in being a devoted husband and a proud father; they are the driving force behind everything I do. To me, photography is more than just capturing images; it's a way of feeling, touching, and loving the world around me. What I capture in the film holds the essence of the moment, preserving memories that we can cherish forever. Those little things, often overlooked, can bring floods of emotions long after our other memories have faded.

Awarded Best of Zola
Margaret was better than I could’ve asked! Leading up to the day she was so easy to communicate with. She created a timeline for the day and any thoughts I had she took them into account and found a way to incorporate them into the plan. Truely felt like a team because of how kind and thoughtful she is. Get to the day, she was a calming presence for sure. She showed up with a smile on her face and seamlessly cued the bridesmaids and myself throughout. She was present but didn’t hover it was the perfect balance. Along with that she was my hype girl throughout it 3 Now let’s talk about the pictures, I’m not used to getting my picture taken and feel so uncomfortable being the center of attention but she tells you every detail you need, and if something doesn’t look right she’ll correct it gracefully in the moment. I felt like I got to enjoy my day without it feeling like a photoshoot. She delivered the pictures so fast!! A couple of my bridesmaids made comments about how fast the turnaround time was…and they were breathtaking!! Better than I ever could have imagined, I can’t stop looking at them. Not a moment was missed and due to her talent we have the most perfect picture to remind us of our special day for the rest of our lives. Do yourself a favor and book with her, worth every penny.
