This family session was so much fun! I love when clients have an imaginative idea and we can make it happen. Lovely family, lovely setting and just a delightful day together.

Hello, there!
I’m Kelly, a photographer from the Seattle area, and I do what I do because I truly love people and telling their story in photos.

Aside from my family and Jesus it’s all I’ve ever been passionate about. I love challenging my creativity behind the lens, and capturing the most unforgettable moments in people’s lives.

A few random facts about me:
*I always snack on popcorn. And the amount under the seat of my car is ridiculous.

*I only wear soft things. I realize it’s a little weird, but it shouldn’t be. Who wants to be itchy or scratchy??

*I am most likely looking like I might be headed to workout but am probably not. However I’m determined to do better after Christmas.

*My go-to life motto: Everything is more fun with a friend. Basically translated I do not require a great deal of alone time. In fact, I hate it.

So, that’s me in a quick highlight reel. Tell me about you in the comments!

Todays challenge? Figure out group indoor games to entertain 20 HS girls since the weather is not cooperating for volleyball outside. I’ve found a few but any ideas will be rewarded with kisses, hugs and high fives. 😘🙌😉

New fantastic backdrop (thank you so much @telicialee !!) + a good friend willing to come over and be my test subject equals for a pretty terrific day. Pretty excited to keep making magic with this piece of art.

My great second cousin sent me this photo of my Gram (on the left) the other day standing with her father & sister. I treasure this glimpse of her in her youth and wish so much to talk with her again and ask about a million questions. Where were you going? What was your dad like? Did anyone ever think you and Eleanor were twins? Photos are a gift you give the generations after you. They create connections you may never know about. It might seem like just another family or portrait session, but really it could be the bridge that crosses over years and reminds us to share the stories, ask the questions and allows us to feel the links that connect us even when they’re gone.

One of my greatest joys in life is the students turned friends from my years of teaching. I love so much that I’ve been able to watch these two meet, get married and grow a family that is absolutely lovely from the inside out. These smiling faces are the silver linings when the news is hard to watch and I just need visual encouragement. I count you @julianajohnson in my daily grateful list today! ❤️❤️

Alright fall, you win. Your light is lovely and warm evenings like this, with sweet expecting parents is exactly how I like to spend my time.

Both of my kids had special blankets when they were small. Or maybe they still do? 😉 I’m not telling. I love family photos that capture those elements of childhood that hold so many memories. Those treasured lovies are childhood innocence wrapped up in snuggle softness.
