the WEDDING
Experience

Specializing in romance, capturing unforgettable moments, and over delivering on customer service

Wedding Photographer in West Michigan

I define my style as a refined blend of timeless romance, editorial elegance, and genuine emotion, images that feel effortless yet intentional. Photographs that are beautifully composed without ever feeling stiff or over-posed. Capturing light, movement, and connection and creating photographs that feel alive and emotionally honest.

Documenting every moment of your wedding day, from the big, exciting moments you've spent hours getting ready for, to the joy you share when you both say I do, to all of the "real" moments in between.
I strive to create a wedding experience that is calm, detail-oriented, and serves your unique needs. With customizable wedding collections, you can be sure that every important detail to you will be covered.

Whether your'e planning a large celebration with hundreds of guests, or a small, intimate gathering with just your closest people, or adventuring to an amazing destination, I am thrilled to be there for you to and will strive to create an experience that exceeds your expectations.

Because your story is unlike any other.

I have learned through my experience working with many couples that no two weddings are alike. I offer both pre-made and completely custom photography packages to reflect your unique celebration. Together we can discuss what options best align with your wedding vision. Full pricing is shared upon inquiry.

If you're looking for exceptional portraits that fully embody the story and style of your vision, I'd love to work with you.

Working with a limited number of couples each year allows for a personal and approachable experience. I believe in kind-hearted communication, openness with expression, and approachability with your vision and values. This means getting to know my clients on a personal level, so I can help create a custom timeline with you, for your wedding day.

"We truly couldn’t have asked for a better photographer and couldn’t recommend her enough!"

“Kelly was really great to work with! We met her for the first time at our engagement session and instantly hit it off and felt so comfortable with her. She did a beautiful job taking both our engagement and wedding photos, and capturing our love. She also was SO helpful with our wedding timeline and was so gracious when I kept changing my mind on things. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better photographer and couldn’t recommend her enough!!"

"Hiring Kelly is one of the best decisions I made for my wedding day! I was drawn to her because of her portfolio - I loved her style of timeless, bright, fresh, and happy photography. Our package included an engagement session and a second shooter, Kelly’s daughter. Both of them were fantastic and brought such a kind and calming energy to our wedding experience. We loved our photos from the engagement session and were blown away by our wedding gallery. When we received it and started to look through the photos, we couldn’t find a single one we didn’t like which is so rare! Kelly did an amazing job capturing the details and highlights of our day. We are so excited to have our photos as lasting memories and are so grateful!"

"Kelly is the best! She captured our magical snowy day perfectly! Highly recommend!"
