From The Bride
“I can’t express my gratitude for Kelsy, enough! She flew all the way to a small little mountain town in Idaho to help capture our micro wedding, and she was incredible! Our vision became a dream with her help. So friendly, incredibly kind, and made me feel like I have known her for a long time! From blotting my happy tears away so my makeup didn’t mess up, capturing the most candid yet stunning moments of the day, and being adventurous with us. She’s the one you want by your side to help capture those special moments in life!
— Kirsten, Small Weddings Bride.
“Kelsy is the absolute best! So sweet, professional, understanding, and gets the shot! Cannot say enough kind words about her.”
— Andrea, Small Weddings Bride.
“She shot our backyard wedding this past weekend, and she already sent me multiple sneak peaks! Needless to say, they are gorgeous photos, I’m so excited to see the rest!”
-Natalie, Small Weddings Bride.
FAQ’s: Your Questions, Answered
I’m drawn to the kind of weddings that feel slow and intentional — where the day unfolds quietly, and every glance carries meaning.
The grain, the blur, the in-between — that’s where the story lives.
It’s not about perfect light or posed moments.
It’s about the hush before the vows, the way their hands find each other, the sound of laughter carried on mountain air.
A little imperfect. Deeply felt. Honest.
→ For the ones who believe love doesn’t need an audience — just presence.
