Hi, I'm Kelly! Also known as Kel! I'm a 26 year old photographer with a love for storytelling through natural light, emotion, and honest moments. My passion for photography all started with my grandfather. He was the art director and photographer for the Chicago Magazine. He always inspired me to see the world in a creative way and encouraged me to continue pursuing my talent in photography. He would tell me "you have the eye, just learn the tricks to have the camera catch what you see!"

Some fun facts about me are that I'm obsessed with coffee, I watch Gilmore Girls daily, Autumn is my favorite season, I do reformer pilates weekly, my ideal weekend is exploring shops in a cute downtown after going to a local cafe, my favorite movies are Harry Potter and Pride & Prejudice, and in 2024 I got married to my best friend!

I'm the photo girl in my family, which means if anyone wants a photo of family, scenic views, moments, etc they have me take it. I guess taking photos has already been my job for years lol. I got my first camera in high school and would experiment with different ideas for photos. After I had a few years of experimenting, I realized I'm drawn to capturing people being their true genuine selves and turning those moments into something cinematic and real to tell their story. To me, photography isn't just about taking pictures; it's about creating moments that feel like scenes from your favorite film, the kind you can look back on and feel all over again.
