Photography that centers storytelling

wedding photography with soul

Storytelling over traditional posing


Your favourite photos aren't the posed ones. They're the candid photos you didn't realise someone was taking.


That's because they are real life. Real moments with the people you love. Why should you compromise on that for your wedding?

"We couldn’t have asked for a more incredible photographer than Kelly. From the moment she arrived, Kelly was part of the magic — calm, creative, and completely in tune with our vision. Kelly understood exactly what we wanted, capturing every detail of our Halloween–Autumn wedding with such artistry and care. Her love of horror movies matched ours perfectly, and the Freddy vs. Jason shoot will forever be one of our favourite memories from the day. Every photo tells a story, and we’re so grateful to have these stunning moments to treasure forever. Thank you again, Kelly!"

"I can not thank Kelly enough for the fantastic job she did capturing our special day.

My (now) Sister-in-law booked Kelly as her wedding present to us, and she could not have picked a more perfect photographer.

Kelly was wonderful the entire day, she is so so lovely which makes it easy to relax in front of the camera. She also blended in to the party really well so got lots of fantastic candid shots too!

looking through all the images they really tell the story of the day and she’s captured so many moments we didn’t see among our guests.

I really love Kelly’s alternative style, it’s given our photo’s that fairy-tale vibe that i adore!

Thank you so much Kelly!"

FAQ

How do I secure my wedding date?

Once you have decided I'm the right photographer, you sign a contract and pay 25% non-refundable booking fee to secure your wedding date. I cannot hold any dates until a booking fee is paid.

What if we are camera shy?

I specialise in camera shy couples! I won't make you do any editorial posing. Instead I will give you gentle directions to get some natural reactions and movement from you. It's way easier than it sounds! The rest of the time, you won't even know I'm taking photos.

How long does it take to get our photos?

My editing time is up to 4 weeks but you will receive some previews in 48 hours.

Do you offer albums or extras?

Yes! I offer albums, USB keepsake boxes, prints and more. Take a look at the dedicated pricing page for more information.
