"We loved working with Kelly!"
The session was a remarkable experience, exceeding all expectations. Initially hesitant about certain locations, she gradually became more open and comfortable, which was exciting to witness. Her confidence visibly grew throughout the day, making the experience even more rewarding. The highlight was undoubtedly the beach, which she found particularly thrilling and unlike anything experienced before.

"The intensity of her work is incredibly fun!"
The whole session was beautiful. Kelly's magic and professionalism for photography are unique and we would definitely like to repeat it again. A day with Kelly is absolutely amazing. The intensity of her work is incredibly fun, there are thousands of wonderful images never imagined. Her work is spectacular and professional and her sweetness makes her an exceptional photographer! Enjoying these moments created by Kelly with my daughter is something I will always remember.

"I was so scared,
but Kelly made me so comfortable!"
I was so scared because I’m not very photogenic, but Kelly helped me feel comfortable and I had such a great time ! I felt like I was a model for a day! I loved the beach. Sunsets are one of my favorite things, so getting to do my senior photos with the sunset and the moon was a really cool experience. The ending photos were so fun to take.

"I felt very confident during the session."
We couldn’t be more thrilled with the senior pictures Kelly captured for our daughter! Despite the freezing weather, Kelly made the entire experience seamless and dare I say fun! From the moment we arrived, Kelly put my daughter at ease with her warm personality and incredible energy. Not only does Kelly have an eye for stunning locations and perfect angles, but her creative direction was spot on, ensuring every shot was picture-perfect. If you’re looking for someone who can make magic happen regardless of the weather - because it was FREEZING the day of our shoot - Kelly is your go to! I know we will cherish the photos forever and are so grateful for such a wonderful experience. Highly recommend.

"Kelly exceeds expectations at every turn!"
YOU WILL NEVER REGRET BOOKING A SESSION WITH KELLY! My senior daughter spent the better part of the day with Kelly in St Augustine and at the beach. We loved every minute of the day. Kelly's passion comes through. She is a consummate pro and produces beautiful photos, but she also made my daughter feel so beautiful and confident and special. That is priceless to me! She has a great process to get to know what you want/expect and she exceeds that at every turn. BOOK IT!!!!!!!!

"It felt like we were just hanging with a friend."
We loved the relaxed feeling with the session. It felt like we were just hanging out with a friend and capturing genuine smiles and happy moments. Kelly spent time getting to know us and highlighting Madison to her fullest. Kelly was so informative and made sure she answered all of our questions including the ones we didn’t know we had. We felt very prepared for the whole process which made It amazing!

"She made Mia so comfortable!"
What was most obvious to me was how comfortable Kelleen made Mia feel right from the beginning of the shoot. Kelleen has a natural ease with teenagers and Mia's personality started to shine through just minutes after Kelleen started shooting. Mia commented that she felt like she was being photographed by a family member.What was most obvious to me was how comfortable Kelleen made Mia feel right from the beginning of the shoot.

Kelleen knew the best places to go given Mia's desire to be photographed in downtown St. Augustine and on the water in Vilano Beach. We ended the session just as the sun was setting on the pier across from Vilano Beach. She timed the day perfectly, had all the equipment and items we needed to capture great photos (even Mia’s favorite snacks), and was very upbeat and encouraging the whole day! I have watched Mia participate in other photo shoots during middle and high school, and this one was so special because of how much Kelleen truly cares

"We never felt like a number, it was so special for us."
We never feel like a number or just another client. We feel like you really care about the student and the family you are photographing. You spent so much time getting to know Bella's likes and dislikes and what she was "all about." I felt you were totally engaged from the moment we met online to the very last photo you took. It was like the student and family was inspiring you and that is a true gift! There was a perfect amount of photographer coaching and it really felt like a model shoot. Can't thank you enough for making this truly special for us!

Everything exceeded my expectations given a disinterested 18yo boy. You made him feel perfect just as himself and found ways to incorporate the essence of his individuality in a creative way that only a true artist can do. I loved feeling like you knew exactly how to get what we wanted when even we didn't know what that was. I was nervous about how it would go (more than I would like to admit) but within the first 20 min was at ease and confident we were capturing this pivotal phase in his life. Even better than that, having a son who pays precious little attention to wardrobe and doesn't like posing for pictures seemed to enjoy it as well.
Everything exceeded my expectations

her vivacious personality set my son at ease
Kelly met us bright and early, and we hit the ground running! Her vivacious personality instantly set my son at ease, and she knew just how to get him in model mode. We hit a variety of locations- some fun, some formal. Kelly had great ideas for locations. A very fun day, easy and a lot less stressful than I had anticipated!
-John's Mom
We felt very prepared
She made Ashton feel so comfortable while taking photos and it was the best part. A lot of boys feel like taking photos in general are a chore but Ashton had a ton of fun and could not wait to see the images. My son and I both felt very prepared, we received a lot of help on what outfits to choose, and location was discussed in great detail.

I CAN'T RECOMMEND KELLEEN ENOUGH FOR SENIOR PHOTOS!
I can't recommend KelleEn enough for Senior Photos! I think one of the most important things is the prep beforehand that she guides you through and sets everything up for success. Time invested in conversations so that we had a shared vision/goal and confidence that the few must haves were going to be captured allowed me to relax and not have to be in the driver's seat and just watch and assist. We arrived and Kelly surveyed the options, broke out her equipment like Inspector Gadget and went straight to work with lots of laughs and fun mixed in. Watching my senior follow instructions we breezed through it all easily stopping only to squirt a little bug spray and taking in the beautiful sky. I can't wait to see the memories that she captured for us! If you are on the fence, just jump!
